MP_MFC Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 (edited) On sorting out my ticket for next Saturday and can see the prices on sale for the Hibs game, for anyone curious as I don’t think they’ve actually published them, they are: East - adults 24, concession 19, Age 12-17 12, 11 and under 6quid. Cooper & Main are all the same bar adults at 26 Edited July 23, 2023 by MP_MFC 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pointed out to me earlier today was this is surely a fire/safety hazard. If it's about getting folk up there out of the way a net that keeps folk in there seated area when there is an emergency isn't the answer. Who do I email and essentially grass him to? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The railing could be a little bit lower but even the seats right next to the barrier aren't bad. Building regulations dictate the height of the railing but, from the Cooper, it didn’t look to be in the way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnderooMFC Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 I'm in row L, but as far as I could tell the actual view from the first row onto the pitch looks the same as it was last year. A facebook friend (and self-described short-arse) sits in the first row and she could see fine. Though she might've been standing the whole game idk. But the pic uploaded is a bad angle, the first two rows can as well as they could before. Curtain up the back is absolutely demented though. Is it to stop people throwing stuff onto the pitch? 'Cause we all know the fannies in our support do that while standing in the kiosk que... On a happier note, pie prices seem unchanged from last year No sign for the donner meat pies though so unsure if they are still an option or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's to stop people congregating there and causing blockages to 'flow' (movement of people, not ex-CEO) and to stop spillages on to to the folk in the back row is the line. Health & safety issues vs the health and safety issue it maybe creates that @Busta Nutmentioned (i.e. stops people being able to climb get out that way in some sort of emergency). I don't sit in the stand so no real opinion but that's what's been mentioned before. Edited July 24, 2023 by eliphas 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onthefringes Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Yet, nothing exists in grounds of similar type layouts eg, Pittodrie & our national stadium where funnily enough our Stadium & Facilities Manager is busy within too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't sit in the stand so no real opinion but that's what's been mentioned before. Seems to me like certain people (or possibly person, singular) within the club are just out to piss people off in this particular area of the ground. The layout at the rear of the East, and many others like it, has not been an issue in 30 years or so since all seater stadiums were introduced, and we are the only ones who seem to have developed a sudden problem with it now. Before, you would have been able to queue at the kiosk and manage to keep half an eye on what was going on on the pitch, now the curtains will prevent you from doing that. Along with the fact it obviously looks fucking ridiculous. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eliphas Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Aye it seems daft on the face of it. On a completely different note, met Dan Casey down the driving range yesterday. Nice chap. Can fair hit a ball far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

well fan for life Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) Fair play to him. Edit to add the best headline of any signing announcement I've seen: I mean it's ambitious. And I'm not entirely sure it's rooted in reality. But it's a laugh. Edited July 24, 2023 by well fan for life 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched a few A-league games and none of them have been boring. Jason Cummings being their star striker and Mark Birighitti being their star goalkeeper in recent years probably tells you all you need to know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thisGRAEME Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Have felt for a while he won't make it with us. He's simply too lightweight to make it in this league, IMO. He's not quick or strong enough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit of a yer da take but he's too wee and he doesn't seem to be technically good enough to compensate for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Does that take Tierney to the end of his contract? I don't think Ketts has fancied him since day 1 TBH... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
