Hearts' New Stand Thread (Merged)

[Albanian Hibs]

She's dressed for going on site - no big deal (except it's no longer meant to be a building site).

She is wearing a pair of Uggs with a hard hat. As I said, what a state 😂

[SirDavidsNapper]

Will the fans have to wear hard hats?

First club in Scotland to provide hard hats for fans. The best hard hats in the world.

[greenginger]

Just because her brother is a Hibby doesn’t mean folk can’t laugh at how much of a shambles this whole thing has been. After this I certainly wouldn’t hire him or his company, I’ve also got mates who are tradesmen and support Hibs but wouldn’t let them near my house.

Simple fact is, Budge and her brother along with the whole project have been a laughing stock and long may it continue.


I don't think Budge's brother has much responsibility in the new stand shambles.

His company was in charge of the works under the Wheatfield Stand and have been pretty much complete for months. ( even allowing for the fact the place only got a temp. occupancy certificate yesterday. - I'd guess that has to do with the extra safety work required around the distillery storage facilities which wasn't his remit. )

The responsibility for the new stand delays are the fault of Hardies as contract managers , BSB as structural steel erectors ( if they fell behind program ) and Clark Contracts whose workforce have been on site doing concrete, brick and blockwork construction.

The Budge brother has only been outfitting and obviously couldn't start until the structure was in place.

Of course, the whole omnishambles started when Mrs Budge and the architect Clydesdale decided to go off half-cocked and start construction work without approved plans or a building warrant.

When this stage is complete and the arguments gets round to who pays for all the extras I can only see this ending up in the Courts.

This thread may have a lot of mileage left in it. :thumbsup:

As I post this, just over an hour until a decision is made, and if that is what it looks like as of an hour or two ago, I'd be thinking that a safety certificate shouldn't be forthcoming, it's still a bloody building site ffs.

I know everyone jokes about the 70s office block but for me the worst parts are the decisions to retain the curved Anderson shelter roof and the badge seats. Effectively copying the rest of the already dated stadium look.

Ann Budge is a fanny she wears a workies hat
She hangs about construction sites in Uggs with steel toe caps
And when she built a new stand it had a big glass wall
But Hearts are still ***** on the park and gonna win **** all! HOOOOOOOF!

Saturday 18th November, 2017 at 10:36am

The uncertainty which still surrounds our fixture on Sunday is deeply frustrating for all concerned. We have prepared all week to play on Sunday and that remains very much our focus.
We are, however, very aware of the impact this is having on our supporters. We would like to reassure them that, in the event of a postponement, those with tickets will be offered a full refund should they be unable to attend the rearranged fixture.
We all want the game to go ahead as planned and are hopeful that today’s inspection will confirm that is the case.
We will communicate the outcome as soon as possible.

Yep. And play the "we tried so hard" card. I hope the overtime is costing them a fortune.

[Mikey]

Having got to early afternoon with it not being called off I suspect they're working through a list of things to do but there isn't anything that will be a showstopper. So on that basis I suspect it'll go ahead.

If there was still a major issue at this stage we'd have heard by now.

Health and safety these days I suspect it could be called off for a pretty small reason. Although it would be quite funny if it was delayed again, it's kind of like a bad film dragging on now. meh.

I think we’re giving the Queen of Hearts an uneccesary unfair shake here. Surely this is no different, from say, an inclement weather pitch inspection, which can take place very close to the kick off time? Let us remove Hobo bitterness from the equation and not castigate this magnificent woman who is doing such a fantastic job at Hearts.

Hope it is called off as the media now seem to be waking up to the complete shambles Budge has made of this project. They might now get the ripping they deserve.

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

That contradicts the frantic work currently on that entrance just now. With such tight deadlines they will only be working on areas that need to secure that safety certificate.

Their stadium can be accessed all the way round can’t it? They shut off the Wheatfield and Roseburn with a big shutter for derbies but for other games the home fans can get into the roseburn via the Wheatfield turnstiles.

[SeanWilson]

Does the stand only house home fans? If so, let it go ahead and if it isn't safe and a yam is injured it's all on budge and this sham of a council!

[Green_one]

Knowing Hearts they will wait till around tea time tonight before calling it off.

Logically, they must be very close to getting a temp certificate , with only remedial work that could be done in the time needing completed. Well that would be the case with any sensible enterprise. The fact it is going to the wire is crazy. I never bet but I think they will be given a certificate and play. Too much pressure on H&S to do so.

It will be hailed as a trumph. :confused:

Yeah but don’t imagine they would have the away fans entering from the Wheatfield though

[RoYO!]

Which reminds me of another feature the yams' new stand has which our East doesn't - reduced prices for people with extraordinarily short legs (say 2 feet) and extraordinarily long upper bodies (say 20). Section T lower. They've thought of everything!

Ultimately if they'd gone for larger panes of glass, with proper curtain, all the same colour... i.e. Transparent. And all the way to the ground level... it would look good.

But they didn't. So it doesn't.

[Aldo]

Surely all the materials lying around within the shell are a fire hazard??

Am I right in thinking that a certificate will have to be granted for every game until it’s completion??

I think it will get the go ahead but Shambles FC will have all this as part of their history for fellow fans to look back on and say what a mess you made trying to build a stand.

That's the difference between both clubs - Professionalism ! Our main stand was built on-time and on-budget - the publicity it attracted was positive, fans know they're sitting in something which is safe, well-built, solid ! Compare that to their new stand with all the well-known problems it's had -it might be better/safer compared to the old asbestos death-trap they had but could any of them honestly say their new '8th Wonder Of The World' is 100% better/safer - NO !

SPFL should have stepped in and sorted this at lunchtime!

If they had a certificate we would have heard by now!

I am guessing it failed the inspection earlier and they have been given some extra hours to get the parts that failed fixed. Should have just failed it, special treatment again.

... So that'll be 150 workies a bit pissed off at having to work right into their Saturday night :aok:

The club is continuing to work with Building Control with the aim of hosting tomorrow's Ladbrokes Premiership match against Partick Thistle. Further updates will follow in due course.

This is out of order btw and unfair in PT and more importantly their travelling fans.

Once again the powers that Be are bending over backwards to accommodate the yams.

For a supposed big team they are a total and utter embarrassment of a club

The way Hearts have carried on is disrespectful to Partick directly, and Scottish football in general. Tin Pot club.

If the CEC are giving them more time to get the place in order so that a certificate can be issued we should all be complaining to our Councillors. The Council is skint. Cuts being made everywhere but how much overtime, expenses etc are being paid out to help these imposters?

Have heard that they don't want news of their stand being ready to clash with Mugabe's resignation speech and thats why it's delayed. Understandable given their worldwide recognition! Apparently that is also why Mugabe has delayed his speech as waiting on an announcement from Tincastle!

It shows exactly how weakly governed the game is in Scotland when a club can push it down to about 20 hours notice that a game will be played without any threat of sanctions or anyone even knowing what the sanctions would be if they'd failed to convince building control to work overtime in order to sign off a stand the night before a match.
