    Quick courtesy question about match threads.

    Hi all. Hope you all have a fab afternoon after that win.

    I've noticed recently that I seem to be commenting on key moments (goals etc) in match threads quicker than most and it isn't by 5-10 seconds - it's a full minute or two.

    I'm guesstimating that I am watching it on the telly and others are maybe watching it via websites/streams and such.

    Has getting "spoilers" been an annoyance for anyone? If so, I'd happily desist from updating match threads until the end of the season. I won't notice unless folks speak up so thought I would ask.

    If nobody has even noticed and thus it's a non-issue, happy days and "as you were" - cheers!

    More importantly - up the Reds!!!!! Still in every comp!!!!!

    I personally don't mind them. It gives me some form of relief when we're playing shit and out of nothing we score to take the lead

    I've never had an issue with spoilers in the match thread.

    Making a whole thread to gloat about your TV subscription though is a bit tasteless.

    I only really see others posting about a goal when I pick my phone up to post about it myself. Crack on.

    It's called a 'humblebrag', mate.

    It's darn near an artform if done right.

    Post away on match-threads and don't worry about spoiling us cheapos)

    I don't join the match thread, generally.
    Too much excitement & stress when I'm watching us play.
