The snobbery on there and Facebook about The Fishy always strikes me as odd as they're hardly hotbeds of intellectual debate themselves.

The snobbery on there and Facebook about The Fishy always strikes me as odd as they're hardly hotbeds of intellectual debate themselves. Agree. There are a fair few whoppers on there too who think nothing of sending direct criticism and abuse to GTFC staff, often badly spelled and unhinged, so the idea that there would be some of the Twittersphere who would sneer at, and look down upon the fishy is clearly just daft.

I think the 'inferior' thing is just a little fun stemming from some of the more, shall we say, 'interesting' posters and rumours we've had on here over the years. Probably done it myself in jest but still find myself on here far too much as i enjoy the discussions and "humour" ... All Town aren’t we @GTFCLondon

Guest User	I’m on both. There are far more mouth breathers on Twitter these days. Two accounts in particular relating to Mendoncas legs, suspiciously looking like they’ve been set up by the same person , tweet opposite opinions about everything GTFC related.

Approval: +7,279 Gold Stars: 306	This is classic human behaviour: the group I belong to is best and members of other groups are idiots (or whatever). It fuels football rivalry, political views, religion and the darker traits of human behaviour like racism and hating minorities. Cod Almighty has had a go at The Fishy a couple of times as well. The irony is that there is an assumption (from some) that nobody spans all the groups but it's obvious many of us do. I'm here, on Twitter and an avid reader of Cod Almighty. Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.

Twitter #gtfc is good on match days and a quick check on every now and then to see if any transfer speculation. oh and the ‘on this day’ account is superb just been on twitter and seen Ryan has re signed ! whoops ! you can take the boy out of grimsby......but you can't take grimsby out of his soul, his blood, his semen!

We've constantly supported charities (Thanks Les!), sponsored a player, we've supported each other and 1 chap in particular through mental health and not quite as important but we somehow leak new signings before anywhere else!

Just want GTFC content, be it complete rubbish or not!! Personal abuse and hate shouldn't be tolerated on any platform. Opinions should be respected. Basically, how you'd treat someone face to face.

Used to generally be full of quite decent tweets 5+ years ago but now it's just clowns tweeting the same thing 50 times a day (NO GTFC FANALYTICS I REALLY DO NOT NEED TO HEAR AGAIN HOW VAR DIDN'T SEND BRIGHTON'S KEEPER OFF) and trolls. Least this place still has a fair few thoughtful, considered and funny posters in amongst all the boomers asking 'how do i work i follow' and claiming Luton is now a fully sharia compliant independant caliphate no-go zone for white football fans. gary jones

The Fishy is for me a much better debating forum because all comment comes under a thread title and you can easily see everyone's views. On Twitter you need to be following individuals. Twitter is much better for immediate info such as team news, club news and even seeing footage of games. Quite a few threads on here start because of a tweet. The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress. Joseph Joubert.
