Big Screen

[RoyalTank]

Does anyone know what the point of the big screen is? It never shows replays, it is just simply showing the game with a 2 second delay...

[AthleticoSpizz]

for the hard of hearing?

for the Eaststanders who are too busy eyeballing the Southstand to review the game?

Because $ky own the rights of replays?

So I can get my birthday put on there at half time?

the score

The countdown for the 10 year olds who LOVE to chant it.

club is not allowed to show contentious issues on the screen.

if there has been no contentiousness, you getto see it.
most of the goals get shown

Think it's been covered before but they just don't have the technology needed to turn around replays instantly unless the game is being covered by an outside broadcaster.

As such they'll just have the single camera feed that broadcasters use for goals later on the FLS or SSN etc.

Plus they're not allowed to show any replays where a referee or linesman has been contentious. They usually replay the goals though...

Wayne Bridge really is that slow these days I'm afraid.

If it wasn't there you'd moan you don't see the half-time and full-time scores, or you'd realise something else you miss that the club doesn't provide. It's also a source of advertising, as well as half-time entertainment and general announcements. It's not just a giant telly to keep you amused.

Because some guy wanted to live the ultimate bloke dream and buy the biggest TV in the shop.

If the football being served up was a bit more entertaining nobody would be mentioning the big screen.....

[NattMiles]

So the fans know what the time is so they can go home early

I personally thought that it was an unnecessary expense and the money should have been used for the academic programme but you know what those boosters are like

[Wallington Royal]

Why can't the club update the players pictures when they announce the team, most of the players pictures are in last years kit or photo's when they signed, has the club got no money to update the pictures? amateurish......
