Looking for people to add useful Twitter users to follow for Blackburn Rovers news, in particular. Also, any Blackburn players on there? Also, any other football news users, reputable journalists etc would be good to.

I tend to only use Twitter as a football ticker, but finding it hard to find reputable and non-repetative users to follows.

There are a few Rovers players on, Jason Roberts, Jason Brown, Phil Jones... Loads to journos and football pundits on as well.

If you have a look at @brfcsdotcom I have set several lists up including news people, players and fans.

I think Deftangel has list of fans too.

[Bunford]

Good stuff! Any more?

Also, any more general footy one? Especially people in the know, reputable journalists etc?

Cheers for the mention Glenn, this list has about 200+ on at the minute. Typically gets half a dozen updates a minute when it's busy.

Bunford, let me know your handle and I can add you to it if you want.

You can of course follow #rovers too (well, you can search for it on the twitter website, but most twitter clients now let you follow hashtags). You get the odd Bristol Rovers tweet and I think there must be a Canadian scout-like group called #rovers, but it's 95% BRFC

I use a website here:

http://www.myteamstweets.com/premiership/blackburn-rovers/ It has a pretty good collation of all the genuine footballers twittering. For Blackburn they have Jason Roberts/Brown/Phil Jones. It updates regularly and is a pretty quick site. Interesting to have a look at what these guys are like without the media sitting between us and them. There's always loads of banter going on between the arsenal players - especially Wilshire!

They can add @_J_Lowe to our list. Jason Roberts was kind enough to verify that was legit today.
