siegementality Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) If someone from the club is looking in a few points: 1 - Although there was an update saying the fans bar would be open before and after the Hearts Colts v Ross County game, I don’t think the opening times were ever published (despite the update saying there would be a further update with the opening times!!!). That might explain why there was next to no-one in it last night (there were decent numbers at the game). I hate to see the club losing out on money. 2 - I get what the bar is. I get the look. But any chance of making it a bit more of a “fans bar” by having more Hearts related things on the walls. If there aren’t going to be optics on the wall behind the bar can we get framed pictures up (particularly of the old stand, Scottish cup, etc). The club must have lots of stuff that was taken from the old stand. For example, there is an alcove in one of the walls. That could be made into a display cabinet. Toughened glass, a few bit of memorabilia in it. The whole bar is a bit drab at the moment. 3 - Where is the high stools and high tables that were in the bar during the World Cup games? They were far better than what’s in the bar now (which includes some old chair and table that looks like they’ve been dumped in the corner). 4 - I remember being at a cup tie in Brechin many years ago and asking if there was any sauce for my pie. The guy behind the counter said “Sorry, the East Fife guys finished it last week”. It sprung to mind when told there were no crisps left “But we might have some for the next game”. FFS!! The bar has been open long enough now that the above could have been addressed. If you need any more interior design tips just let me know ?

The better the bar is the more people will use it. I have spoken to a few folk who have been in the fans bar but choose to still go to the Tynie Arms. They say it feels more like a Hearts fans bar in there than the clubs bar. I get their point but how can that be allowed to happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old armchair and table are props from the "A tale of two wars" fringe show that's on 3 times a day at Tynecastle. Highly recommend any Hearts or Football fan to watch it...superb ???

Forza Cuore Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) I thought service was decent on Saturday evening after the match considering how busy it was. Boy was serving me and also pouring pints for the next in queue at the same time. And he had a smile in his face unlike some miserable feckers in pubs up town.
