Anyone know when the new kits will be released or will we have to complete some kind of quest or solve a complex puzzle to find out?
Home Kits planned for start of next week

When you pick your section it’s on the pricing drop down bar

With Dowds out next week, who is going to be upfront? Can only think of McKenzie and willoughby. Don’t think we have anybody else.
Likely along the same line as the team who put 4 past them the last time we played them

I know mate... but you've already read how scunnered even longterm season ticket holders are and a good few not just handing their money over.... Then there's all the other points I've made previously about trying to get us disenfranchised fans back and new support. If they don't get the finger out, I don't believe the build it and they will come ethos will work. It's a football club and football is the product they sell to us paying public.
While I fully understand the need for a sound financial business, shiny new stuff is not what it's about and going on various posts of yours, and I don't want to sound like a twat here, but you seem to have the blinkers on, as does the club about what the fans, outwith the core support feel.
I am not parting with hard worked for money to stand and admire a stand.... even if it is fucking beautiful!
Shiny new stuff does help with the long term plans of the club and a majority of fans support it , Hub has brought in much needed income , new shop has more than doubled the sales , new hospitality going to bring in over 100% more than old suite , I would hate to think where this club would be without the funds being provided from the shiny new things

I know bud and I'm behind that. But if the footie continues to be atrocious, you're not going to increase hospitality bums on seats or increase attendances in general. Which is just a downward spiral to less £, and even poorer quality football. I've always stated my heartfelt gratitude to Smith, I'm just praying this summer is the start of the focus shifting. We are, after all, a football club, not a building firm.
He did say he had a 5 year plan , we are about to enter year 3 of this and building infrastructure to raise funds for the playing side are almost complete so really looking forward to what happens in the next couple of years

Maybe just me but it almost feels an embarrassment having an award's night after this shitshow of a season
Let’s not acknowledge players who did have a good season

The £100 to play at Gayfield post has taken an interesting turn in the comments
Do it at Ayr every season end , manager always takes part either managing or playing , this year Scott Brown and Steven Whitaker will be involved in a playing capacity , for our £100 we get to play on the pitch , team introduced over the tannoy , get your playing kit name and number on back and keep the kit at full time followed by a buffet in the bar

I’m sure we had this discussion before, and the circus was in the car park…
It’s definitely in the car park , good income for the club when we are playing away from home that week

Not sure if I’m reading the email right - is it just ST holders from the stand who have the option of moving to the new stand or all ST holders?
Anyone can pick a seat , you would need to change from terracing and chose to move to a seat I am led to believe

Will a loss for ICT on Friday night and a win for us on Saturday see us safe do you think?
Would put us 7 points ahead with 3 games to go
Us:
Dundee Utd A
Partick A
Pars H
ICT:
Raith H
Pars A
Morton H
The good thing about ICT s run in is that they are playing teams around us ( Dunfermline and Morton) , so cutting each others points available

Yeah thats my assumption too.
My thoughts on it are, with the club having already stated the intention of developing the other corner of the railway end (we were rejected for the grant i think) - maybe a possible idea for that corner would be to eventually add new catering and toilet block as part of a development. It could serve as the facilities for the away end - meaning that the North Stand could exist independently as a home area.
Edit. I am of course getting ahead of myself. I'm just very excited to get back out on the NT tbh. SRE does my nut in quite a bit.
The current toilets in away end will remain in place along with catering facilities , so hopefully home fans can get the full run for the majority of games

At some points of the game last night I sat looking over to the NT and convinced myself that the front row won't see over the wall
it must be an optical illusion as that 1st row between the Heineken and Mr Basrai sign looks "restricted view" if you're a short arse
Certainly an optical illusion, anyone over about 2 foot tall can see over the wall

He got away with an off the ball incident in the 2nd half too that not many folk noticed.
Yes he used an elbow in that one

There was nothing in the Bryden incident at the end of the first half.
If you see the video that the analyst had it is a clearly 100% head butt , Baird trying to say Bryden collided with his shoulder

Pretty sure one of your coaches got booked at some point. Neither dugout was happy with the ref.
Think it was the sub who was just about to be brought on Allan Power that got booked

Video clearly shows Baird head butting Bryden just before half time

We could have just swapped McHugh for Smith.
Chalmers showed it was the correct decision to bring him on I think

Half the time I forget we have Paul Smith. Clearly isn’t rated at all by Brown if we’d rather play a striker there than bring him on.
The choice would have been to bring on Chalmers or Smith ,I think it would have been too much to bring McKenzie ( playing into a strong wind ) off at same time as McHugh ,

47 years ago today. Wednesday 6th April 1977.
Heart of Midlothian 1 Ayr United 2
Tynecastle was the venue for this midweek Scottish Premier Division relegation decider. There were 2 automatic relegation places in the 10 team top flight league. Going into this vital game Ayr were sitting in 8th place and Hearts were just 4 points behind them in 9th place. With 5 games to go after this only a win for Hearts would give them a chance of avoiding relegation for the first time in their history.
11,000 fans turned out for this Wednesday night match and it was Ayr who took an early lead in the 5th minute with a goal from Cramond. This was cancelled out with a Hearts goal just before half time. In a tense second half Ayr regained the lead in the 56th minute with a strike from McCall. Then as time began to run out the atmosphere in the ground began to change as the first boos began to ring out round the ground from the large Hearts support. A few fans began to move towards the exit, and the first Hearts scarf was thrown onto the pitch by a disappointed fan leaving the ground.
Malcolm Robertson was playing for Hearts that day. He had been an Ayr United player only a few weeks before and had been their top scorer that season. He was was then transferred from Ayr to Hearts, the club he had supported as a boy, in a £10k deal. As the final whistle approached the playing surface was covered with a sprinkling of maroon and white scarfs discarded by Hearts fans. Ayr's Jim McSherry then picked up a Hearts scarf and handed it to Malcolm Robertson his team mate only a few weeks before. Words were exchanged, a punch was thrown and McSherry was laid out flat on the ground. The referee had his back to the incident, but the far side linesman had seen everything and raised his flag to attract the referees attention. Robertson was sent off and soon after the final whistle blew. Both Hearts and Kilmarnock were relegated and Ayr were safe in the top flight of Scottish football for another season.
And every word of this is true. I know, because I was there.
Gordon Cramond and Walker McCall were a great partnership a real little and large combination

What goalposts? Is he being frozen out? f**k knows why he’s not playing.
I am sure on an interview on AUTV in last 2 weeks it was mentioned that Chalmers was injured
