Posted the story on real fanatics. One poster (who some will know by another name) says:

Great news....at least we don't have to endure adverts now.

Ah so its just a share of a Little Richard and Jeff Smith post. FFS.

Get some targeted ads bought for crying out loud. The boss does it and he claims every time he does it we get bookings out of it and it pays for itself after one booking. Its a no brainer.

So a targeted ad then. Are you on the drungs?

Given your geographical location you will get it and others wont. They wont have paid for it to be nationwide.

Of course I am.

Nothing wrong with targeted ads is there. You would not target beef sausages at a veggie would you.

Stated on this thread a few days ago they should be trying that approach. Common sense has prevailed.

As for getting it because you follow them, you can choose all sorts to target it towards (age, location etc.), you dont have to be a follower on their page.

I get ads for things in Sheffield despite not being a fan of their page. Crack the Code Escape Room was one I had earlier.

Also, no reason for any Fanatics complaints this time that they don't have [insert TV channel here] and the international live stream is geolocked for UK viewers...

Dave must be showing some other sport instead.....

..whats that you say? They are showing the 1969 film Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid on the Bank Holiday Monday instead? Surely not?
