As a suggestion to support Brian and his team with state of the art equipment ,can we set up a go fund me and everyone who uses parstv can contribute and eliminate the attacks on the guys for poor quality service.

Likewise. Appreciate all that Brian and the team do. Fantastic to have a service like this for all of us who can’t regularly attend games.

Is it not the case that connectivity is the issue rather than the equipment? Not sure what can be done about that unless someone`s invented a foldaway 5G mast.

I would also be happy to contribute, and hugely value the service. However as Jake says perhaps the bulk of problems are cause by lack of facilities at many away grounds. Brian can perhaps advise if there is some kit that would help.

I think Brian posted before saying he`d tried starlink but it wasn`t great.

I looked at setting one up once and it needs a pretty precise angled position and a clear line of sight to the sky. With large metal stands all around, and the equipment under one of these, this isn`t really possible.

4G/5G can be challenging because of congestion (thousands of people using it in a confined area).

What would work would be proper structured cabling and a broadband connection for streaming (by the home or away club). I`d imagine every club has an internet connection already but it`s the space/cabling that isn`t setup.

Brian and team get a fair amount of stick but our club are in a position to try to improve things. David Cook sits on the SPFL Board. Maybe he should be tabling an item for discussion suggesting this becomes part of the bronze/silver/gold club licensing? If teams found their license level dropping they might slowly take action.

If it`s anything short of British Army mobile satellite communications systems I`m going to be disappointed.

I guess it`s easy enough to map out mobile coverage for each of the grounds we visit, but less easy to understand how the networks operate under load with a crowd on a match day. Without dedicated 5G Standalone things are going to be out of control.

And there seems to be loads of problems with clubs not committing to provide space at all, or at least on a timely basis.
