Hope it's got an SD card slot so I can watch my photos on slideshow.

Will you be able to see the screen from the Skyview Restaurant at Tiny or will the Castle be in the way?
what benefit does a big screen bring ?
I go to watch the game in person.
The big screen is not to watch the game. I’ve seen so many people say this. The big screen is there for revenue generation through advertising, to promote Hibs and Hibs products to the thousands that are in attendance at games, and to appeal to the younger generation that they might get shown on the big screen at the game thus deepening their connection with the club. It’s a money maker pure and simple.
Just imagine its a wet Tuesday, we're 3 nil down at half time to Hamilton and you want to go home but realise you can wath rhe 2nd part of Corrie on the big screen to cheer you up. Meanwhile on the pitch Doiger hits a double hatrick and you missed all the goals because Sally and Gail were having a barney...
If you look at the picture I posted in post#34, the big V on the right hand side is an advert for something called Volume. I still have no idea what they were selling but that image will have brought in a few thousand quid to the club.
The main picture shows the score between 'Ryan's Royals' and Blackburn. Ryan was a terminally ill youngster whose short life was made much happier though the club's engagement with him - a very worthy cause IMO and I'm sure he was absolutely thrilled to see that image.
Both sections change throughout the match with ads on the right and a delayed stream of the match on the left interspersed with birthday messages, some more ads and replays of major incidents. If something happens on the field that I didn't quite see or understand (increasingly likely at my age) I automatically look at the screen to see if a second viewing helps.
In short the screen brings in a lot of money for the club and enhances my matchday experience, it's just a shame that the fitba' on show isn't doing either right now (look at the 'crowd').
All in favour of the big screen but in the winter /spring the sun often shines right into the East. Hope it doesn't spoil the image.
The modern big screens can handle sun directly on it. I watched a few games of the last World Cup on one and it was pretty amazing in the sun.
Any pictures of the proposal?!
This is how St Mirren make some money from their big screen

Is the screen installation still going to happen?
No - money being diverted to build a plaza style areas for social distanced clapping sessions with options for triple cooked chips :)
Does it still make sense in the current climate? Possibly not until it’s clear what the deal will be with return to Stadium capacity.
Although is were ever going to do it perhaps now is a chance to do so at a knock-down price? But likely money best spent elsewhere.
If I remember rightly, they used to show the goals after their games at Tynecastle on the screens in the concourse!
It caused no end of bother with people stopping to watch while others wanted out!!!
Games to be projected onto Salisbury Crags so fans can watch socially distanced in Holyrood Park.
Is there any updates on this big screen ? :confused:
Anyone remember when Kenny Waugh introduced the half time scores via a code but you had to buy a programme to have the code ? i think it lasted about thirty seconds before the outcry was so great it was abandoned.
Anyone remember the old guy that used to walk around the pitch with the blackboard at half-time with the ‘Lucky Programme Number’ on it ?
IIRC everyone used to throw the remains of their inedible pies at it :greengrin
Golden Goal tickets. Imagine the rage now, 45+2 90+6. Throw a pie at that.
