Richwilkins50 Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 Since the fan park has been around, always wondered why they don't show the Saturday morning sky sports kick off on the screen above the sports bar for the people outside having a drink/fag/food. Or have they and I've missed it? I remember they showed some athletics thing on there one Saturday but only ever noticed advertising since.

Lanterne Rouge Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 I don`t think they`re allowed to contractually - Sky won`t permit showing it outside the stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have only ever noticed the advertising its done its job to be fair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should stream it via Kodi then, they'd save loads AND they could show the Prem 3pm kickoffs too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slack Bladder Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 So what's the point of the outside big screen, if it's not for showing some pre-match footie? Might as well just stuck a billboard up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 Pretty sure it's rights issues. Sports rights are pretty costly in UK...guarded jealously. Either rights issues or cost club would need to pay for outdoor screen. Costs pubs a fair whack these days apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it is a modern version of a billboard, at least with a screen multiple adverts can be shown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 If @Bristol Rob has his way we could watch back to back episodes of `Lovejoy`. Possibly while eating chips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could be onto something here. This could be massive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 Just to give a bit of an idea- pub landlords need not apply to answer this as they know no doubt. Read the other day, about the rising pub prices to show football. Average pub season ticket is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
