Guest Ultraviolet Catastrophe Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 There will be 40 thousand plus at Murrayfield and at 30 quid a ticket we'd pull in 1.2m from gate money alone. Extra hospitality, merchandising etc. make it a no brainer. Rather it was at Tynie though. If we do take 40,000 to Murrayfield it'll look gash with all the empty seats and a large proportion won't be Hearts fans. You'll get loads of randoms just turning up for the game and diluting the atmosphere totally. No thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frodoker Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Taken from the Hearts site The first leg will take place at Tynecastle on August 18th, with the return leg at White Hart Lane a week later on the 25th. Tada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guildford_Jambo Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Well if you had a season ticket you'd be sorted for your ticket at Tynie How about those of us with season tickets who want to take along friends/family to this game - we couldnt sit with them unless its at Murrayfield...

Deans Jambo Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 If we don't play this at Murrayfield then we'd be absolutely nuts!! This! I totally get where the s.ticket holders are coming from but the facilities for this match such as corporate are all much better at Murrayfield. We have to remember how much f in money this will generate. The interest i'm getting already i believe we will fill the egg chasers dome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobo_755 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 The game will not be moved to Murrayfield. Hearts confirmed this at the start of the season that all European games will be at Tynie and has passed inspections already for european games.

Guest Ultraviolet Catastrophe Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 How about those of us with season tickets who want to take along friends/family to this game - we couldnt sit with them unless its at Murrayfield... Don't take them. This isn't a day trip ffs. Who really wants a proper Hearts fan to be put out because some whopper decided to take his cousin cos he once liked Spurs on the telly? **** that. Anyone who does that is a bit of a wrong'un. So obviously you'd want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudi must stay Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Could be a sell-out. Do you think Vlad will take the financially viable option? I don't like Murrayfield usually, but it was great against Barcelona and we would get similar crowd for this one. Imagine 30,000-40,000 singing the Hearts song. Obviously it would be nice to bring Spurs to Tynecastle though. Thoughts? he might. But I hope he doesn't, having done quite well in the Champions League they're used to playing in big arenas like that, it would be the same as against Barca we'd struggle to get the ball..

Guest Ultraviolet Catastrophe Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 its a cruel world isn't it but there'll be plenty corporate fans there for the occasion, may aswell join in. That's why they'll be paying ?100+ for the privilege. Corporate will be a mix of Hearts fans and folk wanting the full executive experience on a big day. That's totally different from snapping up a ?15 ticket in the Main Stand so you can give your Dad a day trip at the expense of someone who's followed the team for years. Even if they don't attend regularly they're still way more deserving of that brief than your Dad and you know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Dover Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I think a team of Spurs calibre is one that could really test the Murrayfield theory? Forget the Barca match This is a showpiece game that also COUNTS and it could easily attract TWICE tynie's capacity ! I'm sorry but I just don't hold with this fortress Tynie pish either and unless Spurs have an off night it's going to be a hard shift for all those in Maroon.

Boris Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 First of all I'd prefer Tynecastle but.... Murrayfield would allow us to cash in. Murrayfield would allow a bigger crowd I also don't think that the atmosphere would be too bad, given who we are playing. They would bring a sizeable support and I reckon that would make the atmosphere pretty good. Although not as good as Tynie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to remember how much f in money this will generate. The interest i'm getting already i believe we will fill the egg chasers dome. Don't give a toss how much it's worth, this is arguably one of the biggest games in Hearts history and i want us to give ourselves the best chance of winning as we can, because last time I checked that's what football is all about, "winners and losers" ,if we win this will go down as one of the " Glorious nights" in our long and proud history. In 20 years time no one is going to say remember the night we made ?2m when we played Spurs, but should we win at a packed Tynecastle then it will be a night we will never forget, and that my friend is something that money will never buy Tynecastle for me, who knows we might not be there for much longer, let's saviour every chance to enjoy nights like this.
