Yes I'm surprised that the etoro sponsorship hasn't been questioned.

They are an agressive spread betting firm. This link up makes me feel slightly uneasy.

Same. Especially as they boast you can 'trade and invest' in cryptocurrencies.

And this is from the home page of their own website www.etoro.com

'CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 76% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work, and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.

Are the club really THAT desperate for sponsors? ???

What is going on with all the cringe worthy emojis on every post ?

Stuffed by the second bottom team yesterday and all the Twitter updates have hearts / flowers / stars etc .... It's embarrassing.

Surely the marketing department have some kind of handle on who the target audience is or is this just a wind up ?!

It's all part of the dumbing-down of human discourse I'm afraid, taking us back almost to a pre-literate society. Tweets with emojis are little more than people communicating by grunts and gestures. Live with it.

Given his "performance" on here in the early days, I'm sure the OP is an expert in dumbing down human discourse.

The only embarrassment on our Twitter feed was our half-time arrogant, over-confident tweet of 'As first halves go...' When I read it, I thought 'hope that doesn't come back to haunt us'.

Sure enough...

I agree. Emojis are fine, but spare us the hearts and flowers.

I understand that they want to tweak the club's 'tone of voice' for different media, but the Twitter feed has gone too far. Maybe they have a new intern?

The worst instance was when they tweeted something like "Who's looking forward to seeing this one on Saturday" next to a photo of, I think, Shane Duffy.

This one. Ugh.
