After Luton’s 2-1 FA Cup victory over Bolton on Tuesday, Edwards’ post-match interview went viral, making him an unintentional viral icon. In a video posted on Luton’s official X account, Edwards talked about his team’s performance after the Hatters overcame a deficit to advance to the fourth round of the premier cup competition in English football.
But it doesn’t seem like the fans were all that interested in what Edwards had to say because hundreds of crude remarks on his appearance appeared first.
Here is what one of the fans posted:
