The bad now:1. No overhead speaker system. No introduction, no announcement of scorer, substitutions, upcoming events, incentives for attendance. Pure silence. A serious missed opportunity and Skeene and posse were there to see this.
2. The electronic scoreboard was working nicely for the first game and went dead for the second game. Could not tell how many minutes were left till ah hear de whistle blow. Loud steups man.
3. Some sloppyness at the gate as a minor pushing scene developed to get in the 1 single working gate where the cashier was hoping that everybody had 30 dullahs in exact change. C'mon people. Skeene are you hearing boss? We can do better than that. Maybe some thinking that it looks good (from a hype point of view) to see people fighting to get in for a local game.
4. TV crews still on the covered side of de field with their backs to the crowd!!!!
as they dependin' on a long extension cord to power their equipment from the covered stand outlet. Oh gor' man. Patriot talk to de people nah. Yes we want de TV crew but it is suicidal for marketing of the TTProleague to see the EMPTY! uncovered stands as a backdrop. Period.
5. No pamphlets nor magazines on sale. Disappointing. Anyway maybe iz first day issues needing ironing out?
6. Most people who coming for de fuss time, eh know which player is which and thus when credit is due, the player has gained nothing and no further market value compared to what he had before. I happened to know, for example who Power was, unlike the person I heard calling him "de rasta fellah".
7. No music, no culture, NUTTEN! on display. Daiz criminal Mr Skeene
