singe Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I got the impression previously they could direct the ai traffic to Ringway, whereas yesterday they seemed the right level to notice them but not be blinded. OR is that just me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I want to see illuminations I'll go to Blackpool. Btw. Off the top of your head can you list all the advertisers and if you or your business associates have bought anything from them as a result of these boards?

LaticsPete Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I think going to the cinema has been ruined. It’s a distraction having to listen instead of just looking at the pictures. And the colour is off putting. Nowt wrong with black and white. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had earache from the booming sound. As you know I'm a dinosaur and paying to watch one movie and half an hour of adverts is hardly progress from the treat of 2 feature films, a cliffhanger serial, cartoons and a newsreel. All the while looking forward to watching entertainers like Bobby Johnstone and Alan Groves home and away. Glad I'm prehistoric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think any of the ads. are paid for at the moment. They seem to be all our sponsors who get the advertising as part of the deal. That's what needs to be fixed, but in the current Covid world, not many businesses will be willing to fork out to advertise at a football club.

What next, moving adverts as managers and players are interviewed on Sky and BT Sports? Edited March 10, 2021 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
