Poetweet is the latest social media extravaganza to keep us entertained at SportsJOE and what a 20-minute thrill-ride it was. All you need to do is type in your Twitter handle and select one of three poem options.

The website analyses your tweets and does the rest. We typed in the handles of some of your favourite sport-stars and pundits. The results are magnificent.
