We sit in the Crumbie & are very disappointed (& slightly irritated by them) to see the newly installed electronic, ever changing, advertising boards running along the Cat (or whatever it is called this season) Stand. We have always struggled with these at Twickers, football grounds etc. & now we appear to have joined the masses.
I'm wondering if there has been an infiltration into Premiership Teams as they seem to be popping up in most of the grounds this season.
One of the adverts, during the Cardiff Blues games when Tigers were wearing the new away strip, made differentiating players position quite a challenge as they blended into the colours of the adverts.
A firm "no thanks" from us!

What pipkoi said, except it's very irritating.
Re: Electronic Advertising Boards
I'm afraid Pipkoi that this is a sign of the times, I have great sympathy with Crumbie fans particularly those who stand on the terrace and those who suffer from epilepsy even if only slightly, it must be difficult to cope at times. The best you can ask Tigers management to do is to ensure that the signs change only once per minute and not continuously, I'm sure that if the timing mechanisms are controlled that this could be achieved. Even so it means between 100 & 110 changes depending on match timing.

I think that they breach health and safety rules.

you soon get used to them
Re: Electronic Advertising Boards
Bit early to say. On the TV they have a very bad effect and at the Millenium.

Re: Electronic Advertising Boards
The advertising boards look fine from where I sit (Row J Caterpillar/GNC/MET-Rx Stand).
