DETTY29 Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 If we do go down the 'more crests' routes, hopefully they are miles better than the current ones, and the current one'sare redesigned and updates. Within whatever restrictions we have. Think I'd still prefer all maroon seats, with a lot of the grey steel work on the inside of the stands painted maroon too. Then use some form of modern lighting being used for backgrounds etc when required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucille's Thirsty Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 I wonder what they've got in mind for the seats - maroon with pixelated badges or maybe TYNECASTLE PARK spelled out in white? Edit Preferably nothing like this.. I would love to see all the seats around the ground replaced with new maroon ones and kept like that I've always liked the plain look 20,000 maroon seats would look marvellous maybe some sort of sponsor on the main stand but I'm afraid to say those pixalted badges on the other three stands make the seats a little cheap and gimmicky. Can't wait to see all of our ground tarted up like a babe with hopefully the football on the pitch just as good the whole football side needs a kick in the backside. HHGH.

Mr Sifter Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 (edited) Just taken these. They show that although there's been no real progress on the pitchside side of the frame, they've obviously been building out the way towards McLeod Street... Never really considered in what way exactly they'd put the frame up. Suppose I thought they'd build right along the pitch side first, then out towards McLeod Street. Obviously that's not the case though... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited April 21, 2017 by Mr Sifter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambos are go! Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Drove past today. Not an expert but it looks like they have completed the infrastructure skeleton for a section and it will be onto starting the next section from the foundations. Looks like there will be 5 or 6 sections. Might be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Bubblebeard Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Just realised that I log onto this thread every two or three days, love seeing the picture updates of the progress but haven't once thanked the contributors so thanks Mr Sifter, Farin and the others! A grown man shouldn't spend so much time looking at pictures of a building site that has changed ever so slightly since two days prior, especially when I see it in the flesh every couple of weeks, but it is addictive!

All we need to do is refurbish the seats in the Roseburn then to protect the seats from the sun again fit 5 or 10 advertising sheet just like the one that is there that separates the away fans from the home fans. Of course the advertisers would pay for them and it would be great for them and Hearts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Sifter Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 (edited) Still convinced we've replaced broken seats with old seats we've had lying about, probably stacked up under the Roseburn or something. I mean, if the discolouration was down to bleaching from the sun, it would affect every seat. But it hasn't. There are intermittent crappy seats dotted all over that stand, why would one seat bleach whilst the one next to it remain fine? I think we've been canny in the past and billed other clubs for new seats whilst stickin auld battered efforts in as replacements. Like other have said, I'd like to see us kit out that stand with new 'anti bleach' seats, and if they're damaged, bill the offending club and replace them with more brand new 'anti bleach' seats. Anyway...why haven't we heard more aboot these screens we were promised. That was the part of the development that excites me the most ffs!!

Looks like there will be 5 or 6 sections. Might be wrong. That makes sense I suppose. Complete sections 1,2,5 and 6, leaving a big gap to get machinery/debris in and out of the main stand demolition before then completing sections 3 and 4. Just an idea...could be wrong tho (again).

AllyjamboDerbyshire Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 At first look at Kila's timeline, I thought not much has been done today, then realised there's actually quite a lot been done to what will be behind the stand.

Jamborello Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Whilst I'm sure things have moved on in terms of bleach resistant seats, I was at the stadium of light last season and most of their Red seats seemed to have been bleached quite badly. I agree that the Roseburn does need the seats doing though, as it will look even worse when the new stand is finished. Thanks again for the pictures Sifter & Kila.

jamboinglasgow Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Anyway...why haven't we heard more aboot these screens we were promised. That was the part of the development that excites me the most ffs!! I agree. I remember Ann saying at the consulation meeting that they expected it to be up in 11 months. That would have been now. I am sure someone has said around the time the pitch was changed that because they had to pay for a new pitch early (and its not big change to the pitch yet) that it has pushed the screens back to a later date as they have to wait for the money. Great photos and you have my thanks for doing that. Nothing better then coming home from work and seeing the change each day. I have been keeping all the photos people put up so there is a continous record of the work. Its great to see the change when you compare week to week and even a different stages, But I was looking at your photos today and comparing it with one from the 13th of April. And I was thinking the new structure is already huge with all the extended work back. Then the one from the 13th was taken from a distance so you got almost the whole of the current main stand, and suddenly hit me that what has been completed so far. There are on the top level of the main stand, 14 metal boards (which presumely were where windows used to be but are now block up.) Now the new main stand wont be quite as long as the main stand. Now the structure is only currently over 4 of them. So if it is looking huge already and thats not even a third of it done, imagine how huge it will look when completed. Also great to see the top floor coming through as well, and the side on view shows how big the area under the stands for all levels will be.
