Ronald Villiers Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 According to the Lochenders our screens look terrible compared to their's and we're copying them.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Bit ironic this thread I find, usually the sort of shit Hibs do actually get excited over. Meh, screens, we are a bit late on the scene, just hope they are of decent standard when switched on and accessible to all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Torrance Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 I'm not sure they're mandatory for VAR but the experience in the ground without them wouldn't be great. I imagine being able to see an image confirming a decision will help. That and the opportunity to wind up the Hibbies before and during a game is worth it alone. And we need a crowd cam.

Unfortunately we don't have the pockets of EPL teams. The trusses are fine for the weight though, can tell by just looking at them IMO.

Laurie must have a button that says 'replay' or something like that - for when a goal's scored?

A_A wehatethehibs Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 That is the only place the club could’ve realistically pragmatically put screens of that size. It would add a substantial wedge onto the cost to hang these from the trusses, you’ve got to weatherproof, adds a huge load, it’s not a simple task. To start with, can we even fit a crane of that size that could take that weight through the vehicle access onto the pitch side? Also, how robust are these screens long term for Scottish Winter weather for the next couple of decades? They are protected from that in their current position. Stick the screens on the wall, weatherproof, safe, massive, and comfortably visible from 98% of seats in the ground. We can add a couple more in the future maybe. Kept away from the side of the pitch unlike the irritating ER ones. Job well done stadium enhanced massively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
