Roll on Saturday Soccer!!!
I was there and it seemed fine though.
Lads, on eL Weekly last night, Belfield seemed really dark .... is it always like that ?? It really showed patches in shadow and then parts that were under the lights were fine.
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

I was thinking the same myself. I'd say it might have been a camera problem, it didn't seem any darker than normal at the match and it's never been that bad on TV before.
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
i thought Ports v City looked very dark and i think the lads that were there said as much.
City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.
O'Bama - "Eerah yeah, I'd say we can alright!"

Shamrock Park is dark because too few lights and they are too far away from the pitch. Belfield looked crap on tv, huge dark patches on the near side of the camera - if it was a camera problem would not appear dark in patches...Originally Posted by Risteard
Maybe move this to eL section for discussion on floodlight quality...?
Don't recall any such problems with the League Cup Final, which was live on telly? Though you're right - it was very dark on screen for some reason.
The club is videoing the games themselves this season and sending the footage into TV3 so I am told.
Most grounds with decent lights come up poor on telly. Tolka is a good example even Turner's X on occasions too
We've always done that, as far as I know?Originally Posted by CollegeTillIDie
Only in recent years have the club been videoing anything. Hence the difficulty compiling footage for a Club DVD etc. In recent years we have videoed games except when TV 3 and RTE on occasion send camera crew along. Apparently we are going to be sending in footage for all games bar the live one.Originally Posted by pineapple stu
Great to see. More clubs should be doing this.Originally Posted by CollegeTillIDie

Well despite what John Delaney and some of the lesser lights think we are one of the more progressive clubs in the LeagueOriginally Posted by NY Hoop
Should I bring a torch tonight to aid the pitchside lighting.
Tomorrow might be more useful.Originally Posted by pete

Jayz pete, you'll be complaining that we've no fans at games next!
Have you not moved to thursday nights?

Lucky you didn't head off early.
