All roads lead to Gorgie Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I noticed when I was out earlier that there were no floodlights on at Tynecastle tonight so that suggests that all the pitch side work is complete and anything required is outside or in the concourse.

Remember the seethe on here when, for example, Motherwell's pitch was sodden and they couldn't play? If we do not get this fixture played, and we should, then that is the direction of travel we are going down. If it can’t be played on Sunday it will be postponed end of.Then Ann Budge will be burned at the stake,the new stand will be condemned ,foh will be banned and Scottish football will disappear up the weegie ass.

Most of the hardcore at the Roseburn end is down-won't take long tomorrow but no fencing up? They are using heras fencing (the temp stuff that sits in the bricks with the round holes), plus extra stewards. Given that the plaza is open they will probably just move the stuff that was around that, to the Roseburn end.

colinmaroon Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Dear dribbling BBC Sports reporter Currie, here is a lesson in reporting: The stand did not "fail" a test certificate. If you could have bothered your Licence Paid for Bahoochie and not just taken your report from the Daily Rag, you would have been given the correct situation. As Ann Budge said, " We have been meeting regularly with the CEC officials to anticipate potential problems and ensure, as far as possible, that there are no last minute surprises." In other words the CEC officials have been monitoring progress and pointing out what needs to be done for the go ahead. That is not at all a question of "testing" and "failing", although "failing" is a word you must be very familiar with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
