Can we watch the game on the great screens you have on the field?

Otherwise this year would be a hit and run in the morning only for me.........

I believe that somewhere elese on this forum it was already stated that there will be no big screen for the match. But if you realy want to see that match why don't you come to gilze on friday so you can stay at home for the match.

To everyone that wants to see that football: You should be able to watch the whole match after the show has finished at the internet via nos.nl. :idea: (If KLu can order the commentary NOT to tell any results or standings, would be much appreciated for those that might look afterwards, the other people around might not be interested at all, else they shouldn't be at EHGR, wouldn't they?).

Just curious why Holland always has to play at the showdays, BTW.

Met de huidige participantslist en het voetbal denk ik dat de RAF niet de enige is die zaterdags afwezig is ;-). In de praktijk denk ik namelijk dat onder de bezoekers van de Luchtmachtdagen ook veel voetballiefhebbers zullen zijn. Was misschien beter om dit jaar de Luchtmachtdagen te canx.

Ik denk dat het effect op zaterdag wel degelijk groot zal zijn. De wedstrijd wordt namelijk al aan het begin van de middag gespeeld. Aangezien de meeste mensen die aanwezig zijn dagjesmensen zijn (en er gemiddeld 1/3 vande bevolking naar de wedstrijden zal kijken) Denk ik dat er ztaerdag minimaal 30.000 mensen minder zullen zijn. Of deze allemaal vrijdags komen valt denk ik nog te bezien. Toen de open dagen op Leeuwarden werden gehouden, gingen mensen al om 15:00 uur weg voor een wedstrijd van 20:00 uur.

Ik was van plan om zowel vrijdag als zaterdag te gaan. Zaterdag neem ik voor het eerts mijn zoontje mee,
dus voor mij persoonlijk vind ik het niet zo erg dat er zaterdag wat minder mensen komen :mrgreen:

Ik ben zelf ook een groot ORANJE supporter, maar ik laat de wedstrijd toch aan mij voorbij gaan.Tenzij
de weergoden roet in het eten gooien.....En mischien wordt er nog iets geregeld... :lol:

Kwestie van je eigen keuze maken denk ik. Ik ga zowieso op vrijdag en ben geen voetbalfan, dus het maakt mij niets uit. Ben je wel voetbalfan, dan zul je een keuze moeten maken: Luchtmacht of TV.
Als organisatoren van grote evenementen altijd rekening moeten gaan houden met grote sportevenementen, dan kunnen ze wel ophouden met het organiseren hiervan. Er is tegenwoordig altijd wel wat te doen. Mijn mening is dat de bezoeker zelf met kiezen wat hij of zijn het belangrijkste vind.
En als ze op Gilze de wedstrijd op grote schermen gaan vertonen, dan lijdt dat mijns inziens alleen maar af van de demo's e.d.; dan ben je als organisator toch je eigen glaasjes aan het ingooien..... :roll:

Ik denk alleen dat de mensen op dit forum ook niet het probleem zullen zijn. De Luchtmacht opendagen worden echter niet georiganiseerd voor ons, maar voor de gewone burger die de keuze: luchtmacht opendagen vs Nederlands elftal waarbij velen voor het Nederlands Elftal zullen kiezen.

Personally I don't really care, but Waddington got the same question (albeit for a different date) and they have the following response on their website:

World Cup Quarter Finals - 13 April 2010
For those of you who wonder whether you will be able to watch the World Cup Quarter Finals on Air Show Saturday FEAR NOT. We will have a large screen TV dedicated to showing the whole of the match. Not only that, but there will be a food court and bar situated very close by. All you need to do is bring a seat and make yourself comfortable.



So, there are different approaches possible to the difficult question "what to watch: football or airshow or both?" :fadein:

personally i don't care about the soccer match... and i am glad about the desision about not showing it on the airshow itself. Thank god finally a day without SOCCER... I am a bit fed up with this idiotic business...

If you want to see the soccer match, Go and watch it (more place for the realy aviation and airshow enthousiast to get their kicks)... If you are there and you bump into me... i'll buy you a beer (but then you have to find me first.. and NO i don't give any hints on my whereabouts ;) )

Grtz,
