It was traditional in the claymores games for the fan to be introduced to the players !

When it comes to the amateur rugby grounds, the capacity is usually just dictated by whatever the club record attendances were. When Edinburgh played at Myreside, the ground only held around 7,000. Granted that they used temporary stands on the ends of the pitch

love Hibs and hearts grounds

I went to easter road in the 90's and the seats were so close together everyone over 4 feet tall was sitting side saddle. Pretty sure that stand is renovated now.

Lot of history behind these grounds, and the Glasgow ones too, more than many people realise. Murrayfield - 1st stadium to have undersoil heating. Easter Road - 1st stadium I actually had a clenched fist swapping experience at 😇 Hey Bruce, what happened to Goldenacre, Meggetland, Inverleith, Ainslie Park, etc.,

Great stadiums with beautiful names for Hibernian and Hearts. Thanks for these videos.

I really like your content, especially in Mediterranean part of europe for some reason

Stadiums of Greater Manchester pls

Have you done Belfast yet?

Hearts played at 4 other locations before moving to Tynecastle in 1886. Also the Gorgie stand does have one concession to space constraints. Though not quite a corner cut-off like the Fester Road stands the the number of seating rows is reduced at one end.. (Bottom right in the image shown)

aye more superb scottish stadiums

The Eleanor Rugby joke was great! Dad jokes done right I say. My fave is Murrayfield and Tynecastle but I'd pref Hibs for reasons...

If you're going to include Myreside for Edinburgh there's lots of similar stadiums you could have included for Glasgow eg Lochburn Park

can you do PSAC stadiums

Meadowbank?

They do exist, but play in the Scottish National League. Could argue whether or not they're the same club though, not really a continuation of the Elite League side.

@@rerooar Yeah just a recent thing, just completed their second season. Been getting very good crowds, given they're winning more often than in the EIHL days. I don't know about an Elite League return, but they have played in cross border cup competitions against teams from the NIHL (effectively UK second tier, far fewer imports) in the last few seasons and I think there's an appetite from some clubs to see the NIHL expand north. At the moment Solway Sharks are the only Scottish team in that setup. Travelling has always been the stumbling block.

It's because the SRU are reluctant on building permanent stands until they have a long term idea on supporter numbers, or at least that's the excuse. The majority of the £6 million went into the pitch and foundation work for potential renovation
