cityhead Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 I have only one complaint from yesterday which would not have put us in a very good light if the millions of viewers had been made aware of it. After our second goal the scoreboard read CITY 1 : 2 WBA. Now when the scoreboard operator applied for his job I presume he had to provide confirmation of a limited knowledge of english and possibly football. When we move to our new stadium or promotion to the prem I would have thought a scoreboard upgrade would be appropriate to bring us into the 21st century along with english qualifications for the operator and a colour blindness test to make sure he knows which team plays in which colour shirt. Either that or get a eastern european to do the job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bris Red Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 At least you can see it! In the EE we don't have that luxury!! It is a bit annoying if your in the EE! I think the club should invest in having a small scoreboard put somewere in the Ateyo so the EE/away fans can see aswell... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityhead Posted February 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 At least you can see it! In the EE we don't have that luxury!! You have my utmost sympathy, and spare a thought for the away supporters, poor lambs wouldn't have a clue what the score was/is - especially if they're colour blind as well.

The clock is the thing that I would like to see the most, I can usually remember the score! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC_Dan Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 I believe it's also pre-set to increment the opposing team's score by 1 as soon as the clock reaches 90 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityhead Posted February 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Can we start a witch hunt to find out who is responsible for such a crap scoreboard and clock - my bets on LEE JOHNSON! As a fix to the problem would a mirror on the Atyeo help the poor EE and away supporters or would that make things worse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_Q Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 The clock is the thing that I would like to see the most, I can usually remember the score! Scrap the clock completely - it's what puts the players off when they see 90 minutes are up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim S Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Scrap the clock completely - it's what puts the players off when they see 90 minutes are up! The players know 90 minutes are up by the fourth official holding up the board with remaining minutes. Thats usually the big giveaway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
