“Now football is finally in the bucket,” complains a pendant on Twitter. A tweet by Twitter user “Dan” causes a particular stir. There you can see how on a grandstand in the upper tier digital banners take over the choreo of the fans instead of posters. Dan”, who is also a fan of FC Liverpool, settles accounts with the citizens. “Digital banners… a whole new level…nothing is much more embarrassing than this shit.”
Tweet is well received by users
The assessment was shared by thousands of fans within a few hours. Meanwhile, Tweet has been retweeted almost 4000 times and licked more than 12,000 times.
In the other blocks, you won’t see any banners. The ManCity fans only wave a few flags and hold scarves up.
