Better make it an RBS £100 note. Everything else is polymer now - could be messy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

par-adise Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 What are you guys thinking about the new stand? I thought the premise was great - much better than just bulldozing the old terrace and building a soulless new identikit all seater one. However I've seen a few photos and can't help but think it looks a bit odd. Are they planning any more work to improve what's left of the terracing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Imrie is more a Livingston, St Johnstone, Kilmarnock type manager where results are more important than style. I think Hibs would expect a certain brand of football that Imrie doesn’t offer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What else can they do with them? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If MCT wanted to do similar it's likely they'd probably need a loan to e.g. buy the Norseman so likely not a goer in the current time. But obviously when we genuinely were bankrolled, you had it properly bad: Up on the travel club bus with Cookie and co couple of pints in the Norseman sunburn, 3 points and a pitch invasion by the natives.

AUcal Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 One news article about us possibly attempting to sign a striker from a similarly sized championship club seems to have some of our Greenock cousins in a mess over us being minted. Whether its true or not, its quite pleasing. Possibly he expected a better deal than he had been on last time round after a very good season, and Morton haven't been able to meet it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s very likely that it’s been leaked to the press in a bid to get Morton to up the offer. We don’t leak stuff or tell anyone anything. Brown is on holiday and if he’d signed, we’d have announced it by now. I’m pretty sure it’s just his agent playing silly buggers 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VT is an arrogant waffling p***k at the best of times, but an unconvincing transfer rumour might have just pushed him over the edge this morning. 10/10 will frequent forum more often 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scosha Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Does your new stand have space for TV cameras? Had a look at a photo of it and can’t work out where they’d go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would seem to be a major oversight if BBC Scotland still need to park a crane out the back for live games. Can't imagine that will be the case. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Airdrie game a few weeks ago was on Tv and they used that stand. Might not be possible when it’s fully operational though. might be back to the cherry picker up the back of the main stand. It was always fun watching Scottish cup highlights while the camera is getting blown about on a platform. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's for the camera, it's a single pane where the others are two and it's positioning is different to the rest. It'll open fully inward or something and the camera through it for broadcasting. Edited May 14 by itzdrk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
