    Not a clue as only just come across it however is it a case you can’t have an opinion without it being positive? What is going on at our club ffs for it to come to this.

    Not sure, but having an opinion shouldn't result in a ban

    Seriously. If you think that without knowing the reason. why Jump the gun. A criticism without knowing the reason is quite silly, don't you think.
    For example fans abuse owners. That's ok then.
    If owners abuse fans the twatter media would be in meltdown.
    As for can't have an opinion without being positive.
    You must not visit the BBS often.

    On face value I would agree, but it does depend on what he actually said.

    Well, I've just had a nosy on his twitter and can't see anything ban worthy. Needs to stop using the M word though .

    Wonder if he's said something out of turn to Julie Anne Quay on twitter but there needs to be some more context to this. He's denying on twitter that he's said anything too critical.

    This Twitter link tells us nothing at all. I think I’d want more info - or even any info - before forming an opinion.

    Telling everyone he's been banned for having an opinion, but conveniently leaving out what that 'opinion' was.

    Yeah that's not the case though. Just look back through his timeline. As part of the the FA action plan the club will no longer tolerate online abuse. Look at the website under policies at the social media one. I believe that is why he has been banned (after a whole bunch of complaints to BFC). Abusing club staff and fellow fans isnt going to be tolerated anymore.

    Yes, I’m sure the club is in a position to turn fans away for no good reason.

    I hope his opinion wasn’t regarding Beevor Court.
