It really was that bad and seems to think it was all one big joke. Don't forget, we did pay for it - the 'teething problems' should've been worked out long before they decided to charge £10 a time for it. Spot on. Scott Gardiner? more like fuckin Chance the Gardener in the Peter Sellers movie. And he says in the article, 'If the sun's not out there's not a problem'. Which indicates that the cameras haven't been moved to the correct viewing location and are still located on the east side.

It's the attitude that really grates with me. He's talking about it like it's all one big joke, which perhaps says a lot more about him than his very short sighted quotes in the article. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 He's in cloud fucking cuckoo land if he thinks these are teething problems that are magically going to go away!Looks like he also confused "state of the art" with "experimental" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Placing the camera in the main stand despite being told not to and then to claim that it works fine when the sun’s not out at a time of year when the sun will setting while the match is on is barking mad. I think he genuinely doesn’t care if the stream’s garbage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way he's talking about this as one big joke is very worrying. So he say's 'It wasn't as bad as everyone was saying' So all those who complained on the forums and to the club were wrong. We the paying fans!!!! didn't have the luxury of sitting in the stand for free to watch the game but had to endure 93 minutes of abysmal coverage which at times panned away from the game at crucial moments. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mantis Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I’ve just been invited to cover a EOSL match tomorrow 2pm with my camera. This will be my first game since Alloa nearly 8 months ago. An actual live game So not sure whether to stump up my tenner for the stream this week or just wait for the highlights. Especially with the Edinburgh derby on at 5 o’clock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraz Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I emailed SG with my comments and suggestions, being as clear as I could be that the issues were much more than simply following a bald linesman. I've so far had no acknowledgement or reply. I find it staggering that for all the random statements that we put out about whatever, that we've said nothing accepting the problems and what we plan to do to resolve them. That P&J interview is very poor. Guess SG is right and everyone else is wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine a fair proportion of our support from last week won’t bother, plus with all due respect, Arbroath will have a smaller support than Ayr. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going by the amount of negativity from the Arbroath fans on the Caley v Arbroath thread you're probably right. If I had the option like you of a live game I wouldn't hesitate plus high winds up here just now so any ball control and good play will be difficult. Enjoy the live game and then the Caley highlights. Edited October 31, 2020 by SandyCromarty 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The committee are happy for me to show up any time until I can get back into ICT games. Didn't have any regrets anyway, hearing the feedback from the first half at TCS. Home in time to have a couple of beers watching the semi. Look forward to the highlights coming up later.
