Came past at 7.30 this morning and they are STILL on. :eek:

Can someone make a phone call to the revelant person ? ( I would, but I dont have any numbers )

You would have thought that the last person to leave last night would have noticed a little thing like the lights were on.

:confused: :confused:

I have a great vision of a huge big red switch which clunks up and down to switch the floodlights on and off and the last person out gets the job. Fantastic.
Last night though..... "hmmm, seems brighter than usual in here...? :confused: Oh no! Derek the lighting man's gone home already. Who's going to do the switch?" :cool:

Mind you it brings a whole new meaning to the phrase "Would the last person to leave please turn the lights off".Only at Brentford could the last person to leave forget.

:wave: :sorted:

Its alright, the Chairman will remind the relevant person of their responsibilities in a couple of weeks.

Isn't it annoying for people living in the surroundin area?

It is part of the roof advertising transaction that the lights are on in the evening and then again for an hour or so in the morning which is the busiest time with flights coming into Heathrow.

I think the only person with his hands on a big red switch at GP is Noades, let's hope the lights stay on at GP for a good long time!!

I went out at 11.00 a.m. and they were still on but they were off by the time I came back at 2.30 p.m. Think of all those poor people whose houses back on to the ground. They must have been really annoyed to have the lights shining on their bedroom windows all night long. :nono:

Could be a possible solution should the current planning application get the knock back because of 'rights of light' issues though. :)

? Repairing the pitch
The few moments of the Broncos match I saw on sky showed the surface cutting up badly

Leave the lights on for a while. i'm an electrician and letting the lights stretch they're legs for a while won't do them any harm.

As the Smiths once said "There is a light that never go's out"

You can't put a laughing smilie in with a Smiths lyric, you're meant to be depressed and want to die when listening to them, or is that just me :( Still one of my favourite bands though!!!

Are the lights still on?

Very possible as apparently the film crew wouldn't tell anyone at the club who was going to be there when they were doing their reckee on Wednesday

Wasn't there something about HUGE sponsership deals going on?

Whoever was there filming, it was all very high security stuff...as I turned into Braemar Road to go to the club shop, an over-enthusiastic steward leapt out in front of me, asking "where are you going? how can I help you!"

:eek:

Must have been some heavy duty vips there.

It is, indeed, a Nike commercial. The production company liase with our residents association (and make a donation to our summer barbecue) and we can ususally sort out problems if they are bought to our attention - in the past we have sorted blackout drapes for people affected by late-nght floodlights or film lights.

I think the Bramar Rd security was concerning a shot in the road as I was turned back around the same time. Generally, filming is not too much of a problem; and it should be remembered that once the club give permission a lot of the stuf that goes on is out of their hands. I should imagine that one of the floodlights was left on all night as a security measure.

My mate is working on the ad this week, both Cantana & Henry were due to be in it, however, he didn't know who was going to be where as they were also filming on the pitches under the the Westway (A40).
