No mention of any yet. It's a bit annoying seeing the new gantry not being used, didn't seem to cause tg4 any trouble but the guy who films for el weekly doesn't seem to keen on going up there.
the problem for him is the sightlines from where he positions his camera on the gantry he cant get the full pitch in view on the old stand and would need a 2nd camera to do that.
He's just a big wuss and cant take the bitter cold wind that comes across it!
ive talked to him and hes as frustrated as anyone with the problem.
How many times have you been on this season? I seem to remember you being on a bit at the start of the season ?
Cork away in Turners X on RTE, Rovers at home on TG4, Drogs away on Setanta was called off, Also Sunderland Friendly was on TG4.
bad design or did we not know this during construction?Quote:

a bit like turners cross where you only see the small stand as no gantry able to go up there facing the good stand!
Its not bad design just he would need 2 cameras to cover the game properly.
Hence it is a bad bloody design, as it should have been designed so only one would be needed. Sheesh.Quote:

So instead of having a gantry that can be used 17 timea a season, we have one that will be used maybe once or twice at the whim of the TV companies
The grant that pays for this gantry is part paid by those same TV Companies.
Oh, well that is okay so, so long as someone else pays for something that is obsolete more often than not, we might as well stick it in there. While we're at it, any chance of getting a few quid off astronomy Ireland to put in a telescope so we can all watch Haley's Comet when it passes by again in 2062. Its true, you really have a difficulty with any sort of criticism, constructive or otherwise, in relation to the club
The man who does the games says the gantry is perfect for good Quality Cameras but for him to cover the game properly he needs 2 cameras .Ask him on Friday night and actually why is it criticism of the club .The club has a minority on the development commitee who are developing the ground.
Well if I'm being honest, my first reaction to any criticism directed towards the club would be to defend GUFC 100%, I suppose thats the baggage thats comes with loving a club...and FFS gufct will you make sure the near gate is open to the season ticket holders for the rest of the season, I've a bad leg ya know...:pQuote:
