Francis Albert Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 (edited) Architects like to create attractive images, models and plans. They need watching. No building ever looks as good as the architect's/artist's impression. It is the First Law of Architecture. Nevertheless I think the finished article will look very good. And from inside the ground, where it really matters, magnificent. Edited October 7, 2017 by Francis Albert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacDonald Jardine Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 The other three stands look too solid to ever become a problem so on that basis I doubt we'll have issues with it in our lifetime Sent from my F5121 using Tapatalk You are kidding.

MacDonald Jardine Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 We lost to the Hobbits when the wheatfield opened 1-0 might have been the end of the 22 in a row match i thinkI don't think it was.

Bazzas right boot Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 (edited) The Christmas card is a nice picture, but imagine how ostentatious those letters would look from street level, if they were real. I'm sure that the real finished article will look fine when viewed in context with the completed stand and plaza. Yip, you couldn't read it unless your were flying a plane.... Does the job for the card, as it's from above, small signage- too small for the card and be hard to read. Was going to say that, quite obvious. Why do all retail units have Thier name quite small in context to the building? It's so you can read it when standing outside. Common sense.

stuart500 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I would have preferred the top line to say "Heart of Midlothian Football Club" then the badge below, and "Tynecastle Park" underneath.

3fingersreid Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 If -and I?m still confident it will be- it?s not ready for 5th November and perhaps for a few weeks after that , would the club consider freezing the price again for another year before introducing the gradual price increase ? I know getting the stand paid for and keeping the ST holders happy is a hell of a balancing act but I?m just wondering what the general view is ?

1971fozzy Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 This is official artists impression and what the final stand will look like. Anything else is outdated or uses a bit of creative licence (ie the Christmas card). The other one I posted is just the current stand with the text and badge pasted over in exactly the place it will be. Your Hibs.

That?s what the size of the lettering and badge will be. All facts. What are you taking exception to? Thomaso has agreed with all of my points. Is he hibs too?

Thomaso Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 That?s a proper mock-up. Wonder if the creator could do it with the full lettering in the top space? Probably not out of fear of being hibs. I didn?t even criticise the stand. On the contrary. Purely showed the actual size of the lettering off the back of the Christmas card confusion to clear it all up. More critical of the marketing of the stand than the stand itself. As I am.

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Tesco (ironically) seem to be allowed signage at least twice the size of ours - this is their branch in Sighthill... Different rules for some? Likely to be a closer to the city centre rule. Wasn't there a Starbucks at Palmerston Place where they couldn't put their normal signage on the exterior so it was nearly impossible to tell it was a coffee shop. It is now closed probably due to lack of customers being aware it was there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if (heaven forbid) Tynecastle had made way for a McLeod Street Tesco, I'm pretty sure they would have had their normal sized signage.
