sac Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Take your own carry out, but donate the price of a ticket to FoH, & ask HMFC if the toilets could be used. Put Gary Mackay in the stocks & charge a £1 for a wet sponge to throw at him. Make a fortune Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the news that pubs and restaurants with outdoor spaces will likely be allowed to open in July, wouldn’t it be cool if we monetised the plaza. Brilliant idea, put it in writing 😜 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyCant Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 (edited) On the pitch would be a tremendous idea !! You’d get 700 - 1000 on there no problem. Groundsman would go mental though. 200 tables of 4. 800 people. 25 staff. £10k profit in 4 hours . 2 4 hour sessions a day . 1 week for the pitch to recover. Do it again once a week all summer long . Stop mid September Get the players to serve. Lol Edited June 16, 2020 by JimmyCant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3Bigcupsoon Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Thought I would post the Email I have sent to Hearts today enquiring if Tynecastle could be used (not the pitch) as a beer garden when these premises are allowed to open. Not many pubs have outdoor facilities so there is bound to be a demand for facilities. Do supporters think this would be viable ? #Only Hearts I am going online today to renew my season ticket as I had always planned, but like so many was waiting for confirmation we were going to fight this ludicrous decision from the SPFL. I am also an FOH contributor along with my son. I am writing today to enquire if Hearts have any plans to utilise Tynecastle as a massive beer garden once Scotgov announce beer gardens can open. There is bound to be a shortage of beer gardens when this happens and am hoping Hearts can capitalise on this and would be interested to know if Hearts have any thoughts on this proposal. I intend to post my suggestion on Kickback to see what response it gets from fellow supporters if this was feasible. #Hearts Only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMJ_1874 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Anyone looking for this to happen should go along to the Torphin and buy a pint in a takeaway plastic pint holder. Then walk round the back of the Toby Carvery and consume it there. Repeat this about a dozen times or so until ‘8pm closing time.’ Then check the state of the place when everyone leaves. Not sure this would be a welcome suggestion unless full welfare facilities were in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toggie88 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Scottish Government just updated guidance today. Confirms toilet facilities can be used for beer gardens etc. I'm pretty close to a lot of this with work. Happy to discuss with the club if they think it's a possibility. Local Authorities been told by the Gov to be flexible with occasional licenses. Good chance they would get one if they applied, question would be if it would be profitable or not. Any sniff of trouble and it be closed as well, would need a good amount of security. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rab Mac52 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Hawick Rugby Club have been given permission to open a beer garden on their pitch next week. It is to hold up to 150. A precedent has been set and the authorities may be happy to look at applications for suitable sites. And no, I'm not suggesting we site ours on the hybrid pitch. Not after the opening concert for the festival last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bn jambo Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 I was happily drinking on the pitch whilst at the festival opening last year, so licence could already be in place for Tynecastle out door areas, maybe need to fence off the plaza and do table service but this is a great idea whoever came up with it 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But these circumstances mean we need that. It's almost August anyway, they could just put up the usual traffic restrictions and prop up a socially distanced mini festival for the folk who live here.
