    The TVs weren't on at 2:30, at 3pm around half were still switched off. False promises hey don?

    Isn't that the least if our problems? If you want to watch tv, stay at home and watch Jeremy Kyle.

    It might be the least of our problems but look at it as a home owner.
    Your boiler is knackered and your house is cold. Your kids come downstairs to tell you that the bulb has gone on the landing light. Do you A/. Tell them it's tough ****, its the least of your problems and can be sorted next week after a plumber has been out to sort the boiler? Or do you B/. Spend ten seconds reaching into the draw in the kitchen and putting a new bulb in while you're waiting for the boiler to be repaired?

    Matchday experience.

    Succesful sporting clubs all around the world value it and do everything they can to promote it. Oakwell is a ******* boring and miserable place to watch sport these days.

    No you're right, it's got everything to do with flicking a switch to turn TV's on. What a hard job to do...

    I don't care about TVs etc.... apart from it demonstrates the absolute ineptitude of the club to do anything right. How hard is it to turn a TV on?

    To me it demonstrates the low standards that prevail throughout the club. If TVs can't be turned on then take the ******* out. The perception of the club is horrendous.

    It is not fecking rocket science is it, anyone can turn the tv`s on, but no-one does, they cant be arsed, even though Don Rowing has said many times he will ensure they are turned on, but because Supertyke dares to mention it he is pounced on . Just suprised Mr C has not had a pop yet !!

    Exactly. I don't actually watch the TV's, I'm more interested in what is going on on the pitch but I know some people DO watch them. Some WOULD turn up early and buy a pint in the ground if TVs were on and showing sky sports. Some WOULD enjoy it and it MAY put extra bums on seats, maybe only one or two (literally) but even at that it is an extra £56 a game income for the club, an extra £1300 a season in and thats if only TWO people come because of the extra experience. The reason it actually bothers me is like you say, because it shows just how lazy and lacking in effort people at the club are. There is no attempt at all to please the fans.

    If and when they are not on at the next home game I will ensure that I try my hardest to come up with an even more outrageous comparison. I'm sure there is something that can top it.

    What's that got to do with light bulbs? I'm confused.

    Whats the point in turning up early ?? every thing is franchised so BFC get f all profit out of the extra ( 3 ) pints sold. Throw the tv's in the dearne.
