PA System

[Braders]

Don't know about anyone else but initially the PA was almost deafening in the WSU.

What did amuse me was the scoreboard at the end, Brighton 0-0 Peterborough with "some text" as goal scorers.

and the 50/50 draw thing , and the replay stuff... *tsk* someone was properly showing off

 

[MillitantSeagull]

It seems as though it worked when they were nearer the middle of the pitch but when they were near the sideline it would break up.

Paul Samrah shouldn't be allowed any near a microphone. Leave it to people that know what they are doing.

Amazing how the mic never cut of when Richie Reynolds was using it, or that singer bloke didn't seem to have too many issues singing into it.

Paul Samrah + Microphone = Embarrasment

...and because you can't spell you shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a computer presumably?

I can understand people posting goofy remarks on here but your unpleasant comments were in response to a previous explanation of the actual situation, which you completely ignored.

Nasty.

It contributed to a great afternoon, it wouldn't be Brighton if there wasn't some sort of pantomime?

And as much as I doth my cap to Paul Samarah for all he has and continues to do for the Albion.

Myself and a fair few around me found it very funny - especially in that suit - that suits from Matalan, that suits from Matalan!

 

[oldalbiongirl]

Oh well. Itll all iron itself out. It was a great day. There are always some things that dont go to plan. It didnt even work for Gods representative so it was never going to work for Paul Samrah.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Poor old Paul, i did feel for him. He did a great job though, just let down by the IT :-(

 

[Lindfield by the Pond]

In Paul's defence it really wasn't his fault. 3 distinct and separate issues happened today with the PA and Mics. One of these issues was sorted by half-time and the other 2 are being dealt with as we speak. There is a dedicated and committed team working hard to make sure your match day enjoyment is all it can be.

Today's pre-match event was a very complicated piece of logistics that involved moving a lot of people around the stadium and getting timings just right. It was a very steep learning curve today, however, the good news is that the 'people' part of it worked flawlessly, the 'technicals' let us down.

This certainly was not our finest hour, but believe me when we say that we are looking into it and have learnt a lot from today's match - which, after all, was one of the reasons for the match in the first place.

Bear with us please, we are working our socks off.

This is NSC. All largely good fun to read. Some funny, some serious, most a mixture of both. Most realise its a ramp up.

In your opinion - do you think we will get the OK for the Donny game? Will the socks have been worked off by then?

Seriously - it doesn't matter. At Withdean I couldn't hear a f***ing thing for 12 years. This (and the pies) are a massive improvement.

A ramp up is one thing. Nastiness is another.

 

[Norman Baker suck my lozenge]

Poor, poor Paul Samrah, that was just horrible for him.....

However, is it me or did no-one else have the same difficulty? Richard Reynolds and the tenor seemed to work it ok.

Was that Richie Reynolds?
I thought it was Simon Jordan!!!

 

[osgood]

PA was fuzzy and too loud where we were, in the east stand,

think this could be rectified by the Technical Team via the Bass and Sound Levels,

Good response !

 

[GoldWithFalmer]

All they need to do is locate an aerial for the radio mics so that it covers the area around the tunnel / tech areas. It's not exactly rocket science.

Perhaps they have already,they just don't work-who knows what those damn students get up to over the road in area 51.maybe they are building rockets.

 

[Another Berkshire Seagull]

Paul...It didn't detract from my day. I feel for you.
You are one of Brighton's behind the scenes legends and I know that the fact I got to sit in my seat at Falmer today was massively influenced by the hard work you have done for the club along with the Falmer 4 All team.
I really hope it didn't ruin your day and if it did I am sure the Albion playing at the stadium for the rest of your lifetime will pay you back for your contributions to the cause....Legend!!!

 

[Giraffe]

Paul apologies, it just seemed to be a problem for the legends bit but you're right the bish had the same problem. I wish you'd have had that problem when you were screaming like a mad old cow to "get off the pitch" last season.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

The heir to the Bracknell title did some audio visual stuff for a charity do at the Amex a few weeks ago - and he reported huge disappointment at the quality of the facilities. And he's got a lot of experience in this sort of thing, from installing systems at the Meydan Racecourse in Dubai to working the AV kit on a summer-long tour of American and Canadian stadiums with Def Leppard.

That's a really nice post - true spirit. Detractors should take heed. Paul has done, and will continue to do some amazing things for the Albion.

IMHO yes it will. Seriously, there is a bunch of people that haven't seen much of their families or beds for the last few days/weeks but have gone the extra mile for the cause. "Team Brighton" have been magnificent. The problems today were purely down to outside influences -they have been told!

 

[Easy 10]

I bloody love Def Leppard.

There. I said it.

Thankfully, no one listened to your bollocks 15 years ago, you are a twat of the highest order!
