Owly Mowly Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Anyone else still struggling like me? Sat in the kop, when the play is up the other end trying to tell what the bloody hell is going on down there when the advertising boards are on the bright adverts? Not sure whether it’s my eyes getting worse? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanharper Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 The boards don't cause me problems but I'm in the North Stand. I don't know why they've changed the font on the team lists on the big screen this season though, I have to squint to see the names. I'm sure it was much clearer last year.

Do you take a flask or a blanket to the match ? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've even seen them taking a nap some games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Farrell Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 It was discussed a few years ago that the North West Corner could be for real ale fans and over 70's only. The club even purchased a load of Scotch blankets and boiled sweets. Maybe DC would consider it again ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leaping Lannys Perm Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 I moved from the Grandstand to the Kop this season and funnily enough find the boards less distracting now because the ones I face are further away. Used to be distracted by any of the bright adverts. Now the only one bright enough to distract me is the one for that Thai balloon company which for some reason advertises with us despite not trading since 2011. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
