Fan Cam

[CollinsLCFC]

The fan cam doesnt bother me at all. Let the kids enjoy themselves at half time.

 

It's the firing of freebies into the crowd that annoys me. Again it is great for the kids, but there is a older bloke near me who will go out of his way to make sure he gets 3-4 T Shirts, every game, using his height/reach advantage to make sure he can get them before the kids do. Why do you need so much free tack?

 

Also there is an elderly woman who will clap her hands and click her fingers at the staff firing the shirts into the crowd, demanding she gets several every game. I enjoy it when she doesnt get any and starts effing and blinding. She once had a go at a Steward for picking one up and passing it to a little kid who was desperate to get one, rather than her.

Just moaned about it another thread before I saw this. Really weird behaviour from the announcer to see a kid do some Fortnite dance and then telling him to do a floss as well.

It’s good advice 

preferably after main meals though

What would you prefer the club to ignore kids, and let the drift off to become supporters of Liverpool, Man Utd, Man City, Chelsea etc.

 

The more fun they have the more likely they are going to grow up a City supporter, that good enough for me.

I don’t know how I managed to become a Leicester fan then because there was no fan cam when I was going as a young kid.

Me nether, but I can't see the problem with it and think it a good thing to keep kids interested in football.

Can’t work our if this is satirical or not?

 

Quite frankly, the game has ****ing gone IMO

If they're being taken to the game they're already in tbh. 

 

I didn't need Fan Cam to entertain me as a kid, I was just thrilled to be going to the football with my old man. 

 

That was enough to make me fall in love with the place. I didn't need pandering to.

4 out of 150+ have voted positively meaning the rest are either indifferent or against it. Time to re-think LCFC as it’s obviously not resonating with your audience...

What because of a camera showing a coupe of fans at halftime?

Maybe but I can't see why people are overly bothered, if it makes some kids happy so what.

 

I fell in love with City listening on the radio and reading the Mercury, even before I went to see my first game in 91.

 

But time change and the world changes.

All humour aside, I couldn't really give a ****. I'd rather we didn't pander to the YouTube, micro transaction generation of the games industry but in all fairness I doubt the announcer even knows he's doing that.

I think you and I both know that I wasn’t just talking about this specifically, although it’s a good barometer of where we’re currently at with it all. 

 

But this is still a bit odd in my opinion. If kids need stuff like this to fall in love with a football club nowadays then i’m so out of touch with modern culture, I’m basically under a rock, clearly.

Would rather watch The Birch doan interview with a former ex-player/manager or some children doing a baton relay around the pitch than the Fan Cam.

Clearly, the Fan Cam idea was done by some IT Assistant who wanted to convince his manager to put his idea in the recent home games to really get popular attention to it from the fans..

Me too, but the world has changed, it's just the way modern life is.

 

I was happy catching up on footy on ceefax back in the day.

I think it’s about the best argument for not doing anything about stopping climate change.

I can see what you're saying but you'd perhaps need a bigger sample size considering there's usually approx 30,000 home fans in the ground...

I sat in my seat shaking my head yesterday. In any other environment you’d rightly get locked up if a middle aged bloke was asking kids to dance for them whilst recording it 

[StanSP]

Why are people only just noticing or saying something now, by the way?

 

Pretty sure it's been there since the start of the season?

I only stayed up at HT for this game. Could not believe what I was seeing.

Might as well go around the ground upskirting instead and call it Fanny Cam

I only noticed it at the Chelsea game. Rarely leave my seat at HT. ??‍♂️

Ahem, that's a premium service you'd need to register, and pay for, on Lcfc.com if you're not able to experience the match day experience in person!

I’ve seen it a few times. But yesterday was the first time it made my toes curl
