I think it's Bournemouth that have 'legends' and historic club images on the ends and it looks great. Surely this has to be given consideration. At the very least paint it/board it off to make them maroon.

I was going to say the same thing! Looks smart what they have at the ends of their stands!

I'd go for a montage of iconic images - various players holding the cup aloft, Super Wayne hands aloft after scoring THAT goal, Beattie doing the Beattie, plenty of other candidates.

Could we not get some sort of digital system where you could change the images for every game?  Think about it. Every time we play someone we could put some relevant images up so that away fans can see them. Beattie for Celtic and take your pick for hibs. For hibs I would put Robbo in one corner and Wallace Mercer in the other...

I wouldnt mind if they painted them maroon or put up some legends banners ect. 

I voted for maroon but reinstating blown up photos of past players like we had a few years ago would be better.

Would look good . Am sick of this the old Strongbow sponsor kept the hearts badge.

Agree that the half sign does look daft, but as a small bit of pedantry - those weren't Strongbow signs.

 

They date back to the days of having all:sports as our sponsor. That's who was on those signs.

I'd like us to hang a load of supporter's club flags, 'ultras-style' signs and better-designed legends banners in those corner sections.

 

 

An excellent idea, as long as we can have some nice big CSF banners (and the odd union flag) to go with the usual Dumfries Hearts, maroon St Andrews Cross, etc, stuff.

 

Should keep most sections of our support happy.

 

:thumbsup:

I always think the Bournemouth stadium looks more full because of what they have on the end of the stands. I think it would look good at tynie if they were full of legends. Or just maroon. Or even just the way they are ?

 

I agree with getting the floodlights etc painted white asap though.

Tell me my minds not deceiving me...the Wheatfield used to have big banners at either end, showing massive blown up pictures of the Hearts supporters eh? Much like the Bournemouth banners folk on here are referring to?

 

Ive not just made that up have I? When exactly was that? I’m thinking late nineties, early naughties?

The 2005/06 season.

 

Your memory's not once what it was, huh? :laugh:

Just to back it up....

p9250964.jpg?w=616

 

Not the best picture, but you can clearly see the all:sports sign at the end of the wheatfield. This picture is from 2004.

 

I 'think' if my memory serves me correctly - there WERE strongbow signs up prior to that, but the current ones left up are defo the all:sports ones (or at least the top half of).

 

Here we go - finally found one of the strongbow ones - as you can see, totally different.

I'm actually pretty certain that dating back to before the strongbow ones, there might also have been McEwans ones as well.

 

Edit there defo was:

Aaaaand for completeness sake - heres a pic with the gables covered in the 'fan' banner thingy.

I liked the player banners that eyebrows Phil brought in.

 

Would be good to do something but clearly not a priority costwise.

Must be some talented Jambo artists who'd love the opportunity to put some graffiti style on the grey breezeblock spaces.  New Stand looks great, the ot

Wish they would paint the stepps in the Wheatfield first. I'm in Section B and the amount of folk slipping and falling when the surface is wet is unbelievable. I don't think they had had a coat of anti slip paint for a long time.

Like this idea. 

 

Another with Rudi would be good too. Something like below:

The inside of the stands currently look a bit tired, particularly now that the new stand has gone up. Would look 100 times better and more modern if the insides were painted maroon and ideally trusses cleaned up/painted white.

 

 No idea how it can be put to the club though, and whether they would look for volunteers giving that it isnt exactly going to be a priority right now

 

From the below picture already posted its amazing how small changes can make a big difference in modernising the stadium at relatively low cost

First thing that came to my mind was the tastekess graffiti someone spray painted on a wall near Tynie fairly recently...

 

Would look good in the stadium to be honest.
