Sol Campbell, the former England defender, has become the subject of online ridicule after tweeting about receiving poor service at a London cafe on Wednesday.
The ex-Arsenal player posted: “Such terrible service from Liam at @CambridgeStCafe this morning! I will not be going back there again!”
Within minutes, social media users jumped to Liam’s defence, accusing Campbell of “being a grass” and trying to get an innocent man fired before Christmas.
Liam, who works at Cambridge Street Cafe in south-west London, tweeted a message to the footballer: “Liam here. Think we got off on the wrong foot. Would love to make amends. Hopefully see you soon.”
Here is a selection of other tweets making the rounds. The Guardian has contacted Liam for comment.
