Post by medlocke »

good idea with the new screen but very amatuerish having ganson on screen and the other ref anouncing it over the tannoy, was like being at an Askam game

I agree very amateurish and not showing it full screen. What are they playing at. Fixing something thats not broken

I like the fact that You get to hear why the decision was made over the tannoy. All decisions were easy tonight so it will be interesting the hear what they're blurting out on contentious decisions or where they're just missing a howler.

Was good to hear on the ground why the decision was made. Not sure about it on the big screen though but a step in the right direction

Agreed. Didn't like it. From where I sit all you can see is the two of them from the back. You can't see what they are looking at.

I thought it was a technical fault at first!

I suppose it may work better on TV but at the ground on the big screen it looks like a couple of old gits sneaking out for a fag.

Think both clubs should invest in a screen of their own!

People have tv's bigger than that :wink:

The picture quality is disgraceful in this hi tech era.

Plus think it needs to be higher up IMO of course :roll:

that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Time that Whelan invested in two bigger screens on the gantries of the North and South Stands or a screen in each corner.

From where I sit, it looks like they are playing in the dark.

As for the new format, it's going like American Football every season.

What next, the Referee announcing his decisions.
