EPL Teams - Twitter Sentiment Dataset

Introduction

Contains tweets of all teams in the English Premier League with their team hashtag. i.e. #Arsenal, #Chelsea.
Useful for analysing certain events and how they affect supporter behaviour/sentiments.
I've added an additional field called polarity which has the sentiment computed from the text field.
Feel free to explore! Feedback is much appreciated!

Content

Each row represents a tweet. Creation Dates of Tweets Range from 12/07/2020 to 19/09/2020. Will update on a Monthly cadence.

• The Team
  can be derived from the file_name field.
• The Date at which the tweet was created can be got from created_at field.
• The Search Query used to query the Twitter Search Engine can be got from search_query field.
• The Tweet Full Text can be got from the text field.
• The Sentiment can be got from polarity field. (I've used the Vader Model from NLTK to compute this.)
