Obsession with selfies 10:18 - Feb 10 with 1671 viewscaptainfantastic

Was at Doncaster on Tuesday and within minutes there's a queue of grown men with no affiliation with Man Utd wanting selfies with OGS & Carrick to get a few likes on social media.

I get it for kids would make their week etc, but honestly he's just there to watch his mates team play football and has to deal with that. Leave them alone

Famous footballers go to a football match and football supporters ask for a photo.

If they were with their kids then I’d agree with you but I would be very surprised if they minded to pose for a few photos.

Isn't this the new version of an "autograph"? It just seem to be the modern thing to do at the moment.

At least its football related and not just "someone from Love Island" haha

Plus, when I see people asking for autographs, I often think "well that's going on ebay". At least a photo is a personal thing.

Selfies aside, I thought it was quite nice Ole and Carrick went to support KMac. Probably happens more than we hear about in football but for a cynical old bastard such as myself I thought it was rather heart-warming.

Any man taking a selfie for any reason should be immediately deported.

That's a very cynical viewpoint Gav. Maybe it's more for a lasting memory of that special moment they met their idol?


While I'm here, is it ok to link to Ebay listings for some old signed town programmes I've got?

You've spelt 'castrated and THEN deported' wrong.

Ought it not be spelled? Possibly not, I don't know.

EDIT: I've just asked Suzie Dent, and she says I'm wrong. (so did Suzie Denned, actually.)

You must get people asking for selfies with you all the time when you're out and about Gav?

Both 'spelt' and 'spelled' are correct spellings.

Whatever it would be it is worth more to me.

My autograph collection is going nowhere.

I still look through it sometimes.

I used to send off pictures out of magazines with a polite note and a stamped addressed envelope to various players plus I collected autographs at Portman Road.

When I was young I had Phil Ham hand deliver a signed copy of his book before a game. TWTD... I wonder what ever became of Phil.
