    Mental isn't it? I wonder if those people pay for a cinema ticket then stand in the lobby eating popcorn, or go to a gig and sit in the bogs listening to music on their phone

    W@nk wives, lot of em. Fact.
    Use the football as an excuse to get rid of the wife for a few hours, than get totally blindo to numb the fact they have to go back home to said w@nk wives.

    Ought to spend ticket money on a trip to t'knocking shop.

    It is funny when people I know go on the piss all day on Saturday & are in a right state missing chunks of both half’s & then are on Facebook & Twitter slating the managers tactics.

    If you’ve had more than a couple of pints then you’re opinion on the match isn’t really worthwhile for me.

    That Match Day Drinkers springs to mind

    I saw them too. Not just the odd person, but quite a few groups. Wasn’t just a couple of minutes into the game either, this was a good 10-15 minutes into both halves. Very odd.

    Yeah, in my own case I'd agree with that. I used to go on the piss and couldn't remember much more than the score.

    I feel like I've been hit with the barman's banjo every day of the week. How dare you call me a match day drinker?

    I go skiing a lot. There's loads of people who are happy to go on a "skiing" holiday, including buying all the clobber, but never go anywhere near a ski slope. They just go on the piss/pull for a week. They pay their way, and enjoy themselves, so why not?

    I've been to one race meeting in my entire life, at York. I never saw a single horse the entire day. Sad but true.

    maybe these people who go but are not really bothered about watching the match should let someone who wants to watch the game have their ticket then they can just stop in the pub ,simples ,
    ps there were a couple of teenage girls at Accrington who were constantly walking back and forth in the stand on their phone and oblivious to what was happening on the field ,why bother ,

    Where do you draw the line, though?

    I don't sing much, and I check my phone regularly to see whether Peterborough, Portsmouth and Sunderland are losing.

    Am I okay to attend matches? Please advise.

    Hard one to check, I guess the first step is to have a breathalyser on the gate. We can get drinkers out first then move on. Not sure if singing is a positive or not. Suppose as long as you are sat down to do it?
    Some inconsiderate folk actually make me move so they can go and get something to eat before the first half ends!
