crunchy frog Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Please be joking, tell me you aren't trying to imply folk are jealous that their poorly spelt name isn't on the mingin' top in miniscule text Ok then you're not jealous. The thing doesn't particularly light my candle and I wont be wearing it but it's still a nice bit of memorabilia, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hughesie27 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Great gesture but looks terrible. For the folk asking what they should have done: In what way is this different to what we have done? More advertising space? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego10 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Yes. Having seen some of the other tribute strips I'd have thought we could've produced something a bit less blah. Still.... Worth pointing out that Parma only had 600 ST holders though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego10 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Point is they didn't need to use the dark text and make it look like an untuned tvTrue, but given the much smaller text it gives them fewer options to make the names stand out and make them all visible. I don't actually think it's that bad tbh, looks alright in the shop window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Currahee! Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I have more than enough points as I pledge ?40 a month. I'll also be quite near Rudi.

HMFC86 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Looks a bit rubbish close up, but think the further away ones look quite smart.

rubyruby Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I imagine that hibs will attempt to copy us by having a 3rd strip to honour the 1st 500 giro jakies to donate to the alan stubbs needs new eyes fund or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Stinkfinger Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Looks brilliant and just as expected, they should have made it reversible with no names on the inside for all the thickos that didn't expect it to look like that.

Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Honestly don't know what some people were expecting out of this. The meaning of it is far more important than the aesthetics (which aren't even that bad anyway). It's a chance to have your name on an official Hearts piece of kit as a thank you for saving the club. That alone is good enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Sifter Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Imagine wearing the names of all those arseholes. It's FoH names tho, not Kickback. ...or is FoH for arseholes too now? ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 It's FoH names tho, not Kickback. ...or is FoH for arseholes too now? ;-) True. Probably at least an 80% crossover though.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I'll buy it, maybe wear it once and then retire it. It does look we will be wearing a newspaper, but the sentiment far outweighs the design, be surprised if many of the 8000 will be too disturbed. Is there somewhere you can see where your name is without entering the shop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecjambo Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Does anyone have any higher quality images of it? I want to check my names on it (got 360 points now and been contributing since near enough the start) before buying it. I'm living in Leeds so can't exactly pop into the shop! Any help would be appreciated. For what it's worth, I really like it. Good idea by Hearts and the Foundation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
