I can't see any downside to this if they get the same pitch as Murrayfield. Celtic played on it and they said it was an excellent surface.

Happy with this if part of the deal is them paying to keep the pitch in good nick.

Isn't the picture in the OP just some random post from Facebook?

Will the SRU not have the lamps already for Murrayfield ? So transporting them to ER may not be an issue
Doing the 2013 Edinburgh half Marathon for McMillan it would be awesome if anyone fancies sponsoring me, http://www.justgiving.com/colin-smith1875 ,go on make a fat man run

The Stand itself does not conform with the Green Guide in terms of exit widths and evacuation times. The roof of the Stand, which is asbestos, has become very brittle and breaks and fragments on the rare occasions that balls land on the roof. Netting has been placed underneath this to protect spectators. The main seating deck is timber and therefore a higher risk for fire."
That was when the stand was around 90 years old. It's now over 100 years old.
Has time stood still for the last 12 years or have they secretly been making improvements to this obvious death-trap?

Hull and Wigan aren't great examples as rugby league is played during the summer and doesn't have the same wear on the pitch as rugby union because of the lack of mauls, contested scrums etc.
Swansea's pitch seems to cope fine with Ospreys, though Reading's isn't great these days, nor was Watford's when they shared with Saracens.
That said, the SRU will be saving an absolute packet by not having the costs of opening Murrayfield every week (if Hearts move there then they'll cover those costs rather than the SRU) so much of that money can be reinvested in to the ER pitch while we cream in the rent money, bar takings and the like.
If it makes financial sense and brings improvements to the pitch then go for it, I say.

Am I missing something? If Hibs and Edinburgh Rugby could both potentially 'share' Easter Road for home games, why couldn't Hearts and Edinburgh Rugby just share Murrayfield?
