JamboAl1965 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Passed by tonight on the way back to Fife after the CERF at Meggetland. The pictures, good as they are, don't do it justice. It already looks magnificent and is going to be an incredible asset on completion. Form and on field performance during the 40 years I've followed hearts has always been variable, but off the park I don't think we've every been in a better position and reinforces what an incredible contribution we've made as fans over the last 4 years. Cant wait to be sat in Section T next year, hope its a good one but I'm more than wiling to be patient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucille's Thirsty Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Question? The glass facade on the original pictures showed a Hearts badge in the glass is that something we're keeping I hope so the badge with a "Heart of Midlothian" above and a "Tynecastle Park" beneath.

Can you comment on if there is any special coating on the outside of the panes to help self cleaning? The reflections will look even better when the chrome caps are removed.

jamboozy Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Always proud of our club, but recently my shirt buttons have felt like they are going to pop of my chest. I'm going to miss the Scaberdeen game coz the wife booked a cruise for us. (this led to a major huff by me) and it's maybe just as well as I would probably be fit to burst with pride and have been known to shed a tear at times like these, my sons wedding being one such occasion. Well done Hearts, HHGH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you heard anything with regards to upgrading the other stands? Is this still happening and if so, when will this start? If memory serves me right thomaso is only invovlved in the glass curtain of the main stand so I don't think he will have much detail on the rest of the stadium. I am sure a lot of people were asking him questions about the new stand in general and he wasn't privy to the information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye i'd expect any design to be placed on after the glass has been installed, and I also think if we're putting a badge on then it has to be as big as we can get it.

John Findlay Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Time will tell, but I think the "recent event" you are referring to will find that that building did not meet fire safety building regs. But hey ho slag if you must no matter how irrelevant. That's why there have bben calls for the lat 10-15 years for building regulations to be updated/tightened. Not slagging. Jus a concensus of opinion they are no longer fit for purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corryjambo Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Think he could be ginger? Think he could be ginger with anger issues? Or did his company not get the contract for the curtain wall? Or was he once fired by Thomaso? Whatever the reason he is making a complete prat of himself on this thread and really needs to step away from his keyboard before he implodes with anger. I really can't believe that someone would get themselves in such a frenzy about a glass curtain wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
