Tom Daley Twitter abuser trending worldwide, makes Sky News
 
Quote:

Just a couple of hours after missing out on a medal in the 10m synchronised diving, British hope Tom Daley was receiving abuse on Twitter, including references to his late father.

18-year-old Daley, in partnership with Pete Waterfield, finished fourth in the event, having led at the halfway stage. A misjudged dive cost them their lead, and the duo could not recover.

But despite the near-miss, a defiant Daley made an example of a Twitter user who launched a sickening rant.

"After giving it my all you get idiots sending me this," Daley tweeted before linking to the message, from a user named Riley Junior.

"You let your dad down, I hope you know that," he had written. Daley's father lost his battle with cancer in 2011.

Shortly before the final had begun, Daley had expressed his gratitude for the support he had received since that time.

"After the toughest year of my life, today is the day!" Daley wrote. "I just want to thank everyone for all their support no matter what the outcome."

Daley competes again in the 10m individual competition on August 11.
Seriously the next person who says Twitter > Facebook can suck my dick.

He's the biggest troll on the internet.

Although I have given him some attention today, but only because some of the stuff was decent to retweet.

He's just an awful human-being :bored:

That's in poor taste from the Twitter user, Tom Daley seems like a nice guy and James Corden had good fun with him on A League Of Their Own.

bbfan1991 30-07-2012 07:44 PM

That tweet is disgraceful and apparently he has said much worse but I did not respond because that guy clearly wants the attention and people are feeding his ego by getting wound up, it would be better if he was ignored...

Jayson 30-07-2012 07:47 PM

There's always going to be a few arseholes that act like that. Once you give them the power to communicate with celebrities they start to think that what they say matters and end up saying these sorts of things. This is one of the reason's I'm not on Twitter. Absolutely disgusting.

Twitter>facebook :evilgrin:

Seriously though, that's just so ****ing offensive!

Andrew. 30-07-2012 08:07 PM

he is jealous because tom daley is essentially the fittist thing ever

also tom has talent and that riley kids only claim to fame is probably fingering himself whilst eating a jaffa cake

King Gizzard 30-07-2012 08:14 PM

Wouldn't have been a story if he'd simply have been reported and ignored, instead his ego is inflated and he's gained 20k+ followers

I have known about Rileyy on Twitter for some time and he has never been a nice person. His attention started when he allegedly sent text messages to Olly Riley, this became a video war and the fued has continued since. He has constantly given abuse to other users and is a nasty piece of work. I am so glad that he has finally been exposed for the person that he is - a MORON.

Tom Daley had worked so hard to be where he is today and to represent his country, at home, in the biggest sporting event is a huge achivement. Yes it did not go so well for him and Pete but he did NOT deserve the abuse that he got. That was unacceptable and morally wrong. I hope that he faces the worst punnishment posible.

Unlike Rileyy (real name REECE /reference to the videos) Tom is a true inspiration and he DID do his dad proud. I am sure Mr Daley was watching from heaven with great smiles on hs face in the arena.

Rileyy - pure idiot.

Smithy 30-07-2012 08:20 PM

he apologised when he starting trending, then he made it onto the news and now he's off again :bored:

I supported Tom. :idc: Me and him share our birthday :idc:

Yeah this guy is a complete cock, he has Twitter feuds with that kid called Olly Riley (who actually isn't that bad a guy, he seems quite decent). Said guy has a young sister who died, and there's also screenshots of this Riley guy tweeting him saying 'I pissed on your dead sister's grave, how does that make you feel?' amongst other vile things, he's a nasty little troll. And I came across this video earlier which is just laughably pathetic:



EDIT: Found it.

Ah, but to be fair if girls are going to actively send him pictures of their tits etc then that's their own problem, no one's forcing them to.

Good luck to him if you ask me. At least he's not nasty.

Smithy 30-07-2012 08:46 PM

they were all underage tho ;o

Jack_ 30-07-2012 08:48 PM

I'm sure he's underage or only just 16 himself though. Not that it makes it right but still...it's their own problem for sending the pictures.

We're all a bit perverted, just look at me with some of my comments.:joker:

As long as his not like Frankie Cocozza which I hope he isn't then I will not hate him.

Jordan. 30-07-2012 08:54 PM

Some people really deserve to not be alive.

Harry! 30-07-2012 09:04 PM

When Olly announced he liked girls in knee high socks young girls VOLUNTEERED in sending in pics, he did not ask for them. Olly is alright though dispite his perverted nature. He was even in the same venue as me when I went to Wireless :p , did not see but he was there, close apparatly. FAR better then Rileyy Kid.

Locke. 30-07-2012 09:06 PM

Sounds like you have a bit of a crush Harry

Mystic Mock 30-07-2012 09:07 PM

We need a site called Perverts United.:dance:

Smithy 30-07-2012 09:08 PM

Not at all, he is so overated looks wise. Don't see what people see in him.

Jords 30-07-2012 09:17 PM

Olly and Riley are both a pair of twats, why do people give them attention?
