Technical issues have prevented the installation. We are hoping to have this resolved in time for Cambridge however nothing in life seems to go easily or be straight forward!!

Once up the board will have substantial capability that far exceeds its predecessor however again the software that runs the board has several complex issues that means small bite sized steps need to be taken. By the end of the season we hope to have something rather special in place that supporters can be proud of.

The company that we have purchased the board from are in the process of designing new software, this means that operational control of the new board will be simplified. As with any software design progress is always slow.

Well to be fair - if you couldn't / wouldn't change the battery in the clock, or heaven forbid replace it, then we didn't have much confidence in a whole new super duper scoreboard working this side of Christmas.

I sometimes think it would be a complete waste of time and money for a new stadium if the same hit and miss attitude prevails.

Hey what do you mean, as a former programmer i resemble that remark.  It only took me 3 years to write the poll tax system(bloody thatcher and major constantly changing the rules) and just as i got it working perfectly the council binned it and bought a new package. doh!

Im currently a software tester and data analyst so I know these things can take time all software contains bugs but sometimes fixing the bugs can have a knock on effect and create more bugs.  Anyway im just happy we have a new scoreboard but not just that bigger and better (well im hoping it is).  Can anyone remember when the old scoreboard was done?

Sorry you misunderstand, it will be functioning as a scoreboard however the additional functions like previous match highlights, animations for goals, substitutions and many other functions will take time to build. This is a full colour scoreboard that also offers commercial opportunities for the club.

Hmmm, why on earth is new software required? Surely there must be existing packages out there that do what is required, without the need for significant testing. Seems utter madness and expensive to develop new....
