GeoTheCiderHead Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 (edited) “Goal for Bristol City scored by number twenty Jason Knight” was the only clear thing I could hear with any clarity from the Dullmoan. Bet Sam Bell was confused. Edited August 9, 2023 by GeoTheCiderHead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashtonboy Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 Not only was Downsey awful again, the sound system in the south stand has definitely deteriated since last season. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The chief Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 Ridiculous. Took about 5 mins to announce our subs tonight. What’s the point in him? Get rid. Doesn’t announce their subs either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacker Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 I think when the treble substitution was made,out of the six players involved only Kal Naismith was shown on the screen. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey 6 Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 When that triple sub was made, he said ‘coming onto the pitch number 4’ That was it. He then took a few mins to say who was subbed on, but did it whilst we were celebrating another goal I think. God knows what he was saying, absolutely useless. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh that was brilliant, 3 subs no announcements, even the assistant refs number board didn't work, then out of now where 'coming onto the pitch No 4'!

2015 Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 Did the same on Saturday, player was halfway running onto the pitch and no announcement. Just absolutely useless and not suited to a Football crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin phantom Posted August 10, 2023 Admin Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 The thing that I don't understand is that he is right next to the subs, he has a team sheet in his hand how 'kin hard is it to sort? I'd imagine that the 4th official may speak to him before the change is made so he can be ahead of the game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denbury Red Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 Whilst I am not a Downsey fan - I really think he has an impossible job sitting in a booth in the corner of the Lansdown and South Stand - it's impossible for him to see the subs (albeit he was really slow at announcing the subs last night and either needs to have an eye test or get some binoculars to see the board. Is this "booth" a contributory factor to the PA system seeming muffled all the time -as it was impossible to understand the names of any of the players her was announcing. The whole Sound System seems to have had the "Bass" button turned up which means everything is "thumping" with bass when any sound comes out. To top it all - when announcing the teams at the beginning of the game - he was saying the players names with loud music being played in the background - although it wasn't the background it seemed like the same volume - neither could be heard properly = that must have been down to Downsey for not fading the music down whilst he read out the team names. This is again an absolute SHAMBLES by the media team - sort it out!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
