Sky TV Coverage - Thursday Nights - Big Screen : Mon Mar 16, 2009 11:15 am  
Does anyone know the reason why there is no big screen at the Thursday night games? A lot of excitement is lost without it . . .

Also all of the animations that Super League has, eg the TV Screen that comes out of the stand with the tryscorers stats on...

Since they started showing National League/Championship games on sky they have never bothered with the screen, except at Grand Finals, Northern Rail Cup Finals ect.

Wouldnt take much, though most SL grounds now have a pernament fixture for the screen to be attached to, which is lacking at most of the Lower League Grounds, which could be a factor.

Yes - I have relised Brew. It really would add some atmosphere as it is quite boring waiting for the video ref to make a decision when we cannot see the replay. It recrossedmy mind when I was watching the Cas game this weekend, the big screen really did add another dimension.

Is there anybody I could contact and maybe request it?

Does anyone have any contacts at Sky?

I feel it would be a worthwhile investment . . . especially at this weeks game.

Agree 100% and look out for me at the game.

I'll have my Bulls top on :wink:

Yes, Standing around while the Video Ref makes up their mind is a little tedious at times. As you have no idea of what is going on with the replays.

I was under the impression it was because the club has to lease the screen from Sky for the game at the cost is to high rather than Sky themselves not wanting it!

Could be wrong though :D
