Always good to watch the Youtube Highlight - you to?

[bigrob]

I was at Millwall vs Forest last night.

First goal at the far end - got it but with an empty stand behind and no goal/keeper in the pic it was a throwaway shot.

Second goal at my end. I was trying to remember why I had out of focus shots of David Forde trying to save it.

Third goal at my end. I have a shot of it going past the keeper.

Fourth goal at the far end got it.

Anyway the highlights are out on Youtube. Watched them and for the two goals I missed I can see that I would have been blocked and that's why I must have tried to get the keepers.

It is some consolation even if 3 of the celes were away from me.

Anyone else watch highlights forthis reason as well as to see the game from a different perspective.

n.b. I was also blocked from the Billy Davies confronts photographer incident at the end of the game.

Good to meet you yesterday Rob. You got a couple of shows in the Mail Online didn't you?

Hi Dave

Yes good to meet you to, even though you nicked 'my' spot. I would have got there earlier but there was a queue for the sh*tter in the Press Room :bang:

If I had moved there at half time when you went down to the other end I would have got the Woolford goal and cele..

I never even saw the Billy Davies incident so really well spotted. Has it been used yet? I looked up, saw that Lomas had done his usual rat down a tunnel and f***cked off. My other excuse is that Davies' back was towards me.

If not used yet I am sure it is going to be.

Yes I was lucky enough to get a couple of shows on the Mail Online report. First time they have used more than one of my photos so well chuffed.

I'm back there on Sat as they play Wigan - i.e. not exactly the match of the season. However I am fine with that as hopefully less competition.

Highlights here if you haven't seen them yet

n.b. what camera/lens and settings were you using for your remote camera?

Haha, early bird catches the worm lol!

I was regretting the move at half time after the Woolford goal - the cele was right in front of where I was sitting but it did make up for it when I caught the Billy Davies incident. The only use I've seen is an image (not as good as mine obviously, lol!) in the Guardian online from Action Images, who must have been the guy sitting the other side of the goal. Fingers crossed on some use but the window may have passed now.

Thanks for the highlights link, I'll take a look and congratulations of the usage, only problem is the sliding scale of payment

I'm at QPR this Saturday.

The camera behind the goal was set at 1/400, f4, ISO2500, it's a 50D and a 10-22 lens. Not ideal settings but best I could get with the lighting and equipment limitations really. Didn't really get anything worth using though.

Unfortunately not many YouTube (or other) highlights of the games I cover - otherwise a good idea and would probably teach me few things on where to sit next time..
