It's done it's job as a brand with a lot of people using the name. A bit like Pritt Stick or Blu Tack. I wonder what our PA brand actually is?
Whatever was the cheapest. |

Without a doubt as it would have been done on a tender basis. But not to worry, I eagerly await your post blaming the current owners for choice of supplier. |

The sort of thing Alan Partridge would come up with (I'm guessing). |

It might have something to do with the fact the speakers face out towards the pitch instead of towards the fans.
Apart from that my technical appraisal of the system is it’s shît, a bit like Cardoza’s screen with a big green box in the middle of it.

They upgraded the speakers in the North a few years ago and, when they turn them on, do the job very well. Far better than the near 30 year old system still being used in the rest of the ground

The Tannoy/public announcement thingy used at Sixfields was a second hand one bought off Coventry 10 years ago. At no time would anyone blame the current owners for putting their hands in their pockets and actually buying a new one |
