Milan maxi screen: club ready, authorizations are awaited

Big screen yes, but big screen where? In these hours, technical and operational meetings take place between the institutions in order to organize the management of the last ninety minutes of the championship for the Rossoneri fans who will not be in Reggio Emilia. That is the overwhelming majority, since the exodus to Mapei will be around 18,000 people.

Public order

–

In Milan there will be tens and tens of thousands more ready to cheer and possibly celebrate. In these cases, the setting up of a large screen in the city serves – also – to manage public order in a more orderly manner, since a large part of the Rossoneri mass would be in one place, which in any case will be at an adequate distance of safety from San Siro. Where at the same time – 6 pm – Inter-Sampdoria is scheduled. Obviously, the watchword is to avoid contact between the two supporters. Already yesterday Mayor Sala had opened the hypothesis on the big screen: “Net of the material impossibility of using Piazza Duomo, still occupied by the structures of the Radio Italia concert the night before – explained the Milanese mayor on his social pages -, I I spoke to the president of Milan, Paolo Scaroni, and I pointed out that on the Municipality and Police Headquarters side there is no veto for the club to install a screen in another area of ​​the city to watch the game. Obviously there will be appropriate assessments with particular attention to issues relating to public order, but this does not mean that we are more than ready to listen and accept the proposal that will be made to us “.

Two days after the match

–

Today the go-ahead has also arrived from the Region: “The expectation is growing for the championship sprint – the governor Attilio Fontana wrote on social media -. I learned that Milan are looking for a place in Milan to broadcast the match against Sassuolo. As president of the Lombards I make Piazza Città di Lombardia available (3,800 square meters, it is the largest covered square in Europe, ed), if the company and the competent institutions deem it adequate for the projection “. As for Milan, the club says it is ready to go to the operational phase right away. The budget has been allocated, the structure is ready and now in via Aldo Rossi they are waiting to find out from political institutions and law enforcement the place appointed to accommodate the large screen (in recent days there was also talk of the Civic Arena and the square Duca d’Aosta) and the authorizations on the subject of public order. Being only two days before the game, these are decisions that will obviously have to come quickly.
