Crystal Palace's cheeky gag on Twitter after General Election

With the transfer window open and silly season in full swing, several football players and clubs have begun using their official social media channels to nip spurious transfer rumours in the bud.

To that end, a rather large rumour was sparked in the aftermath of the General Election result when a tweet from the BBC's political editor Laura Kuenssberg appeared to confirm that Prime Minister Theresa May would be arriving at Palace on Friday afternoon.

Just officially confirmed - she ll go to Palace at 1230

Not so, it would seem.
