CITY FOR LIFE said: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.Tricky_Trev said:I was under the impression that it's a combination of both. Is that incorrect?
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.

streamers are lengths of paper normally on a roll, ticker tape is like confetti but slightly biggermansour's tow ropes said:CITY FOR LIFE said: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.

Didsbury Dave said: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.

I was planning on just launching them without unattaching the first sheet from the roll. East Stand levels 2 and 3 are going to play a giant game of coconut shy with those below. I hope the prize is good for a direct hit!JULES said:right, on a silly note to those chuckin bog rolls, make sure the roll flows out from the top as it will unravel a lot better than having the feed from underneath, I kid you not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Jonny, there is a way to throw these and i'll put down the easy steps to do so.
1. Unravel the streamer so you have about 30ft or longer over you're hand.
2. Throw
3. Watch as the rest of the streamer follows past you're head
4. Make sure you haven't stood on any of the unraveled part or streamer will tear.
