Celtic Game in Edinburgh - Corn Exchange event confirmed (title updated)

[Gorgie_Rules]

With the Celtic game now being confirmed as at worst being a competitive fixture for us, surely there is an opportunity for the club to put on ticketed screenings of the game inside Tynecastle? Big screens on the pitch may be a push time wise, but all the hospitality suites and potentially a big screen on the plaza? 
 

With the small allocation at Parkhead the pubs in Gorgie will be rammed so would be a good opportunity to accommodate as many fans as possible and contribute to what will hopefully be the most monumental of parties for the bus coming back (they’ll deserve the welcome even if its a poor outcome).

The skyline has already been told to close that day due safety concerns. The police are already expecting the streets to be lined.

When’s the tickets on sale for the match itself

[No Idle Talk]

Gorgie is going to be pandemonium that day. If we've won it. It would be great to have a screening of the game in all areas of Tynecastle but I'm not sure if it would work logistically. Presumably the team would parade the trophy on the Sunday and bring it back to Tynecastle and the stadium would be full. So the big screen would need to be taken down again before that.

I emailed the ticket office yesterday and they said they are hoping to make an announcement this week. Seems to be taking a while given the game is in ten days.

Probably still deciding how to break the bad news to all those Jambos who regularly go to Sellick park that there is only a hundred tickets left after the sponsors and hangers on gets theirs

[KevinKyle10]

Not necessarily Tynecastle, but does anyone know any pubs in/around gorgie I’ll be able to take my 14 year old son with me for the Celtic game? 
 

obviously got season tickets and managed to get tickets for Motherwell, but highly doubt we’ll get tickets to go through there.

Might be done and dusted by then ! 

[red]

if we can win it with Falkirk surely they bring the trophy and present it to us at home? 

 

is that how it works? surely 

[Quando, Quando, Quando]

Has the game been picked for TV yet?

Who would be daft enough to get married on the last day of the season ?

I briefly gate crashed a Wedding reception in 2006 in the Gorgie Suite after we won the Cup.

[sac]

What about the two big screens inside the stadium, or the screens on the Wheatfield concourse?

How's your marriage been since then?

All this talk of parades gives me the fear, no being negative, just paranoid!😳

I’m sure that’s what is to happen. As long as we equal Celtic’s result this weekend then we could win the league on Wednesday via various different scenarios 

[EH11 2NL]

Got to imagine if this weekend goes well for us, something will be arranged for the Celtic game

We need to better their result to win the league for definite against Falkirk.

Read what I said, we BETTER their result at the weekend.

This to give us a clear shot at Falkirk to take the league within our own control.

 

You're correct, but not the purpose of my post.

[Jack Torrance]

There's loads of screens up at Fountain Park. Surely we could take over the cinema for one day. 

 

Edit....

Yes but if we equal it, it leaves the opportunity that we COULD be champions on Wednesday in the situation we were to beat Falkirk & Celtic drop points in their game v Motherwell. If we were to lose on Saturday and Celtic win Sunday, there is absolutely no possible way we can win the league on Wednesday is what I meant

thank you both, very much! 

[Lord Beni of Gorgie]

Despite the loss in 86 many fans congregated at the Caledonian Hotel if I remember, to laud the team, it will be the same thing win or lose, this team is very much loved

Sorry but if we win it surely the cup parade would be SCHEDULED for a later date? Not immediately after the game???

It won’t be a parade. It will be similar to the Neil Pointon video’s of ‘98 of the team returning back to Tynecastle (from Parkhead incidentally!). Gorgie will be rammed due to our small allocation.

 

I suspect if we win the league the parade would be the following day a week on Sunday.

Any official parade will likely be on the Sunday regardless of which game gets us over the line (if indeed we get over the line), the cup parades have usually been the day after. There will absolutely be an unofficial 'parade' after the Celtic game though when the team bus gets back to Edinburgh if we've won it. Gorgie was carnage the night of the cup wins.

Fair! I am planning on being in Edinburgh for both Falkirk and Celtic games so hope to be part of history with everyone else!! 

[hughesie27]

The council/police have initial plans underway for a parade for the Sunday (Even if it was won a week today)

[JJ93]

Deary me yes the earliest we could win it is a week today!!

Game projected on to the Castle Rock from some location in Princes Street. Takeover of Princes St Gardens by 30,000 Jambos.

[Big_Hearts_Runner]

The Celtic game is not being beamed back to Tynecastle.

 

[Thunder and Lightning]

Can we get any local cinemas with a bar involved? 

 

Reclining seats and bevy...
