Was thinking the same. Not sure? Phone us and we'll persuade you? Aye right. On the plus side, I got an email from HMFC, and it had my name right for once. Frail and Berra always get my name wrong when they email me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horatio Caine Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 "..at Hearts,we know history is about to be made.." ??? What do they mean by that? Lowest ST sales in history? A glove puppet to be appointed as manager? (oh wait..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just out of curiousity - will Mark McGhee or his like come to Tynie because fans are not renewing? 8,000, 10,000 or 14,000 ST's will not make Hearts go out and get the manager we all want.

topcat Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Guid yin TC, surprised that there's not an option of not renewing til we sign the promised 2 world cup stars. That was "Press the Star key Twice". One can only speculate as to what inducements might be offered if you pressed the Hash key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you worried either way? Surely you have total faith in Vlad's choice regardless? And 8-10000 season tickets did okay for Levein who got Euro football and two third places out of it.

ToadKiller Dog Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 They sent out a similar email last time also,But i do imagine ST sales are very very slow ,the importance of it hurting them or not will depend how they have budgeted on expected income .

tonto Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Instead of wasting more of our hard earned money on a phone call everyone should reply by email saying no manager no ST even if you do intend to renew that might remind them who pays their wages and keeps the club going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterion Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 wonder if you can phone and renegotiate your ST like you can with mobile phones. wonder if they'll throw in a free home shirt/pair of tickets (for a friend) etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondejamtart Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Pfft....phone up, aye right, like I've been trying to contact them since the start of this season regarding my children's membership of the HYSC - and still without success!! I've managed to speak to someone once and subsequent letters and emails have all been ignored with the result that my son, in particular, now sees little point in renewing his ST when the club couldn't even be bothered to sort out their own mix-up over his and his sister's HYSC memberships, meaning they've both missed out on several events.
