    Hertz new stand Mk 2

    Apparently the gimps are building a stand at Heriot Watt for their U20's games. They'll be telling us next that they are the only two-stadium club in the world!

    Saw it going up last week, will hold around 200.
    Not sure who’s paying for it though, Oriam or Hearts

    Should finish their first one before building more. By the way why would you build a stand at a place you rent? Are you sure it is Hearts who are building it.

    I hope it's the Yams paying for it because Hibs will use it as well.

    It will be with the leftover seats from their main stand. Only another 1800 to get rid of now.

    I think you have been given bum information there. Hearts are struggling to pay for the cost over-run on their new megastand. Why would they pay to build a new stand at a facility they rent? Especially as it is also used by Hibs!

    PS: Manchester City have two stadiums: the Etihad Stadium and the Etihad Arena.

    Queen's Park also have 2 stadia, Hampden and Lesser Hampden
    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    Beat me to it. Thousands of unused seats at Tinycastle every home game. It's a great way to allow their stadium announcer to claim yet another sell out. Just remove 4k pink seats and take them to the Uni.

    I was under the impression Heriot Watt wanted to improve facilities so they could move up the leagues - didn't think it had anything to do with the facility the yams rent - IF THEY EVEN PAY THIER BILLS...remember all the £££ they were due previously to HW and never paid ?

    Agreed - isn't it the case they don't play developement games there because of the cost ?

    Do you think they'll finally manage to get a view of the castle from this one?

    They can't go on building stands all over the place until they get it right.

    If its at the Oriam then its the Oriams stand not Hearts. Anyone can book those pitches and you certainly don't pay Hearts to use them.

    I thought their development team played at Stenhousemuir 'cause they got paid £700 or something.

    I think they are moving away from Stenhousemuir, and using the outdoor pitches that belong to the Uni - according to some daft yam in the office. An evening news article perhaps? Can't check, for some reason that is a restricted site.

    There you go - nothing to do with hearts. Oriam are just adding a mini stand to the pitches.

    No they are not. A stand is being built by the owners of the site and that most certainly is not Skint of Midlothian

    I was shouting at the telly.

    Four partners involved in building this, not one of them HMFC.

    The stand is going to be used by ALL tenants of Oriam and is NOT a Jambo facility.

    Incredible that \Levein is quoted as welcoming this new Hearts facility.

    Brass neck? You couldn't make it up.
