rammieib Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Not seen much talk about this. Few interesting factors. 1) Was the cost of this included in the 1 million for the screen inside the ground? Was it always the intention to put screens up outside? 2) I am surprised the health and safety aspect hasn't been bought up (or it has and I am not aware). The screen on the DW roundabout I think could definitely lead to an accident. 3) When Tom Glick referred to a payback within one season on the screens, I could not understand that with reference to the screen inside the ground but definitely on the screens outside. How may thousands of people will see them day in, day out. All in all, great move by the club and I look forward to seeing them operational.

G STAR RAM Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Anything that secures a future income stream for the club can only be good. The only possible argument against this will be that some people will say we have foresaken a January transfer kitty to buy the screens...watch this space!

Alph Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Now these screens are up I bet we don't buy anybody in January... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G STAR RAM Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Maybe they will play clips of players that we could have bought instead of paying for the screens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G STAR RAM Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Are the ones outside the ground up yet? Yes, the one in North West corner was finished this week. Looks a lot better than the one in the North East Corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davenportram Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 They looked good when I went today. Not just stuck on the outside they have put cladding on to make them look like they are set into the stand Look better than the posters that were there before. Only saw 5 adverts though - club shop, derby college, a cleaning firm and ticket details. Definitely can show more adverts than static posters so should increase sponsorship revenue. Health and Safety issues? No more distracting than billboards and why is the DW roundabout any more dangerous than the Statue Roundabout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadn't been when I went on Thursday hence why I said the other one in the North West corner looked better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I think so - but I was too busy concentrating on the road to be certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFCfranco Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 The leccy bill must be through the roof! I wonder what they'll show. Adverts, DCFCTV or those players from the past clips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 They should have comments from dcfcfans on the screen. I'd love to see Coutts face when he reads it. "Who the **** is Paul Thirwell?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
