    Tried logging in Sunday but was showing offline ( new phone so never tried before). Is there any issues with it or is it off permanently ?

    Was showing offline for me too. Not like it worked very well anyway.

    I was more worried about getting cack mobile coverage at half-time.

    You would think with the stadium named after our own phone/internet company, all Karoo/Lightstream users would be able to log on to it ...

    Man City have just made there stadium a free wi fi area, and running at 10mbps for all users

    I prefer to engage with other supporters and watch the match.

    At half time look at all the scores, or check twitter, look at latest news

    I'm sure it works at 11pm on a wednesday when 7 people are still at the KC. No chance when everyone's there on match day.

    The main issue is it's ****e and an embarrassment to KC, maybe they should let some other provider into the city to sort it.
    I tried to log into betfair during the trencin game and it kept saying the server had blocked it!!!

    If you were spending £1.5m a season sponsoring a football club, you'd want to be the only company providing that service in the ground.

    You think Chang will spend millions sponsoring Everton, then let them serve Carlsberg?

    Are the betting kiosks 12 bet???

    In that case OLM why don't Kc stop everyone on EE, 02 getting a mobile signal as they are not Kc mobile and they sponsor the stadium

    KC don't have a mobile network, they just sell O2 services and they don't sponsor Hull City, they sponsor the stadium(where all the phones/internet services have to be KC).

    Exactly, they sponsor the stadium that hull city rent. So 12 bet give hull city their money not Kc or hull city council who own the stadium. So unless I'm wrong and I'm sure you'll tell me as a tax payer should I be restricted in a council stadium as to what I can or carnt get on the internet.

    And I'll answer the question, no the kiosks aren't 12 bet so why is it ok to give some bookmakers your money but not others?

    I'm not sure 12 bet offer cash out

    You will indeed be restricted, because the SMC lease the stadium, they don't just rent it and while it's leased, it's theirs and the council have no control over it.

    12BET are on online bookies, so only offer online services, hence only these services are restricted.

    It's not complicated, it's simple common sense.

    Ok


    Not that it really matters but at the KC stadium at half time I've never been able to log in


    As a shareholder .. I could be really upset ......


    However i'm sorry but its a missed opportunity

    So if we were sponsored by coca cola and I turn up in my seat with my bottle of Pepsi, do the stewards run over and take it off me because the club is sponsored by coca cola

    Man utd sponsored by Chevrolet, do they insist the only cars allowed in the players and surrounding car parks are Chevys :)
