Finlay21 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 (edited) There was an area built for camera ( Tv) at a reasonable height to which Tv company did not want as it is not on halfway line , due to hospitality boxes getting preference at halfway line ( correct decision ) think club made right decision and kept the boxes as the priority as it has clients every game and TV only guarantee 2 games per season Edited August 10 by Finlay21 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club did a big push for north stand season tickets in the summer and block the view of some the first time they show up, like many things with the club, it tends to f**k up and react rather than make sure they don't f**k up in the first place. 5-0 against Airdrie and a winning start will mean we will likely be prominent in the next round of fixtures picked for Tv. The camera position in front of the main stand is woeful, which probably explains why the TV companies historically never used it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their viewing figures must’ve quintupled after half time last night as kids around the world found a TV to watch Rus and Dempsey. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No goal’s conceded and a goal difference of +7. Falkirk leading the chase to catch us. So cute. Home game and only game in the championship next week giving us the chance to go 3 clear at the top. Squad looking ‘valuable’ and most of them on multi year deals. Oh, and we’re not being bought by a crypto currency bloke who likes to invent words. Bring on the rest of the season. Let’s get “phygital”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, the TV companies were never going to use it as their main camera position. A camera position could also have been used by our own in-house media team as well for highlights and streaming, with streaming in particular only going to become more important in the years ahead. But in the end, we’ve ended up with a camera position that is blocking people’s view from the new stand. Don’t get how that can ever be viewed as the correct decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right next to the box on the railway end side of the halfway line there is a window for a TV camera. Probably about 10 yards off the halfway line at most so I don’t see why the BBC don’t just take it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However the shortbread that you get when eating an empire biscuit falls to bits and half of it ends up in your lap. I’ve certainly never heard of anyone buying an empire biscuit at a game of football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny’s are class and empire biscuits are the poor man’s millionaire shortbread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No there was a media room built halfway between those gaps and the hospitality suite , the window that is higher than all others which opens up to allow room for camera 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably about 10 yards off the halfway line at most so I don’t see why the BBC don’t just take it. Don’t think there is. 10 yards from the halfway line is still the hospitality box. As far as I can see, there are camera positions in line with the 18 yard boxes at either end, but they are obviously unsuitable for the main camera position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
