Update on scoreboard

Giant scoreboard plans for Exeter City's St James Park home unveiled

Drawings with the application show it would be 8.64m by 5.12m, and be located towards the corner of the Suzuki Tracks stand, near to the Stagecoach stand.

But will it be big enough to be seen from Arizona without the aid of technology?
(Or is it merely a temporary stopgap?)

'Julian Tagg, club president and director of external affairs, added ... “It’s a hugely expensive piece of kit running into the hundreds of thousands, but the fans want it and we want to provide it.”'

This resolves earlier ambiguity about the cost - it will involve hundreds of thousands. There is so much going right at the club at the moment that part of me feels a bit churlish to criticise, but this does seems (uncharacteristically) wasteful spending and something more will regret the next time we face cash flow issues.

Surely it’ll end up paying for itself eventually through advertising?

"the fans want it". Do we? I don't remember being asked. I imagine if most fans had the choice between a scoreboard at hundreds of thousands or a couple of decent signings, most would choose the latter. If the numbers have been crunched and it will pay for itself fair enough, but it doesn't seem like that is what has happened here. Bonkers.

Are we also rebuilding the Old Grandstand?
