We've an overly ambitious main stand perhaps but wouldn't class any of them as "badly" designed. There is no where in the TFS which has a bad view IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the leg room is absolutely brilliant when you compare it to a lot of other grounds even with new builds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthStander1876 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Of course our stadium is streets ahead of the majority, my only point was I wish we, as fans were closer to the pitch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairn in Exile Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 I would love a scaled down Tynecastle - Fans close to the pitch, corners of the stadium filled in to "hold in" the atmosphere and noise, steep-ish seating to ensure fans have a good view. Nice. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthStander1876 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 I like it for the interaction with players. Banter with the GKs on away days is usually good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Far closer to the pitch at Almondvale but TFS is a better stadium, can't have it all 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falkirkwheel Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 I loved how close we were to the pitch at Brockville. Players having to lean back against the advertising boards to take a throw-in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
