kila Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Feel for Tottenham a little in comparison to how the SPFL dealt with Hearts new stand timings. Spurs weren't allowed to change the pitch dimensions of Wembley to match that of a narrower White Hart Lane. We got to make Murrayfield narrower to match Tynecastle though couldn't change the length due to the goalpost holes. Sounds like Spurs won't be allowed to play just a few games at Wembley next season before moving into their new ground if it isn't ready in time. So all away at the start or they will be at Wembley for their first round of fixtures. I think the SPFL and clubs were really accommodating to Hearts in comparison. Though might have been a different story had we been title challengers to Celtic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalterWhite Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Love to see some pics of inside the stand changing rooms tunnel entrance etc. Are they getting worked on now or will it be at the end of the season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm_hmfc Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Quick question over the main stand, I’m back home for the Aberdeen game and fancy sitting in the main stand but the only place where 4 seats are available is section N right at the end next to the wall.. are these seats restricted view ?

Pennywise Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Had few whisky's. Cup game tomorrow. Been watching the original 5-1 humping. Levien in charge. I'd take a Valois over a DeVries right now BTW. One noticeable difference is the Auld Stand. As beautiful as it was, I'm glad its gone. Let's bring the trophy home lads.

I suppose there is no great rush now and if money is tight we are better doing it a little bit at a time. I agree with Ann the club shop should be the priority as we are losing money by not having it open right up to kick off and straight after full time.

Francis Albert Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I assume FoH as one of the main funders have had an update on the progress (or lack of it) on completion of the stand.

We may have to wait another couple of months for FOH to confirm that the £3m funding target has been reached and the funds will thereafter be directed at repaying the Bidco loan.

Bazzas right boot Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 The hand rails are very rusty and the numbers are falling of the seats. Not massive but if you get 4/5 chairs in row without numbers, could be fights or a game of musical chairs. The rust looks shite, can't think they'll last too long either if rusty after 4 months.

Perth to Paisley Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 I am a Wheatfield resident but walked through the new stand today for a look ...looked a a lot more painting since my last saunter. i also used the hand dryer in the toilet to defrost my hands ... very welcome.

I had always thought the wheatfield undercroft should be the home of a supporters club/bar but having seen the space available in the former Gerards yard I think this space would be ideal for it.
