The 14 Best Registability Tweets

registability

For months I’ve been telling anyone who’ll listen that there’s a genuinely elite Twitter account for football out there.

It’s an anonymous account. He hints at working inside the game as a scout. His knowledge and lingo suggest he’s worked across Europe and possibly with some of the world’s top clubs.

It’s also possible that he’s just a student of the game masquerading as something else. Someone who goes by the same call sign was commenting on a FIFA 17  forum as recently as November 2016. His profile picture is a Manchester City badge.

But for me, it doesn’t matter. He’s got amazing knowledge and doesn’t suffer fools.

He’s called out John Cross at the Daily Mirror. The accusation is that Cross took one of his tweets from 4th December as an idea for an article. Here’s the tweet:

And here’s Cross’ article, dated 7th December: Tottenham’s Dele Alli a £50million summer transfer target for French giants PSG.

He’s also called out Liam Canning, a sports writer for Yahoo Sport:

And he’s taken down Australian blogger Adam Joseph for allegedly nabbing one of his tweets and claiming it as his own.

This is combative. It’s also refreshing.

There’s a clear difference in quality between armchair punditry and those who work within the game. You can follow a hoaxing media, or you can follow someone with real insight. Or both. Compare and contrast. Your call.

But if you’re serious about expanding your knowledge and appreciation of the game, I recommend giving him a follow.

If they’re good enough, they’re old enough, as they say.

To persuade you, here are 14 of @registability’s best tweets, according to me.

Enjoy.
