Arsenal have more Twitter followers than any other club in England

Sky Sports having taken a look at Premier League clubs and their social media reach and it's the Gunners who come out on top with over 6.1m Twitter followers - more than any other football club in England.

London neighbours Chelsea are the second most-followed with 5.94m Twitter users subscribing to their posts, while Manchester United are third with 5.78m followers - more than twice the number of their local rivals Manchester City, who are fifth with 2.6m followers.

I think Arsenal also have about 1 million members registered at their club from abroad.

Due to their established Premier League status it's no surprise that Swansea have so many followers. They will largely be businesses interested in sponsorship or affiliation plus bots that are just scanning links to the Premier League. If Cardiff had enjoyed the same success Cardiff have recently then we'd likely have more followers than they have.

Unfortunately, we haven't so we don't. Never mind! :bluescarf:

More than double, pretty good but we need to be on par or above Southampton, WBA, Stoke, Norwich etc, these teams are the yardstick these days, don't suppose there's a list floating about?
