who said cake?!

It costs more than some people may think to implement a Wireless Solution to cover an area that size. Then there's the Bandwidth Costs and Legal concerns. The ROI would be Zero.

The size of the area to cover is not the issue, the issue is the density of clients connecting in small space. The physical number of wireless access points to cover the rugby ground actually wouldn't be that high but the issue is its ok to cover all of the south stand with 2 access points (which you probably could) but however many k devices would swamp the access points and make the speed too slow to be useful.

In terms of legal requirements, as long as you are filtering and logging content viewed (not hard or particularly expensive to do) then that problem is solved.

Final problem is internet speeds and the cost of providing a connection into the ground with enough speed to service the demand.

All very doable, other sports stadia do but as has been mentioned, not much return for the club for the investment and ongoing running costs.

I've found that the 3G signal in the South Stand seems to be a lot more stable this year than it has in the past.

I've asked my question, the club has responded so I now know the position.
Issue over.
Dealt with courteously & efficiently, just how a fan's forum should operate.
Obviously not an internet one.
As far as I'm concerned topic closed.

What? No ridiculously over the top hissy fit over a relatively minor issue? No proclamations about the imminent death of Leeds RLFC and Rugby League as a whole? Are you new here?

Pfft. If there's no drama to watch I'll go back to my cake.

Don't be over-dramatic.....we all know the death of Leeds RLFC and RL will be because they had the man-beast JJB pose in some of the new training gear.

Don't be daft. It's because we didn't sign Richie Myler and McNamara didn't pick Danny Brough. No cake for you

My 4G worked fantastic at the back of the South Stand last night

Same here, much better than previously. In the past is struggle to get a signal especially at half time but it's worked fine for me this season.
