BigC Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 It says that the old stand will be demolished in autumn 2008.... Unlikely now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven100 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Can't see the demolishing of the new stand starting until Tynecastle High School is well on the way to being completed. Summer 2009 more realistic for demolishing, hopefully completed 2011 sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hearts of Vladland Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Funny you brought that you the target date for it to be approved is today. http://citydev-portal.edinburgh.gov.uk/publicaccess/tdc/DcApplication/application_detailview.aspx?caseno=JUU5NIEWR0000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iaing Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Anyone able to remind me what these are? When can we expect the initial decision? I said months ago that this was likely to be a non starter, for the past two seasons the old stand was due to be demolished at the season end, never happened. Think we are all being spoon fed crap and lies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jam Tarts 1874 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 How do you expect Hearts to demolish the old stand when we still don't have planning permission? Hearts have said that they expect a decision by September and the old stand to remain in place until Summer 2009. If you have a problem with the timeline make your feelings known to Edinburgh City Council! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NASA take less time to get a module on a mission to Mars to land than it takes Hearts to get permission to build a new stand. I wouldn't hold your breath, white elephant, never happen.

Rawrrrrrrr Posted June 8, 2008 Author Share Posted June 8, 2008 Are there any statutory timescales for the council to issue a decision? I have a gut feeling it wont happen but am interested as to when the club will get an "initial" decision. It came up in my mind as I saw last week, the council had screwed up with spartans ground, they had basically taken the profits from that sale to use for the commy and then they turned down the decision and reduced there profit and thus created a bigger hole in their budget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jambomickey Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 remember one of the reasons romanov gave for firing anderton was because he wasn,t moving along with new stand application quick enough. thats nearly 3 years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PresidentRomanov Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 If I were Mr Romanov, I would scrap any plans to rebuild the stand. The "supporters" have proved, not only do they not deserve it, It's also not required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawrrrrrrr Posted June 8, 2008 Author Share Posted June 8, 2008 Are you sure Jambo38?? As far as I am aware Anderton was never involved in the stand beyond possible intermediary stage as to the best option forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but if the vocal glory hunters keep going on about the lack of a new stand/manager etc it gives them another excuse not to attend games or buy a season ticket.

PresidentRomanov Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 what? By filling it every week? Unfortunately, winning every week isn't guaranteed, so I can't see that happening. Why would a club, with 9000 season ticket holders, and a stadium with a capacity of 17,500, build a bigger ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't have to be bigger but we definitely need a new one. If VR wants to break another promise then let him crack on. In the grand scheme of things another lie is not going to make much difference.

Therapist Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Why would a club, with 9000 season ticket holders, and a stadium with a capacity of 17,500, build a bigger ground Correct PB. Hearts could undoubtedly fill a bigger stadium but in my opinion it would be folly to build it at the moment. Without a guarantee that we'd win games/trophies, it's highly unlikely the johnny-come-latelies would show up. Far better we stick with the current capacity. If we do go on a winning season(s), it'll be the johnny-come-latelies that suffer, not the true fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we though Dazo? I'm sure the stand could be brought up to standard (Health and Safety wise) without having to pull it down. It would probably cost a lot, But it could be done.

Rawrrrrrrr Posted June 8, 2008 Author Share Posted June 8, 2008 If you look on the planning website there is a letter from the fire brigade which states they do regular audits and also a recent one states they had concerns but are happy with what the club is doing with them Doesnt sound like they are about to pull the safety certificate Whilst we all know the stadium is old and has issues Im sure it could maintain regular usage for years to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would probably cost a lot, But it could be done. You are probably right JF not sure how cost effective it would be though. Not sure how much sense it would make to have to spend money on a old stand every season. Obviously a lot cheaper than a new stand we also have to take into account we can't play european games there. I assume this is something the new stand would address ?
