Hearts getting screens

[The Spaceman]

Hilariously compromised - we shoved our wee secondary screens in that exact same spot. Cute they are trying (albeit badly) to follow in our footsteps though 😘

According to Google, both pitches are the same width, but Easter Road is 5m longer.

Google is all over the place with the Hearts pitch but no way it’s as wide a ER.

ER is as close to the standard size as there is for a football pitch at 105m long and 68m wide. Same size as Ibrox, Hampden, Wembley etc.and meets UEFA’s top category 4 size.

No way Tynie is as wide as ER.

I think tho that they have managed to squeeze their pitch out to 100m to meet the minimum UEFA standard.

100x64 i think it is?

[Bostonhibby]

Biggest, best quality, innovative , unique, most aymospheric second hand screens ever installed anywhere.

They'll be the only screens visible from the moon, when the moon is in McLeod street.

Just like when the megastand was built, just wait until it's finished.

They're not the same width

105m x 68m ER
100m x 64m Tiny

Tiny is the smallest pitch in the league - big teams, wee pitch. Feels even more cramped with stands on top of each other with virtually no run off

That is what it measures on Google Earth

Not been there in years, do they even have a visible clock these days?

If that's a silent L there are about 400,000 of them at every home sell out.

hope they don’t forget to order batteries for the big screen remote, like they did with the seats

They used to list their pitch size in yards on their website when everyone else used metric in order to mask the small dimensions a bit. Not sure if they still do.

Why was their stadium designed like that? Was it due to the proximity of other buildings? They really missed a trick not moving elsewhere instead of building those stands.

They were right to stay there. Tynie gets a lot of stick on here but I think its a great stadium and its my favourite away day venue in the league. Not sorry.

It is a good stadium to watch fitba in. I obviously prefer ER but love going there on Derby day.

[ClermistonGreen]

Hope they’ve got a TV licence and one for the screen too

[Unseen work]

That looks terrible, genuinely terrible.

It’s like going to your mates house that just bought a new TV far too big for the room.

Also the angle/lack of angle it’s at? Hardly anyone will be able to view that properly

On another note how nice is the St Gallen stadium https://twitter.com/barryanderson_/status/1559911183364362241?s=21&t=0x18N-C6VWelPrgMhhjmFw

Football grounds don't need screens. Theirs will be pointless. Ours are also pointless.

107 yards by 74 yards

Jambo once told me that it is "deliberately" smaller so they have an advantage over other teams.

It is what it is
The Budgie was determined that the unfinished main stand would see the capacity exceed 20.000
Tight fit though ,with all weather media facilities.
Now this big screen catch up.
Whatever next?

Their very own state of the art training ground,i imagine.

I'm pretty sure although my memory is getting on a bit the design allowed the stands to be taken down as required, can't recall the reason they done it that way tho. And obviously now they have a grade 1 famous super dooper atmosphere so have to keep them

I think the idea was they could move the stands with them to Millerhill or wherever it was they were going to go at the time.

Squeezing that into their small stadium. Looks so so crap compared to ours. At least ours face the pitch and offer much better viewing angles.

They couldn't put it up on their tiny corners as it would have probably crumbled them.

Tin pot stadium.

They also will be out of view for tv cameras most of the time during live games. So what would be the point in paying to advertise on them 😂😂😂 clowns.

How exactly are our screens pointless?

[Unseen work]

Believe it or not most hearts fans seem to be loving it as they think the size of it is brilliant and much better than our one small screen…..

They really are deluded

Give me our screens in each corner for all to view and then the ribbons leading to the small screens every day of the week. Very classy and looks brilliant on TV. Also gives us the opportunity to advertise.

Hearts will be able to advertise to folk in the stand only where as the ones too close to it will be blinded by the light

Surely they cannot be switched on during a game and you are right at the end of the row with their big ugly coupons right in front of it?

If they're not switched on during games then there would be no point having them.

Advertisers spending money to have them on the big screens when the stadium is shut!!!!!!!
