We did. I particularly recall a replay of Dan Gardner running from the halfway line and hammering the ball into the back of the net.
Per Pete Whiteley, the NL don’t allow any action to be shown.
However I recall by the time we began to wallow in the EFL, we had stopped showing them. The scoreboard became little more than a giant advertising screen. Be good to see the replays back again.

While we’re at it, get the PA fixed too. Sorry to bang on about it but it affects the ability to build up an atmosphere pre-match and is without question a safety issue. Virtually nothing can be heard in the South Stand.

Its strange as the announcements have got noticeably louder in the West Stand starting about 2 months ago. Previously on 80 mins there was a garbled barely audible message about cars not moving in the car parks whereas now its loud and clear.

In that respect, it would be really nice to have a second scoreboard in the opposite corner as if you sit in the East Stand you have to crane your neck to see it.

We can have it on the roof of one of the newly filled in corners.

It's embarrassingly poor. When you go to other 'proper' grounds you realise. Even Oldham's barely used away had big roof mounted speakers pointing towards the seats that made it all nice and audible.

Same in the east stand. Definitely louder over the last few games. Maybe they’ve cranked it up in the other 3 stands in the hope the sound travels to the south stand lol

I've noticed that the volume is also higher in the South stand recently,but the dialogue still comes over like some mediaeval eastern european language!

Absolutely nothing. Nothing at all.
The standard of refereeing is dreadful, really really dreadful
The administration of the league is 20 years behind. Some say it’s semi pro - I guess a throw back to sides having a mix of part and full time players and staff - the administration of the league hasn’t caught up. Truly amateur in everything they do
Sides with 800 fans employing the dark arts to extremes and getting away with it.mmmits all the stuff we used to take for granted inthe league - don’t exist in the 5th tier.
Some say it’s division 5 (or league 3) in all but name but it’s a million miles from the football league.
I’ll never forget or forgive Carson and his role inflicting this period of football on our club

Carson deserves far more vitriol than DA in my opinion. At least he put some money up. Carson did it for thrills.

He didn't exactly need unearthing but tentative credit, yes. The same board were also responsible for Saunders, Caldwell, Allen and Sheridan (again) so they're still very much on the debit side overall. And that's not to mention the long list of assorted wasters, dossers and money pits like Guy Branston.
