7. Fourth Official - @FourthOfficial_ - 59,513 followers

Screen Shot 2013 09 10 At 10 50 18 Fourth Official is one of my favourite opinion accounts on Twitter, from the clever name to the intriguing views, this account appeals to me as a Journalist in the way that they both provide and share opinions with their followers. Fourth Official is renowned for it's very accurate transfer rumours and I would blindly trust their recommendations. Interesting proof about the accuracy of Fourth Official's rumours is that they recently predicted the Everton transfers involving Gareth Barry, James McCarthy and Victor Anichebe- 3 weeks before any major broadcasting team was able to get hold of information that was even close. Unfortunately, Fourth Official do receive a lot of tweets with ridiculous abuse so if you can withstand reading that, then you are in for a treat.
