    It will go to the last game of the season, we will all be sat, heads bowed trying to get a mobile signal looking for the results.
    I can feel the tension already…..,,,

    Ha ha.

    its dependent on network. 02 and Vodafone dont work at all during HT and barely during game.

    EE (including the likes of Lyca Mobile who piggy back onto them and use their masts) are fine, even at HT

    I know it’s a phone signal
    It’s what I’ve done for the last 10 years.
    What I should have said is get some 5G on a decent network.
    I love my scan through here and the HT scores while everybody round me gets blank screens
    I even get mine free on my BT supplied work phone which annoys people even more.

    Doesn’t matter what network you’re on
    They all have black spots
    O2 has a massive dead area over VP

    Yes, was with O2 for years and could never get a signal in the ground, other than the concourse area.

    I switched to EE last year and never had a problem since.

    No major problem with 3, sometimes a bit slow in the concourse in the Main Stand, but fine where my seat is in the block.

    Absolutely, we live rurally and the ONLY mobile signal we can receive is O2. Vodaphone / EE etc, don’t work at all . Oddly the SIM card built into the car (VW) does as it picks up or transmits signals from all masts .I always thought they shared masts , apparently not!

    Who needs a mobile signal? If you’ve got enough City Points they’ll give you the WiFi code.

    Phone makers like Xiamoi, OnePlus, and Oppo Realme, some of the most popular in China, are all collecting large amounts of sensitive user data via their respective operating systems, as are a variety of apps that come pre-installed on the phones.
