    Friday Twitter Phone

    I've twitter on my phone but I have to be somewhere Friday night so I will miss the games. I am just wondering what is the best Twitter to follow on a Friday night to get updates on all the games (I won't be following clubs) as I want it to be as neutral as can be. The LOI Blog is an obvious one as is extratimenews. Im just wondering is there any other twitter that gives the service that I desire.

    It's okay, you can relax. Harps v Limerick isn't until Saturday.

    There's no over ridding twitter account. Follow the likes of the League one and all the LOI jounalists (check to see who other longford fans follow). Most clubs do some sort of updating too

    If you've a good enough phone, go for live scores just. www.futbol24.com updates scores within seconds of them actually happening. I would love to know how they do it.

    They pay people to stay on the phone and watch the match. Think its about €50 per game

    Call a spade a spade. LOI Blog wholesale robs stuff from Extratime or did that last time I looked at it.

    Extratime are pretty fast.

    If you just want quick score updates on your phone, the futbol24 app ( Android / iTunes ) is very good. I never used it on mobile before but had a look now and can't fault it.

    I know of somebody that does it and I think it must pay more than that for it to be worth it for him.

    I think it was £75 a game when I was asked to do it about 5 seasons ago but spending 90 mins going attack / defend / attack I wouldnt do it for any money

    Whilst the likes of futbol24 and livescore may be very slightly faster. They have no detail or scorer. They usually wait for us (Extratime) to confirm the scorer and then copy. For proof of this, any time we make a mistake, most of the live score type sites replicate it.

    The futbol24 app isn't faster than extratime because it doesn't update instantly

    Slightly unrelated but does anyone have any idea on how Bet365 update pretty much every single game right down to the detail of which side has the ball/on the attack/ has a throw in.

    Futbol24s app buzzs the moment a goal is scored once you put that game into your favourites. That works a treat for me. Don't need to keep checking to see if a goal has been scored in any games

    Yeah, big fan of futbol24 and its push notifications

    On the fee for updating sites, it was baout 6/7 years ago a friend did it. Was €50 then (plus a phone). Good to see its increased
