KelvinsRightGlove Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 (edited) #SaintsFC becomes the first British football club to permanently display our official hashtag in our stadium seating! The move is our latest social media initiative and is designed to increase engagement both with and between our supporters. #saintsfc Cue the hate...

KelvinsRightGlove Posted 22 August, 2013 Author Share Posted 22 August, 2013 Doesnt really bother me? people are so fecking miserable. Kind of my thoughts. Does it really matter?

Saint Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 I think it's kind of stupid. The hashtag is a newfangled fad. I don't hate it though. It's just a bit meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pahars_Legend Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 Been watching saints for ten years and I have never seen the words on the white seats because people are sat on them. Don't understand the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eharty9 Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 If your moaning about this my guess is your a bloke in your 40s who likes to moan because like it or not this doesn't affect anybody in a negative way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 F*cking stupid idea, it looks gash. But, it'll be covered when the cameras are on it, apart from the odd photo specifically for social media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey88 Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 Personally i have loved the Southampton twitter feed over the last few months, lots o great stuff on there! Very few clubs put in the amount of time and effort that w do into it and i think it's something we should be proud of as a club. If this draws more peoples attention to it then that's great as far as i'm concerned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint-Armstrong Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 I prefer "#SAINTSFC" to "FLYBE" or "FRIENDS PROVIDENT" in fairness. Should've just left it as Saints. A bit of a.... strange decision, but it's hardly a big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 A gesture designed to raise the profile of the club on one of the platforms it is using to engage with its own fans It literally affects none of us however I will agree with the sentiments around better phone reception around the stadium and information around the things that really do impact us like away allocations etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ssaints Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 It does look like the '#' and 'FC' have been added to the SAINTS that was already there. But when the stadium is full and rocking who cares?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trader Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 On a more positive note - at least the nets have retained the stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stepgar Posted 22 August, 2013 Share Posted 22 August, 2013 What a load of bed wetting we have on here. Ridiculous! Who cares whats on the seats, you are barely going to see it anyway, calm the **** down. Crikey! Other fans must think we are total knobs for acting this way. The club have just spent over 35 million on new players and all you can do is moan. Why don't you **** off and support the club down the road.
