We’ve all been there.
Driving in our swanky car with our swanky (buttonless) smartphone in our back pocket.
Then the phone gets a mind of its own, googles the image of a Mercedes, saves it to the photo library, opens the Twitter app, attaches the picture and sends it out to 822,000 people.
Believable, right?
Well that’s the excuse that Joleon Lescott is sticking to after he posted the above tweet after Aston Villa had just been hammered 6-0 by Liverpool.
Shockingly, supporters weren’t buying it.
@JoleonLescott HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAH THAT EXCUSE MATE

@JoleonLescott So while your phone was in your pocket, it searched Mercedes S63 AMG Coupe, saved a pic, and then tweeted it out? Riiiight…
