been here before Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 The front of the stand is where you watch a football match , surely , or is that the back ? "Lol" So everyone who goes in will be going in the back. Im not understanding the relevance of your opera house either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kila Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Fist of all I think it's an incredible achievement to have reached the point where we can build such a thing.. Credit to all involved.. And it's no reflection on Thomaso's work or the work of his company, but I do think some of the architectural decision s around the glass are a bit strange Image dark tinted glass with maroon and white highlights around the fringes without the grey panels.. Would have looked sensational, especially with the backlit Tynecastle Park and badge on top of it..would have looked cool.. Yes I know there were lighting considerations also It's really not important in the grans scheme of things but again.. It's doesn't look as good as it could have in my I'll Informed opinion Yeah I think maroon instead of neutral/grey glass for the facade would've been better too. The neutral/grey does allow for reflections, so it looks nice from the side, but in reality you only see that view from the street at the Roseburn end. Still, it's the inside that matters. High hopes the suites will be fantastic and the single tier will complete the look of Tynecastle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxy Hearts Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Is this the most recent impression? If so, it's still described as a 'glass wall' but compared to the original artist's impression (which looks quite spectacular) that no longer seems to be the case. It's more like two rows of office windows with some cladding in between? http://seasontickets.heartsfc.co.uk/ Show me yours ya fandan.

maroonlegions Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 It might change when the badge and the lettering go on but those who said it looks like the Co-op at Tollcross, Chesser Hpuse or the demolished govt buildings by St James arent too far wrong. Its a bit ugly. You are never a Hearts fan, not because of your opinion on the new stand but because of the way you worded that piece of utter shite. First class trolling too. Compared to the Hibs stand our new stand is a stand out,its more than a stand to, but you knew that too as well. FTH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alicante jambo Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 My old man isn't too great atm. Anyway nipped in to see him this morning and showed him the time-lapse video from Facebook. He was stunned. He went on to say I have to make it to just see one game from there!! He also said he'd never thought he'd see something that getting built in his day!! There's a lot of moaning and some of it is maybe justified but we sometimes need to take a step back and actually appreciate where we were and how far we've come HHGH Mate hope youre dad gets well.Sure all the jambos feel the same.

Mellor Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Is that a threat half time meet up to discuss your incompatibility to discern what stand below is superior quality. Seriously though. This. Compared to this,. No need to discuss my FACTS on the utter shite contained in that post you made on our new stand then. Rather have a pie and bovril at half time sweetie. Not really a valid comparison. That's the back of the away end at Easter Road. The back of the away end at Tynecastle is little more than functional either.

I will however hold judgment on it until it's complete because, as we all know, people's views can change greatly. Looking positive though.

Looking positive though. Yeah, I agree. I have stated before that I'm not keen on the striped effect that you get looking straight on to the facade, however, it's a relatively minor thing and I may have gone a bit too far by pulling Thomaso's plonker on it. I love the way it looks side on though, it almost disappears in to the background as the reflected tenements make it look transparent. I really like the red and maroon panels too, they break up the grey quite a lot face on. Overall it will look pretty damn spectacular when finished, I am quite certain of that.
