Karen Carney deleted her Twitter account after receiving abuse after commenting on Leeds.

The former Manchester United women star worked as an expert on Amazon Prime Video.

Given Leeds’ 5-0 win at West Brom on Jan.. December, Carney commented on the way the whites were promoted.

Marcelo Bielsa’s team have a reputation for overtaking their opponents, and so did the Hawthorns.

Carney praised their efforts, but raised concerns about whether they could maintain this intensity throughout the season.

That led Carney to say, « I actually believe they got promoted for Covid, which gave them a little peace of mind. I don’t know if they would have got up if they hadn’t had this break. « 

Leeds’ Twitter account responded by pointing out the profit margin of 10 points in what has been called an innappropraite by many.

On the back, Carney has been the target of online abuse targeting her point but also her gender.

The post from Leeds’ Twitter remains on her account and the video of Carney’s comments has now been viewed for £ 5. 8m times.

The Yorkshire Club was told by a person on Twitter to « be ashamed » of their post, which led owner Andrea Radrizzani to respond.

« I think this comment [from Carney] is completely unnecessary and disrespectful to our club and especially to the fantastic hard work of our players and coaches. « 

However, several leaders, including those who work in the media, have condemned Leed’s decision to tweet.

Former defense attorney Rio Ferdinand urged them to dismantle it, while others felt that doing so would inevitably lead to criticism that later turned into abuse.
