RIP Leicester City facebook page

[Argarath]

Tried to check updates on the U21 match yesterday, 400+ comments in arabic and probs 400 more with retard comments like "Why do you play today?" And where is Slimani. I got so tired of this. Does the moderator of that page even give a f****?

[Voll Blau]

Probably a blessing. The comments from native English speakers usually make me want to blow my own head off.

I might hang around to see the reactions of the EDL types when they cotton on to the fact we have strikers called Islam and Ahmed.

Yeah, I got some stick off them for calling my kids Esteban & N'golo

Islam, Ahmed, Hamza Choudary, POTY is Muslim, record signing's initials are IS.

It's as if we're trying to piss them off.

And some player called Adi Yussuf or something like that if he's still here.

I too find this very annoying and don't get why it isn't moderated! 

[UPinCarolina]

The Facebook page died a long time ago. 

[bovril]

I'll never understand why people get annoyed by Facebook and then continue to use Facebook.

In their defence, it's gone from under a million mostly British likes to over 6 million people all over the world in under 12 months.

Maybe worth increasing the size of the social media department, but I can understand why they'd be overwhelmed at the moment. I certainly don't have a problem with different languages on there, our success last year brought with it worldwide acclaim and you can now find fake Leicester City shirts nestling alongside the Barcelona and Real tops in any self-respecting Turkish market stall. Part of the beast I'm afraid.

Hopefully they will move to a multi-lingual page which defaults on your location. Right now, they probably have the fanbase in Arabic, Japanese, and Thai.

I think that's pretty likely - the Arabic speaking fanbase alone is going to become much bigger still once Slimani is officially announced.

 

I'm actually surprised the Thai fan page isn't bigger than it is - it perhaps needs more promotion from the social media peeps.

That Algerian gif....

 

 

I quit Facebook years ago.

Doesn't really bother me at all, gaining support from different parts of the world.

Right now it is a separate page. There is a way of having a single landing page, which chooses your language-page by location (although you can of course change the default). Most big multinationals do it this way...and LCFC is becoming a big multinational it seems.

Facebook is full of shite anyway. Stay away from it.

and a defender called Christian, all about balance..

[MC Prussian]

It's going to be even more havoc now with two Algerian internationals on our books!

The moderator? Is that a joke? The only things you can moderate on Facebook are swearing in comments, and it's all automatic.

 

Every new like the club get is worth hundreds in add revenue... To the point where football manager sponsored our pre season posts by having their logo added to every post... It's a goldmine!

 

id say what I'd say to anyone annoyed on Facebook pages I manage, if you don't like it it's not difficult to ignore, if you were looking for U21 updates they would be in the post itself, there's no need to look in the comments.

[SamDZ]

its never been as lively as today

[Guest Sharpe's Fox]

Algerian fans are shite. No idea how to post a meme in the comments never mind a dank one. It's all just محرز الإسلام 

[foxychik]

We must now be the biggest club in Algeria !! 

[NewEnglandFox]

Scenes in 10 days when Slimani doesn't play....
