    Nice suprise to walk into Ponty and see brand new TVs showing the lunch time kick off and then Sky Sports News - got so used to those old TVs either not being switched on or just showing an empty Oakwell pitch. Match day experience and all that...at least we've now got what the majority of other Football League clubs have!

    They are a tad on the small size , the problem being most people have bigger screens at home and they are sat 6ft away from them

    I think they were referring more to the ads and banners on screen, which makes the actual viewing pane smaller than the screen

    If folk want to watch telly, stay at home. Hang on, no don't - come to games!!

    Any tellies in the West Stand? If not, why not? Actually, I'm not sure if West Stand has electricity.

    They've done a good job with them, was expecting new teles but the same old rubbish picture. In the East Stand the picture was crystal clear on all of them so they've invested in the technology that delivers the picture as well as the TV's themselves - presumably they're using HDMI over Cat6 which I mentioned in a thread months ago would be the right way to do it.

    Good to see you reverting to type, HT.

    We created nothing of worth, and didn't look remotely likely to finish anything. This is a disfunctional team which is gravitating towards it's League One origins.

    We need change - and soon.

    A penalty invalidates that statement lad.

    Not wishing to split hairs, FS, but wouldn't you say Donny created that opportunity for us? As for creating anything from open play, well we could have still been at Oakwell now and.................?

    '' We created nothing of worth''- Orsenkaht LOL

    We created Two free headers from 12 yards. McCourt shot from 15 yards. A Penalty and a lot of other half chances like Wiseman getting in a not picking the right pass or the crosses in to the box.

    The only change need is for you to stop posting ****.
