    Read that earlier, I wondered if Spurs were doing the big team thing and going for building in some early on set rust as part of their stadium design to give it a bit of character?

    Don't know about that , but I hope they consider a move to Twickers after their away fixture venture expires.

    Is that similar to the Rus Tin Castle?

    More chance of spotting Roy Castle from the "Sky lounge" than Edinburgh castle.

    To be fair they are record breakers...

    Hearts claiming 15 thousand at last lights game is as laughable as their penalty. Place is empty on the highlights

    This "contact" in the box and players falling down needs stamped out. Blatant dive and the ref buys it.
    It's a joke....

    I'd imagine last night there would have been lots of salt out down in the areas around tinytiny.

    That will do the rust bucket the world of good.
    Space to let

    Killie players didn’t even complain about penalty which was odd. It was soft at best.

    Poor Levein. He sounded very upset that he didn’t manage to steal 3 points.

    It's a pen all day long, I'd want that if the identical happened to a Hibs player.

    Had a butcher's at Kickback last night, they admit it's cobblers. Estimates as low as 9,000.

    It's a fairly new stance from Hibs then, up until fairly recently they only released the figures for the actual crowd.
    But you know it ain't all about wealth,
    as long as you make a note to .. EXPRESS YOURSELF!

    Changed that this season. Most games reporting 16k but probably 12-14k turning up. The sell out games having loads of gaps in all stands but still reporting over 20k

  17. #10576
    Is that how they regularly get 400,000??

    They only get to that figure by including those on the waiting list as well.

    Are you saying up to 4,000 people don't turn up?

    There's no way we only have 12k at some of our games.

    The vast majority of yams I know, either friends or work colleagues are season ticket holder and FOH mugs but pick and choose games as “the football is crap”

    Nonsense.

    How could you know we changed reporting things this season??

    I’d guess we’ve been doing it for years, same as every other club in the land has been.

    We actually started doing it last season. Greg Mailer changed the system before he left.

    That's correct. What is wrong is that it's recorded as an attendance. It should more accurately be recorded as tickets sold. Attendance is defined as being present at an event so it will be interesting to see the Arsenal "attendance" tonight.

    Arsenal "attendance" 58,420. Laughable!

    40,000 tops.

    A lot of the home areas were no more that 35% full.

    Interestingly (for some) Reading usually seem to have reported tickets sold, but for Tuesday's match against Sheffield United they gave the attendance as 6,769 - including 730 who made the trip from Sheffield despite the weather. As Reading have around 12,000 ST holders this must have been the actual crowd. I don't know whether they were trying to make a political point to the absent owners or they just decided they couldn't report a 15,000 crowd when there was clearly nothing like that in the ground.

    It is, but work seems to have ground to a halt, even the Yams own thread has dropped down the charts on Sickbag. Now that its open to paying customers work on the internals seems to be dragging at a snails pace, even the club don't appear to be giving updates on it and we all know they would be announcing it as a major innovation in Scottish football if they had so much as laid a carpet.

    Could it be they are having to wait for the coo to fill up again before things get moving?

  30. #10589
    Did I not read on here that priority is now player expenditure using the Mugs' money, so stand expenditure is currently at a standstill? When it does restart I expect it means FOH donations will continue to fund stand development, making fan ownership an even more distant possibility. Completion/safety certificate is of little or no consequence apparently.

    On another point could one of our building experts advise what effect snow and ice has on poor quality Chinese steel?

    Beast from the East = Ship load of sub standard Chinese Steel?

    I'm sure the structural steel will be designed to to support a sizeable snow loading.
