Hearts_fan Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 (edited) More folk did sing the Hearts song because of the presentation of the words. I'd put my mortgage on that. Ridiculing the idea that some people don't know the words is a revelation of a self-agrandising superiority complex. We're not all Edinburgh born and raised with 30+ years history of supporting Hearts at Tynecastle. Teaching people the words to songs is a self-evidently sensible way of getting more people to sing the songs. Educating younger generations is a prime example – not every child has a parent or role model who will teach them words to the Hearts songs. And then there are the adults, the new fans we should all want to bring on board as fellow fans. Providing words to the good songs is an excellent way to build an inclusive community at Tynecastle.

Feeble excuse. My son has lived in England all his life and has only been to a handful of Hearts games (more than half of them winning cup finals - lucky sod!) and knows every word. As an Arsenal fan he belted it out at the Spurs game at Tynie with gusto. To no avail alas and gave the return a miss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thegreatsd Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 On the subject of not knowing the words to the Hearts song…..A few year ago when my daughter was about 4 or 5 she sat and learned the words to the hearts song using the hector nicol version on YouTube. I was obviously very proud as she stood up and belted out the song. I didn’t have the heart to tell her she had messed up one wee bit which was quite amusing. Instead of singing the talk of the toon are the boys in maroon she worryingly sang …. The talk of the toon are the boy in my room! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got them cheap as they only show action up to head height. We simply decided to save money by altering our game to suit and we'll be encouraging other teams to do the same, You'll probably see that we're now playing the ball on the ground a lot more and high balls will be very much frowned upon.

RobboM Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I like the new screen more than I expected. My complaint is one of the most trivial in JKB history but the font does bug me especially squeezing long names into a small font for it to fit just looks messy. Thought Lawrence Shankland looked like a tight squeeze but Kio might only be legible to those in Sec G 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly wasn't triggered. 🤣 I read the guidelines for the use of screens a few years ago, and there are restrictions to what can be shown, and what can be shown in relation to what is happening on the pitch at the time etc. Sorry I can't remember the details right now, but it was things like no replays of free kicks, nothing show at corners, penalties etc. Similar or the same rules apply to the digital moving adverts at pitch-side.

Honestly wasn't triggered. 🤣 They are unable to show the full game or show any replays of contentious decisions. It’s similar when go to games at hampden. As soon as crowd shout for say a penalty the live feed goes off and zero replay shown. Even when VAR comes in then pretty certain the replays then won’t be shown on big screen either. They show replays in rugby for VAR and can hear refs aswell. Surely football should allow the same. That’s a whole other argument snd debate though.

jamboinglasgow Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Loving the new screens. Looking good. I think the content will get better the longer they have as they get used to it.
