The amount of bullying from the media and on social media she is having to endure is sickening. Barely concealed misogyny and racism, they just couldn't wait for a reason to rip into her could they? It's disgusting and relentless. I'm worried for her and hope she can stay strong and has plenty of support around her.

Whats she really done, other than stand up for herself against joey Barton and say that Ian wright is taking a pundit space away from a woman?

Agree, it's looking like she's about to lose everything for daring to stand up for herself

Exactly. And if you compare the abuse she is receiving for that one comment which was nothing, compared to Joey Barton after all his public abuse towards her.... where was the outrage then?
So blatant.
The media are doing a fine job of showing women their place.
I really feel for her.

Par of the course for a woman and a black woman at that - we should know our place it seems. Yes, her comments about Ian Wright were ill judged but many male players and pundits have done so much worse and they haven't endured this much abuse. Racism and misogyny is what it is!!

I feel sorry for her as well, she really doesn't deserve this 😔
