A Scottish girl with the username @Moysey on Twitter has reportedly faced a volley of abuses from outraged fans after been mistaken for under-fire Manchester United boss David Moyes' daughter.

The outraged fans have reportedly sent Sarah messages ranging from being branded as a 'c**t', 's**g' and being told to 'go die and get AIDs', which forced her to tweet that she is not related to the under-fire Scot.

According to the Daily Star, Sarah tweeted that people should stop mentioning her in their tweets adding that she is pretty sure that Moyes has his own account.

Sarah is reportedly crossing her fingers, along with thousands of angry fans, and hoping that Moyes is given the boot.

Sarah said that when Moyes first moved to United, she would receive about 10 to 15 tweets a day when United played but she never really bothered about it as it was never really abusive earlier.

However, Sarah, who shares the same second name with Moyes, said that since United's home loss to Manchester City at Old Trafford, the tweets have gone off the rails adding that she just wants her normal Twitter life and hopes that Moyes does not last too much longer.

Sarah has been reportedly called Moyesy since she was in secondary school and despite the abuse she is receiving Sarah has taken an oath to stick by her Twitter name, the report added.
