r0cafella Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Not sure why people filming stuff has any relevance to the stadium we play in mind. Some proper pearl clutching stuff going on We can thank social media, camera phones, celebrity culture for the Increased prevalence of it. It’s only going to become more and more widespread as well as the generations to come engage with football in very different ways than those who came before.

Just watched the YouTube video of Oasis Knebworth 96 (Sunday) last night. I was there. Not a camera phone in sight. Living in the moment, no distractions. Halcyon daze!

In the Other Games thread it was quite rightly pointed out how embarrassing it was that Man Utd fans were getting selfies with Spurs players after they got rinsed y’day It was also suggested that a new stadium would mean we would get the same doylem behaviour However, the camera obsessed doylems filming for socials rather than supporting the team already get their hands on tickets and walk amongst us in our current home We got a vital pelanty, they watch it through a phone Edited 57 minutes ago by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucasol Posted 56 minutes ago Share Posted 56 minutes ago I’m hoping a new ground with more tickets allows a lot of legacy fans the chance to get hold of ballot tickets rather than just these quilts with their social media culture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would people rather be absolutely shit and have no day trippers or be successful and have some? know what I’m choosing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groundhog63 Posted 51 minutes ago Share Posted 51 minutes ago There's at least 30k people in there, every week, sat on their hands. Week in week out. Season ticket holders. Locals. "True fans" It's not "tourists" causing the silence and we're not "the best fans in the world" That's bullshit. We are very very good when we're on it. Probably the best. But far too often we need the team, or the ref, to give it a boost. Probably the main factor in the demise of ground atmosphere, across the board, is all seating stadia. Added to that is seats, permanently, occupied by season ticket holders who've sat there for decades. Added to that are, aforementioned, season ticket holders who've sat there throughout the Ashley years when the life and soul of "the crowd" was crushed. The camera malarkey is just the way it is now. I couldn't be arsed but I'm 60. Each to their own tho. Ps PSG game was, and will probably remain, unrivalled in how fantastic you lot were. On that night, at least, you were the best in the world. Still full of "tourists", as well 😉 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
