@Sidler28 thinks the season should twit off already!

I have to admit it, and they say admitting it is the first step, I have an addiction. I definitely don't have an addiction to sex, or drugs or alcohol for that matter, nor is it gambling so you can stop worrying for my well being, not that you were. I'm not about to make some sad announcement that I'm addicted to football, though I probably am. No, my addiction is social media based.

Yes that's right people my addiction is a current trend in the world especially, it seems, in the footballing world. Of course I am talking about twitter. It really is the last thing I check at last night on my phone, the first thing I check, not only in the morning but also, as soon as I finish work or go on my break at work. I check it when I'm out with friends, sat with family just whenever. In recent times it has been the medium on which I have found out about the finding and killing of Osoma bin Laden, the recent tragedy in Norway and the brilliance of Stuart Broad's hat-trick.

(At this point the Sidler picks up his phone and checks Twitter- not that much has changed as it's only been 5 minutes since I last checked so what was I really expecting? (Added note that I made sure I checked twitter at this point both when I wrote the blog post and then when I typed it up)

Twitter has become big business in football and mainly for controversy. It all started when Darren Bent moaned, whilst still at Spurs, that his team had rejected a transfer offer from Sunderland even though he wanted to go. Now of course the man under the spotlight is @Joey7Barton or just Joey Barton for some of you. Some have criticised Barton's rantings against his employers as stupidity I see his use of twitter as a personal monologue and press conference brilliant. And not forgetting his own personal list of 'My favourite quotes'.

So in tribute to the likes of @Joey7Barton, @rioferdy5, @JackWilshere, @DiegoForlan7, @GNev2, @RobbieSavage8 and @WayneRooney I have decided to write my season preview in just 140 characters per team;

@AFC will face real struggle for 4th if Cesc no replaced well. Combative CB + CM also a must. Arsene must prove himself again with trophies

@AVFC have lost last seasons top 2 players but bought in quality in NZogbia + Given. Big Eck must hit the ground running. Top 8 at very best

@BRFC the Venky boys must continue to be patient with Steve Keane. They want top 10 + Goodwillie could fire them there. Hoilett is important

@BWFC if they get over last seasons end of year dip Bolton will be up there again. Will need another striker, hopefully Sturridge. Keep Cahill

@CFC how do you solve a problem like Torres? Aged squad and Essiens legs also issues but AVB will have Chelsea in the hunt. Need a CM and RB

@EFC keep Jagielka, get Saha fit, make sure Cahill is scoring, start well and find a new investort- otherwise all could go wrong at Goodison

@FFC welcome back Jol, you've been gone too long. Hodgson + Sparky did good things.Gera and Foster good signings but Europa could distract

@LFC lots of money spent but is it good money?Downing for 20 mil is over the odds but Suarez is world class. Should come 4th ahead of AFC

@MCFC callengers ready? Hell yeah they are- Aguero maybe the X factor they've missed. Will go well and finish at least 2nd even if Tev goes

@MUFC champions ready? of course, does SAF do it any other way? Young, de Gea and Jones good additions. Sneijder still to come? Would be great

@NUFC Nolan out, Jose + Joey to follow?Still not replaced Carroll though Ba is a good player.Tiote must be kept but lucky to get to 10th

@NCFC if Hoult cuts the Colman's Mustard then Norwich may stay up. Laberts side master of the late goal shows fantastic fitness. 15th?

@QPRFC oh fuck- Warnock's back in the Prem, can't stand him. Bernie won't give him any money though. Taarabt is excellent but should go down :D

@SCFC Tony Pulis is a genius and his team get results. Juggling Europa will be a big difficulty. Need another striker, could be C Cole

@SAFC plenty of experience signed and plenty of money spent. Bruce must start well or be under pressure. Either sacked or top 10 finish

@SWFC glad to have the Welsh side in the Prem and fans will be incredible but enjoy it while it lasts relegation beckons. Very talented manager

@THFC remember the Bernabeu and San Siro? Good you'll need the memory. Back into the pack despite Bale. Need a world class striker, LB + CB

@WBFC a great end to last season and need Odemwingie to keep firing.Chris Brunt is an excellent talent.Could still struggle but stay up

@WAFC I tipped them to stay up last season but can't rule it out this year. Need goals now NZogbia's gone but who from? Need more consistency

@WWFC up,down,up- what a last day it was. Doyle and Fletcher get goals and new signing Johnson will steady the defence. Will stay up again

@PL top 4 MUFC, MCFC, CFC, LFC. WAFC, SWFC. QPRFC bottom 3. Aguero, Hernandez, Suarez top scorers.

The Premier League is nearly here ladies and gents, and I for one can't bloody wait. If nothing else, it means they'll be something interesting on Twitter!
