    Filling in the corners

    Aye, right after the good doctor has finished concreting up the gap between their ears.

    Am assuming the walloper that came up with that one isn't a structural engineer or architect.

    I asked if it would be before the megastand was finished and where the floodlight pylons were going to go?? His response.... 1-5 blah blah.

    Obvious he’s been reading it somewhere!

    I think you’re at the wind up, nobody with an ounce of sense could think that the corners could be filled in. Oh wait he’s a Jambo !!!

    All we need is the rest filled in and it'll perfect.
    Filling in every ****er that sits in it would also clean things up.

    I’m sure you said what corners Aldo
    Think there are only a few ways they can increase capacity
    Knock the stadium down, and move
    Lower the pitch (don’t give them that idea), maybe give them another 2,000 seats
    Build another 3 Mega stands at £20m each, take them up to 24,000 capacity max
    Have I missed anything
    Lowering the pitch to add seats would make their playing surface even smaller.

    Previous flights have landed on runway 24 so it’s likely that the approach will be over the Firth of Forth, so good news if you live in the North of the city and want to point it out to your kids or your inner child.

    That's in the same league as Bulgarian Balcony and Solo Clapping in 'Piazza'

    Delusion is the right word. I was at a bbq a couple of weeks ago and one of them assured me that the pitch size had been addressed and they could now host group games and international matches. When I pointed out that this couldn’t possibly have happened I was told we’d be forever in their shadow.

    United we stand here....

    They can't make the pitch any wider so maybe the idiot thought they'd "addressed " the problem by making it deeper.

    Forever in their shadow-apologies to Lee Wallace but this is the other kind of grass.

    You really do have to remember they don’t do FACT!

    They like to live in this world where they beLIEve that they are getting the best of the best and it is a cut above everyone else!

    How wrong have they been. As I mentioned in an earlier post...... restricted views, no directors box, poor media facilities, rust and the list goes on and on.

    If this is the best of the best then frankly they can have them!

    Mind I’m just a jealous peg selling hobo after all !

    His follow up tweet yesterday is beyond parody: "I’d just like to add a final tweet to this thread for all the Hibs fans sharing it today.

    We need to come up with a name for this scenario, as it sounds very similar to the principle of 'Godwin's Law'.


    "As an online discussion (with a Jambo) grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving (5-1, Wee Team or Forever in our Shadow) approaches 1...... at which point, that person has quite clearly lost the argument."


    Maybe something in Latin, like Comfortius Blanketus.

    C'mon, Billy - in order to revamp something it has to have been vamped in the first place. That hovel on stilts never approached anything like vamped.

    Whilst we are on the subject of large units that Budge and Levein have wasted the fans money on, might I also put forward this one for consideration:

    https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/48666101

    I wonder if anyone is starting a Twitter thread tracking his flight back to Prague:

    https://www.edinburghlive.co.uk/spor...-live-15637220



    Further update on this big huddy:

    https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.c...arts-1-4949853

    One does hope he slinked away from Tynecastle with the last year of his contract paid up and in his back pocket. I think that's called a fan financed double dip.

    I worked with a guy who was a good hibby
    And was at a function there just before
    it closed and was nearly thrown out for getting up and
    singing 40 shades of green.

    It's pretty obvious from that that he reads this forum, so suck on this Colin... YOU TRACKED HIS FLIGHT!!!... and then tweeted his progress for the other deluded, cap-doffing cardigans. Why would you do that if you didn't think he was going to be absolutely brilliant? I mean, seriously... are you 12?

    Is that before or after the optional seats in the stand?
