trex Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I was at the match on Saturday and the guy in front off me spent more time playing with his phone than watching the entertainment on the pitch.I remember the good old days when you went to watch football. Just leave you're phones in you're pockets please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Gin Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 This isn't exclusive to football. People go to clubs/festivals/gigs now and stand with their hand in the air recording it on their phone instead of dancing and enjoying the music.

kila Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I check mine periodically but when there's a delay on the pitch, which there were many on Saturday... It's only a quick check for scores elsewhere though. I do see folk with it out the entire game, but it's a generation problem and the younger ones being brought up with smart phones have serious addiction problems.

alicante jambo Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I remember years ago back in the 80s we used to see guys with small radios at the football passing on the other results.Now its ipads and other fancy stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
...a bit disco Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Check mine for Flashscore and to keep an eye on my accas. To be fair, I did have it out more than usual on Saturday.

Just leave you're phones in you're pockets please. Out of interest, why does it bother you what others do? Did it hamper your view of the game or your enjoyment of the fine football on display? I took a mate to his first ever match on Saturday and he, for reasons that are nobody else's business, spent a fair bit of time texting during the match. It might be hard to understand, but some people have other things going on in their lives that may require a bit of attention during a football match.

Des' Dad Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Very annoying when sitting at Tynecastle and being told the scores from other games around the country. When I'm at a match I don't care about anything other than Hearts and I will find out the other scores when my game is finished.

Tiberius Stinkfinger Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Don't see much wrong with playing on your phone, especially if you can't go to football and enjoy it unless we win 5-0 every week like the majority on here. As a happy clapper I even enjoy a 0-0 without the use of a mobile, I also enjoy the score updates from others around me. Phones are fine by me.

Just leave you're phones in you're pockets please. I ony go to the games these days for the better data signal. Maybe if you take you are phone into the game then it can be in you are pocket and vibrate when goals are scored. One thing I hate is when people around you are obsessing over EPL scores.
