The Scarborough Athletic FC #SAFCLIVE Hashtag Comes Of Age On Twitter

Last nights 1-7 romp on the pitch at Dinnington was enjoyable enough for any Seadog, but off the pitch (on Twitter to be exact) something else remarkable was occurring.

For those who do not know Tweeting Seadogs use the hashtag #safclive whilst Boro games are in progress thus enabling  all tweets relating to the match to be seen together as a collective.

A snapshot of how it looks is shown below, taken at a time when Boro went 4-0 up last night.


But the stand-out stat from last night is that were nearly 100 tweets over the course of the 90 minutes. No Seadog can count them self out of the picture if they follow the #safclive hashtag.  The stats below show that there were approximately 40 #safclive tweets for last Saturdays home game with Liversedge and a whopping near 100 for last nights affair.


This information was taken from #safclive hashtag page on "WhatTheTrend" 

The high amount of #safclive tweets did not go unnoticed by those who seek out the "Twitteratti" because only a few minutes after last nights game finished the following tweet appeared

 
Fame indeed!

I guess the main point of this posting is to encourage as many Seadogs as possible to sign up to Twitter and join in the #safclive conversation, the more tweets using the #safclive hashtag the higher the clubs online profile (which is already very good)  will become. It costs nowt to join up & it can be done very easily on even the most basic of mobile phones.

There are several ways of viewing the collective tweets, just do a search for #safclive on whatever device you use to tweet  or by viewing the #safclive twitterfall or the aforementioned http://wthashtag.com/Safclive

When games are not in progress all the latest Boro news is tweeted out on a regular basis by tweeters such as @safc and @seadogupdate
