Despite several requests I am still unsure as to why a former coach would target my daughter with hate messages.
Gary Barrell, you have confirmed that the account was linked to your phone&email. You have tried to hide from social media, but I will pursue this to its conclusion.
With all of the mayhem going on with division allocations, why not get involved with me and the team at @reddboroughfc where things are a little bit less chaotic โฝ๏ธ ๐ต
New chapter. New challenge.
Thrilled to be joining Aid and his team at Redditch Borough Women next season as Assistant Manager.
Excited for the opportunity and looking forward to getting started with everyone at the club. Up the Borough๐
What a way to close our first season in T5 @wmrwfl .

Itโs been a blast.
Letโs run it again next season โฝ๏ธ

A really pleasing performance against our nearest rivals.
Their long ball tactic was nullified by our superior work rate across every player in the team.
An excellent team performance, that every player can be proud of.

If anyone else has been targeted by the acount smayling2008 or has received hateful messages, drop me a DM.
You are not alone and it wont be tolerated.

I cannot let this go because we have to protect everyone in the womenโs game.
It should be a safe space for everyone, including players, managers, coaches, support staff.
Nobody should be targeted by fake accounts with hateful comments.

If the account was set up and authenticated in error, and then used by a 3rd party without your knowledge, a phone call would have lead to our support with an investigation.
If it wasnโt done in error, you shouldnโt be in the womenโs game.
I do hope parents of aspiring footballers sent on these camps now think twice about sending their teenage daughters abroad with a man who thinks calling young women a โWaste of spaceโ and discriminating their looks.
Disgusting.
I want to hope this isn't true and someone has used your email and phone number, but if it is then I'm utterly disgusted.
A coach I once had who made me love football and still has a BIG presence in women's football to have multiple hate comments coming from this account.
@THISGIRLKICKS Gary, your email and mobile are linked to the insta account Smayling2008, which had made defamatory remarks about my daughter.
Iโm sure you will address this with urgent attention.
BUT, If you have done this using a fake account, you should be ashamed.
Well the account no longer exists!
What are the chances of that!!
Fortunately, the data, account holder information and posts are available for another 30 days with @Meta

@BirminghamFA@WorcsFA could this be investigated asap to protect female footballers and others in the game.
Fake accounts have no place on social media platforms.
Thank you.
A picture paints a thousand words.
@StourbridgeWFC
Even in the toughest times, we were a team ๐ซถ
Good luck to everyone involved with Stour tomorrow ๐ค
Firstly, congratulations to @WCWomenFC on todayโs result.
Secondly @WorcsFA need to do better with referee selection for finals.
Poor, poor referee again. The game should be about the players and not the ref.
Well done @reddboroughfc, you all did the club proud ๐
