Have also heard this contributed to an ugly scene earlier in the season, where players of both teams were throwing punches at each other right next to supporters (wasn’t there so please don’t shoot the messenger if wrong) if we are going to have a go at Edinburgh based teams, maybe should have your own house in order…… Who's having a go at Edinburgh teams 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 (edited) In terms of no walkway to the pitch, there’s loads of grounds where that’s the case, and I don’t think the requirement for one kicks in until spfl level. edit- and the requirements for preventing free viewing only applies at ground level. There’s quite a few grounds much higher up where there’s possible vantage points away from the ground Edited April 7, 2023 by parsforlife 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clangers Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 The best view is actually from the car park, used to watch my boy’s game (U12) from there when Bayside played there games there. Firhill is the perfect example of free viewing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking nonsense re punches etc. Can't even think of a game involving anything like that. Never seen anyone on here from swifts having a go at Edin based teams. Are you just bitter cos you got pumped? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnieman Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 It seems a little extravagant based on the crowds Spartans normally draw, given they already have a 500 seater. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weren't Spartans, Edinburgh City and LTHV all sharing for a year when it turned out Meadowbank wasn't ready? 3 or more has to be worked around already. Airdrie's ground has to deal with SPFL (Airdreonians), LL (Celtic B), WoSFL (Glasgow Uni), SWPL (Celtic Women) Edited April 30, 2023 by FairWeatherFan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing this isn't a new club problem but an existing one. These hints about Hearts B moving out? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HibeeJibee Posted April 30, 2023 Author Share Posted April 30, 2023 Only triple shares have been... Annan/Edusport/Annan SOS in 2017-18 & 2018-19; Spartans/LTHV/Edinburgh City last season; Airdrie/Celtic B/Glasgow Uni since last season; Stenhousemuir/Syngenta/Queen's Park this season.

LongTimeLurker Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Great forward planning on the placement of that floodlights pylon and they still haven't figured out that you need to raise the stand to give seated spectators a decent sight line especially if one of the dugouts is in the way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye would have been better if they didn't have the floodlight no quite sure why they have so much pylons surely could have had the same number of lights with less. Sure I heard the dug outs are getting moved back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
