Not arguing with your point but where they going up seems a waist of money imo I do hope I’m wrong Safe to assume when investigating the installation of new screens that all options were considered. Considering the size of them (absolutely massive) I think their placement will be fine for everyone in the stadium. Hanging from the Trusses would have probably been better but will have required extra work to hold the weight and would also have required a fair bit more weatherproofing I'd imagine. They won't get very wet where they are going but will have been completely exposed up on the roof. The pitch will have also been ripped to pieces by a cherry picker on the pitch if they were up on the Truss.

Not really, only place they can feasibly go without spending multi millions. Main thing is they are miles bigger than Hibs 59m2 vs these which are 88m2.

Not sure if there is a certain number and position of cameras but other than them and the screen for the ref to use I think that's it. No requirement for any in stadium big screens.

Adverts before, half-time and full time I get that but: VAR replays? Near misses? Goal replays? Fouls? Offsides? Who controls the screens, hearts media team? At Easter Road, every break in play seemed to have Grant Stott advertising his panto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see why people want to see them attached to the truss, but its clearly an expensive and difficult thing to do. I think people should wait until they are installed before judging their position.

jamborich Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Would like to change my opinion my initial thought was trying to get a view from the opposite stand however it’s pretty obvious that all you have to do is turn your head left or right depending were it’s positioned doh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
