    Why is it so naff? Its just naff all around. Naff naff naff. Cringe central. It's been bugging me for a while. It's like they've got a giddy little spotty 21 year old, who's obsessed with emojis, to run it.

    Tyson Fury is annoying me too. Quick to criticise AJ and his opponents but needs to look into the mirror first before mouthing off about being a "real fighting man" and all that.

    That little poxy ticket giveaway Billy Joe and Tyson did, was embarassing too.

    Kugan is a wnker by the way. Should be no disagreements with that last one.

    At least it hasn't blocked me unlike the Warren account. Didn't even tweet anything abusive to it. Bit weird for a promotional account to block!!

    People the BT Boxing Twitter account need to not offend:

    BT Sport Executives
    BT Sport Executives who don't like boxing
    BT Main company executives who don't care about boxing but do about the BT brand
    BT main company executives who hate boxing and want them to drop it
    BT Shareholders
    BT Ombudsman/ Watchdog Ofcom etc.
    Then there's all the other establishment types that keep an eye on a company like BT, then competitors eager to see them slip up so they can stick the boot in. Anti boxing campaigners etc etc.

    Basically they have to strike a bland tone, they don't have as much room for manoever as most of the boxing accounts.

    They're still milking the Tyson Fury knockdown in the 12th.

    Why wouldnt they?
    They have limited content and stars
    Until that changes they rinse the stuff and people they do have access to

    Sky are no different
    Josh vs Vlad is still shown clips of and spoken about on a regular

    And who can blame them

    How many fighters has AJ boxed in the top 2 of the Division? None. Fury has boxed 2 one of them one an ATG and both in THEIR OWN COUNTRY. No fortress Wembley required. Have some respect.

    Don't go on twitter, but if true it's a strange one. You would think someone at BT would recognise the value in social media marketing and put someone who knows what they're doing in charge of the accounts. Baffling really.

    A spotty 21 year old is exactly who they need running it. It's the youngsters who are the experts in digital media. They come out of the nappy tapping away at their iphone (the bstrds).

    Spot on this if you look at the Matchroom boxing team (2m44s) think Eddie is the oldest one in the office.

    I've commented about their page before. It's an utter cringefest. Emoji central.

    Dev Sahni runs the Frank Warren account, and some of the fighters ala Dangerous Daniel Dubois. I'm not sure if he has the keys to the BT boxing account though.
