The highs and lows of football. It's bad enough suffering the game itself but we'll be suffering the Scunny and Gillingham games too with all the updates coming in on the transistors in the ground.
I can never get a signal inside a ground on my phone but I'm sure many will be getting updates via 21st century devices.
"it's still 2-0 to Wigan here and we're entering stoppage time.. they're already deep into stoppage time at Bramall Lane where the blades are level at 0-0 with Scnuthorpe.. here's Brownhill though in midfield, his pass goes astray and Wigan can break out left with Wildschut... but there's been a goal at Bramall Lane.. over to Andy Giddings.." "it's the blades in front, Rob.. right at the death, and it's former Barnsley man Jay Maccavelli with a bullet header"
My ***** phone doesn't help. Everyone around me are getting half time scores, checking their bets or posting on the BBS while mine can't muster a decent attempt to do anything. Even the scoreboard is more informative than my worthless piece of crap.
it's alright for you lot.... ...I've got the Barnsley match, plus Scunny and Gillingham, AND watching my daughter playing in the final of the Women's League cup at Rotherham. And they wonder why I'm balding and what little hair I have left is grey! Here's hoping for the right result from all the games.
If you remember the Huddersfield game, the mobile network was flooded and no-one could get any info off their smartphones. Transistor radios > smartphones when that happens.
Wigan down to ten man and we drawing 1-1 and others are. We fart about for ten mins then news of a goal elsewhere... Always go for the kill
Am I the only one who doesn't know what a "Miles Jedinak Moment" is? I've not slept because of it, and Google has failed me. Please help!
Jedinak scored the crucial winning goal for Palace against Peterborough in their 3-2 victory three years ago on the last day of the season. That goal meant our 2-2 draw at Huddersfield brought safety for both clubs from relegation.
Dont think I could take another one of those - at Huddersfield watching us - no hope of updates on my phone relying on updates from people with a good old fashioned wireless to tell us what was happening - knowing Jedinak had scored but not whether the game had finished - far rather we go into the last few minutes 3-0 up
