JasMc1973 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Hampden is a terrible football stadium (by modern standards)....but it has that aura about (or is that just a reek o pish) - can't wait to get back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hampden will Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I think we will go for the Iron Horse bus there and back next time..always the worst time of the day getting back after the game...usually knackered by that time....especially if we start at 9am...

ShedTA Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Noticed the north stand entrance has all been done up...for the Commonwealth Games...might be some differences inside also..Think it re-opens to football in January....looking forward to March... was there for the games. there is a new concourse above the pavement outside the north stand on pillars which provides food bars and toilets. was quite impressed with it as an improvement - didn't realise it was getting done. at least I assume its new? haven't noticed it before!

ParisInAKilt Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Then i would settle for four points in the two remaining ganes germany and poland at home. I'd do a deal with satan himself for those 4 points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robroysboy Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 I'd do a deal with satan himself for those 4 points Poland and germany are beatable but i expect the latter to come onto some form before they come to hampden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gala Tartan Army (Borders) Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 I went on Hampden Museum and the stadium tour on Monday and the new pitch looked in superb nick. Changed days from a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robroysboy Posted December 5, 2014 Author Share Posted December 5, 2014 I went on Hampden Museum and the stadium tour on Monday and the new pitch looked in superb nick. Changed days from a few years ago. Do we know if the original capacity will be reinstated ? Did they not sacrifise ( bulldoze) several front rows in the north, east and west stands to allow installation of the athletic track.

hannibal smith Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Was at Hampden yesterday and the pitch is indeed looking great.

kmcca5 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I hope the sort out the family stand after the debacle at Celtic Park. Spent two games with kids that couldn't see the game due to persistent standing and flag waving at totally random times. Drove me fecking nuts. We moved to empty seats in the end but all hut ruined the England game for the kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
