I thought it looked great on Sunday but I do think a clock would improve it even more.

just out of interest, most super league teams have got rid of the clock cos it never tallies with the big screen time when sky visit and therefore causes confusion.

good screen though, better than ours!

Definate improvement on scoreboard, if we can display the team line ups that would be superb.
Your right the outside graphics are great however, when/if the proposed Tesco is built, won't that obscure the screen, particularly from the bypass traffic!
When's East getting their sign? its long overdue! people from outside the town ask me; what's that 'Brick building' on the bypass?

Both signs do look very professional well done but is there no chance of getting a count down timer on the in house screen or is it not possible with the software that the screen uses?????

Hardly a problem for us, then

Was talking about the 'Tesco' development (wont say who with no name dropping ) and they (both high ups one LSV one Centurions) both commentedthat the sign would be seen from the by-pass as the Tesco was going to be over towards the Hotel side of the site.

As for anything else to do with the screen you will have to direct those questions to Michael Ward and Andrew but like I have said it doesn't appear to be that easy with the software available, and lets not forget both also have full time jobs so time is at a premium I suppose, I know our Andrew spends quite a bit of time over and above his ticket office hours doing 'outside screen work' and would imagine Michael doing the same for the inside screen.

As for East's sign, well how long is a piece of string? perhaps Mr C can enlighten us there.

The leaflets given out in the library show Tesco s directly opposite the staduim and the carpark at the side of the hotel, the store looked huge too and itlooked as if it came right up to the roadside and stretched back right up to the bypass. At the end where the temp car park is now, is a petrol station.

So I doubt the screen being seen unless its risen.
