eurosaint Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 I don't know if many of you noticed but the system now is working properly (hurrah ) For the first time you could actually hear the lovely Kenzie word for word ! Progress.... a long time coming but let's celebrate ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellow&blue Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 Plus the substitutions are back to being displayed on the big screens so that saves trying to hear the announcers voice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Rees Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 I was in the Itchen North and we thought it was worse than before! too quiet and couldn't understand a word she or Franny was saying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
100%Red&White Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 The wind must have been blowing in a favourable direction for the OP, we're in the Kingsland (Northam end) and it was as shocking as ever. Could barely make out a thing being said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyNumber7 Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 Yep, in the Kingsland North it was much clearer than usual, although she still sounded muffled when she was interviewing her dad at HT. But for the first time in years I could actually hear what the substitutions were! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lickierambert Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 I was listening on 5 live and you could hear every word Kenzie was saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Kent Saint Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 The tannoy was much improved in block 28 ! BUT the team was only announced once and there was no mention of subs for either side ????? nor did the subs appear on the screens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKD Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 Personally I'm glad you can't hear her. She has an awfully annoying voice and almost certainly wouldn't have that job if it wasn't for her dad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Duckhunter Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 Personally I'm glad you can't hear her. She has an awfully annoying voice and almost certainly wouldn't have that job if it wasn't for her dad... Spot on , she was woeful particularly the substituations . One of the reasons I go to football is to get away from my snap dragon whining on , I don't want to hear an annoying whining voice at the game . Let her walk round at half time , but without a microphone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpsaint Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 Anyone know why Justin wasn't in charge of the subs and half time announcements yesterday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isla Wight Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 Anyone know why Justin wasn't in charge of the subs and half time announcements yesterday? Justin tweeted that he was in Hospital. Don't know the reason why. The only time I could hear Kenzie was when she was in the main announcers room. When she used the pitch side mic it was as awful as ever. I got a call from the club in the close season as I always mention the poor p.a. When survey time comes around. They said it would be sorted. It hasn't been.! Complete waste of time.

John Boy Saint Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 As always the sound quality is spot on.......................................... in the gents under the Chapel!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectisSaint Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 Awful in the Chapel/Itchen corner. Worst that it has ever been. Couldn't hear a word that Kenzie was saying in the interview at HT. It suddenly came back to its usual level about 5 minutes before the end of the game, maybe it was something to do with the radio mike Kenzie was using. Frankly it was quite embarrassing when there was something that you really wanted to hear and that deserved better reception. Still, thankful for small mercies at least I couldn't hear the "motivational" speech from Ralph :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooney Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 The club announced on the OS ion close season that they are aware and will improve the PA this season . Perhaps the speakers in the Kingsland are being tested before full launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I emailed them in the summer and was basically told they're aware of the problem but fixing it was a massive undertaking and it won't be done anytime soon !?

beatlesaint Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 It was as clear as a bell Kingsland Centre - first time in years, a little quiet. they could have bumped the volume up, but every word was audible. I dont know what you mean about Kenzie, she has a lovely voice, her announcing the goalscorer is almost orgasmic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingsland Red Posted 17 October, 2016 Share Posted 17 October, 2016 Yep, we noticed that we could understand the announcements and Benali goings on yesterday. The tannoys aimed at the Kingsland on the half way line actually work for the first time for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK the 2nd Posted 18 October, 2016 Share Posted 18 October, 2016 Clear during the match but couldn't hear at HT, so some improvement. What does p*ss me off though is the ads on the big screen when you glance up to see a opposition player name to number or a replay for live matchs. It always seems to be adverts. Why not have one for ads, twitter etc and the other for match info? You could rotate during the match, say swap over function every 5 mins. This would mean you would still look at both and the ad impact would still there but also info. Might actually increase ad impact as increasingly I look at my phone to see opposition team line up instead of the screens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eurosaint Posted 18 October, 2016 Author Share Posted 18 October, 2016 I'm a bit disappointed to hear that it was sporadic around the stadium, I sit in block 29 (towards the chapel end) and it was absolutely clear as a bell for the first time ever, we even talked about it whilst listening to her so I am not imagining it ! Maybe they turned something around which was good for some but negative for others ! Ah well, maybe some day...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
