World Cup Final.....
« on: »
IF the boys in white make the final there is some talk about opening HQ and play the final on the screens. I have posed the question, but unless they wheel in a big screen on the pitch there is ZERO % I would go along to watch on those tiny screens. Anybody have any thoughts??

They *could* do it by setting up the stadium in "Concert" mode & have a massive screen at one end. The problem is whether they could get all the sign-offs required in place in time. Could they persuade Richmond Council & The Met to agree to it in a matter of 24/48hrs? As the Final is 9am on a Saturday morning, how many would they expect to be there? Could they get enough stewards & staff in place in time? How about the ticketing? Given there's only 6/7 days between the SFs and the Final, there's no time to send out tickets. Would they go for a full 80k capacity or limit it? Would it be a case of walk up & hope to get in?

I'm not writing off the idea, but there's a lot of hurdles/questions that would need to be cleared/answered to do it, and I doubt that they could get everything in place in time.

My understanding is it will be on the big screens in the seating bowl.
I like they idea, but every rugby club and pub will be showing it on big screens (inside), so I would be surprised if many people want go to Twickers and watch it in the stadium.

9am Kick off
Probably have rail works
As mentioned every rugby club and pub showing it
It would make a game at Allianz park seem like a great atmosphere

£20 a ticket to watch the game on TV????
Then, spend another £10 for breakfast, etc.

I wonder how much Spoons in the high street are charging for entrance?

Free at Dorking pay for breakfast

Free seems a fare price to pay for watching a game on TV.
I am surprised by the £20 price tag.

I wonder if it is aimed more at corporates for them to bring a few clients in for entertaining. If so, then £20 entrance + tenner for breakfast + say another £20 for drinks takes it to £50 per head.  That is probably not bad value for a marketing event.

They were all going to do it in 2015. Only tiny detail - England didn't progress......

Quins were going to do it. They are still using the wrist bands for functions now, that were intended for these supporters functions in 2015
