    Guys and gals,
    I'm new to twitter and I am sure there are plenty of people on here that use it as a fantasy football tool. I'm wondering what are the best twitter feeds for fantasy football players?

    It'd be great to build a definitive list so we can then add it to the resources sticky.

    I'm interested in twitter feeds that give team news, injuries, starting teams etc...basically all feeds that help keep ff players up to date on all happeneings that may influence team selection. They can be general or team specific.

    This is the only one that I use. It has updates with all the breaking news as it comes in. Most importantly they never post any speculation. There is always a reputable source. Well they do quote the Daily Fail a few times, but apart from that they are very good.

    It can also be handy to follow players on your team or ones that you might be looking at getting in in a while.

    Lescott, for example, has confirmed that he's fully fit and ready for selection at the weekend. He put that up 25 minutes ago. It could take hours for that to hit the mainstream media and it might save you a price rise or whatever.

    EDIT: Now he seems to have a cold. I'll have to keep an eye on this one and see how it develops :P.

    Kompany was another great one for keeping people posted about his injury

    Warning if you follow some footballers you'll have to put up with endless retweets from their dribbling followers and pictures of what they had for dinner
