Niall Horan

One of the more bizarre Twitter beefs has erupted overnight as Niall Horan, one of the former stars of One Direction, has gotten involved in a social media spat with Leeds United Football Club.

It all began with Wednesday night’s set of Championship football fixtures, in which Derby County – whom Horan supports – won 4-1 away at much-fancied West Bromwich Albion. Clearly overjoyed with seeing his team cement their position as title challengers, the singer told his 39 million followers “@dcfcofficial are a dream to watch play”.

Irish radio presenter Thomas Crosse replied to his tweet, asking him to “send Leeds United a bit of luck” – the team who went top of the league the same night with their 2-0 victory over Ipswich Town.
