First of all, what a win! Well done to everyone involved!
However, the PA system in the Sir Bobby is getting worse. The main speakers on the roof are not working. Surely they can do something to get them working until they put the new PA system in. |  |

I agree that it is impossible to make out anything being said in upper SBR.
This would appear to amount to a breach of both UK and UEFA safety requirements, and you would have thought they would have taken interim steps to improve things. Instead things seem to be getting worse.

"The public address (PA) system should be serviced annually. All zones and speakers may be checked to ensure the sound levels are correct and that all speakers are cleaned. Contingency plans, such as use of a loudhailer/megaphone should be in place in the event the speakers fail during an event. The PA system should be tested before each event.
The PA/stadium announcer is a key role, and it is essential that clear and concise messaging is delivered to all attendees. This person should be trained accordingly and provided with texts written in advance for broadcasting over the public address system.
Scripted words should be drafted and readily available to both the public announcer and the police, in the event of the emergency situations, such as:
Congestion in spectator area in front of entry gates.
Spectators still outside the entry gates at kick-off.
Decision to delay/postpone match.
Clashes between violent groups of supporters.
Penetration of perimeter fence by one or more spectators.
Discovery of potentially explosive/inflammable device.
Threat of attacks with explosive/inflammable devices.
Possible danger caused by poor weather or stadium construction faults.
Danger posed by panic among spectators."
Article 23 of the UEFA regulations.
"23.01 Stadiums must be equipped with an electronic public address system of loudspeakers capable of conveying spoken messages to all areas of the stadium instantaneously.
23.02 The public address system must be connected to a backup power supply and loud enough to be heard both inside and outside the stadium, in all circumstances." [Post edited 7 Dec 11:15]
