Follow Friday: It’s Conor Mortimer

Every Friday we’ll point you in the right direction for some of the most entertaining sportsmen and women on the Twitter.

A PICTURE SAYS a thousand words, so why bother trying to force that kind of novel into just 140 characters?

Conor Mortimer is a great man for the the twitpics. A quick intro, snap, and boom. You’re transported into the wonderful world of a county footballer.

You already know from that infamous t-shirt that he loves Michael Jackson, but don’t forget about Liverpool and his Mazda RX8.

Also, did you know he hates training? Not the football part, but the getting up early and going out in the cold bit.

Yes, he may have broken one of MJ Tierney’s golden rules of Twitter by taking a photo of his dogs, but you gotta give the people what they want.

So, if you want decent discussion on Parnell’s, Mayo or maybe even Luis Suarez you know who to follow, it’s @conmort of course.
