EH4JAMBO Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Not true, the 2014/15 strip was only decided on a few weeks back. Infact the day of the sponsors evening was when the designs were finalised. I know this as solid fact. Yeah but I was talking about last seasons and this so two years then again it might have been the last umbro one and this seasons can't remember when I seem the quote from Lawrence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossthejambo Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 What's worse than posting questionable rumours, taking a hissy fit when people question said info.

Gregory House M.D. Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Did he mention whether next seasons kit will pay tribute to the 1914/15 team? Extremely poor show if it doesn't. Would love it if it was a Maroon top with a white collar, white shorts and Black socks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Romanov Saviour of HMFC Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 The guys who take care of the war memorial make it pretty clear that should be the one and only tribute, kind of agree, although I'm sure there is a statue being built at Tynecastle in time for the anniversary?

No cringeworthy strips plz. completely agree, it needs to be done with dignity not to milk it. The memorial was built to remember them, and every November (except for recent years due to Tram works) there is a ceremony at the memorial to remember them. Prehaps we can a special ceremony to commemorate their sacrifice at 100 years of the great war, but it has to be dignified and somber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah fair enough, absolutely comparable to fighting for your country. Anyway any memorial should be made in November, a season long remembrance, even with just a pair of black socks, although I'm not sure how that would show any sort of significance to random punters, does seem like a bit much to me.

Or them enlisting. There was a few events that happened in that season and in the wake of that season that are extremely meaningful to the history of Hearts. The opening of the current mainstand, the 8 game winning streak, the 20 game unbeaten run, the players enlisting en mass as well as a fair amount of fans. Then 2016 will mark the anniversary of the battle of the somme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
