It's such a shame that certain mis-guided corporate teams react in this way. As you said, Twitter accounts held by the players provides the fans with a really credible and trusted source of information... now all those fans, who were following players such as Rooney, will have now seen that link severed. These fans will be left with a bitter taste in their mouths and they will have yet another reason to lose a little bit more faith in their club. Surely they would have benefitted more by having a few behind closed doors Twitter training sessions, to educate the players in a few basic Social Media do's and don'ts? What with a corporate team like this and 'boot-licking morons' like Neville, they are surely doomed to become the second team in Manchester in a few years!
