Serge Pizzorno Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 My only worry about this is, as someone who was largely apart of the first group, is that literally once a minority sing ‘they’ songs it all goes tits up. Good luck to you all but hope the club and yourselfs make sure any idiots who feel the need get thrown out on their arse immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nookie Bear Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I expect the odd naughty song will be heard and this place will be all over it. But it’s up to the guys to push on and come up with decent alternative songs and the rest of the crowd to follow their lead. We cant have the whole thing hanging on some sort of “one strike and your out” policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baird, King and Michael Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I don't think anybody would have a problem with "naughty" songs....its illegal, sectarian or racist songs that are the problem. Funnily enough I've just moved my season ticket out of that section into the main stand. I wish this thing all the very best...I don't mind a drum, don't mind flag displays and all that...I think it could be fantastic for the atmosphere at Tynecastle.

I've not read everything that has been added since I last visited this thread, but did notice your post above saying you reckon it will all start in the lower section of the Gorgie Stand. I'm actually a little bit surprised by that, as I thought the club may have learned from a few of the problems with the location of the section which was previously in the lower section of the Roseburn, nearest the Wheatfield. A lot of people sitting behind them were disappointed that often their view of the game was interrupted by a combination of the section standing up, waving flags etc. If you have the chance it may be worth asking the club if they cannot locate what you are planning in the back rows of the Gorgie Stand, that way there will be no one behind the section who might raise the same concerns.

At the moment the club are unsure if they are actually going to get a certificate for the new main stand because a number of objections have already been raised about people standing in it. It seems at the moment that as we are the only club without the relevant certificate needed those that issue said certificates may be planning on using Tynecastle as a guinea pig for future issue/renewal of such certificates. Be a pity to see the new main stand reach full completion and then HMFC to then discover it cannot be used as it doesn't have the correct certificate.

JamboJen Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Good to hear that it went well with the club. Z lower will hopefully work well. Assuming the group get the whole lower section they'll not block anyone's view in the upper section. I'd happily move over from V to Z for it, it's a shame if people feel they're going to be "forced out" of Z but that's going to happen anywhere. At least the lower corners of the Gorgie are probably the least desirable sections based on general sales for the Hibs cup game for example.

I must have missed it, probably because I never really thought it would affect me. Kinda highlights the difficulties that the SSO will face though. If we can’t get people to behave for a couple of weeks until we get a safety certificate, then can we really expect these lads to fare any better when it comes to trying to control what their membership do.

People begin to hate it when its just being blindly battered for 90mins needlessly. If its used at the right times to "drum up" (ill get my coat) a bit of atmosphere and when its already bouncing then it can be very useful. Also getting a bit noise when we complete a good attack, win a corner etc etc when were applying some pressure to opposition just to get a few roars from the crowd to spur the players on. those are the moments for it in my opinion.

I don't mean they have to sing off a song sheet singing the songs in a set order. You make it sound like a guy dressed like the 'Men in Black' will be in their section giving out a yes or a no There has to be some dialogue between the club and the new singing section as to what they are going to sing. If it is an official singing section then they are representing the club. It can't be that hard laying out ground rules. There should be no grey areas between the club and the singing section otherwise it will just lead to problems. As one example of grey areas the Don Cowie song with the IRA lyrics, it isn't necessarily sectarian but could be seen as sung by people who are sectarians, it could be seen as political, it could be seen as anti-terrorism, it could be seen as irrelevant to anything football related, it could be seen as a reaction to IRA supporters............ where do the club stand on this song and what are the singing sections thoughts. This isn't a cue to start discussing the Don Cowie song (that has been done to death elsewhere) it is more emphasising that the simple answer is club and fans talk about it (and other songs) and firm up what is expected of the singing section and their responsibilities to the club. Personally I think all members of the singing section should have to do X Factor style auditions in the Gorgie Suite as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment the club are unsure if they are actually going to get a certificate for the new main stand because a number of objections have already been raised about people standing in it. It seems at the moment that as we are the only club without the relevant certificate needed those that issue said certificates may be planning on using Tynecastle as a guinea pig for future issue/renewal of such certificates. Be a pity to see the new main stand reach full completion and then HMFC to then discover it cannot be used as it doesn't have the correct certificate. sorry but what the.....are you on about regarding a certificate?
