redm Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 The stand is looking better and better all the time. Highlights of the last few days include the badge going up and the sight of the lower seating being so close to the pitch. I. Can’t. Wait. This would be exciting in any circumstances but given where we are and where we’ve recently been, it feels so special to see all of this happening. What a glorious statement of intent.

But don't you want to know who signed off the silicone gap being 4mm instead of the standard 3mm around the urinal in the gents toilet?

Adding in a timescale that from the off was hugely challenging but something that the club went after and the comparison to building your house becomes a shite analogy. More than acceptable is maybe the wrong words perhaps understandable and tolerable are more apt. I’m going to be a be a builder in my next life ...... over promise and under deliver!! loads of money!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, we’ve probably still got these debates to come. Imagine how much work goes into snagging with a new build house then times it by about a zillion for all the wee things that could end up wrong or slightly wonky in a whole stand? That’s at least another 100 pages worth of posts right there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on this forum at times and wonder if I'm the only Hearts fan on at the time, or the only one who's not fully qualified in quantity surveying, building construction, graphic design, electrical engineering, architecture blah de blah. You forgot to mention project management and glass curtain wall design. Thankfully, I've nearly completed a new shower enclosure in the house so feel extremely well qualified in all matters related to our new main stand (especially since it's over budget and behind schedule).

communist Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I'm with the sane, it'll be ready when it's ready, I'm sure the people involved are doing their utmost to hit the targets but its realistic to think that's not always possible. What I know is we have a cracking new stand to look forward to and if we need to generate some more income off the back off one or two games at Murrayfield while that happens then so be it.
