Re: Streamer & Ticker tape at the Derby, UPDATE !!!!

I'm sure this will have been asked somewhere within this thread, but i can't be bothered searching through it all! Have the club ensured that there'll be a pretty even spread of streamers around the stadium? We wouldn't want the more atmoshperic areas of the ground looking class, with the north stand and parts of the east and CB stands being barron. Have the club gone as mental as they possibly can in terms of the numbers of streamers being provided? I certainly hope so. We NEED to make sure we do this well. If there's too few streamers, it'll look naff. It needs to be crazy.

Is there a certain technique in throwing these streamers?, because i don't want to end up looking like an arse and hitting someone in the head! I'm at the back of the east stand, tier 2, aisle 204 (doesn't say 'block' on season ticket) and I'll hopefully get some :)

It will be only be naff if the club facilitate it.

It sounds like it's just fans, so great.

I was under the impression that it's a combination of both. Is that incorrect?

Like I said way back in the thread, after I 1st spoke to the club about doing this it was agreed that the focus would be on the EAST STAND due to the fact the players will walk into full view of it, while also the postioning of the Sky Cameras were taken into consideration.
The club then agreed after I asked to put stuff on L2 + 3 in the front few rows this then changed to most of the rows.
They can't put streamers on L1 as it would cover most of the pitch and they can not afford to delay the KO.
So I believe ticker tape will be put on that area. What has happened since is 100's of poeple have now got inviolved in taking stuff into alll the other areas wich the club think is great.
You have to remember when I first approached them I was asking for 1000's of fans to be allowed to throw something on Derby day, this soon involved the H&S, police and cleaners to name a few, but I managed to get it agreed and it has taken off from there.
The club have been briliant and just hope now they stand by their word which I have no doubt at all they will. The guy as been a top man I have been dealing with.

By the way, the best thing you guys could do is contact the press with this. They'll run with it this week. And that will really get your message out beyond the smallish world of cyberspace.

Do a little Press Release and email it out. There are loads on here who could give you email addresses for the right people.

If you want I'll write you a Press Release. It will take 5 minutes.
