ElusiveEd Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 Now wouldn't it be cool if they could show screenings live at local cinemas? 3D or Imax? I remember my brother going to watch the Tony Sibson/Marvin Hagler fight live at the Odeon which was being screened from Massachusetts. And that was back in 1983.
Buzzell Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 I'm hoping for Sky to cover this game. There's no chance of me getting a ticket for this. All depends on the situation at the time because if we're still both fighting for playoffs, it's a must win game, surely they will cover it.

I remember my brother going to watch the Tony Sibson/Marvin Hagler fight live at the Odeon which was being screened from Massachusetts. And that was back in 1983. I've always thought there'd be some market for cinemas to screen live games for a small charge. Obviously sky pump more money in or it'd probably have been done by now
whoareyaaa Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 The club used to do this back in the day I remember me and my mate used to go to most of them, don't know if rules have changed now but would be good if they could sort this out.
dynamark Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 I remember the sibson fight in the odeon by far the most violent,intimidating,horrible atmosphere i have even been in.Cinema packed with drunken fight fans at 2 in the morning all baying for blood.
Floating Fox Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 As Vlad said they did it not that many years ago for important games not on TV, they held it in a function room somewhere in the Walkers, so can't see there being much of a problem. I imagine if it's live on sky people would rather watch it in a pub though.
Teeno 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 sure they had about 7/8 that season. I remember watching Porstmouth away as well as Southampton on a Monday when Dabizas made his debut.
JayPittardBlueatheart Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 I say sit in the home stand at the sh**ty ground for the game..... COYB!!!
Filbert The Fox Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 Not sure if it can be done BUT. What about the BIG screen in the town.Is there not a way that it could be shown on that. Imagine Thousands of city fans watching it there.Or would the police have a say in it? Wasn't it put there for showing BIG events if so for us Leicester fans it doesn't get much bigger. Bet if it was the Tigers they'd show it.
FoxesAreBlue Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 Good luck - they didn't even sow the England games on that last summer so fat chance of them showing Leicester.
Fox92 Posted 19 April 2013 Posted 19 April 2013 I suggested this idea the other day in the ticket thread. Everyone who doesn't go can watch together, no trouble and the club can still make money via drink/food sales (prices cheaper than matchday though!)
Poznan34 Posted 21 April 2013 Posted 21 April 2013 They announced at the Palace game yesterday that their game against Millwall was being shown on the big screen at their ground when the game is on. Shows that its possible to do it if the club wants to put it on.

Jakemoore Posted 22 April 2013 Posted 22 April 2013 I emailed fanzone and this was their response - "Dear Jake, Thank you for your email to fanzone. This is something we are looking at for supporters but no decision can made at the moment, however, if anything can be done we will make an announcement. Kind Regards" So hopefully something will happen!

Imagine Thousands of city fans watching it there.Or would the police have a say in it? Wasn't it put there for showing BIG events if so for us Leicester fans it doesn't get much bigger. Bet if it was the Tigers they'd show it. I was thinking that, it'd be an ideal solution and would draw loads of people into town. Thinking about it - it's very likely that the game's outcome will decide if us or Forest get into the playoffs, and as a derby with so much at stake there could be monumental fighting in Nottingham whatever the outcome. Nottingham police won't want anyone in town from Leicester, especially those who don't have tickets to the game so they would probably push the idea to Leicester Constabulary/council Also, loads extra people in town for the day would benefit shops, pubs, cafes, the market, thousands who couldn't get a ticket - would be a shame if it didn't happen really
Larry_LCFC Posted 28 April 2013 Posted 28 April 2013 Still a lot riding on this game. Anymore been said about showing it at the KP?
Harry - LCFC Posted 28 April 2013 Posted 28 April 2013 Somewhat relevant - Palace are going to have that beamback thing running at Selhurst Park for their game with Millwall.
peach0000 Posted 28 April 2013 Posted 28 April 2013 Somewhat relevant - Palace are going to have that beamback thing running at Selhurst Park for a their game with Millwall. £10 or £15 on the day sounds too much hope leicester will charge less if it happens
Larry_LCFC Posted 28 April 2013 Posted 28 April 2013 Somewhat relevant - Palace are going to have that beamback thing running at Selhurst Park for a their game with Millwall. Interesting. Can clearly be done then. I would deffo go.
Sydney the Fox Posted 28 April 2013 Posted 28 April 2013 Interesting. Can clearly be done then. I would deffo go. i would be tempted aswell
Deucalion Posted 28 April 2013 Posted 28 April 2013 £10 or £15 on the day sounds too much hope leicester will charge less if it happens It used to be £10 back when we were in the Premier League.

Sydney the Fox Posted 28 April 2013 Posted 28 April 2013 Professional no IMO, unfortunately. sounds that way
SmithyFox12 Posted 28 April 2013 Posted 28 April 2013 Would be good to put it on that big screen in the middle of the city centre.
