    Due to personal abuse about her looks.

    What a fecking disgrace. What has she ever done to deserve that?? Honest, hardworking lass who gives her all and is good at what she does. Just because she's not a supermodel people think they can give her abuse. Pathetic.

    Bit oversensitive of her to be honest. All she had to do was block the idiots from sending her messages and then the much larger majority of people who appreciate her could continue to read her tweets.

    Why should she? Probably thinks it is not worth the grief. Can't say I blame her. There are some proper saddos out there. She seems like a lovely lass.

    closing her account is just letting them win, grow a thicker skin and rise above it. no doubt if she doesnt win gold now it will be all down to the bullying. yawn!

    Can't see her doing that. She has a bit of integrity.

    Letting them win? It's not a game. It's only a twitter account, like I say she probably thinks it is not worth the grief and hassle.

    Re: Shame

    Anybody who has a twitter account is open to abuse by nutters. In the past, sportsmen also got abuse but at least the abuser had to find some paper, write on it, find an envelope and a stamp, and go to the post box. Today with such accounts as twitter, you are in fact, inviting abuse.

    Re: Shame

    Twitter is just celebrity stalking, if 'celebrities' go on then they are just inviting abuse whether thats right or wrong then thats another thing.

    The point is still valid though.
