He shouldn't post anti gay Tweets, but i agree with the club, he did it when still teenager and has since apologised. That should be the end of it.

Let's back Shane. #campShane

I’m sure CH is managing him closely and let’s bope he is learning how to behave from the likes of Bruno and Liam. He’s a loose cannon and under the media spotlight.

I f*cking detest this new form of “journalism”. Trawl through a famous persons tweets from when they were a stupid teenager with no filter/common sense. Find anything that can be twisted in to homophobic, racist or xenophobic abuse and then package it off as news when; in reality, it's absolutely f*cking meaningless tripe.

I would say they’re scraping the bottom of the barrel, but they’re not. They’ve actually broken through the bottom and are now tunnelling straight to the earths core at a rate of knots.

Blimey I hope, for your sake, you aren't held to account for some of your teenage rambling.

BBC1 South East TV news went to town on this tonight. Peter Tatchell was interviewed and is outraged.

No one would be the slightest interested in my past!!

I’m more worried about what he might do rather than what he has done many years ago.

Just goes to show,Twatter is for twits. :lolol:

well before anyone gets outraged on my behalf (gay man here), this is from 2011 when he was a teenager. I am not offended, outraged or suffering from PTSD because of some juvenile tweets by a not very sharp footballer. And I also think Rylan shouldn't be on TV, not because of his sexuality but because of his complete lack of talent . I am fed up with people telling ME what I should be outraged about, I am quite capable of making up my own mind and don't need anyone to do it for me. I cant believe there is a single person who hasn't posted, said, something which years later couldn't be hauled up as offensive to someone. Why do we need people going back over years worth of posts trying to find something to make a "news story" out of when there are plenty of things happening now that are much more important

Is that Peter Tatchell, the same one who campaigns to lower the age of consent to 14?

You can't talk sense on NSC-if the moderators see,it's an infraction straightaway.

Unfortunately that's the world we live in, there are hundreds of thousands of people queued up to be outraged on your behalf. Some of them on this forum.

I didn't know what the **** I was talking about when I was that age, not entirely sure I do now.

Ninja Elephant · May 22, 2018

Total non-story, stupid comments but hardly the end of the world and certainly nothing to worry about all these years later.

You can't worry about what someone "might do"

beorhthelm · May 22, 2018

you'd have thought Tatchell might have checked on the story before offering his opinion.
