I think there is an area set aside behind one or both goal lines where you are allowed to do this, could be wrong but I seem to remember it being mentioned before

Hi,
Sorry to hear of your friends loss. I scattered my dad’s ashes there. He wouldn’t have wanted to have been anywhere else.
Message me the details and I’ll find out who is dealing with this now and I can get the details over to you.
Thanks
Tracey

Better to approach the club directly I would imagine.

A guy I knew done it on the sly in the East. Just then a large gust of wind occurred and fans in the West got his ashes in their eyes, pies and drinks !

I was asked to scatter the ashes of a member of the Oz branch in 2005.
The club were very helpful, and I think Tam McCourt supervised it back then.
He was laid to rest just behind the goals at what is now the Famous Five end.

I did it for a friend of mine a few weeks ago. My mate's Dad used to be a linesman, he contacted the club and set it up.
The person from the club he was meant to meet on the day to do it was called Colin, but he had to leave to deal with a family emergency.
It's quite a poignant thing to do. I'd had a season ticket with my mate for 15 years, so obviously I spent a lot of time with him at Easter Road. It was a bit odd being there with his mum and dad but not him.
They have a little area set aside for it at the bottom of the slope, between the goals and the corner flag.
I was there on the Thursday, 3 days later Flo blasted the winner in at that end against my my mate's dad and brother's team.
Sorry for your friend's loss mate, it's not a nice thing to do but it feels very appropriate to do so.Last edited by Smartie; 05-01-2019 at 11:35 PM.

Probably the most important thing is what the deceased and/or their close ones want.Last edited by Mibbes Aye; 06-01-2019 at 12:52 AM.
