Old Trafford should have a scoreboard that is visable instead of poky little ones in the corners of stands. Something like you see at hockey game or the Amsterdam ArenA. Well maybe that would be a bit drastic.

I also think that Sir Matt Busby Way should be renovated to look something like the approach to the old wembley with a big sign saying something like
OLD TRAFFORD - HOME OF MANCHESTER UNITED over the top
god, listen to the architect <img src="graemlins/yawn.gif" border="0" alt="[Yawn]" />
 
Have you seen the scoreboard at Stamford Bridge???

- I went to the Chelsea-Spurs-game wednesday, and I saw this gigantic scoreboard... it looked really cool, and you had lots of replays and commercials... BUT... no info were given about bookings, substitutions or anything except the score... THAT was really shite!

- But I'm a big fan I must say, of these big screens... but only if it's used properly... :)
 
I personally don't like those big scoreboards - tacky IMO.

And you should all know the feckin' score anyhoo ;)

- But replays from a different angle is quite cool + some info on the players and stuff...

But if you put Stamford Bridge's scoreboard up against OT's I would still prefer OT as it's used properly... :)
 
Bring back the old light matrix scoreboard...

;)

Don't like the thought of replay screens...

Before the game we'll have picutres of some woman called Betty with about 50 million megastore carrier bags in one hand with a bag of crisps and a prawn sarnie in the other from Liverpool...

That'll be great :rolleyes:

Not to mention the advertising at every opportunity to mention the latest piece of tac from the megastore - Now only 300 quid ...

Please... spare us all, the score boards are bad enough, let alone the fact of bringing in replay boards...

And Sir Matt Busby, Having a big sign over it saying welcome to Old Trafford - don't like the thought of that...

Old Trafford in my opinion is fine as it is, lets not ruin it please

Compare it to any other ground in the premiership and we've been spolit...

Sure theres things not so great about it, but on a whole fairly good...
 
A score board surely is a board to show the score!!

If you want statistics etc - buy a programme!
If you want advertising - sit in the megastore!

The score and time remaining is sufficient for me!!

All this 'Happy birthday to Edna from Torquey' does my fecking head in!

What stadium is better?

We should be grateful - now there's more room for the "true reds" to get in as well as "little Johnny" <img src="graemlins/yawn.gif" border="0" alt="[Yawn]" /> <img src="graemlins/yawn.gif" border="0" alt="[Yawn]" /> <img src="graemlins/yawn.gif" border="0" alt="[Yawn]" />

But what if we miss the goals during a prawn sandwich break?

One doesn't go for the goals, one goes to be seen among the clientelle of the business world, and the C list United-supporting celebs like Angus "twat" Deayton.

God, he is so annoying but to his credit, at least he actually goes to games unlike so many so-called celeb 'fans'
