But can't remember if it was beamed back. Yes. We had to sit in the East End to watch it. A few decent sized Cinema screens were placed in front of the first row of seats. Black curtains were in-between the screens so that we could see a better picture from the projectors at the back of the stand. There was a technical issue as there was no audio for several minutes. IIRC, the commentary was provided by Stato from the original Fantasy Football League TV show. There was also a beam back of the Liverpool game which was shown at the Colsunall. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But can't remember if it was beamed back. I guess we must have won somewhere along the line but personally i can't remember any. I was at the Colston Hall for the Liverpool game as I had done my back in and couldn't go, but don't count that as it wasn't Ashton Gate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
