Laura Woods issues brutal response after Man Utd fan asks her to follow them on Twitter

LAURA WOODS conjured a glorious winner against a Manchester United fan who asked her to follow them.

The TNT Sports presenter even had to fend off a supporter of her own club Arsenal - before delivering the KO blow in a strange exchange online about her posing for selfies with admirers.

Laura is popular with viewers for matching her football knowledge with banter, notably in her coverage of the Champions League and the Prem.

And she showed again a witty comment can triumph in verbal sparring during a bizarre confrontation on X, formerly known as Twitter.

A follower of the ex-talkSPORT star complained about Laura posing with a fan on an evening out and then following her back on social media.

He asked if the broadcaster "hated poor people" - because the profile of the female fan who asked for the pic suggested strong political opinions that he disliked.

Other followers scoffed at the idea Laura should check someone's opinions after they ask for a selfie.

And she herself posted: "Bloody hell. It’s mad I’ve even got to address this. 

"This girl politely asked me for a photo on a night out. When that happens I always say yes. I never ask for anyone’s political allegiances. It’s none of my business.

"Sometimes I’ll retweet the photos or share on Instagram."

Laura also argued that anyone who complained about this behaviour was "trying very hard to be offended".

She told an Arsenal fan: “I followed her back, yes. I am also allowed to follow others.

"And no, I still haven’t surveyed her tweets, because I don’t care. What kind of conspiracy do you think this is?”

A Red Devils' supporter then joined in with: “I say you follow me back Laura just to even things out.”

That's when she produced the perfect put-down by joking: “I’ve definitely got an even number of simps at the mo, but will keep you in mind.”
