Just updated as didn't have a couple, including the excellent Downhill 2nd Half (@Downhill2ndHalf).

Now if you'd have been following them, in the last couple of days you'd have discovered such gems as (although I think they are forgetting to utilise the # before Striker and Shift):

29 - Izale McLeod and Steve Kabba have scored 29 goals in just 56 starts between them. Only once have they scored in the same game. Striker.

570 - Four players have played every competitive minute so far this season. They are Kamdjo, Parkes, @DanSenda and Brill. Shift.

That is indeed a brilliant link. Thanks.

Poor result, disappointing performance. Need to be able to win matches or draw at the minimum when scoring 2 goals. #tighteningupisamust

I'm quite liking MS on twitter. Honesty is quite refreshing rather than just coming out with the same old rubbish or only commenting after positive results.

@Barnet_Bee is a Twitter account that seems to be run by Adam Newson who is the Times Group reporter who covers Barnet FC.

With little coming out of the club, it might be a decent one to follow. Recent articles have certainly been pretty good.

I use twitter as some of you will know quite a lot and i indeed use the # before certain words...........but i have no idea what the actual # does???

Could someone explain this to me please?

BTW am i right in thinking the only game Izzy and Kabba both scored was Colchester in the JPT?

Cheers

They both scored in the 4-2 win over Lincoln last season, presuming you didn't mean just this season.

I was just trying to answer the 'stat' from Downhill Second half earlier on in the thread but the colchester game may have come after the comment so looks like there are now TWO games

@Karl.

The # before words on twitter designates that word a "topic". If you then click on that topic, either in your tweet or anyone else's then it will take you straight to a list of all tweets with that topic. The # links them.

Then, the most common topics become trends in various areas and are called trending topics.

When the players or staff tweet about Barnet FC, they include #Bees in the tweet to identify that they are talking about Barnet FC. Anyone who then tweets about Barnet FC and who also used the #Bees is linked to their posts via the hash-tag topic.

You can either click on #Bees within a tweet or simply search for #Bees and the result will be the same, although it also covers non-Barnet areas that have used #Bees to identify it.

If I search right now....

The top one is a Brentford comment, then there are some insect tweets, but lower down we have Barnet_Bee, Cox, Owusu, Senda, all tweeting but identifying their subject matter as Barnet FC by using #Bees

So the basic idea is that any tweet involving Barnet FC should also contain #Bees simply to identify it more easily. That way it can be seen by those who are interested even if they are not following you, nor even know you.

Sorry if that is a convoluted way of explaining it but I "think" that's it.

Liam O'Brien seemingly on Twitter now.

@Obrien_91

Is there a correlation between use of Twitter and not getting a chance in the first team?

Can we pin this?

And therein lies the answer to why our defense is complete pants.

Added Liam O'Brien, updated Sam Deering and an old Tommy Fraser.

Anyone else? I was thinking of adding Barnet fan tweeters, but they may not actually want hordes of lower league freaks outing them.

Talking of twitter on the Cox thread. More positivity from a player who has barely had a sniff since signing, good team spirit being shown hopefully.

Massive game 2day 4 us, 6 pointer We need 3pts 2 move away from the edge of the table #letshaveit''

Simon King added (s_kingy05).

Who is co-incidentally back at Gillingham and available for loan (will be free from injury in about 10 days).

Incidentally, we're looking for loanee defenders... And Gills have shown they will loan to a League 2 club (as long as they are struggling);

Gowon everyone - get your twitter love in going with Kingy! Woo him back...

(JoshWright4) is not on the opening post.

Not currently at a club.

Rumoured to be joining Peterborough shortly. Is he going to need a month somewhere to regain match fitness?

It's gonna take a hell of a lot of lovin'. He endured a torrent of abuse from the East Terrace last time he was back at Underhill.
