Screen Shot 2013 09 10 At 10 57 10 This parody account is great for an unwind and a laugh at football fans with absolutely no common sense whilst also being useful for tweeting football news, assuming you can decipher the american idioms. If you were to 'translate' the tweets so to speak, you would be left with interesting match thoughts and news from the lower reaches of the football league. It was through this account that I found out about the Peterborough purchase of Britt Assombalonga and Bradford releasing Zavon Hines, as the more mainstream accounts were busy with whether or not Bale had eaten his breakfast. Therefore, if you're a fan of a football league club, this account is better than the very popular @usasoccerguy, as it doesn't just tweet about Premier League teams and instead considers League One and Two.
