England's innings and 78-run win over Australia in the fourth Ashes Test at Trent Bridge, which gave them an unbeatable 3-1 lead in the five-match series, was completed before lunch on Saturday's third day of a scheduled five.
Lehmann decided he wanted to use the 'free' Sunday to take in a match between Stoke City and Liverpool on the opening weekend of the new Premier League season.
"Would like to go to Stoke v Liverpool with a couple of people anyone help? @stokecity or @LFC can you please retweet," he wrote on Twitter.
Twitter user Anthony Dutton responded by posting: "Aren't you playing tomorrow (Sunday)...Oooops sorry."
Meanwhile Dave Kinsella said: "You should be reviewing how you lost the #Ashes2015 to one of the worst English side in history."
And with England all-rounder Ben Stokes having taken six wickets in Australia's second innings in Nottingham, it was no surprise when Matt Laing tweeted: "Maybe better off analyzing Ben Stokes not Stoke City."
"Probably not the best timing to be sending out a tweet like that, maybe take the team with u to learn their defensive game," tweeted Brent McGrath.
An unamused Lehmann responded to the jibes by tweeting: "Thanks so much for the abuse, was asking a question that people might help. Don't bother now! Thanks again people for being so abusive."
But Stoke themselves suggested Sunday they might be able to assist Lehmann, with a post on their Twitter feed saying: "Hi Darren, can you follow us please. We may have some good news for you.
