Even if it does it will need reliability tested. Also the turnstiles will be linked somehow I’d imagine or there would be nothing to stop people scanning their tickets and passing them back to someone to use at a different gate so there will (should) Ben data links in place. You are talking about a tried and trusted entry system used worldwide not a computer system going into taxi's which happened a number of years ago.

Looking at that photo I’d imagine all the seats will be fitted by Friday. Not sure about the inside being near completion to allow for a match to proceed as I’ve not seen any of the most recent ones. Maybe Obua can take some instead of dropping bombs in his latest quote. Edited October 22, 2017 by Dannie Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JALBO Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 2 hours ago, Footballfirst said: There are only 9 rows of seats installed in each of the front sections, so far, instead of the 10 expected from the plans. The configuration of the seats around the tunnel and dug outs also mean that some seats have been lost from the total capacity when compared to the original plans. I was thinking that the seats in row 10 perhaps can't be fitted until the safety hand rail at the front of the concourse is bolted on. Just a guess though.

Reading between the lines of what you have said, the court case must be related to the construction, so possibly an invoice not paid for services delivered/not delivered or a breach of contract. There was a thread last week about a Celtic blogger, Paul Brennan who claimed that the bill related to the "£80k" fraud still hadn't been settled. Connected?

Francis Albert Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 2 hours ago, Gambo said: Heard yesterday that plans are in place for Murrayfield all the way up to the Celtic game. This person did not say that meant we would need Murrayfield just that contingency plans have been put in place up until that game should Murrayfield be needed. They thought the Killie game was a certainty. I just hope that if there is to be a further delay that we give ourselves enough time to have it finished/ready even if that means not moving until January or home derby. Also said that a delegation from SFA will be in attendance next week to see what Murrayfield has to offer with the lease of Hampden up in a couple of years. Uefa are of course corrupt shitbags but at least they are neutral on this issue. When the sfa appiled for the euro nations finals uefa said their was only one stadium acceptable for staging the final and it wasn't in glasgow.

I wasn't particularly fussed if the new stand had them or not TBH, and I can understand why some folk aren't big fans of them, but I like them, and on balance, I think it probably makes more sense for all four stands to have them than just three.

CL was saying today that back when he was manager first time around, he largely had to use Edinburgh as a place to live as the main draw for potential signings, but that these days, with the facilities at Riccarton, the club was much easier to sell, and that the new stand would only strengthen the appeal of the club.

FarmerTweedy Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 5 hours ago, Tazio said: Everyone seems to have missed one of the most important thing in the statement this week. It's all down to the turnstiles at the end of the day. You can have all the seats and toilets ready to go and the safety certificate in place but if the turnstile operating system and software isn't working there is no way they can open the stand. And as anyone who has had any dealings with IT systems can tell you these things need time and testing to clear any potential glitches. Imagine the scenes if the system crashed with thousands trying to get into the stand for the match. The press would have a field day. As an IT professional with over 20 years experience, I can confidently state that if there are any problems, they'll just have to switch the turnstiles off and on again!
