    Bristol City and Exeter City yo name but two, have installed big screens for the England matches. Money could have been made from car parking refreshments etc.

    Errrr, if you are thinking about putting screens on the pitch, then think again. It’s all been redone and growing ready for pre-season.

    Maybe these 2 clubs didn’t re-seed this year. I know we don’t do it every season either.

    Wouldn't really need to be in the stadium as @granty the red said in his thread could just have a screen round the back of the East stand and open up the bar. Almost certainly too late to arrange anything now which is a shame.

    I just thought getting hold of some big screens at this moment in time could be tricky

    Big screen in front of club shop, east stand car park full of stalls with food and drink and stuff for the kids to do, ice cream van, BBQs, Redfearns open etc. Beem back for Gainsborough game beforehand you could have a few thousand down at Oakwell spending from 11 to 6 easily.

    Maybe plans are in place for this when we reach the final.....Not that the club shop could sell the new kit.

    Straight darn road at Hoyle mill. Near the light spot. They hire out those big screens on wheels

    Summat like that would be possible in the new tarn centre due to the square so maybe the next euros.
