    Easter Road Stadium tours

    I know this is probably miles away from anyone’s thoughts, but will there be any Easter Road tours coming up?

    I’ve got two Hibs daft boys from the West Country coming up in a couple of weeks and would love to take them round.

    I spoke to Tom Wright a few week ago, and he said he intended resuming them when restrictions allowed

    This just came up on my feed on YouTube.

    Looks like a couple of lads jumped the gate and did their own tour.

    I know it wasn't the best idea but some of the views from the roof was amazing so thought I would share.
    Cougars!!!

    Overprivileged wee muppets trying to be gangsters. Would be a shame if they suffered a fall in their escapades.

    They are wee muppets but bit harsh to hope they fall to their death.

    ... and the other guy say something like "Hibber...knee..an"

    Presumably they realise that they've outed themselves, and that the polis will be interested?

    He has his name as his username. If Hibs wanted could they press charges for this kind of thing? Wouldn’t be too hard to track them down you’d imagine

    Is it his real name though - although I see he name checks a pal at the end of the video. Who knows. Watching the video again, I do feel there’s something wrong with these lads.

    They are wee fuds, but no harm done really.

    I remember a few excursions up to Easter Road as a laddie in the 1970's , the only time I've been on the pitch and no, I didn't carve YLT on the grass.

    Security definitely needs improving though, up and over that fence in a flash.

    my view, OK so they didn't cause any damage so no harm done, however, how many other "wee phannies" will watch this, see how easy it is to get in who WILL want to cause damage / vandalism etc to the pitch / stands etc?

    The video has been on YouTube for a month and I’d hope Hibs - as part of any comms advice they receive - have external social media and online monitoring that will have picked up on this by now, and that suitable remedial action has been taken - not least because the video creates potential Occupier’s Liability issues, and at the very least there should be a lock preventing access to the roof of the West Stand.

    What I want to know is how they got from the lower to the upper tier?

    It was the roof of the East stand that Dumb & Dumber clambered onto.

    To not give up.
    To go the distance.
    To stop at nothing.

    I'm fairly sure this is actually the law and covered by HASAWA, Work at Height regs and Occupiers liabilty act.

    Have to be pretty daft to 1) Do it 2) Film your trespassing and post it online 3) Provide your full name and where you are from.

    Shouldn't be long before they get a knock at the door.

    Trespassing alone is not a crime and is there not a few, (at least formerly influential), organisations out there that make a big thing about forgiving trespassers

    While some are suggesting “no harm done”, my first thoughts were that the relaid pitch may not have been quite ready for anyone to be running across it.

    If anything, the club may well be prompted now to reinforce those vulnerable access areas to the stadium and make it harder for any others tempted by similar ideas after viewing the video of their escapades.

    It’s maybe over sensitivity on my part but I didn’t like it when they pointed their camera at the stones on the stand referred to them as “*****”. Complete muppets.

    Yeah, that's what I meant. They'll be getting a visit from the Minister. 😀
