00:00 What has Neil Moppe been this week? Have you spoken to him?
00:03 Yeah, I speak to him every day.
00:06 Has he mentioned anything about the online abuse that he suffered after the home game?
00:10 No, that's been made clear, our thoughts on that as a club and I think everyone's thoughts on it to be honest.
00:16 It's not often that players do bring it up and speak about the online abuse that they suffer.
00:22 Do the authorities, do the clubs, social media companies need to know more?
00:27 It's for them to govern all that sort of stuff, you know I can't do anything about that.
00:31 I only ever remark about social media for the players to be careful with it.
00:34 Against popular belief, I've said it a million times, it never seems to find the power, but I'm not against social media at all.
00:40 I just always say to players be wise with it.
00:43 There's a number of people out there that want to attack people about different things in their life.
00:46 Footballers are bound to be open to that if they open their accounts up to everyone.
00:50 So I just say always be careful of it and be respectful of it.
