City1984 Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 Why no interviews with players and coaching staff? I know they had to squeeze in as many references as possible to the fact no fans are allowed but a quick chat with the head coach wouldn’t of gone a miss.

They've never done it in the past so you're probably going to be a bit disappointed going forward if that's what you're expecting to happen.

Pretty pathetic coverage to be honest. I know the match is the important part but would expect an effort at a more sky sports style of coverage. I can’t be the only one that feels it’s all a bit plastic and rather meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 Wasn’t a fan of the commentary really. A bit too jokey and laidback. I appreciate lots of people probably liked it but felt it was slightly unprofessional. Fine for a friendly, but this was a cup game. Wouldn’t want that approach to continue in the league.

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 It's getting used to the time lapse, which isn't bad on the smart phone but the action was about 3 seconds behind the commentary when viewed on my laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 I thought @Shtanleydid a good job....but it still needs a pro alongside them. Can’t believe they had Joe Williams there but didn’t use him in commentary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 Roll on next month, fingers crossed! Watching us play on RTV is barely a 5/10 experience, not having a go at those behind it, I'd only give Sky 6. I just want to be back in my seat watching it live. I know some don't mind and even prefer watching online or on tv, for me its nowhere near like being there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One person who's had experience for production companies isn't a piss in the ocean compared to all the resources Sky have available. BCTV has subscribers running into the low thousands I'm guessing? compared to 23 million with Sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh Posted September 6, 2020 Report Share Posted September 6, 2020 I think the problem here is comments like you expect too much. The club need to start realising £10 to stream a football game is quite a lot particularly as the picture is not great. I think the least they can do is try and give decent commentary and analysis and an exclusive post match interview with the boss. you accept crap and that is all they will give !!

E.G.Red Posted September 6, 2020 Report Share Posted September 6, 2020 I watch the game and listen to RB at the same time. If they can do after match interviews on RB,Sky & Quest why can’t they do it on Robins TV.? They could fill the intervening time with post match analysis. At the moment it seems a bit like ‘Zoom’ you have a set time and then that’s it. Do iFollow have the post match analysis & post match interviews?

No - iFollow is very limited from the games I've watched on other club's services in the past. There's no presenter/punditry, it's just the match coverage with commentary from BBC local radio, EFL graphics, half-time is some highlights and statistics and then the same again at full-time.

wendyredredrobin Posted September 6, 2020 Report Share Posted September 6, 2020 I generally turn it off straight after the final whistle. Post match coverage is a bit of a waste of time. I don't often watch much of the pre match coverage either though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, you've just watched the game. why do you need to go and watch a pundit explain what you've just watched. If you read the match day thread, everyone is moaning at how bad the commentary/production is, but they are now complaining they want more of it! There were interviews with Hunt, Semenyo and Holden on the Youtuve channel 19 hours ago (I don't know when that was), but must have been close after the game ending.

The stream of the match is EFL, but the club might attract a few more £10s if they add (better) content either side of the 90 minutes.

I expect the logistics of him doing a worthwhile interview before he's spoken to the team just don't line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not approach radio Bristol to get a spare commentator from them alongside a ex pro. So many ex pros around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know who streams it but that is the game itself - presumably it is up to us who we have analysing and what context we put around the 90 minutes. just put some thought into the broadcast package around the game - mediocre currently and could be better with fairly limited effort.

Suspect other broadcasters probably have some level of priority agreed when they buy the rights so Robins TV may get last dibs. There's little point in DH talking to Radio Bristol if he does it after they've gone off air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if this is related, but there appeared to be some syncing issue via pc (I guess it was everywhere) where the main camera was behind both the audio and the secondary camera: (a) the commentator would mention some action just before it had happened. e.g. good control by hunt say, when the ball was just about to be passed to him. (b) the behind the goal camera showed some action (eg a corner) but when the switched to the main camera (split second after the ball had been kicked), the ball still hadn't been kicked. This was the first time i've noticed this has happened. Also the second camera appeared to be a lower resolution, and not colour matched against the main camera - i.e. the colour temerature seemed to be different.
