Robbored Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Taken at AG this afternoon. We were at the Senior Reds lunch and the squad photo had the Lansdown Stand as the backdrop. Several of us went out onto the VIP area to see it being taken but were told that we were in the shot - it's a wide angle lens apparently so we had to return to our tables. Senior Reds were in hospitality because the bracket for the new screen was being erected outside of the Heineken. It's looks as if it'll be pretty big. Lisa Knight was our speaker and confirmed that there will be another large screen between the Dolman and the Atyeo. Blimey. Can she talk........

RedM Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Probably best the photo waited until now, we are save from seeing Kodjia, Alying and Agard beaming at us. But I suppose I could have drawn in £ signs above their heads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pity you were asked to move imo., I can remember seeing a team photo that was taken before the first match of the season in the 60's with the fans in the Grandstand Enclosure in the background. Really added to the interest. Hopefully not too many suits and background staff included today. This ruins modern day squad photos for me, and if they have to have one with so many non playing staff then they should do another with just the players, manager, asst. manager and physio in.

Tbh we were a bit surprised that we would have been in the photo. We were across the pitch high up in the Lansdown Stand and a guy - in a suit - asked us to move and explained about the wide camera lens. No-one was remotely bothered.

Tbf she was very good but very talkative but she did say beforehand that she felt more nervous in front of us than she ever did in front of a tv camera. Spoke about Bristol Sport as you'd expect. Someone asked her about the muffled PA system and she explained that it's because the speakers in the Dolman are old ones and they aren't designed to handle the new sound system and that causes the muffled sound. It's work in progress but won't be resolved untill the stadium is completed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I've seen too many squad photos with non playing staff who weren't the manager, asst manager and physios?! Or do you want our esteemed kit man to miss out?!

Didn't we have a groundsman, ticket seller, kitman, painter and decorator included once? On second thoughts, I think that was Terry Cooper.

View from the Dolman Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 They do various ones. One with the core football management/coaching staff, others with directors/club secretary, one with the legendary Marina Dolman, pictures with sponsor representatives etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Goch Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 We've definitely had some weird ones in the past. I remember the Wembley squad photo when Scott Davidson's face was clearly added in to the picture on someone else's body at a later date and then there was the one the following year when the majority of the team were wearing flip flops and trainers.

The best one appeared in the Evil Post. No one had noticed Scott Murray's hand holding Louis Careys thigh/knee and vice-versa ( or something like that).

View from the Dolman Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Is it a Poplar Insulation representative and the players showing their back of shirt sponsor? Not particularly clear though if that's what's being attempted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
