Joe Wollacott has revealed the vile racist abuse he’s been subjected to on social media
The Rovers goalkeeper, 23, shared a screengrab of the despicable tirade on his Twitter account, captioned simply “2019”.
In four separate messages, the troll wrote: “Mother f***er n***er s***.
“You are f***ing s*** goalkeeper ever.
“Nice goal vs Carlisle :).
“Piece of s*** n***er slave.”
The caption of “2019” was likely a reference to the sickening amount of racist incidents in football in this calendar year.
