I just typed the following into google,
football forums username "theacademic" and it turned up with ten pages worth. As he has been posting surveys for the last ten years, he/she/it is clearly a lecturer not a student. Do your own research you lazy git.
Im guessing, male, mid thirties, man bun, patchy beard, and drives an old VW beetle. And currently salivating whilst waiting for Glastonbury.

In other words a bit of a c**t.
