The Hornets club captain has spoken out about the abuse he received on social media recently WatfordFC
Bachmann was asked about it at last night’s At Our Place fan's event and spoke calmly and thoughtfully about his experience, while expressing an almost resigned sense of frustration that more is not being done to combat it.
“I was talking to Luther about the whole situation with me a couple of weeks ago and I said it doesn’t really bother me, then I said well, I’m saying it don’t really bother me but nobody likes to read stuff like that on the internet, especially my wife and my parents, it’s not nice. “Unfortunately it’s part of the game. I don’t think you can erase it. The platforms are obviously not doing enough because it’s been going on for multiple years now and nothing’s really changing, it’s getting worse if anything where there’s racism, and it's about sexuality. In my case none of these two things are involved and I’m still getting abused.
