So.......18/12 is 18 months and 3/7 is three days. So.......what does 4/52 mean? Why not just put 18 months? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denbury Red Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 I moved from the Dolman to the Lansdown stand this season and reckon the PA system is actually worse in the Lansdown. You can see Downsie with the mike right up to his mouth - has he actually tried pulling it away from his mouth to see if that helps. I am lucky enough to go to Anfield fairly often and the system there has been fantastic for years - the same guy can be heard so clearly it is equally clear when you watch Liverpool on tv. Why don't we suggest MKelly ask Liverpool how they do,it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps @Mkelly will take a stroll around the stands tonight to hear for himself what supporters have been complaining about for so long now? No need for recordings and reports, just someone who can do something about it to hear it with their own ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted September 19, 2017 Admin Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 I've had a strange light bulb moment this morning commuting in on the train There are a number of people who post on here that also watch Bristol rugby, but there hasn't been any mention of a problem during their games? Just had a look on their forum and there are no mentions of any problems from what I can see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As in less people mean it's not as busy so easier to hear Am intending to start a thread with a poll at some point this week (when I get a chance) with what stand people are in and how well they can hear the PA. Might help identify where the main issues are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Sat in the Lansdown stand this evening, couldn't hear any of the pre match interviews or anything but could make out downsy. Could it be something to do with a live mic being played over the speakers vs something pre recorded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesBCFC Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Thought the PA system was very clear in S25. Went a bit mumbly when they changed from pre-recorded bit to live, but it was fairly quickly adjusted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it a disgrace that the club have been aware of the problem for over 18/12 and done very little to get it working properly. i had to laugh rather than cry when I read that MKelly had people with recorders in the stadium on Saturday. That should have been done months ago and if it had we might now have a tannoy system that actually works. Serious procrastination on the part of the club - it's an absolute disgrace.

Might help identify where the main issues are. With all due regards to your concerns and efforts surely the responsibility for ensuring a fit for purpose PA system lies with the supplier and someone at the club should be insisting that it is sorted pronto. Can't believe the statement that recordings of Saturday's game were being monitored to assess the PA performance. Get the PA supplier's engineers in the ground during a first team match so that the monitoring can be carried out in real time and adjustments made to ensure satisfactory results. Back in the 60s that's what we did with Dennis Langley when I was involved with the PA supplier's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
