FootballCynic was up late last night and decided that he fancied a quick twitter after a raucous evening at the Football Blog of the Year Awards Dinner. As usual, FootballCynic scooped most of the awards. Afterwards waiting for his taxi home, FootballCynic wrote “seriously getting pissed now, it’s so frustrating hanging round drinking Jack Daniels.” Darren Bent spotted FootballCynic online through Farcebook and wrote “Cool twitter, ‘Cynic”. Then, Darren mistakenly pasted FootballCynic’s tweet into his tweet and told FootballCynic to stop f*****g around. Before he knew it, he had sent a tweet that the world would find so amusing. Who hasn’t hit the send button only to regret it an instant later?

Of course, many players now use Farcebook to describe their momentary thoughts. One England player apparently described his thought of the day as “I have bet an hour’s wages that I can kiss the badge before Didier does”. Such loyalty, indeed. Surely, Manchester City could have offered just a little bit more though. Below: Darren Bent tries to keep a low profile.
