Tannoy
Re: Tannoy
I'm missing the quality choooons that we play at half time.
Plus I need to be reminded that I am the 12th man or to get right behind the bluebirds or whatever it is.

You cannot hear any announcements in that area of the ground.daltonbellringer wrote: ↑Sat Nov 11, 2017 5:43 pm wehen is this tannoy going to be fixed, i along with a few others are refusing to buy raffle tickets until it is sorted, unfortunately it is the trust that is losing out not the club![]()
What is the point of sponsoring the club if people cannot hear their names/company being announced.
It has been many weeks since it stopped and all we have had is promises.
Looks like another broken promise.

Re: Tannoy
The trust always put the results of the raffle on here, so it shouldn't stop you as a forum member buying tickets.daltonbellringer wrote: ↑Sat Nov 11, 2017 5:43 pm wehen is this tannoy going to be fixed, i along with a few others are refusing to buy raffle tickets until it is sorted, unfortunately it is the trust that is losing out not the club![]()

Re: Tannoy
The club is not complying with The Safety of Sports Grounds Act 1975, which says that all areas of the ground should have a communication system that can be heard in the event of an emergency such as a fire.
God forbid that we have a major incident.
Get it sorted Mr. Managing Director!

Are stewards with radios and the ability to shout not effective and a communication system?barrowfan wrote: ↑Sat Nov 11, 2017 8:03 pm The club is not complying with The Safety of Sports Grounds Act 1975, which says that all areas of the ground should have a communication system that can be heard in the event of an emergency such as a fire.

Re: Tannoy
I know a hand loud speaker was attempted at recent home game but didn’t work so araffle tkt seller walked round stand announcing the winners.Until the Problem gets fixed with the wiring etc can we not get a child to walk round pitch half time with results displayed on board the old fashioned way?Would merely mean draw being done earlier.

Re: Tannoy
We are talking about a possible major event such as a fire, not raffle tickets.
To hear (if you’ll pardon the pun) that a loud hailer was not working in addition to the tannoy not working may be funny to some but it’s serious, and it’s breaking the law!
What’s the prize going to be in the next raffle? Being first out in the event of a fire
in the stand?

What if the fire took the wires out first?? It's a small stand where a voice can be heard.barrowfan wrote: ↑Sat Nov 11, 2017 8:46 pm We are talking about a possible major event such as a fire, not raffle tickets.

Re: Tannoy
You may think this is funny but read the Safety of Sports Grounds Act which says that a sports ground should be equipped with communications equipment that can be heard in the event of an emergency. The minimum is a loud hailer that works. The lack of even a loud hailer shows what a tinpot outfit we have become and how little the club thinks about the safety of spectators who pay good money to attend.boyliegladbach wrote: ↑Sat Nov 11, 2017 8:49 pmWhat if the fire took the wires out first??

Re: Tannoy
I don’t think it’s funny. But I do think that if I was stood in a corner of the main stand and should FIRE as loud as i could then it would be heard,barrowfan wrote: ↑Sat Nov 11, 2017 9:24 pmYou may think this is funny but read the Safety of Sports Grounds Act which says that a sports ground should be equipped with communications equipment that can be heard in the event of an emergency.

I think your looking for problems for the sake of it .
The announcer of the fire isn’t any wher3 near it!!
I bet your one of them that has everything in the red on risk assessments “just in case”
Re: Tannoy
The stand was fairly full today and it took about 10 minutes to get out and that was for a fit person. There were also people in there on walking frames and sticks who were holding back until everyone else got out. I am not a health and safety freak but I do have the ability to spot a potential problem and I'm asking the club to get it sorted. When they held that match where there was no tannoy or loud hailer they were breaking the law, as well as endangering peoples lives.boyliegladbach wrote: ↑Sat Nov 11, 2017 9:43 pmI don’t think it’s funny.
