Leicesterlad96 Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 Sorry if this has already been mentioned i couldn't see it anywhere, as we have only been given 2020 tickets for florist a lot of people aren't going to be able to go, do you think its worth asking someone at the club and try to see if they can organize a big screen for those who cant make it? I recon if the weather is nice then thousands of people will turn out to watch it together? If anybody has any email addresses for people at the club please email them and suggest this! COYB
Ashley Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 Great idea mate, i'm sure the club would possibly be interested. It would be extra revenue for them!
Leicester Lass Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 The club are thinking about it. It was raised in the FCC meeting yesterday.

connorlcfc Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 might be a good idea but if we win the next 2 then i'm pretty sure someone will show it whether it be sky espn or a foreign channel but ask the club would love it

Jace Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 If the game is not on Sky which is currently not scheduled to be and since Sky own the broadcasting rights for Championship matches and not the Club I find it very hard to believe they would be up for an idea to play an illegal foreign stream to thousands of fans so I can't see it happening myself.

It'd be very easy for a beamback to be organised between the City Ground and the KP without Sky, believe me. If the game has anything riding on it it'll be live on Sky anyway. They should have two games, with first and second seemingly sewn up, there's just playoffs and relegation to sort. If it's a winner-takes-all game then we'll be on.
Harry - LCFC Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 This is a great idea. To watch the big game with several thousand other people at the KP is the next best to actually being there. Send the club an email, really raise the issue with them. They're much more likely to do it if they know it's a well supported concept. It can't be that expensive an event either
Kitchandro Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 I'd rather watch it in a busy pub than a mostly empty stadium.
Guest kristianity77 Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 I would have thought that if there was a playoff spot riding on the result for either team that this would be made a live game perhaps. Not sure how it works
MIAMI_FOX Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 I'm sure this will be one of the Sky games...I hope so so I can see it on the net here in the U.S
Happy Fox Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 Perhaps these big screens could be put up in Meadow Lane?

The technical ability to do it without Sky is not a problem at all its the licencing to broadcast it with Skys permission which is the massive brick wall that would stop this from happening
FantasticMrFuchs Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 It used to happen years ago I remember watching Leicester Vs Liverpool at the old filbo when we won. If the club want to raise extra income then offering away games on beamback wouldn't be a bad option....Oh no wait Sky have the monopoly on English Football.
AKCJ Posted 18 April 2013 Posted 18 April 2013 The club would have to pay for stewards and the like so, unless the owners feel like being generous, we'd have to pay an entry fee. What I would love to happen is, if we get a positive result, then the players hot foot it back with FoxTravel and come and celebrate with the fans and those who keep their match ticket stub can come join in and we could have one big happy party to celebrate an enjoyable season.

Guest Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 Will sky cover any games ?? Depends where the main story is on the final day really

The match will be broadcast in a private, controlled surrounding. If we wanted to broadcast it online or via some Leicester City TV channel then there would be issues. The Football League would not have a problem with such a thing occurring, and neither would Sky. Heck if the game is on Sky they'd actively encourage it.
Vlad the Fox Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 They used to do it regularly when we were in the prem. Think it cost about tenner a ticket and they used to have it on in the function rooms so you could drink while it was on.

I'm not being silly if it was as easy as you make it out to be all football clubs would be televising away games to non travelling supporters but they currently don't there is a reason why. If the game is televised by Sky and the club pays for the correct broadcasting rights for the correct ammount of people it is planning to broadcast it to then it wouldn't be a problem
RowlattsFox Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 Not for me to be honest, if it was a final or winner gets automatic promotion then I'd consider it. When was last time a club has done a beam back for a game?
