Low steel costs. Prob record low cost for workforce.

Let's sell it out a few time and make a case for putting the corners in! :wink::devil:

I'd love to see that as well but the attendances against Der Hun were around the 14-15,000 mark last couple of seasons so it's highly unlikely.

Absolutely delighted. All those knuckledragging maroon **** claiming 5 years ago that they where gonna leave us well behind them, Champions League winners, 40,000 stadium, world cup stars etc etc. Behind the scenes Mouser has quietly been working away. Training centre, stadium to be proud of, best youth set up in Scotland. Well done Rod. We are on the up!! Everything is in place for us to start building a quality squad in the years to come.
Cant wait for the hun game. Noise should be brilliant. They are havin to sell everything. Just hope we can give them a right good game.

Well done all at ER for the completion of the East Stand. The stadium looks great.

Unfortunately £27 a ticket and the ridiculous kick off time will mean a crowd of around 14,000.

I can see the club going back to the days when the south wing of the West Stand was given over to away supporters. Those who are ST holders there now will be asked to move. I know many on here will disagree but it makes sense if we can't fill the 3 stands with Hibs fans at the present ticket prices.

Can't see that one happening with the situation outside of the ground with the gate closed etc.

Will Rangers fans be given the full stand behind the goal again?

i think hibs should give some of the west to old firm fans especially if that is what we are asking 27 quid. it would make the west look fuller and is the only way wer will come close to selling out the stadium. lets not forget last years average attendances were around 12500. nowhere near 20250.

Glad to see at the end of the article on official hibs site that the Rangers fans will be housed in the South stand. There where a couple of murmurings about OF fans possibly being segregated in the south end of the east stand to make up the lack of hibs support, but hopefully is a load of BS :top marks

Still don't think £27 is too expensive for a cat A game personally.

Can't see that happening this season, but could see it happening next season, if our crowds don't increase, and we don't get north of 18k for the cat A games.

Although it would most likely be in the East that it would happen, as they've built it to allow for segregation in there.

1 stand at broomloan holds around 9000. Would we take 9000? No. Would rangers bring 4500 to Easter road. Yes. Would there be an extra 1000 seats empty? Yes. 27 pound a pop. And a better atmosphere as hibs fans closer together.
Unless we start selling all our own seats I think this makes sense.

I think we the Hibs support should not forget the effort by the Hearts supporting female demolition expert. It was the vigour by which she went about demolishing the old East stand that allowed Hibs to have their stand ready ahead of scheduel! :thumbsup:
