Now we have intelligent players and staff we don't need a scoreboard as they can remember what the score is. We have moved on from the David Kemp days!

I'd rather people didn't try and tell our chairman how to spend HIS money, and just be grateful that he's willing to invest in the club at all. I think all fans are allowed an opinion, and football chairmen are the last people who should be exempt from questions. Of course. Although this has been a promotion season, with some great cup runs, add to that the fact we've been playing the best football since I've been old enough to watch us. Off the pitch has seen probably an even greater improvement over the last two seasons than on it and yet it doesn't seem like enough for some people. If you're not content with how things are being run now, when will you be?

Fair comment, and I agree with you, it's been great The club and the fans are as tight now as at any point that I can remember.

GBT has a lot to answer for, the running of the club this summer has been a shambles. Season tickets on sale late, not sent out yet, moving the family stand, farce over 4th stand, scoreboard not in place for first home game, corporate facilities manager leaving and in a mess. There is clearly a breakdown with Firoz too that has got petty as all club officials now refer to the Kassam as Grenoble road

To be fair why would u put it in the corner of ss and new stand? That mean the biggest capacity stand can't see it, and if ur using it for advertising surely that's the idea . Put it at the back of the east stand, they ain't worried to busy singing

Perhaps there will be infrastructure in the corner, such as turnstiles, toilets.

As with the pitch you would have thought that the responsibility for this would have been Stadco, but yet again it looks like the club are going to have to find the funds. Surely the Scoreboard should be classed as part of the fixtures and fittings of the stadium.

Certainly does not seem as efficient as MA. The only positive, is the unofficial ""renaming of the stadium to Grenoble Road "". Maybe we can all call it that on the forum, and the hated word K****m is banned.

Put it on the east stand, please the majority who pay more, rather than the low level oiks in the east stand plus the average age in the ssu is a lot lot higher, so with their memory's, it will benefit them more to know the score

Stick it on a big frame behind and above the Centre of the West Stand.

As for the rest of the quoted post, ascotyellow, why not seek out GBT, a very available and approachable chap, and tell him how you feel? Maybe you could demand his resignation and exile from Oxford. Or, you could refrain from making stuff up that you almost certainly have no understanding of and seek facts before you defame someone on a message board. Let us know when you've have a chat with GBT. I look forward to your report.

I'm not sure what the farce with the move of family area is? This had to happen to allow the setup of the 4th stand.

My memory tells me that GBT was the club's representative in Portugal, because Darryl said that GBTvoted for it as it was just a one year trial....but we would consult the fans in future. Whatever there seem to have been to many cock ups in the close season

There is clearly a breakdown with Firoz too that has got petty as all club officials now refer to the Kassam as Grenoble road That is quite a lot of criticisms of one person from somebody who I am guessing does not know what is going on behind the scenes? I wonder whether it is a little wind up. ST's it appears have been left in the hands of Ticketmaster (which was I assume agreed before GBT was on board. ST's were NOT on sale late. They went on sale the same time as usual. They have been sent out later than I would have thought sensible, but the vast majority will get receive tomorrow we are told. Scoreboard has been out of order for half a season so GBT getting in by second game of the season seems a big improvement (and why I think that the post above is a wind up). Who knows what is happening with Firoz- my assumption is that DE is the main man in that respect.

I reckon it is really nice that GBT thinks a little like the rest of us when it comes to this. At the Barnet game last season I remember thinking to myself how smart their scoreboard was and how it would be good if OUFC had one..
