Sky Sports - Big Screen : Mon Mar 16, 2009 11:36 am  

Does anyone know the reason why there is no big screen at the Thursday night games? A lot of excitement is lost without it . . .

Also all of the animations that Super League has, eg the TV Screen that comes out of the stand with the tryscorers stats on...

Does anyone have any contact details for peopleat Sky Sports? So I could maybe suggest it?

It quite simply costs thousands.

Sky never use the big screen at games outside Super League

They have it at The Grand Finals day, and I think also at the Northern Rail Cup final.

I am sure that i have read somewhere that the clubs have to hire the screen frame from sky and it costs something in the region of £100k per-season per club - could be wrong though.

Its baisicly a pile of scaffold, Some clubs have kept them up even after been relegated from SL (Cas did and I think Salford did)
