Interesting point, it's a very complex issue, some of the finest brains in the country would struggle to analyse it.

Speaking as a 100% non participant in the crap social media, is anyone seriously saying that millionaire footballers actually look at social media to read what idiots are saying? The grounds are closed so nobody is influencing players.
I’ve seen it mentioned that not being able to see James live at Goodson is the punishment for shouting abuse at Lukaku
I couldn’t possibly comment on the veracity of this view

Well a millionaire footballer has literally just said it??
Talking of negativity affecting the players. Just hope to god none of them venture in here - https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/...away-derby-drought.112044/page-3#post-8515670
Ill have a go as much as the next person on here or when im watching on tv. I wouldnt do it at the match and I would never go on social media and abuse players, or anyone for that matter - its disgraceful and I dont know what type of person would do that. The old if you dont have anything nice to say, say nothing at all.
How people think telling players they hate them, to get out of our club etc is going to help them play better ill never know

If I agreed with you, we’d both be wrong.
Of course they read it, sure didn't Delph challenge someone on social media to a straightener last season, the guy turned up at FF the next day and no sign of Delph.
If I was playing in Everton’s first team the last thing I would do is be on social media posting or reading.
Man management is required. Different people respond in different ways. It’s up to the manager to make sure players reach their potential. Some need encouragement, others need guidance and coaching, some need shouting at. One size does not fit all.

I’m starting to think that eventually you will have to provide your real identify to use the likes of Twitter in the future. The morons will claim it’s government surveillance, of course.

It's the old 'if you have nothing to hide, what's the problem?' If there was real accountability it would make lots think twice before spewing hate.

Every set of fans has blurts like but some people make out its just Everton fans.
Twitter is just a grim place, full of absolute weirdos who spend the days putting others down.

I can’t believe that you already don’t have to on a platform where you can broadcast your views freely to millions of people.
*I realise the irony I’m posting this from the anonymity of an account on a football forum. But would happily do it here as well if required.

I personally don’t usually agree with this sentiment regarding the idea of government surveillance, but I wouldn’t berate them for changing policy on this after what’s been happening.
It must have been suggested to the likes of Twitter and Facebook by the relevant authorities. There is absolutely no accountability at present, and nothing stops a person from making a new email address and Twitter account 5 minutes after they’ve been banned. This is what happens and will continue to happen if they go ahead with their feeble plans to combat the abuse.
I see no other outcome than formal identification. Not that I’d like it.
