Turner warns Players about Tweeting

Following a note from the FA, former Hereford United manager Graham Turner has warned his Shrewsbury players about the potential perils of using Twitter. His message comes after Neil Warnock suggested tweeting by players might have played a part in him being sacked.

"The FA's warned us that players whose tweets bring the game into disrepute will face action - and rightly so," Turner told BBC Radio Shropshire.

"I can't understand what possesses people to put on controversial things.

"Players tweet to each other forgetting they're tweeting to the public.

"But it's like making a statement at a press conference. There's no privacy in it, so how do they think they'll ever get away with some of the comments they make?"
