The other thing to note from this was that despite making a big song and dance about how their stand would be income generating with offices let out, they've said they can't do it because it costs too much with too little return.

They are genuinely an absolute shambles.

Is there a link to this comedy?

[Hibeesmad]

All those millions wasted just to finish above us and they are 10 points behind in a season where we have been pish. They be dead this time next year.

She actually looks totally stressed and probably needs to retire.

He doesn't seem to realise that the construction phase lacked an architect and a professional site manager, so the whole thing was a complete ferrago. A money pit.

Saying that an expensive investigation, where all the linen, clean or dirty, gets dragged out for all to see seems right. Would be especially interested in the evidence for the "Castle View" farce and the "Right Gaffer, that's us ready to install the seats. Where are they by the way?" bit. Also maybe ask why it seems so rusty already.

The other three stands were only meant to last 25 years. Cant remember when they built them.

[Pretty Boy]

There must be £1.5M in 2p coins in that big cow by now.

What a ****ing shambles of a club.

[jacomo]

With Alessio being emptied at Killie today, just wondering if Stendel is looking at other clubs in the division with brighter prospects than the one he is at?

Allegedly he’s got form for that sort of thing.

Are the not older than the famous five and south stands?

Whats the deal with Naismith? Injured again?

That 4 year deal looking like a great piece of business now if he can't keep himself fit more than a couple of games at a time. I know a couple of jambos at work starting to get a bit frustrated with it.

Hes back training for them.

Mid 1990s.

To be fair, loads of built structures with a 25 year life span remain in use for much longer. But still... hardly reassuring for them is it?

[Since452]

Stendel will turn this around. We'll just ignore Saturday and St Johnstone's first away win in 500 years after being sussed out by Tommy Wright. We'll just also ignore his horrendous record this season at his previous club. He'll turn it around. FTH

[jgl07]

The Wheatfield Stand was built in 1994, the same time as the North and South Stands at Hibs.

The Roseburn Stand was built in 1995 and the Gorgie Road Stand in 1997. I seem to recall Tynecastle having an ‘Open Air’ seated area at the Gorgie Road end for the ‘Gordon Hunter’ derby with the Roseburn end a demolition site.

The three stands constructed in the 1990s were all very cheap and nasty. Certainly when compared to Easter Road. The thumbprints of Wallace Mercer were all over the whole 1990s development even though he sold the club long before it was complete. Corners were cut everywhere

That's actually quite a simple question. She and her business partner built their software company up from scratch and sold it for millions to a French company.

Very different creating a disrupting IT business that is sold for millions to running a football club which is multifaceted. Look at the number of successful IT start ups that are sold for a fortune and eventually the founders are disposed off because they do not have the business acumen to run a larger maturing company.

Budge was the minority partner. Alison Newell was the real brains and her devision to retire and take a wadge of Euros forced Granny Queen Doctor Mrs Budge's hand

A song for the Derby to sum up the agm 😂

(tune of Warburton song)

The pitch it is a shambles
Ann Budge she blames the shade
The stand still isn't finished
Cos Budge still hasn't paid
So lets all laugh at jambos, listen to them moan
Cos Levein's on the backshift
And Macphee works from home

😂

JB being Jim Brydon her brother who owns JB Contracting. Suggested on another post that he was the mysterious donator. His company has £1 million in assets of which £700,000 is outstanding debt for work that has been completed. Probably, Hearts are the debtor.

You’d think they’d be asking more questions about that. Budge gets her brother to do the stand, it’s a massive screw up and twice over budget, but it’s ok because some magnificent mysterious backers have got it covered.

It’s a story, no?

Alarm bells should be tuning that they have a £400,000 deficit in the budget......

Knowing the guy and the company in question of old, being essentially joiners, I'd imagine they were only involved in the internal fit-outs, probably being paid on a time and materials basis due to the design changing from day to day.

Jim's a good guy and always struck me as being very honest. I'd be very surprised if he was pocketing squillions from the Tynie project.

Yes but news ignoring. Think when Budge is gone it will come out in the wash. Part of the £1.5 million to finish stand is probably some the money her brother's company is owed. Maybe why she us staying on a year beyond when she is supposed to be paid back so that she sees he gets is money.
