apparently the screen in the north stand is over 10 years old and has now past its sell by date and deemed unfit for use, these type of screens only have a 10 year lifespan and I am led to believe that a new one will be put in but im not sure when.
I too found the pa system hard to hear but I just thought I was going deaf in my old age !

I could hardy see the new screen at all - the brightly lit ads on either side were the main cause..

I also found the adverts lighting up the touchlines very distracting - I thought they'd been banned last year?

The north stand screen works fine for Hull City games.

Yes. The new screen is an Allam decision so there are two screens for Premiership matches. Probably plunging the SMC even more unaccountably into the red.

But why use that screen solely at our games? If I were in the South Stand I'd be a bit indignant. Great for the few dozen away fans, mind. And, yes, it's too dazzlingly bright and, I thought, the picture too small to see properly.

I sit in South and it's very offputting with the flashing bright and dark. Also very difficult to see it clearly.

But yeah - great for the away fans :/

The new screen is a complete waste of time. All it shows are adverts and who the fk wants to watch them during a match?

Far too bright with the white backgrounds. In the South Stand the light just distracts.

As for the PA. Clarky talks too fast and the volume is too low. The sound cuts out in the South sometimes too.

The sound always used to be fine but it was rubbish for the Rovers match and again yesterday.

Way too bright. Conveniently showed adverts during almost every replay too.

Whats up with the other screen. The new screen is horrible. Far to bright an never zooms in like the old 1 use to.
Also anyone notice the picture on the sky screen was poor?

I was in the middle of South stand an the PA was rubbish there aswell could barely hear anything. The new screen is far to bright to look at had to turn away most of the time.

I maybe wrong but i don't think we've had that screen 10 years. we had the old light type scoreboard, which i think came from sunderland.

I don't understand why we can't have both screens on as they do for city games. at least we are finally making use of the electric advertising boards.

The pa system has needed sorting for a long while, i sit in the east stand for City and south for Hull and both stands are very poor.

Try listening to Steve Jorden at City games he talks way to fast, was so glad Hull ditched him.

it`s the length of time they show a still picture for,before they move it on to show whatever the vid ref is deciding on.

the North stand screen isn't 10 yeras old. Paul Duffen was at city when they installed it. so 2007/8 i reckon

New screen in the South was far too bright for my liking. Didn't have any issues looking at the Sky one.
