It's not just a scoreboard. But that big thing in the corner, yes.

Could be interesting.
I think I'm right when I say that the big thing in the corner has no independent sound. Might be wrong though.

There's no charge for the outdoor viewing.

I'm actually tempted with this. Is it an on the pitch job or sitting in the stands? (Sorry if I missed that bit).

Hope it's in sync with the lounge screening

[clarevoyant.]

Will they get enough advertising revenue on the segregation sheets which will block all the empty seats created by their mardiness to compensate for gate receipt losses?

Anyone know what time barrel are leaving and if there is space? Can’t see any post other than they are working through the list. I’ve got 1 on true blue but that was when I only had the 1 ticket and that’s now sold out 🙄

It can be linked to to the PA system.

I would imagine if they’re working through the list they won’t know if they’ve got space or not.

Plenty of regulars will have booked seats in the hope they get tickets (they don’t get tickets reserved by the club like True Blue regulars do) but will be either holding on to seats in the hope they get a ticket between now and Friday or will have messaged to say they want to cancel.

2.30 departure. Bit early for me and the lad who would have to bunk off school early with a fictional dentist appointment or similar. Will just drive down.

At the AGM, Ash Kirk (I think) said that they needed to spend £4K to get the screen connected to the PA system.

Ta.
...and will the PA system be connected to the Sky commentary, or Phil on 1866, or somebody else at the ground watching the TV?

They got 1000 tickets left and presumably a lot of segregation.

Does anyone know how many sections we are occupying?

The seating plan briefly came up at 10am. I think it was 2 blocks on the end and 3 on the side.

So that is two full blocks taken up with segregation

Could we hear 'this grounds too big for you' from the away section

But by losing all those seats it reduces what they have to offer us. Talk about cutting your nose etc. etc.

Would it be better if a points system was introduced? How often does demand outweigh supply?

They don't care, and why should they really? Financially it's minimal given the way receipts are divvied up.

Not a surprise I suppose that they conduct their business like they do their football.
