ladyram Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 A debate on RD this morn asked wether people thought Derby should show Euro matches on the big screen outside the Assembly Rooms. Some shop owners were all for it, stating it would be beneficial to a lot of people, which can only be a good thing. Others said it would be bad because if we lose, trouble might kick off and this would, of course, be bad. Would any of you go? Would you expect to see a large police presence - would the police have the resources to do it? Or do you think they shouldn't show them at all, that it would cost too much money? Thought I'd ask all campers for your opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaspode Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 seems a bit pointless having the big screen if it's not going to be used for 'popular' events..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uttoxram75 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Definitely should happen. I'd go if the weather was good. It should be made a party atmosphere, flags and banners, music etc. The pubs could club together for an outside bar, plastic glasses, trestle tables, food stalls - make it a proper party. Better than the jubilee thing................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McRamFan Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 They should show it on the big screen, as well as the olympics. Otherwise, take it down and sell it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaunTheRam Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 It's ridiculous that they wouldn't show it in my opinion. Of everything that is/could be shown on the big screen, surely this would have the biggest audience by far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoetheRam Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Don't see why it would turn into a riot when England get knocked out in the group stages without winning a game (4-1 the latest odds by the way). The Jocks, the Argies or the Germans aren't gonna show up mob handed in Derby are they? I wouldn't go for the reasons Muespach stated, and I couldn't care less if England win it or not, but if they aren't going to show things like this then what's the point in having it?

Duracell Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Saw someone on twitter try and trend #votederbyccout because of this!! That is one of the most pathetic things I've seen in my life. Someone is that bothered about this that they consider it enough to vote out their council. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
