TBH the beam back for the palace game was as crap as the result...palace supporting commentators and a pretty small screen unless you were one of the few who were near the front...so after that experience i wouldn't go to another one unless it was organised differently

Beambacks sitting in actual Amex seats would be a result. Sitting in one of the bars is much less appealing.

Ah good point.

So would we have to buy the rights to our own game to show at dicks then? That could be pricey if so!

I remember Paul Barber mentioning how expensive it was to beam back the Palace game even after charging fans to watch. The numbers were limited too.

Ah thanks for that. Didn't think it would be too expensive. I would rather watch with a few hundred fellow Albion supporters than half a dozen down the pub.

There's ZERO chance all 3 play off games will be shown.

Will be the team most likely to get in play offs on sky, and bham last game.

Is an Amex game ever likely to be shown in a forest?

Maybe one Saturday PB could arrange for a big screen to be set up in Friston Forest and people could sit round on picnic tables watching our home fixture live.

I think it costs more than you would think to do it properly. I believe 2010 said it cost them £6000-£7000 to put it on for the 3-0 loss to you guys in March last year :eek: and that's just the costs for two satellite vans. Can be done cheaper through an internet link but then that can have quality issues.

That is a tiny amount for a football club.
