TWITS TROLLING ON TWITTER: JAMIE REDKNAPP INVESTIGATES WIDELY-DETESTED KEYBOARD WARRIORS

The popular Paddy Power series returns with a second episode as Redknapp tackles internet trolling 

Jamie Redknapp is back with another hard-hitting episode of Paddy Power‘s Jamie Redknapp Investigates, the series that sees former footballer-turned-pundit uncover the beautiful game’s uglier side. 

The first episode saw Redknapp look at the modern embarssament of half-and-half scarves, and in episode two of the new series, the football legend meets one the game’s most annoying new elements, as he tracks down a real life Twitter troll. 

Redknapp meets Rodney “Rodders” Harris in his bedroom at his mum’s home and explores some of the footballing burns he uses on Twitter. Rodney explains that he loves to “take the team names and tweak them just a little bit and turn them into sick insults”.  

Some of the “best” he can come up with include naming Liverpool “Loserfool” and renaming their ground to “Analfield”. 

Looking for an explanation, Redknapp interviews an expert on Football Twitter Syndrome (FTS). “The whole point of football Twitter is getting attention and gaining traction. These people will do anything for numbers” warns Dr. Valarie Pepper, an expert on the impact social media can have on society. 

She goes on to explain that football fans online will engage in pointless arguments and be controversial for the sake of it, these trolls can continue with their words of hatred until they have “ratioed you into oblivion”.

Redknapp confronts Rodney on his constant use online of words like “virgin” and questions why he’s so obsessed with that word. 

“Well, it might be a little obsession for all those little virgins, Jamie, but not for me. Not with the amount of sex I do” Rodney quickly comes back, as Redknapp breaks into laughter.  

People closest to Rodney are equally confused by his love for trolling, with his mum pleading that, “I don’t know why they can’t just be nice to one another on the Twitters”. 

And Redknapp has some key advice for those faced by aggressive trolls. “Block and move on. Block and move on.”

Spokesman Paddy Power said: “Thanks to the Jamie, we now know something we long suspected! That Twitter trolls are just a bunch of Rodney’s in their parents homes surrounded by sticky clothes.  

“Of course everyone’s allowed an opinion on football, but if you come across a helmet like Rodders, take Jamie’s advice and just bloke and move on. And just be glad you’re not the one who has to clean his socks.”

Meridianbet, a member of the Golden Matrix Group (NASDAQ: GMGI), in partnership with Meridianbet Foundation, Expanse Studios, and BC Crvena zvezda Meridianbet announces the launch of a significant humanitarian initiative, ‘Scan. Help.’, aimed at supporting maternity hospitals across Southeast Europe.

The rollout of this action to other market territories is expected in the remainder of 2024.

How It Works

For every scanned QR code and subsequent registration on the Meridian Foundation’s website, funds will be allocated towards equipping five maternity hospitals in Serbia. This innovative approach not only raises awareness but also actively involves the community in our CSR activities.

The initiative is currently ongoing with high media presence and is broadcasted during Southeast Europe’s regional basketball Finals series (ABA League). BC Red Star players wear jerseys featuring the QR code, with additional promotion through basketball arena ads, TV ads, and more, encouraging fans and supporters to participate.

A Unified Effort for Community Impact

The ‘Scan. Help.’ campaign is a collaborative effort involving Meridianbet, Meridianbet foundation, Expanse Studios, and basketball club Crvena zvezda Meridianbet, Southeast Europe’s leading basketball club, of which Meridianbet is the name sponsor. The initiative is designed to leverage our collective resources and influence to make a meaningful impact on local communities.

Multi-Stakeholder Support and Growing Participation

The ‘Scan. Help.’ campaign has received institutional support ad backing from the Ministry of Health, reinforcing the importance and legitimacy of this cause. Additionally, several companies have already expressed their desire to contribute, with provisions made for donations through the Meridian Foundation’s account. This broadening support network amplifies the initiative’s reach and potential impact.

This campaign exemplifies Meridianbet’s dedication to sustainable development and community well-being. In 2023 alone, the company has launched 225 CSR campaigns, reflecting the commitment to making a lasting impact.
