davemclaren Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Spend any nights there, Dave? I have only once had 'issues' with the police at a game and that was at Aberdeen mid eighties. A hearts fan had been huckled out for no reason imo and I was almost huckled out as well for offering my opinion on the matter to a constable.

davemclaren Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Soon to be no more. Another old view of Tynie . The Tree(s) in all her glory. [emoji1] I always thought it was funny that my kids ( when very young ) thought the tree grew out of the stand roof. Then I took a mate and he thought that as well.

Hackney Hearts Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Tynecastle 1948 OS Map.png The attached OS map from 1948 shows that the area now occupied by the offices and the associated car park was a tennis court at that time! Interesting, thanks. Still can't find any photos taken from McLeod Street during the 50 years after the stand was built. Bit odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamboinglasgow Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 (edited) The club are also looking beyond the stadium to generate further revenues. All very exciting indeed. Interesting, wonder what that will be. I always wondered if a club had a property portfolio, could rent be a significant earner? And if the club had issues that need money you could sell some. Though just to check, you do mean away from Tynecastle and not meaning beyond the money raised for games.

Jambo dans les Pyrenees Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 That's the one. Think we bought three programmes at the inflated price of one pound each was it? Tidy wee profit was probably made. I wonder if the person that won the house that night still live sin the. place; wonder what it's valued at now.

luckydug Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I have a vague recollection that the house turned out to be only free for a year? Don't think so. In fact was there not a second prize of a car ? Pretty sure the media would have been all over it if Wallace had been misleading the public to sell programmes. I bought my programme in Asda I missed by 5 numbers the person who won must have bought their ticket just before me in Asda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a miller home but can't recall where it was and the car I'm sure was provided by Alexanders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
