WATCH: Irish goalkeeper involved in bizarre match interrupted by pesky drone

That's it. The future is NOW. Demand your hoverboard and entire meals in pill form, prepare for Skynet to take control of the world's nuclear arsenals any minute now.

We now live in a world where a humble football match has play stopped after a drone was spotted flying above Valley Parade. The impertinent visitor disrupted a game locked at 0-0 between Bristol Rovers and Bradford, who had Irish goalkeeper Colin Doyle in nets. The stadium announcer confirmed play would be halted until the drone could be removed and the players were taken from the field by the referee. https://twitter.com/officialbantams/status/777166983292919810 One fan captured the drone with this footage: https://twitter.com/bantamsbanter/status/777167471006642177 The match was eventually restarted with the score at 0-0. The home side then took the lead with a goal from James Meredith, and one Rovers fan responded the only way Twitter knows how: https://twitter.com/LukeMate_Luke/status/777169080272977920 But if you thought the ref was being over-cautious by taking the players from the field, then have a look at this clip from last December when downhill skiing champion Marcel Hirscher had a lucky escape when a drone crashed down on to the snow just behind him at Madonna di Campiglio in Italy. Hirscher appeared not to notice what had happened just behind him and carried on with his slalom run, but afterwards said: “This is horrible. This can never happen again. This can be a serious injury.” Bradford, and Doyle, were all set for a clean sheet and three points until Chelsea loanee Charlie Colkett popped up with an 86th minute equaliser.
