Jonty Rhodes Heated Moment With Fan
The Argument started when an LSG fan posted on X (formerly Twitter): "Day 10 of Tweeting until LSG Replies". Despite the deletion of the post, Jonty Rhodes expressed his displeasure at witnessing such desperation from the fan.
In response to the escalating controversy, Rhodes took to social media to clarify the situation and extend an apology if his remarks had caused any offense to the fan.
"Brother, get a life. Many thanks for the support, we appreciate it. But wow, come on...." Rhodes responded.
Seeing this, the fan responded angrily, The fan then said, "He could have just replied normally, I tweeted as a fan and I didn't abuse or spread hatred anywhere, If I can't tweet for my fav team to reply me, and the team's coach feels cheering for them is being jobless then I lost all the respect for him. Won't cheer for LSG anymore!!"
Refusing to allow the social media conversation to intensify, the retired cricketer promptly responded to the fan's accusation by questioning where he had made such a statement about his job status.
