Went round that side tonight at Leith game and dugouts block the view of the goals. View was not goad at all. Also looks like some fans will be behind the goals which is a long way from the pitch. No chance I would be paying £18. Ground just does not look fit for league football. Edited August 3, 2022 by Jute 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, making the right choice to give this one a wide berth. Better using your £18 and going to see something decent at the Fringe if it's a day out in Edinburgh you're after. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No food but decent pints (10ish minutes to Meadowbank) Safari Lounge - on London Rd, no sport on TV but nice place, does pretty decent food (10ish minutes to Meadowbank) The Hoppy - on Marionville Rd, shows the early game, basically just a good football pub (2 minutes to Meadowbank) Limelite - Jocks Lodge, football and cheap (for Edinburgh) pints. (8ish minutes to Meadowbank) There are others obviously but I think any of the above would meet most of your needs. Hoppy for me I think. Do any of them do a pint of lager for under £4? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, it’s a new management team so maybe they could be more successful, I’m just not convinced it’s the best setup for us. Effectively trading shoehorning our forwards into a front 3, for shoehorning our defenders into a back 3. There isn't a single formation with the current group of players that doesn't force at least a few players into unsuited positions 12 hours ago, tamthebam said: Pars fans, your view awaits. (behind green barriers behind the dugouts) Enjoy. Medowbank continuing to be a shithole, I'm incredibly shocked. Hard to believe those that built an absolute dump of a ground with years of planning do also did a shit job with a rushed standing area. You would have at least thought they'd have put some banking in? 7 hours ago, Cardle is Magic said: Aye, making the right choice to give this one a wide berth.

Meadowbank was the scene of one of Jocky Scott’s fan-interactions. He simply flicked the V’s in response to abuse he was getting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always hilarious when supporters cry in outrage after calling someone every name under the sun. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A great, great player for us and a genuine legend. Aye, the mid to late 90s Pars tops were all pretty tremendous. Andy breaking the goalie's nose.

Suspect you are right and they will be behind the goals which will leave you with running track and high jump area between the fans and the pitch. The equipment boxes for the athletics will block part of the view if they are left where they were last night but not sure where they could be moved to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could just start doing box jumps, see who can get the highest, especially if (most probably) the game is dung. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
