    Wonder if there will be different adds based on broadcasting location etc.

    About time. Always thought these were needed. Seemed like we were the only ones without them.

    Too bleeding good for this division, just needs a couple of new sofas and we're all sorted.

    I find them a distraction, especially on telly but it’s progress I suppose. If football ever ends up like rugby with adverts painted on the pitch I’m out.

    It is what it is.
    Away at Wimbledon last season something like that made it hard to follow the action, hope ours are better.

    Maybe they could run CL match thread posts on them, that would get the crowd going!!!🤣 do hope it wasn’t paid for out of the pope money!!

    So that's why the museum didn't tweet our usual Friday photo of the pitch.

    Something Wayne Mumford spoke about in 2021.

    Obviously there is a cost but the projections were that they would pay for themselves in few months.

    I haven't seen the figures so have no idea if that was/is realistic.

     Ever understood why it took so long to get these! 
    Surely selling multiple packages for a certain amount of adverts shown during a game , is better than one package for a whole season!

    I've noticed that some clubs (Man City, Wolves e.g.) now have double rows of boards that can somehow using 'jiggery pokery' double the height of the advertisement to the TV audience.  It's a right nuisance.   Man City took out over a 1000 seats in order to install and then offer (they say) the most commercially valuable pitch side space in the premier league.

    Also using another form of 'jiggery pokery' (virtual replacement technology) they can display different ads simultaneously to different countries or channels or whatever.

    It’s progress of sorts and if it brings in some more income then “I’m in.”

    Dear oh dear Nick!
    The set up costs will be recouped within a few months, pretty much profit all the way thereafter.
    A sensible project wouldn’t you say?

    let's hope the games are more interesting to watch than the flashy ads  :)

    Well you can’t be sure these days Nick……there are a few who will find even the minutest detail to moan about……like the colour of the new shirts for example.😇
