Just open the front of the Copeland stand until it’s ready the spiders played at Hampden when the renovation work was going on I was at a few games back then

Not that simple.  Safety certificates and part of the pitch not being there mean that's not an option.

Jeez! No health and safety then...!

Try these two for some steel.

When do you reckon we'll get a confirmation of venue change?

 

I'm not itk so maybe it's already unofficial.

 

Also the shite that the other mob are saying is geniunely mental. Deranged.

Ignore them.

 

What is more important is what our club are actually doing.

 

Sustained Incompetence at a number of levels. Our consistency in f**king things up is quite something.

 

It is a very difficult and challenging job that the board have. The remit has a supporting budget that makes it an uphill battle from the off. Measures to make our money go further have tended to backfire on us, in the football department as well as other areas.

 

John Bennett is a competent individual but the general situation is difficult.

Would a dozen games at Murrayfield hit us financially or would we break even?

 

If that's where we're playing.

Come back and ask when the venue and timescale is known. Hypothetical gut feel, loss.

 

It would be interesting to see if we could attract an attendance over the 50k mark at Murrayfield. Added logistics for many would make it a big ask IMO.

 

We played Hearts there once. Anyone remember the attendance?

 

Edit

Was a Hearts home game

Attendance 32,000

So they made extra cash that day to help cover the 4 matches (1 win) they played there in 2017 (work on a stand).

Aye, having the first OF at CP is unfortunate in that sense.

 

Not that it would cover the cost for all the games but it would do a fair bit.

We are taking it for granted that we will be playing in Murrayfield what if the good people of that district and nearby Corstorphine don’t wish a visit from some of the bad and stupid elements that follow follow and raise an objection with the council.

An alternative venue should have been in place by now .
