Floodlights

[Gezza]

Is it just me or do the floodlights from the new stand fail to match, in terms of light,  the floodlights on the Johnny Haynes side of the pitch. I thought this on Saturday at it seems to be borne out when watching the highlights as the pitch nearer the new stand is darker. Did anyone else notice ?

Thats because the bloody things are pointing smack bang at my row in the JH stand, blinding everyone in those rows in front and behind all along the stand.
Not that the club care.

This.  It's ridiculous.  The NHS will be prescribing half season tickets for Vitamin D deficiency cases.

I noticed it from the first time we had them on this season it's noticeably darker riverside of the pitch.

Is this something for the FST to bring up at the next meeting if it's not already been raised. This should be fixed, they can't keep blinding fans in other stands

Absolutely agree - must be brought up to the trust

I noticed players shielding there eyes a couple of times from the new stand lights.

My mate sits in the JH stand and recons he got sunburn from the lights, like something from 'Close encounters of the third kind' movie!

I do believe it has been raised twice by the FST and that the club / installers were looking into it. I think that all supporters affected by this need to email the club with info otherwise it will go unchanged

It has, it was in the last set of minutes.

Agree, I too am suffering from this problem in the JH stand. I have posted previously saying we need a special big peak cap for evening matches.

[HamsterWheel]

Same halfway up the Hammersmith for me (from the lights above the Cottage). Why are they lighting up the stands and not just the pitch and 6 feet above it? You don't light the audience in a theatre!

yep, they have asked and club say its not an issue all within regs etc etc etc.

Well it will be interesting to see what the reaction is after tomorrow night's game against Derby.  I will be in the Hammy end and interested to see if there is an issue there.  Those in the JH stand should also post their regards their experience.

...but unfortunately they couldn't see anything because of the blinding light.

Blinded by the light...

Could be an apt choice for the Friday music thread
