Did Walsall Twitter troll Wolverhampton after a win?

The first Black County Derby since 2003 was played this week with the away team Walsall FC ending Wolves unbeaten home streak with a 1-0 win. Everyone loves a good derby win but teams don't usually go this far in gloating.

Special thanks to @farnell81 for the screen capture as the tweet was deleted promptly from @WFCOfficial. Immediately following the deletion Walsall FC issued this statement on their official Facebook page:

Walsall Football Club would like to apologise unreservedly to Wolverhampton Wanderers and their supporters for the offensive Tweet that appeared on the club’s Official Twitter Page – @WFCOfficial – last night.

Our Official account was hacked at 22:36 last night and a derogative and frankly disgusting Tweet was published. As soon as the club’s Communications Team, who were at Molineux for the fixture, were made aware of the Tweet, it was deleted and an apology issued.

Walsall Football Club are taking this matter very, very seriously. A full investigation will be launched.

Walsall FC do not condone this type of behaviour and when the culprit is identified the club will be taking the strongest course of action.

Usually I view accounts that claim hacking as the reason for an offensive tweet with a HUGE grain of salt but this one would seem to be a legit hack. Was it tacky? Yes. Was it offensive? Yes. You know what else it was though? Hilarious. I'm not even sure what what "..dingle bastards." means but I think everyone should try to somehow work this insult into a conversation today. Let me know how it turns out!

FC Copenhagen won't sell you Champs League tickets if your name doesn't sound Danish.

Are you a fan of FC Copenhagen? (DUH!!) Want to go see them play at home in the Champions League? (What fan wouldn't?!?) Have a last name that doesn't "sound Danish"? Then you can take your ass to the visitors seats! Story via ESPNFC.

The Danish side have been drawn against Galatasaray, Juventus and Real Madrid in Group B of the Champions League, but supporters, according to newspaper Ekstrabladet, have been angered by a new club policy.

It is claimed that, for "security reasons", fans with non-Danish sounding names who bought three-match packages for their home games have seen the tickets cancelled.

"Safety is always our main concern when it comes to events at Parken (stadium). Therefore we make every effort to ensure that fans of our guests only have access to the away section," FC Copenhagen club secretary Daniel Rommedahl is quoted as saying by Reuters.

To be fair the story does go on to say that fans can call the Front Office and work the issue out if their last name doesn't happen to end in "en". No seriously almost all Danish people's last names end in "en". Go see for yourself.

Regardless of whether you can work out the confusion with the team or not, on the surface this seems like a really bad PR move. But then again would anyone be talking about FC Copenhagen otherwise? Is this actually a genius PR move hidden in slightly xenophobic stereotypes? .....touche FCK. Touche.
