Joleon Lescott - GONE

[kieron]

Did you see the quote tweet yourself on his feed?

I really, really can't see even the dumbest of footballer posting something like that.

Calling Lescott a footballer was a bit uncalled for.

The car is still there but this one was deleted is what folks are saying. As I never saw it I can't verify if it was ever up.

Now I never saw this one so don't know for sure it's true. It seems far too stupid and crass even for a footballer to post.

The car's still there but can't see this. Maybe faked?

The thing that makes me think this is a fake is that the time (5:06) is the time of the car picture tweet. There's no time for any abuse to happen in between the car tweet and this one. Therefore I call bullshit on this bit. Doesn't excuse the car though.

I don't understand this twittering

[Pat McMahon]

Surely surely surely he cannot genuinely have posted this? I really hope these are fake posts because if they are genuine he has outdone Steve Hodge

[PaulWinch again]

God almighty.

nicholl evans mcnaught McGrath melberg  ehiogu teale ,hope he bumps into this lot in the corridors of VP sometime soon
if not just sack the twt

He doesn't deserve being mentioned in the same breath as those

I don't think the get stuffed bit is real. The car maybe but not the first bit

[Bad English]

The car one is on his Twitter account as has been said. Maybe it was Grealish or Richards who got hold of his phone and posted it but it is/was on there. I clicked on it to check ;-)

So we have one Villa fan playing his heart out at The Emirates and another Villa fan not playing his heart out at Villa Park. Its hard to take in.

The get stuffed tweet is there but in replies to Lescott, so that might be fake I suppose. The picture and his performance speaks a thousand words though.

[PeterWithesShin]

To be clear, the car one is genuine and is still up on his verified account https://twitter.com/JoleonLescott

The "count my money" one may well be fake as I never saw it up on his account and haven't seen anyone else I trust say it was either.

The car tweet is timed 9.06 AM so providing the other one is false I don't see much wrong here.

The telling part, if the tweets are not fake, is that everything he has is status based and unreal.  When a normal, well adjusted man goes home he would say "to my marvellous wife"  not that she is a "model".  Likewise he refers to his "big house" not his "fine comfortable home" and his "cars" as though he can drive them several at a time.  Then "count his money" like Ebeneezer Scrooge prising up the floorboards to count his hoard.  Thick footballer tries to put down his betters.
