See your point regarding Walker, but tbf Max could not get in, in front of Hampshire last season unless rocky played in another position.

Agree. Nice position to be in though.

Sounds like a decent player, as hard and aggressive as they come with silky handling skills and a decent rugby brain.

They could also announce the team over the tannoy, or maybe put it out on Twitter and Facebook

Is that your attempt at sarcasm, hard to tell with you.

Either way what harm could it do?

Costs money for something that will be litter to clean up.
It's nearly 2020. People have moved on from printed sheets of paper.
Everybody in the stadium between 10 and 85 will have some kind of mobile device on them.

And wasn't trying to be rude though. I wrote it with a smile on my face.

Have to be tannoy then for me cos I don’t do them other two.

Would paper be better though?
I'm not sure they could even do it.

19 man squad of course but that is all over the media well in advance even if you don't use those social media platforms.
The team is announced about an hour or two before kickoff so although I like it being on the apps, tannoy is ok for me.

I really don’t see why it bothers you. I dispute that people use all those media, they may have them but it doesn’t mean they want to use them. Just because something is old fashioned doesn’t mean it’s wrong. Some of us also like to collect.

As for cost I was pretty sure I covered that.

Tannoy is fine, If you can here it, in the north stand you can't always make out what's being said.

Other clubs have a monthly magazine that includes that particular months fixtures, a little article on the away teams and obviously both squads,Hull springs to mind, no programme gives the starting 17 so match day tannoy announcement will continue for quite some time. I don’t know if we will go down this route but seems to tick many boxes.

One idea I had was to have a large screen similar to the of the score board screen on western terrace, put both teams 17 on screen for the duration of the game. Perhaps this is a too simple idea from an old codger who also isn’t user friendly with so called modern technology.

You didn't even know they'd stopped producing the programme!!

It's still a cost, with added people to distribute and clean up.
And it could only be printed an hour and half before kickoff as that's when the teams are released.

Too difficult for little gain in my opinion.

Can't hear it in the Eadt Stand either

What’s that got to do with it!

Can’t be bothered indulging you in a pointless argument you’ve got dredgenort for that.

we could have dolly birds walking round with a board

What's Facebook ???????

I got my mag yesterday.
I get what people were saying about the type. Not the easiest to read. Not terrible but not easy on the eye.
I think it's the type of font rather than the size.

Our lass says that she would do it Snowie

The P.A. system has been rubbish for years
I stand on the corner, on the west side of the north stand and you simply cannot hear announcements. I know there are, hopefully, grand plans for the ground , but I would have thought from a safety point of view, in the meantime, we should have a P.A. system that can be heard by all.

Send us a photo....

It’ll keep the dogs out of the garden

Bit harsh.....

Look forward to bumping into her BLM and quote you on this.......

She reads this forum BG, but when you’re the boss
