If the big screen at the North Stand is not coming back, then can you tone down the volume of adverts on the local DJ disco board above the corner flag?
I don't want to purchase any Nike football boots but would like to see how longs left.

thanks

Was there a response as to why we don't read the opposition team out just before kick off anymore?

Just so VP can give it a boo and I can find out who their subs are.

+1 on this. It's deafening at times

I know this has been responded to but I'm posting this again. Bring the large screen back to the North Stand. I continue to feel my match day experience from the Holte End is being negatively affected due to its absence. I've paid the best part of 500 quid for that. Awful decision.

I would like to see the large screen back aswell sitting in the Holte End and having no screen to view you miss it.

Yes me too.  I sit in the Lower Trinity but swapped to the North Stand on Saturday and realised just how much I missed it.  We must be one of the only grounds in the country where the away fans get to see a screen but a high proportion of the home fans can't - especially as some of those fans are those in the really expensive seats.

I have been sitting in the upper North Stand for the last few seasons and I have always found it difficult to read the teams line-ups clearly on the big-screen. It is either the font colour set against the background colour, the font itself or the actual size. It just always seems harder to read than it should be, and just for the record, I have perfect vision.

Another thing to do with the line-up displays, and this may just be me being an old traditionalist, but I would like to see each teams line-ups displayed in a more traditional method as in the days before displaying the teams in numerical squad numbers order (apart from the GK).

Part of the reason for this would be to do with my first point I guess, but I can never get my head round seeing the opposition’s striker’s name being placed on the official line-up where the left-back should be!

Penalty shoot outs between us and opposition fans at half time. Get people to text in before kick off and randomly draw out 10 fans, 5 from each and have a shoot out. Im sure anyone would be interested in beign able to take part in scoring at the Holte End.

Great idea.

They should try black on orange.

I think they should put theatre style glasses in the seats in the Upper Trinity.

There were no adverts today - in fact there was nothing but the score. What happened to the clock?

Of course  the Arsenal fans could see their screen so they had the benefit of the teams, the stats, replays - and a clock.

Dreadful decision to remove that screen.

I thought you'd paid the best part of £500 to watch the team on the pitch, not the screen.

As for the tannoy system, of all the grounds i've been to, ours is easily the worst and has been for quite some while.

Hi all,
Again, thanks for your feedback.
Just a quick note to explain that we had a hardware failure which led to us not being able to fully utilise the scoreboard at the last home game but all should be fine from the West Brom game onwards.
Thanks

Please get the big screen back at The North Stand. Please listen to the feedback on here and accept it was a mistake to remove it.
