“This is a disgrace! His little leggies are cold!”

Paddy wasn’t the only one mocking Tommy yesterday – a lot o those watching the match were too. Many were quick to judge his 20-minute cameo on the field “awful”.
“Tommy Fury is an awful footballer but is still considerably better than he is at boxing,” one viewer joked.
“Tommy Fury is [bleep] at football,” another tweeted. Additionally, a third then wrote: “Convinced Tommy has no idea what he’s doing at this point.”
“NAHHHH WATCHING TOMMY FURY IS HILARIOUS,” another said.
