Saw a thread on here a while ago that said it 'couldn't be done', obviously it can looking at this.

 

Let's be 'avin it, in a go-ahead, customer focused, can-do stylee.

 

Only for me before the game, at HT and afterwards but a real boon to all those that can't watch the game without their phone in their hand.

Yes, we should be in this.

 

Typical of Man City though, their solution is convoluted and, seeing as BT are running it, no doubt top whack.

 

Liverpool are already using a better, more configurable, solution at Anfield with Xirrus APs.

 

Give me a week and I could plan coverage for St. Marys without any issues, probably using Meraki for pure ease and scalability or maybe the new Rukus APs for the mesh (incredible performance in high density).

 

Isn't this what AAP3 are for?

From the abject lack of any technical or specific detail (my bull**** bingo detector is going off like crazy), I suspect it would be a bit beyond them. Unless it involves servicing a solution.

Are people really that dependent on their phones? Hard to believe that people coped before mobile phones and the internet.

 

Huh, in my day we had to put up with little hooks with letters around the edge of the pitch where they hung the half-time scores. You had to buy a programme to find out which games the letters referred to. And none of these match replays on MOTD when you got home, if you missed a goal then you'd never see it again.

I was being sarcastic in the last bit. If people can't do without instant connectivity for the duration of a football match they're pretty sad.

 

People like to check scores and stuff like that.

 

Don't they have wifi at White Hart Lane? I vaguely remember it from when I was there
