Hes signed a contract to have a new P.A system installed in the close season.
Would you rather him put the money into the playing budget.
No, I would not. Part of the matchday experience is your comfortable surroundings. The logical end to putting EVERY penny into player recruitement is to not spend a thing on ground improvements (which must include an efficient P.A. system) and let it fall into a depressing ruin. We now have a stadium to be proud of and when you watch Goal Rush on Ch5 or visit some of the dismal "stadia" in Leagues 1&2 you can see the result - what looks like corrugated-iron sheds on a bomb-site.
I have no problems hearing in the Pavis stand ( apologies to anyone on the Kop who can't ) , and I quite enjoy the announcers enthusiasm. The bloke who has presided over the last few seasons would be better suited to a railway station in my opinion.

I would imagine it's money from the cup run,like the scoreboard was to be fixed if we had progressed in the tinpot cup
Things are improving at last.....by next season we might be able to hear the announcements PLUS AH might sort out the shirt numbers so I can see who is playing...no need to bother with the Goalies shirt....he is the guy in pink stood between the two sticks of wood at the end of the pitch.....saved some money there then.
"We",Tarquin? It would have to be a bloody good system for you to hear it in Mexico. I agree with you about the numbers on shirts though, AH had an opinion poll on whether we should change them from the gold to a red, I don't know how that turned out but they are still gold.
Yes Mr Laxton, "we"....Matchday here in Mexico starts with a healthy dose of Charlie and Stall, live from the ground with the tannoy in the background!....followed at 2.55pm your time, with live pics on iFollow.....with tannoy!! and live crowd noises...there are some right gobby oldies sat up near the back of the Pavis btw near the microphones...."moan, moan, grumble, moan, ffs kick it man, no not there, pass it, get it on the ground, get him off Nolo, waste of a shirt, you are a tosser ref, burble burble tannoy.....how many minutes of injury time...is that a joke"
