Torquay United Fans Forum

Scott's link is for BBC commentaries.

This one is for YouTube videos highlights and interviews: http://www.youtube.com/user/GullsPlayer ... ture=watch

does this mean that our games are on the web without needing to pay for that horrible Gulls Player?

Schedule says : Saturday 27 September 2014
Comprehensive coverage of Devon's sporting action. Football commentary NOT online. Exeter City welcome one of the pre-season promotion favourites to Saint James Park when Bury come to town. Plymouth Argyle make the long trip north to take on Accrington Stanley. In the Conference, Torquay United are at AFC Telford United while Plymouth Argyle host Bedford.

Radio Devon replied: Thank you for that – I have to be honest and say I don’t necessarily look at that web page – I shall ask the powers that be to look at that (basically we do now have the rights to Torquay on the web but not City and Argyle).The policy is that ALL Torquay games should go on that page that I have sent you (there are only a finite number of lines so there is a slim chance that occasionally we will miss out).

Some Saturday games will also go on the Listen Live page on the main BBC Devon website (we also have the web rights to the Exeter Chiefs, Plymouth Albion and FA Cup games) but on Sundays and/or midweek they will take music programmes.

To the best of my knowledge all of Torquay’s games so far have gone on the BBC web somewhere but I can see that what you’ve been looking at is misleading so I’m trying to find out who is responsible for that page and get it changed in the future.


Best Wishes

That's the link that is always used. Maybe people were just looking in the wrong place.

The BBC took note of his e-mail, then..??

Good to see interviews with the players, and footage taken at the training ground. That's something other clubs put on their player quite a bit, and it'd be good to see some more of that from us, while the going is good!

I spoke with Patrick (HATES being called Paddy, apparently) on Tuesday. He's seen this (he expedited the new cameras on the basis that they were popular - thanks for that, big guy) and will look to incorporate the replays etc for the next set of highlights.

He's a nice bloke, that Patrick, and he's got a really shiny head.

Matt.

Ditto the above. Replays showing the alternative view else it jumps around and is difficult to watch.

Have to agree with above. Show it in a replay

I agree with Matt and was going to post a similar comment myself. Really love the fact that we've got another angle, but you have to show the 'normal' angle first. It's what the pros do!

Cool video, Paddy, but can I make a request? I know the trouble you have with the big screen, but I'm hoping you haven't the same difficulty with video editing. Could we please have the main camera angle shown for everything, with other angles (such as the marvellous 'in-goal cam') as replays?

Matt.

Yeah, much better highlights, premierleaguegull has done really well! Just a shame the game was s**t!

Dover game-



Liking the camera in the goal!!
