Open Air Screening of Games ?

[GABS]

Does anyone know of any parks etc that are showing WC games on a large screen ? I am off to the Clapham Grand to watch the first England game but having just looked at the weather forecast (28c !) got me thinking about alternatives in the great outdoors.

Canary ****ing Wharf? What a joke! Why can't they find a central London venue? I'm a hacked off licence fee payer. :mad1:

I shall be watching England v Sweden on the giant screen at the Brandenburg Gate. Does that help? :wave: :)

Go to Canary Wharf at lunchtime and you'll see why.

[Edmundo]

There aren't any games at lunchtime though, are there? Kick offs at 2pm, 5pm and 8pm.

I was at CW at lunchtime today and can't believe how busy it was compared to when I was last there. Incredible. I think there were at most 8 retail outlets when I first worked there :eek:

I will most likely be at the same bar where we caught the Germany game in 2001 . :sorted: Not much sunshine over here at the mo, but at 9 in the morning it probably won't matter! :wave:

I was at chanary wharf today. Screen was turned off after 70 mins as a mini riot broke out. glass bottles being thrown, at police and in every which direction. Scuffles and some glass doors broken :box:

Still, dosnt look like i missed much

[Ronan]

I was there too :eek: Someone threw a glass bottle at someone else 5 yards away and the guy was bleeding everywhere :eek:

bunch of 'merchant bankers'

[Ronan]

We saw on the top floor of a building a conference or something going on but when the fights broke out everyone was pressed against the window :yes:

[beeware]

Birmingham wouldn't screen the England match because of crowd safety but they are showing all the other matches.

Exactly why I now watch England games indoors and not in pubs or with others I do not know.
Too many pricks in my opinion.

Oh I dunno, sounds morre fun than the game itself.

Couldn't agree more. The great british public just love to flock together and act like total pricks.
