_FA Embroiled in Controversy: Deletes Tweet Amidst Newcastle United Backlash_
The Football Association (FA) has found itself at the center of a social media storm after posting a contentious tweet that sparked outrage among Newcastle United fans. The since-deleted tweet referenced a “Deering” incident, which many perceived as a jibe at the Magpies.
_Furious Backlash_
Newcastle United supporters took to social media to express their discontent, with many accusing the FA of bias and disrespect. The backlash was swift and intense, with fans demanding an explanation and apology from the governing body.
_Tweet Deleted Amidst Criticism_
In an attempt to diffuse the situation, the FA deleted the offending tweet, but not before it had been screenshot and shared widely across social media platforms.
_Newcastle United’s Response_
Newcastle United has yet to officially comment on the incident, but fans and pundits alike have condemned the FA’s actions.
_Fan Reaction_
Supporters remain outraged:
“FA’s tweet was a clear dig at Newcastle. Unacceptable!” – @ToonArmy (Twitter)
“Deering incident? More like FA’s embarrassing incident!” – @NUFC_Fan4Life (Instagram)
“FA’s apology is needed, but it won’t erase their blatant disrespect” – @MagpieMad (Facebook)
_Pundit Analysis_
Sky Sports’ Jamie Carragher criticized the FA’s actions:

BBC Sport’s Phil McNulty added:
“The FA’s social media management has been poor. They need to regain the trust of fans and clubs alike.”

3. Rebuild trust with the football community
