alexf Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I meant the idea of it. So in the future he will not allow people to sit there and replace seats with screen. Im sure the rumours were bollocks anyway so ignore me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 When I was younger I wanted a big screen at SJP, now I don't. They look tacky and horrible, plus the TV's inside the concourses do their job perfectly. Your there to watch the game live not watch it via a screen. I liked how today they had the score next to the clock using a small bit of the electronic advertisement boards, maybe that they should introduce for NUFC but apart from that then no we don't need a giant screen and it will just look horrible. Most of them in other grounds these days just show advertisements or team line up's so what the point? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I wouldn't mind a screen, providing it was smart and relatively subtle, which i think that is. I'd certainly substitute one of them - with a few ads at HT - for all the fucking God-awful red and blue shite plastered everywhere. I never go into Level 7 now and you just forget how fucking horrific the whole thing looks. Absolutely horrendous. We would have trouble finding somewhere where it wasn't at the expense of seats, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I wouldn't advocate it, i'm just saying it'd be better than the whole stadium having shitty red and blue wallpaper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 stupid question but on a matchday could they not use the advertising hoardings to display the team lineups? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Wouldn`t screens be needed in some kind of form at Premier League grounds if the PL decide to use the Hawk Eye as their preferred goal line technology? The other goal line option wouldnt need screens i think but hawk eye would unless it just the fourth official who gets to see it.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, a screen isn't needed for Hawk eye, it's all done automatically, a screen is used in sports for hawk eye though to show it how it works and for the fans to see why the decision is being made. Besides why would you need a jumbo screen for it?, you would only need to give the 4th official a screen even if it was needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guh, i'm not against goal-line technology, but i think it'd look minging if there was a screen that said "GOAL!!!" after video inspection - like in Rugby or whatever. If it ever comes into play, and screens are present, i hope they just disclose it via the ref's hand signals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Aye, that's what i mean. If they're going to bring in goal-line technology, i think they need to keep it as subtle as can possibly be. I won't deny that it can be exciting when you get your Challenges at Wimbledon, and you're anxiously watching the hawkeye; but it is a bit too panto for me. No coverage of them scratching their chins whilst they watch the footage in an office. No big screens that show a CGI version of the incident. No "GOAL" in bright lights. Nowt. Just a few seconds of agonising 'not-knowing-wtf-is-going-on'... just all eyes on the ref. Minimalistic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 From what I understand is that theirs no need for anyone to see any footage of it, including the referee or 4th official. All the cameras point across the line and they all watch the ball and all the cameras together determine if it went over the line , there is no imagery of it, all that is for show at tennis and cricket. Basically it's like having a sensor on the line. The decision is made within a second and is sent directly to the referee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically it's like having a sensor on the line. The decision is made within a second and is sent directly to the referee. Its not for show in cricket as its fundamentally different. In cricket it is to predict the route the ball would have travelled if not intercepted and whether it would have hit the wickets, hence the graphic is a crucial part.

David28 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Think we should introduce a giant LED 3D TV screen at SJP. Wouldn't it be epic if 52,000 people were at a football ground watching a match with 3D glasses? Well, it probably wouldn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exiled in Texas Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I watched the pre-season exhibition game between Chelsea and Club Americas (sitting behind the goal in the upper end zone with the smaller end screens in front of me. I kept forgetting to watch the actual players on the field because the game on the screen was easier to see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
