Shooter McGavin Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 The reasons why they're in the Gorgie has been done to death on here many times. We've got the enviable problem of having sold-out season tickets, so getting them all in one area can't just happen overnight. I reckon it'll take them a few years to expand beyond their current section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Berry Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Get the whole front of the Georgie safe standing and allow the Ultras to expand. It'll take time due to people wanting to be moved, but ultimately that has to be the plan. Get the N neds in there as well away from the away sections.

Not a patch on the whole stadium doing it during the 4-0 game. That was stellar trolling, the only time I can recall the whole Wheatfield stand moving. Shame the telly cameras some how didnt manage to capture it though and the best we have of it a youtube video of Lafferty laughing at it from the bench.

Aussie Jambo Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 How come we only have that many? Genuine question. It seems that all the other teams seem to have 10x as many? I love the ultras. Bringing back the shed days with the MIBs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithian Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Love the group. Appreciate they are non-political and non-sectarian. As long as that remains, hopefully in the long term Hearts work to provide them safe standing and to expand the section. Drums don't bother me. But megaphones are terrible, so thoughts are with nearby ticketholders who have to deal with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire_At_The_Disco Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 I love them, brought some much needed fan participation back to the stands, there was even a few of the prawn sandwich munchers in section S comfy seats getting involved. Anyway as an auld middle ager I hope they keep growing in numbers, would love to see a full lower standing section of the young team.

We need to be moving people out of the bottom sections and have the entire bottom section an ultras area. Tynecastle is a library without them.

Paris 84 Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 I’ve never understood why the Ultras don’t use the “Lawrence Shankland is a ****ing goal machine” song, as it would certainly get taken up by the rest of the fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelly Terraces Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 I'm another old timer & think these young lads are doing a top job, but I can think of 2 things small to improve the whole 'Ultras' thing: 1. To them personally: Lads, quit wearing all black gear like all the other groups at other clubs, it's just sheep like behaviour. Be more individual & wear wtf you like, or club colours. 2. To the club: I know it might take time & some logistics, but get them back down the other end of the ground. They had way more effect of getting the rest of the ground making a racket when they were there & are a bit lost stuck in that section at the Gorgie end.

I love the ultras. Bringing back the shed days with the MIBs. The group is bigger than their current section, as we see at away games. I reckon they could easily fill the neighbouring sections, but right now a lot of the group will still be in other parts of the stadium, and with the ST's being sold-out, it's not that easy to move folk around. With that being said, hopefully the club slowly shift folk around season-by-season until they've got the full bottom of the Gorgie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have been the cross over from Gorge Boot boys to CSF. It was about 1984 the casuals in Edinburgh started. Our fans have never backed away from any fights. E we were the worst in Scotland for a long time. That’s why I loved going in the shed as a teenager. Same as these young chairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Sifter Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Just now, Pasquale for King said: I take it you dont have dogs going off their heads when people are illegally letting of fireworks in a built up area? No, I don’t. As it happens, my dog sleeps through every fireworks night without concern, but I appreciate he’s in a tiny minority that do. That doesn’t detract from my point though. I can never understand folk who choose to live in a built up area like Slateford, yet complain about the noise. There’s probably more noise emits from the boozers/main road/schools/trainlines there over the course of a year than there is with fireworks going off once in a blue moon. I just don’t get it 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peakybunnet Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 They would be better in the school end to be honest. Closer to G and N and would create a great atmosphere. Only problem I see is the Hibs game issues. My preference would be to give them one section only and problem would be solved. Plenty season ticket holders in the school end would be happy to move across the ground. Apologies for calling it school end but always has been to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really sure what benefit they believe it brings, my great nephew was on the “march” and he couldn’t answer that either. Glad your dog doesn’t get upset by fireworks but most pets do, due to the omnipresent mice in the area lots of people have cats too. There are enough fireworks going off without our fan’s adding to the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At away games anybody can, and lots do, join up with them. Not full-blown GU’s though and not bound by the behaviour agreement that’s in place for home games.
