Twitter used to be the playground of internet geeks, but now everyone and everything feels a need to share their views on football, food, and feta. Here The Tab has compiled what we think are the Liverpool-based accounts you really ought to be following by now.

Most sports clubs’ feeds are just notices of next training sessions, unsurprisingly. But pair the two hockey teams and you’ve got a full on battle of the genders. Who’s better, men or women?

Well done everyone for this week! Hard work pays off! So proud.

Who doesn’t love Med? Okay, it’s not to everyone’s taste, but they like to instagram photos of half-naked girls (yet gain, not to everyone’s taste), but their DJ Matt has a few words of wisdom

If you want to hear the scousers behind the bar say anything other than “that’s a dead good offer, I swear” head to Faculty and The Blob Shop, or risk being barred
