Hybrid Pitch

Which tunnel will the team be running out of this season?

Wheatfield

[Kiwidoug]

Apparently our new pitch is an absolute death trap.  It's all to do with the height of the pitch and the run-off.  Its entirely possible that if Harry tacked McGinn and knocked him over the touchline, it could cause him tremendous harm.  

 

Fortunately his arse would be OK as it would still be in the centre of the park.

 

This technical data comes from an irrefutable source so we should all be worried sick.

Had a quick look. The desperate bitterness is quite amusing actually.

One complaint about the stadium is the weeds on the paving outside the main stand not a good look, all it needs is some weed killer then the place will look spick and span.

The other 3 stands will have to be replaced, too. 20-25 years old and about to fall down because of the "inferiur shteel" used during construction. 

 

It's a fact, I read it on Hibs.nut.

It might only be 20 seats but when you get an email telling you your season ticket seat has been removed close to the start of the season I can tell you it isn't nice.

 

Luckily for me Hearts got me sorted out for another decent seat before the season starts.

 

 

And the only reason we got that email is because I phoned them the day before to ask what was happening with my (disappeared) seat that I saw on this thread! Terrible

communication from the club but the ticket office did a good job in coming up with a solution.

That was always going to be an issue with monoblock. Suggested at the time it was installed a bulk order of weedkiller ... but maybe the budget didn't stretch to that.

It isn't in the premium seats mate it is the back rows between sections R & S which are platinum seating.

 

 

 

The TV studio is placed there as there are existing stairs leading from the Skyline lounge to this area at the back of the stand.

Maybe we can stretch the budget to dig out the weeds on JKB too

I thought the studio was being built in the main stand/roseburn stand corner, im sure I seen plans, did they get knocked back or something?

 

There was plans produced however there was just too much steelwork obstructing the interior to make it practical.

I noticed the weeds when I popped round to the shop the other day - a bit unsightly but pretty sure the Club will get some weed killer sprayed.

 

I did also notice that the joints in the monoblock need re-sanded.

We could get this guy on the case, it seems to be perturbing him a lot, too.

Surely you could go down and converse near the weeds and let your bum breath do the job? 

[queensferryjambo]

I must need my eyes tested I was in at the ticket office and never noticed anything on the plaza in fact as it was a really sunny day I walked up thinking how stunning it was looking.

 

Next time I go - thanks to this thread - I will probably see nothing but weeds, chewing gum or seagull shit on the plaza as I will be looking for it

I’ll do the weeding for 50k per year.

TBF the seagull shit is quite bad - not surprising as it hasn't rained for months!!   Didn't see much chewing gum though....

Was just coming to post that pic, how fantastic does it look now it’s been ‘match cut’.

 

Looks good to me, but it does look a bit shabby looking at the touch line? Prob due to the shadow I’m guessing?

The linesman would be on the right as you look at that photo. I can’t see any difference between each side though. Can’t even see Astro.

Looks to me like that part of the grass will be covered by the reddish/maroon carpet - the carpet has been folded back has it not?

[Cut The Crap]

Looking good. Can’t wait to see it for real next Tuesday.

Just passing by.... 

But managed to spy the chewing gum... 

 

Thats like passing by the ladies of the night but noticing the tattoo of her 5th  kids name, " Britney" on her inner thigh. 

 

****ing clown. 

 

Caught out - checking out the magnificent structure and contemplating how his own teams is a pile of horse shite, never mind seagull shit. 

 

It'll be cleaned before our first game ya dobber , why clean something that isn't being used just to do it again for when it will be a few weeks later.

My guess is that he passes there every day and gets himself in a right lather thinking about how we were nearly liquidated, and now we have rebuilt in to something much bigger. Strange conflicting feelings of hatred and jealousy pickling his bitter little mind. ?

Some pics from Tynie today. 

 

Have to say, treated brilliantly by the staff, big thanks to John and his colleague in the Museum who treated us so well.  Gave my wife and our black lab (Rudi) a guided tour.  The pitch and stand look sensational.
