Coventry City "influencers" (43 Viewers)

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Is this not the same guy who has been hosting all those training ground games for Coventry Building Society, and who also appeared on that quiz show hosted by Alex Brooker?

Yeah that guy YourMateLee was also on that quiz show, didn't say a lot but when he did he got the questions wrong.

Basically what I am trying to say is I guess I am okay with someone changing their support to their hometown club.

 

[Evo1883]

As I said, if he did ever support united or .liverpool or anyone but now supports us then I am ok with this.

I welcome anyone who wants to support City

Long story short our fans dont get to be judge and jury on who is ok to make content and who isnt and who is a proper fan and who isnt , you either watch or you dont




The mob mentality on twatter is frankly weird

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Nicotine is addictive, and I think vapes usually have it to satisfy that craving. But they don't contain the other toxic stuff that makes cigarettes deadly.

Vapes? The juries out on that one, Doctors are saying it's too early to tell whether it's going to do any long-term damage.

I don’t have a problem with anyone seeing sense and supporting us. I have a problem with them acting like they’ve been in the trenches when in actual fact they’ve been at Old Trafford or the Emirates or whatever.

Support who you like, but don’t appoint yourself as authority on an institution you were indifferent to until it became advantageous, and then pretend like you weren’t supporting someone else until ~2024.

No doubt there’ll be loads more of them popping up over the summer.

Do they though, watched someone their stuff and it doesn't do that.

You’ll have to be more specific, I don’t know who you’re talking about exactly.

 

[TomRad85]

I wonder if the numbers on this forum will swell now we are officially a giant of English football again? Wouldn't be surprised to see some former Birmingham and Leicester fans joining the party, it's just a short drive so the pull of a successful football club in the region might be too much to resist.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

I cannot stand vlogging and influencer culture, it is not for me - But it is a part of modern day life and the only one that has documented the full journey is Alex Craig

Hang on a minute are you saying that you're NOT ALEX CRAIG.

A couple of blokes in front of us at Blackburn were vaping and blowing their foul, raspberry scented steam over us all game. Pricks. No thought for anyone else.

I'm happy for anyone to inhale whatever toxin they wish, but I don't want them to blow it all over me and my son.

 

[Adge]

Its not just him that winds me up, its the people that play up to it. The sausage thing died a death over a year ago, and the place that does them is shut down

Instead of ending it he recycles old pics of the same meal and you have idiots like 'Love it Martin' 'Guaranteed 3 points' etc, fuckoff man.

Encouraging idiocy is a trait of the current general public and it shouldn't be

Stupid is as stupid does.

 

[viridisman]

Nah, definitely is, he's just doubling down on the old incognito

 

[Joy Division]

More the merrier if people want to join the journey, can only be good for the city and for those to pass down their support to future generations.

However, those using it as a personal vehicle to self promote for their own gain on social media can get to fuck.

 

[Nick]

Obviously tom grennan gets a pass

A few others im sure

Nope. Same as Gus khan.

Man united fans.

Not saying they can and can't make it. Just that they are gimps.

That’s all of them then. Not sure why people separate some from the others-aren’t they all after “clout” and “views”?

I'm talking about those who have recently joined the bandwagon specifically.

 

[OffenhamSkyBlue]

Matt sb and Alex Craig’s ones from Friday are brilliant

No Sophie, though

 

[Flying Fokker]

No Sophie, though

Their following is certainly better than most.

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

People who are offended by vaping. I don't get.
I'm not a vaper but give then a break most are trying to get away from deadly nicotine.

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

Come on mate , its twitter

Will you make up your mind up as to who you are ffs

 

[Grendel]

It's not easy mate, I done it by being really cool.

Just have a swimming pool once and be really old. This actually shows how bullshit this is.

Michael Barrymore's new life as a mega-influencer on TikTok

Michael Barrymore is walking his beloved whippet Lara near his new home in Devon. He is a little thinner in the face now with, understandably, less hair than when he was in his pomp.

The money some of these people are making is off the charts

 

[Ash]

Each to their own but I honestly can’t understand the appeal of vlogging or influencing(?) on a game. Standing there reducing the whole visual experience to be behind a tiny phone screen seems bizarre to me.

Also, watched a few of them and the celebrations always seem muted (particularly that Alex lad!) so they can capture the “scenes” and “limbs” without shakey footage. What’s the point, surely you go to lose yourself in the moment with your family/mates?

 

[Fergusons_Beard]

Got absolutely no problem with ‘new’ fans or ‘converts’ (not from W*SPS) can only be good for the club.

But these fuckin influencers who pretend to be lifelong fans can get fucked-shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near the ground.

Just attention seeking bellends who can’t be arsed to get a proper job and see jumping on the band wagon as way to gain fame.

There are other routes.

Can you murder bum someone in a swimming pool?

Trying to give it up tbh

 

[shmmeee]

Just when I thought I’d seen all the internet had to offer!

Whatever happened to Craig Danny he was all over Facebook and the like a while back

 

[AJB1983]

Beardy Lee seems like the biggest wanker on the planet. Never saw him at city games before 2024 yet now pretends to be Mr Coventry City. Fucking weapon.

Genuine Question…. How does he get tickets for away games then? Or is it just big allocation ones?

he was near me at Blackburn (although thankfully not close enough to bother me)

 

[AJB1983]

He was there on Friday, few rows in front of me in the upper tier, didn't see him doing any filming.

He had a go pro in his hand even before kick off.

 

[clint van damme]

Hopefully getting some help. I genuinely mean that.

 

[AJB1983]

I'm really not a fan of influencer culture at all, but we all need to wise up to the modern game, and how much of a role these people play in driving awareness and thus the commercial value of and opportunity for the club.

The ones we have right now might be a bit small fry, but high chance they will grow in the Prem, and even attract a whole new breed too.

You only need to look at how much Mark Goldbridge sold his company for to get a sense of the value placed on audience building like this.

Don't think you need to like it, but you do need to tolerate it.

Mad thing about goldbridge is that he’s done all this despite never going to a Man Utd game - his videos are him watching it at home…

smart really.

 

[AJB1983]

All these influencers do is influence me to not watch any of their stuff.

i do chuckle to myself though that they tend to wear the old or retro shirts to show how they supported them for ages….

I’ve got two of the new retro shirts, from seasons before my first actual game. Because they’re ace and wished I’d had them originally.
