A Manchester City player has been hounded into apologising for getting her photo taken with Louis Van Gaal

World’s gone mad, lads.

Yesterday, Manchester City and England striker had to apologise to fans after posing for a photo with Manchester United manager Louis Van Gaaal at a restaurant.

In another case of Twitter morons getting their way, the player apologised for her “error of judgement” in having a snap taken with the United boss.

Duggan had posted a picture of her with the United boss, and despite such a harmless action, there were plenty of touchy City fans who hurled some pretty horrible abuse towards her on Twitter.

@toni_duggan Still no apology then for your tweets yesterday? I hate that you're associated with the club I love. You're an embarrassment.

The abuse reached such unnecessary levels to the extend that Duggan was forced to apologise on her Facebook page, saying: “I now appreciate the significance of my actions”.
