Note made by the Clan Cameraman after folk were asking him on the Purple Army forum about the problem:
"We may have a £55k camera but it still uses memory cards.
Memory cards do fail. Approx 3 minutes into the second period my camera threw up a record error and stopped recording. It was almost 8 minutes into the second period when I got a replacement SxS card brought up to me from my support kit in the back of the DJ booth.
The replacement card saw out the rest of the game without issues.
I added the GoalCam footage to the game tape with a view to covering anything that was missed.
Upon further investigation of the offending SxS card it basically just died. Nothing could be written to or read from it at all."

Mmmm......well if he knew memory cards can fail,why didn't he have a spare one in his pocket,just in case ?
I'm afraid it all seems a little too convenient and coincidental to me !

So nothing could be read from it at all. So there is no footage from the start of the game until 8 mins into the second period from that camera??
I suppose he could have replied..
"The footage was fine and all there. The club decided not to use that angle & state there was a camera fault in order to give DOPS little opportunity to see a bannable offence from a Clan player. Also to maximise the possibility of a ban for a Panthers player."
Yeah right.

If nothing was read from it how come the rest of the game before hand was still shown from that camera? All a little too convenient for it to be believable..

At least you got an answer straight from the horse's mouth, and its also an example why I don't bother posting much anymore, you had a direct answer from an official source why but still chose not to believe it anyway.
Consider this, Panthers have bumped their gums about this to everyone except the one body that could do something about it which is the league. If they did, either the results of their investigation would have been announce with the DOPS PR, or they'd at least state they're looking into the matter for further clarification. Yet there's neither so that tells me the club didn't actually complain.
Folk are talking about this more now way more than the game, the 0 point weekend, or the huge chance to get back into the league blown. So that tells their moan & groan tactics weren't for nothing with the fanbase at least.

So that tells their moan & groan tactics weren't for nothing with the fanbase at least. The loss and the sheer incompetence are two separate issues. For one thing the league is not likely to do anything in the first place so it's of little surprise that we haven't said anything or put in an ask for an investigation. By folk talking about this more, are you stating folk on here, away from here? Because even on pages on social media this isn't being discussed at all, neither is the loss. The thing that is being discussed is amateurish officiating and our final on Sunday. Tbh i couldn't care less about the camera now, over and done with. No ban, clean hit, another league title surely put to bed. "There's always next year"

Sadly though we didn't get a direct answer from the perceived provider of facts in the bottle thread.

This is all utter bs, no video = 12 game ban maximum penalty. This already has a precident set.
What no rule book, make it up as you go along then.
