The bloke who controls the scoreboard

[TS90]

Seems to have come in for a bit of stick from fans but to be fair to him (or her), he's got better every game and seems to add a new feature to his repertoire every week. Last game we got a note of who scored and who'd been booked, I wonder what we'll see next.

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Substitutes?

 

[LadySeagull]

I liked the prediction of 2 - 1 that appeared briefly on Saturday when we were drawing 1-1. Five minutes later it was true!

 

[Robot Chicken]

The half time draw numbers?

 

[NorthStandN1A]

agree - it's better (for content) than the emirates screens in my opinion.

 

[Seaber]

If someone goes off injured and doesn't return, such as Hayter, or is sent off, their name should show in red or black or disappear. Excellent, otherwise.

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

I think they should have a card symbol next to their name if they are booked. Can be quite hard to see small yellow writing as that different from small white writing.

probably a good idea, although was good to see the bookings introduced last night (dont remember this from games previously)

if they could show the subs every 5/10 mins or so, that'd be perfect.

replays seem to be a work in progress, but at donny game it all seemed good so no concerns there.

 

[Seagulltonian]

Was very impressed with the scoreboards, was useful to check which Gillingham players hadn't been booked, lol.

The only thing I found a bit off-putting was that pink advert that kept coming up every so often. I wonder if that's a bit of a distraction for the players on the pitch?

The half time draw numbers?

Erm they were shown last week...

The replays shown on screen have more angles than on the club site (behind the goal, lower level, etc.). I guess the club site is restricted by what the FL allow to be shown?

 

[shaolinpunk]

I'd like to see a little ticker at the bottom that flashes up with latest scores from around the division

I imagine that against Doncaster they were the BBC replays.

 

[Gazwag]

I agree with the substitutes comment, I always forget who is on the bench two minutes after its announced, I would also like to see OFF OFF OFF OFF after a bad tackle.

 

[Notters]

It would be good if they kept the timer going beyond 45/90 minutes.

 

[Randsta]

It would be good if they kept the timer going beyond 45/90 minutes.

Agreed!

 

[mcshane in the 79th]

It should have a cartoon version of the ref, who can be customised each week to resemble the actual referee. You could then have them acting out the issueing of cards on the big screen each time. And then when there is a rubbish decision, they can show the ref hanging his head in shame with the word "BOOOOOO!" above his head.

Similar to this:



Or this:

 

[Wozza]

For the plastics/part-timers, perhaps they could show Champs League matches when there's a fixture clash...

 

[Gazwag]

It would be good if they kept the timer going beyond 45/90 minutes.

I don't think they are allowed.

at the spurs game he was just sitting in his little chair, bad back, and cigarette in hand. when spurs scored, he cricked his back, put his hand on his hip, took a draw from his fag and groaned a little. clunk clunk whirr.
