Location: Nottingham, England Client: Northern Light Digital Client: Nottingham Forest Football Club is located at the city ground just outside Nottingham city centre and adjacent to the River Trent. The ground has four stands and a capacity of 34,445 people. When the football club decided to upgrade the public address and music systems in the Brian Clough Stand it called on the services of technical installation experts, Northern Light Digital Systems. Northern Light Digital undertook a site survey and, working in conjunction with audio system experts CIE-Group, recommended three separate systems for the stand to serve the two corporate bars, the dining room and the hospitality boxes. CIE-Group supplied all the products and Northern Light Digital handled the installation. At the heart of the system is an Inter-M rack system with a PX8000 audio matrix. This provides up to eight input signals which can be sent to eight separate outputs which feed into the three separate systems in the stand. The system in the two corporate bars allows different types of music to be played or TV audio with a local programme selection panel in each one. Each bar also has an induction loop for the hard of hearing. Another output feed is to the 30 hospitality boxes to enable people to listen to live match commentary from the box so that they feel part of the crowd without actually going out to their external seats.

Download date: 27. Sep. 2021 A Golden Silence? Acts of Remembrance and Commemoration at UK Football Games Abstract This paper reviews the use of minute’s silences and applause at football (soccer) games in the UK, considering why acts of remembrance take place and for whom. Examining the variation in commemoration the paper explores the extent to which these acts serve as liminal events to reinforce or diminish football fans’ sense of (‘fictive’) kinship and cohesion. Uncertainty about how to conduct them, and their purpose, is complicated by the way in which they are now used for a wide variety of people, regardless of their affiliation to a club, alongside their organisation and spontaneity.

  • Brian Clough and Peter Taylor
    Made in Derby 2018 Profile Brian Clough and Peter Taylor Brian Clough and Peter Taylor. Two names that will always be associated with Derby County. They met as young players – Brian a centre-forward and Peter a goalkeeper – at Middlesbrough FC, where they played together for six years. With a shared passion for the beautiful game they formed a friendship that would take them to the very top of English and European football. They first joined forces as managers at Hartlepool United but it was at Derby County where the dynamic duo, as they were known, had their first taste of the big time. Many of Derby's greatest names were signed in the Clough-Taylor era: Roy McFarland, John O'Hare, Alan Hinton, John McGovern, Willie Carlin, Dave Mackay, Colin Todd and Archie Gemmill to name a few. The two managers and their magnificent team took the Rams to the very top, winning the Division One Championship in 1972 and reaching the European Cup semi-finals. The pair controversially resigned early in the 1973-74 season and the partnership broke up briefly, only be reunited at Nottingham Forest in 1976 where they won many accolades, including two European Cups. But it was at Derby County where the partnership first flourished and Taylor’s daughter, Wendy Dickinson, in a biography of her father, said: “When dad and Brian arrived at the Baseball Ground in May, 1967 it was as if Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid had ridden into town, all guns blazing. These two bright young upstarts were a breath of fresh air at a club that was stuck in the past.” She said her dad was “passionate” about managing Derby and added: “My mum remembers driving down to Derby for the first time and dad said, ‘I wonder what the supporters are like?’ He later said he thought they were the best in the country.” The success of that Derby County team affected everyone in the town and amazing results week after week sent people to work on a Monday morning with a spring in their step.

  • The Best Football Films You Have Probably Never Seen by Stuart Fuller
    The best football films you have probably never seen by Stuart Fuller Films about football have never been that well received by critics for a number of reasons. We’ve all seen Escape to Victory and marvelled at the footballing skill of Sylvester Stallone and the acting ability of Bobby Moore (or was it the other way round?) or the unlikely storylines of the FIFA- approved Goal trilogy, cringe worthy Sheffield United epic, When Saturday Comes. But there are some decent football-related films out there, especially when they recreate actual events. The five below are our top picks where semi-unbelievable story lines, bad acting and woefully choreographed footballing action is left on the cutting room floor. The Miracle of Bern (2003) One of the biggest shocks in World Cup history is now known as ‘the miracle of Bern’ – the name for West Germany’s triumph in the 1954 finals, when Sepp Herberger’s unfancied side beat Hungary’s ‘magic Magyars’ of Puskas and co. Such was the impact of the victory on national consciousness that it’s often seen as a herald of Germany’s economic and political recovery after the war. The tournament also gave us one of the most famous footballing quotes when Herberger was asked whether his side could recover from an earlier heavy defeat to Hungary to beat them in the final. His response was “The ball is round. The game lasts ninety minutes. This much is fact. Everything else is theory.” Director Sönke Wortmann tells the story through the eyes of 11-year-old Matthias, boot polisher to local footballer Helmut Rahn (who would go on to score the winning goal in 1954).
