The new Big Screen at the Park will make its debut this Saturday as we face Salford City.
We have been working tirelessly to make sure the screen is a fantastic addition to the match day experience at St James Park and will feature a range of pre-match video content and selected advertising from our partners, as well as the team news and announcements such as the 50/50 draw and the attendance figure and the scores and timer during the match.
As the screen is a new addition, we plan to add and evolve it over the coming months, and the rest of the season gives us plenty of time to test content and ask for feedback from supporters.
Please note that the screen is not yet connected to the tannoy at St James Park, this will be added soon alongside a camera that allows the presenter to be shown on the screen.
Examples of other functions and content we will be looking to add are half-time and full-time scores, birthday announcements, social media feeds the potential for goal replays. All of this is within the capacity of the system as we learn and develop.
If you have any feedback or suggestions after the match, please email: media@ecfc.co.uk.
