"That is not an example of a tolerant society," Humphreys tells viewers as Carney deletes Twitter account

TARGETED: Former England international Karen Carney has received strong support from BT Sport host Jake Humphreys in the wake of the vile online abuse she endured last week for comments about Leeds Utd's promotion. The Elland Road club denies their tweet in response to her comments was offensive. 

BT SPORT host Jake Humphrey has jumped to the defence of former England star Karen Carney and blasrted the 'misogynistic, sexist and vile abuse' she endured in the wake of punditry comments on Leeds Utd last week.

Carney took the decision to delete her Twitter account after being targeted with vile abuse in the wake of a tweet from Leeds Utd’s official account. Carney had claimed the enforced break caused by coronavirus last season helped Leeds clinch the Championship title and with it a return to the Premier League.
