Its a sad fact but a fact none the less that being famous had downsides. And one of those is that other people can slag you off but you have to keep quiet. The most reasonable people in the world will not be able to convince a stranger on social networking to change their mind, and the repucussions for a famous person are greater than those for a nobody. Either don't read the feedback or don't put yourself out there to encourage them. In no other business can you hope to slag off your customers and have a business left. And I'm not sure that being brought up to say whatever you think is actually a policy that is going to get you far in most walks of life.
He was brought up to be honest.... Not a bad policy in my book, and for a 20 year old I think he's got pretty far in life.
Honesty is good. You need to also add a bit of common sense & tact.
If I was introduced to someone that I thought was ugly, it's probably not a great idea to say "hello I'm pleased to meet you, but my aren't you ugly".
Maybe not, and to be fair he didn't do this when he was introduced to the Liverpool fans........ But if that ugly person started insulting you then you would be well within your rights to point out their lack of beauty.
insults from a few and he slags off half the fans. Get real Uncle. With friends like you who needs enemies. Tell him to get his head down and concentrate on his football. Keeping any fans onside must help
"Get real"? "Tell him"? On who's authority do you have it that you can tell me what to do? Or for that matter, that I can tell a 21 year old man what to do? I not his "friend". You are looking at this as a football fan...... I'm not, so just for now you have your opinion and I'll have mine. Don't start to insult me though about friends and enemies.
I don't have any authority that is for certain. However I can have the opinion that he needs to get his head down and concentrate on the football and that is what people around him should be telling him. Perhaps my words were too strong and I didnt mean to insult you, so apolgies for that.
