Progress on the new corner stands?

beddie · Post by **beddie** » Tue Oct 23, 2018 11:07 am

It's still bloody slow progress. DIY SOS would have had it done in a couple of days

They're still working out the safe standing for the carers of the disabled.

Blimey, what size VESA mount do you need for one of those?

They'd mentioned a second screen as well. Wonder where that is likely to go?

Opposite side on top of the other disabled stand.
Makes sense when the biggest stand is the longside, so more people see it.

"A second LED screen is set to be installed at Turf Moor next summer, with discussions continuing as to its optimum location within the stadium."

Looks quite high up. Not sure the occupants of the Bob Lord will be able to tilt their head that high.

If you watch the video you will see it actually looks twice if not 3 times the size of the old one!

Does look smaller than old screen unless it’s an optical illusion.

With the tunnel being in one corner that leaves two corners left.

One where you have plenty of space and a new building to erect to and another where space is limited and only old stands to fix to.
It might be better placed between the Bob Lord and CF but will cost 10x the money to secure it.

Quickenthetempo · Post by **Quickenthetempo** » Tue Oct 23, 2018 11:59 am

I don't think there's room in this corner or the windbreak sides will take any weight.

Whitgord · Post by **Whitgord** » Tue Oct 23, 2018 12:01 pm

I was wrong. The old screen is a lot smaller (forgot about the fixed advert on the left side

New one is definitely a lot wider. Hard to tell how much taller it is though

On top of the new one

Goobs · Post by **Goobs** » Tue Oct 23, 2018 5:10 pm

Second one should go on centre of Bob lord or CF roof. If you do it in the new corner then those in the JM stand probably won't be able to see either of them (assuming they actually care).

Never mind the size of the screen, who has the remote ?

Hopefully the screen will be ‘built in’ rather than just look like it’s been plonked on top!

Excellent progress of the last few weeks. Must say I've missed the screen if only to match a number to an opponent.

They will be removing a good chunk of the side of the stand so shouldn't be an issue for long

I sit in the second row of the JHU, i had a pretty good view of the previous screen but due to the angle and the fact the screen appears to be a few feet further back into the stand it is now virtually useless for me.

I only use the screen for the clock, checking the number of subs used and opposition players etc but it seems slightly strange it isn't as far forward as it was previously.

Hoping for a suitable siting of the second screen.

dougcollins · Post by **dougcollins** » Sun Oct 28, 2018 8:25 pm

Looked like a giant cake-stand in that corner from inside the ground.

As opposed to a bread-bin.

bodge · Post by **bodge** » Sun Oct 28, 2018 8:27 pm

I sit on row O in the BL and i could see the whole of it Grumps.

The second screen will i would imagine be on top of the new stand in the opposite corner, so visible from the Longside.

Not ideal for people in the JMU.

Never mind the screen it's for the less abled amongst us and will look the Bo!!ox....I might obtain a sick note and gain admission misel! A great purpose built space and possibly unique in it's style.well Done Burnley fc.

Or the Longside Lower tbh. I couldn't see any of it.

Claretforever · Post by **Claretforever** » Sun Oct 28, 2018 8:41 pm

The placing of the new screen means it’s only truly visibly to the bottom half of the Bob Lord and the away fans. What a really strange way to locate it.

The entire Longside can’t see it like the old screen, and the Jimmy Mac must have trouble too?

Saying that, the amount of adverts on it probably means it’s not a bad thing.

claptrappers_union · Post by **claptrappers_union** » Sun Oct 28, 2018 8:52 pm

There’s another screen going up. Not 100% sure where yet.

dougcollins · Post by **dougcollins** » Sun Oct 28, 2018 8:54 pm

It's behind the first one.

It's poor form and says a lot about our fans that all the interest at turf moor is about a TV screen. And Not the people who are going to be accommodated within the structure and out of the sh!t weather they've endured for years.
