We have a main camera gantry that we use for FAX TV which is why I don't get the fuss.

Have you seen the size of the entourage for a live broadcast though?

A camera's still a camera shirley?

The 'main camera angle' is just the one in the middle of the pitch and thus the one in the middle of the stand with the other angle ones down at pitch level.

You generally need other camera positions along the same side as well, not just for the TV coverage but for the video referee as well.

Think this is our 1 chance to show that we actually have a ground fit for super laegue and thatwe can hold big games at the shay. If there are any stands that are closed for this game. its turning the shay into a joke

Quiet at the back

I'm not even sure if we're disagreeing anymore tbh lol. All said and done, even your most tinpot of grounds (which the Shay isn't anyway) shouldn't HAVE to shut an entire stand down so the TV folk can stick some cameras up.

I was down at The Shay today collecting my Sheffield tickets and was told that (as someone mentioned earlier) the club were meeting with the BBC today to discuss siting of cameras etc. I was also told that the BBC would be told in no uncertain terms that the Skircoat Stand would be in use and that they could not have it!

So, assuming that the North Stand will not be available but the other 3 will, what does that make the capacity?

6,800!?!?

Considering that Cas's ground is allowed double that, the mind boggles.
