Are you surprised given how they are marketed and the ‘flavours’ available. https://www.vapeclub.co.uk/disposable-vape/lost-mary/

They should just make one flavour legal - dog shit , then see who is really ‘addicted’
Doesn’t it also cause early gum disease and rotting teeth due to high sugar content? We are setting up the next generation for a whole new set of health issues, sadly.

Not at all. I never under estimate the number of ways people find addictions :( . The same in the US, now millions are addicted in a very sad way to ‘pain killers’.

These should be marketed blandly, NOT sold in corner shops and the like, only to 18’s plus. Flouting rules the same as for selling alcohol.

Was it Todd Boehly and Paul Winstanley by any chance ???
I just don’t get why three guys would pay to watch the game live, when they don’t support the team just to do some live betting? Why didn’t they watch it on TV? When they came back after half time they had a long chat about what time they were going to leave…before resuming the betting talk.

Probably borrowed STH ???

Didn’t realise it was a pre-requisite for all 1901 season ticket holders to make as little noise as possible.

Shocking level of support for fans that pay an extortionate amount to sit in silence.

Vaping - no not meant to be but it’s water vapour and harmless so best to let it slide and chill. If you have a mouth to lung you can easily do it without letting out clouds of smoke too.
Totally disagree with this attitude, and not sure why you'd want to be so accommodating. Bollocks to the antisocial gits. If people have to do this filthy sh1t then just do it in permitted places. Not that hard an instruction to follow, surely.

I could probably write quite a lot about how grumpy I get with the people around me, but I won't. I will say chap near me was advised on the sly by a steward to make sure he blows his vape smoke into a scarf or something so as not to draw attention and he'd be fine. Kiddie behind seems to have taken up the habit and not received the same advice. From the replies on here is seems to becoming more prevalent.

Fair enough but filthy for people trying to do better is a bit harsh. Agree re the kids vaping as others have said. Maybe I’m just not so fussed on behaviours of others at football - it’s always been a place where usual etiquette isn’t always followed but I get it’s changed a bit now for many.
 


Maybe I’m just getting grumpy but I see so many vaping in seats during the game. Is it allowed or do the stewards just not bother challenging it?
The guy near to me who was having a loud conversation with his mates three rows below during the first half, was non stop vaping. Also kept getting up to stand in the aisle and continue the conversation until he phoned someone in the crowd and arranged to go and meet up with them 30 mins into the game. Thank goodness.

The guys behind me weren’t fans of either team but had bet on West Ham to win. Spent the first 65 mins talking non stop about the in-play bets they were putting on. Left on 65th minute saying Brighton are shite and they wouldn’t pay 80p for Mitoma, let alone 80million.

Guy in front to my right was obviously a West Ham fan. Constantly zooming in on their players to take pics. Jumping in his seat when they scored. Left just after the third goal. The guys next to him were Brighton but constantly getting up and down from their seats and spent very little time in the stands.
God, bet you are fun at parties! Who cares, just enjoy it, we are going on a European Tour!

I think lots of people care. I’m not talking about parties.

Some people solely focus on their own enjoyment and forget about how that might be affecting those around them. Those who maybe enjoying it less because of the behaviour of others.

Not really. I go to enjoy it with my pals and not worry what other people are doing.

How soon is now?
Anyone have WHU fans in home sections?
one was ejected from the East Lower in the second half. Didn’t notice him myself, but when the second goal went in a few fingers got pointed and a steward asked him lo leave(hid did without any fuss).
we got a load of verbal from a car full on the A27 as we were leaving. Had a WHU number plate and probably saw my sons home shirt poking out under his jacket. this lot were proper twats!
