It all started because she made a few ill-informed comments and people said wait a minute, that's tosh, she made a big stink, a few people made comments back- one or two that did go over the acceptable line, in my opinion...

...why am I commenting about it again! :lol: I've been wishing people would shut up about it all day, so I shall do the same.
Not everyone thinks public sector workers are all that "hard done by" you know! They are just being pulled a little closer to the private sector and the asshole unions see their power being erroded thats why the confrontation is happening.
Admitedly it's a bit rich for a wag with a multi sqillion pound a year hubby to be pitching in publically what next? cheryl the peril weeping over x factor AGAIN
Thing was Hoboh, given the strike was over pensions, I don't think anybody felt the comment regarding working hours and holidays was warranted.
It is when the perception is that they have better pensions but work less.

I liked the way she backed up her OWN argument, by stating that her HUSBANd doesn't get Christmas off and has to work bank holidays. Then she spoke about her HUSBAND having to fork out 51% tax (this again was ill-informed, as only a portion of the wage gets taxed that much) then she added. "My Husband is a Professional Footballer".... Really? You never said.....

The whole thing was funny as fook, because she genuinely believes that because her Husband is loaded, her opinions matter more. But that's the bubble that they live in.

Besides, I've met her outside of her Charity world.. she's NOT pleasant

Exactly, it's just her opinion. An opinion I'm sure many other people hold. The only thing people have a problem with is she's a wag saying it. If I said it (not saying that I agree with her) and I had a nine to five job on worse pay than teachers then no-one would see anything wrong and people wouldn't be abusing me all over twitter. I'm sure she wasn't the only parent annoyed that the kids were home that day.

Fook me. Thats shocking. Whether you agree with the strikes or not is one thing. But to then try and say how "badly off you are" when your husband earns 30K a week, thats just embarrassing beyond belief!

To be fair she was only replying to accusations that she couldn't say that because she was loaded, and her husband was a footballer, not asking people to pity her.

Sorry if it was a non BWFC related WAG talking shite about a subject they didn't understand nobody on here would defend them.

From what I've seen its not even that she had an opinion, its that she couldn't cope with someone disagreeing with her, however mild the response was!

I'm not defending what she said, I don't agree with it. I am just trying to be fair when someone makes it sound like she was saying something she wasn't.

All I am saying is that there is a massive overreaction and the abuse being hurled at the captains wife is despicable.

IF she is getting abuse then yes thats not right. But if people are just saying "I don't agree" or "You didn't get your facts right" or "You can't talk your husband earns millions a year" then that is not abuse.

She is on twitter and people follow her because she makes herself known. Anyone who is remotely famous or known on something like that is bound to receive some unpleasent messages. End of the day she is not special, whether she is Kevin Davies' wife or not.

Some of what I've seen off people has been much more personal than that but I understand what you mean. Just think Bolton fans slagging off Davies' wife is uncalled for and let's be honest wouldn't give a great impression of us. People follow her because she is Kevin Davies' wife, I guess I just don't understand the need to be unpleasant to people just because they are remotely famous or associated with people who are.

If she doesn't like hearing home truths about her ill-advised ignorant rantings, she could just hit the "block" button on the offending tweeters.

Otherwise, moaning about it just makes her an attention seeker.
Mrs Kevin Davies, to Ricketts' Wife wrote:hello!! are you sure you are ready for this? Light comments only. If they think you have a brain you will be toast!
If "they" think you have a brain.

First of all, she's no different to us, we're all human beings just trying to get by in life.

Second of all, we all have brains, but choosing when to broadcast our thoughts is what seperates intelligent people, from attention seekers wannabes.

I'm sure she's a nice person, but people just need to remember that the internet is not some alternate reality that only exists online. Once you put something out there, it stays there forever, it is always archived by someone. We've all said things we regretted afterwards. The right thing to do is acknowledge you fecked up, apologise, and move on.

Can it really be so hard to just not act like c*nts online? Actually, I already know the answer to that one. Apologies for the deep thinking! :D

with brain? Surely all this kicked off because it was questioned whether she actually had one?
