West Brom striker Charlie Austin goes on x-rated Twitter rant calling Southampton fan 'cheeky c***'

West Brom striker Charlie Austin has gone on a foul-mouthed Twitter rant - calling one Southampton fan a cheeky c*** and accusing the Saints collective of being s*** fans after tweeting about the negative effects of social media.

The former Southampton striker later deleted his tweets following his x-rated comments on Twitter, but only after he had severely criticised fans of the Premier League side.

The Baggies striker, who moved to the club in the summer from Southampton on a two-year deal, was an unused substitute in West Brom's 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
