Spider cam is here

Postby Wonderwall » Thu Jan 12, 2017 10:09 am

Sky are going to use spidercam for the first time in the prem this weekend at the rags v dippers game.

Should add some interesting views. I think it's a good addition. No idea what will happen if the ball hits it though.

I've often thought to myself,although highly unlikely,imagine it snapping from the line,and landing on the pitch,be great if it happened this Sunday and landed on......well any of the rags really

If you watch Spencer FC on youtube, they place gopro's in the corners of the goal. They get battered all the time and come out of it fine.

I'm sure the Premier League can spring for sturdier ones than that.

It's the camera suspended on wires to the 4 corners of the ground and follows the play from an aerial view.

It means we will get a better view of all the offside goals the rags are given
