[Albion] Brighton Fan TV

[Brian Fantana]

It's a huge no from me.

 

[Brian Fantana]

Yeah, I must admit that despite my earlier comment I'm not actually opposed to the idea per se. As you point out if it turned out to be a TV version of the Roar then that would be brilliant - on the other hand if it turned out to be a TV version of a BBC Sussex phone-in then it would be utter shit. As you say it would hinge on the editorial control.

A TV version of the Roar would indeed be brilliant.

After all the positive comments, think will have to give it a go.

If it was it’s own thing then maybe, a video version of Albion Roar as mentioned would be a good example, but if it’s just a carbon copy of Arsenal Fan TV, it’d just be embarrassing.

 

[MattBackHome]

I wouldn't watch a video version of either the Roar (too boring) or a BHAfansTV (too shit) but then I guess I'm not target market for such endeavours, in which I wish all participants the very best.

If it's as good as Albion Roar then why not? There are lots of articulate supporters out there and it would be interesting to hear different opinions after a game. The mainstream media don't really give us that much attention so a supporter based YouTube channel could be a good thing. It would all hinge on finding people with an interesting perspective and in editing out any attention seekers.

I'm not hugely familiar with Arsenal Fan TV, but it appears a very different beast to AR. You're right – a magazine-type show about the Albion would be fantastic. Even better if it was an actual Albion TV channel – like Liverpool TV or Chelsea TV – then yeah, bring it on.

This. You get the odd good point from someone during the post-match interviews done outside the ground on BBC Sussex, but most are spouting utter tosh.

Don't let anyone put you off.

They don't have to watch it.

 

[Guinness Boy]

They don't have to watch it.

Judging by the responses on here no one will.

Big no from me.

 

[Frankie]

Very lucrative if done properly I would imagine so a chance there in the offing just waiting to be taken , wouldn’t let the anti everything new brigade put you off , if you want to , just go for it , please don’t ask me anything post match as I have to be home by 7 for The Chase .

 

[chaileyjem]

It would take an awful lot of effort to run it, especially if you did it in the format of edited post match interviews, vox pops. You'd probably have to , horror of horrors , miss the very end of matches, stand about in the rain, have several volunteers helping you, a load of kit and stick at it for months, if not years. .
Potentially some ££ to be made, but Albion aren't exactly a gonna pull in the lucrative global views, so it really would have to be a labour of love to make it work. Which probably explains why nobody has done it or stuck with it.

 

[MattBackHome]

Indeed. It's not for me but if someone feels passionate about something then they should go for it.

 

[bhafc4eva]

Now if we got a couple of the sacked Darts walk on girls to stand either side of the person getting interviewed. Would this drum up views?

 

[Lush]

Arsenal fan tv came about as large sections of their fans felt alienated by how the club was being run.
It gave them a voice .
I couldn't be happier with How our club is being run.
So no need.
Next .

On that subject, I enjoyed the use of 'Goodbye Mr A' by the club media team for the Arsenal highlights

This, this and this.

 

[FatSuperman]

I'm actually with some of the less knee-jerk responders here. Since I've not been able to get to games, I lap up whatever I can read / view on BHA. So if someone produced a youtube thingy, then I'd certainly have a look. As mentioned above, it'll be a labour of love, you won't get anything out of it for a good while, but that should never be the reason to start something like this. I don't think Arsenal fan TV started with profit in mind, although it's probably turned into that. It's also funny for only a few moments and then it's just the same rant each week.

An actual show with interesting content would be awesome. Even if it'll only be interesting to a few of us at first!

I remember watching that Norwich-supporting kid that did a vlog of their trip to Brighton. I thought that was great, mainly because we thrashed them of course

As indicated in post #14, I am dead against it.

However my opinion could be changed if you broadcast with an Omsung A5 Phine...

 

[Glawstergull]

no.

 

[SIMMO SAYS]

I have been collared twice by a Radio Sussex bloke sticking a microphone under my nose before matches in the very early days of The Amex.
Drink had been taken
I vaguely remember the look of horror on his face when I described in DETAIL the Gent's Loo's at the Goldstone Ground
I was also interviewed by a bloke after we got beaten at Brentford a few years later - all I can say it's on youtube

 

[The_Viper]

No.

Just a thinly-veiled excuse for attention-seeking, self-important narcissists to feel validated because they're holding a microphone.

Doesn't that lad already do it anyway?
