A football club has had to delete an “official” Twitter account after it labelled fans “a***hole w*****s”.
Blackpool FC have binned the account, @CommercialBFC, after the Tweet was shared online.
The account’s main purpose was to update fans with commercial activities.
However, on this occasion, after a fan made a comment about the state of the pitch at Bloomfield Road, the account user became embroiled in an argument.
Speaking in an official statement, released on the verified club account, the club said: “The club has been made aware of comments emanating from a Twitter account overnight that has previously advertised commercial opportunities.
“This account has not been utilised for promotional purposes by the club for some time and is not accessible to any current employees.
“The club does not condone the views expressed and has since had this account removed.”
