Acey Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Guy behind me at the derby leaned forward and said "Keep this to yourself, but their stadium looks smart now!" FWIW, I agree with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Winstone Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 The new stand does a job and completes their ground quite nicely. Don't see any great crime in admitting that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toggie88 Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 I think Easter Road looks really good just now. They've managed to do it all fairly cheaply as well. Fair play to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulie Walnut Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 I was impressed also it looks nice but the atmosphere is still really poor, when I took my seat in the wheatfield on wed night you could feel the noise and the difference is immense. You can even tell on the tv listen to the roar for templetons at ER which was loud then listen to it when black scored at Tynie it about breaks the speakers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest juvehearts Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 albion road is located in one of the worst part of edinburgh - lochend. in the top 5 capital hot spots for crime you can only polish shite up so much to make it look good. at the end of the day it is still shite they still have shite facility's & the same pishy corporate hospitality they will be rubbing their ends with glee wit the fact that they can have a shiny new computer advertising hoardings now where the camera shows just a shame it shows 2 other empty stands. hibs - build a new stand out of desperation, same old fans & makes the attendances even worse than they were. pishy wee pathetic club with a stadium that doesn't do anything for the good of their survival. juve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemclaren Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Their stand is fine but the stadium lacks the atmosphere of Tynecastle. The only awesome things I've ever seen at Easter Road have always been in maroon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N User Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 It's much better than before and look alright. In ten years time, they'll be annoyed that the newest stand happens to be the worst of the lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigC Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 They will never experience the atmosphere that you get with a full Tynecastle. Yes, it looks good. Yes they have a bigger capacity. But that is the sum total of their ambitions. They are happy to be smaller than Aberdeen. They consider the stand "finished". Says it all. We are behind them in terms of current capacity and debt. We are ahead of them in trophies won, games won derbies won, proper challenges to the old firm made, European games played (and won) and most importantly in ambition.

Gizmo Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 It's a soul-less, cheap identikit design that has none of the intimate, amphitheatre-like atmosphere of Tynecastle. A windy, barren dump. I'll acknowledge that they did well to rebuild it on the cheap given the paucity of paying punters to cover the cost, but it's only a memorable ground due to the many hammerings we've given them on their own patch over the years.

Their pitch is the best, it's the newest surface and is in immaculate condition. Stadium is brilliant too, but as others have said it will never have the atmosphere of Tynie. And, when Tynie is completed, which I think it will, it will surpass Easter Road easily (hmmn... just noticed a "warn status", can a Mod PM to tell me why please) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rev Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 It's never full, and by building it they have taken away the only part of Easter road that made any sort of atmosphere. But that's OK, because they have a complete stadium. I know which stadium in Edinburgh I'd have every day of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Old Tolbooth Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 If you compare it to the Wheatfield, it's incredibly cheap and tacky looking and isn't a patch on it, however it does for them as they've always been used to cheap and nasty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigieboy Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Say what you think Craig. When it comes to that useless shower of ramjets Dave I always do. They can hide behind their purpose built, 'fully owned' shithole of a barn & their cheap, nasty looking stands but no matter how much you polish a shite, it's still shite!

leginten Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 I've not been there since their new stand went up. But it looks shite on the telly, and I'm happy to believe it's shite in the flesh. Just what the world needed - another soulless, flat-pack stadium. Build it and they will come - LOL. The day the Main Stand at Tynecastle comes down will be a sad one for Hearts and Scottish football. I'm delighted that no progress has been made on stadium redevelopment in Gorgie.
