jamescolin Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 On the odd occasion I have sat in the main stand. The last time I sat there at the back we scored two tries in the corner, I couldn't see either of them. That is the corner at the railway end of the ground looking left from the main stand. The corner is shielded by some sort of object. Whilst we are not playing could the club do something about it? Even a mirror would be better than non sight.

Bryan S Taylor Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Hi Colin, Jocking apart I understand the problem. I too have experienced the same problem. That's why I try and stand behind the sticks at the POR end. Look after yourself and hope to see you at POR before too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Slater Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 The front corner of the club house has been in the way of the line of sight from the main stand ever since the pitch was extended at the railway end. Whenever a try is scored in the top left hand corner it causes confusion in the press area and also with the stadium announcer, and errors have been reported in the past. A good solution would be a TV screen connected to Jamie's camera on a 30 second delay, although I don't know where you would fix it to keep it safe from the elements and the pigeon? I witnessed something similar a few years ago when Sheffield played at the Greyhound Stadium, but it's likely they were just using the screens in the bar area intended for the Greyhound Racing customers?

Bryan S Taylor Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Fair comment. Could the score board be used as a T V screen to show the try and identify the player for both the Press and spectators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamescolin Posted June 7, 2020 Author Share Posted June 7, 2020 Good idea Bryan. it is frustrating have seen the movement from the beginning and then not able to see if the finish is a try or not. Also if one is awarded or not you cannot see the ending to make your own decision over the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan S Taylor Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 The problem will be resolved when we get promoted. We will have a big screen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
