CITY GAMES TO BE BEAMED BACK TO MALAYSIA

Tue Jun 26, 2012 8:56 pm

The club are having a TV Gantry fitted above the Premier seats where cameras will beam back games to Malaysia. The club plan to launch its own TV channel in due course as part of the re-branding exercise in conjunction with the plans to attract interest from commercial partners in the Far East.

There will be a lot more advertising of Malaysia inside the stadium from the season start.

As well as tomorrow's meeting with supporters who have requested their season ticket money back, the club are also holding a meeting with Premier seat holders on Thursday.

Malky returns from a family holiday in France tomorrow and will look to add to the squad again with 'quality signings' in the next 10 days.

Interesting to see how they can beam the games back as the club don't own the rights to them - the FL do, collective bargaining?

Could get messy from a legal perspective.

The club already film the games and show the extended highlights on the official site, maybe VT wants a private showing ;) :ayatollah:

Weren't being funny mate, I just thought imagine I said we get bugger all or I said we get £2million extra, would it change your opinion on having a TV gantry above the Premier seats ?

No, not really. As I said to Annis, I'd prefer us to stay blue BUT, if they're offering this amount of investment and THINK (emphasise on the think) they can bring in a few quid from Asia then why not? Besides, it's not like we're the first club to change colours.

I'd also like to add the badge is awful.

Same here Elliott, I want to stay Blue but if the investment and particularly the debt to equity swap is what excites me about the re-branding.

Why are we fitting a new TV gantry? Why can't they use the existing one? Apologies if already asked. Apologies if it's a stupid question. :ayatollah:

Only a guess, but I believe that the majority of our games are filmed from the Ninian Stand and it was posted on here a few days ago, that the additional seats are going to be installed at the top of the Ninian stand! :ayatollah:

But wouldn't they build a purposely-built gantry, a concrete one (not just a makeshift metal one) at the top of the second tier in the Ninian? That was my guess. :ayatollah:

Don't know mate, it may just be that there'll be more room or scope for one in the Premier seating area, especially if the extra 8,000 seats get installed! :ayatollah:

Malaysia is a pretty poor country. Millions of uneducated people, same as most far East countries.
A bit of Media manipulation, plenty of TV coverage...could work.

Still don't see the need to f**k our badge up though. f*cking dull c**t he is

The walk up supporters can watch from home now, drop in attendances maybe :roll:
