Cool. No need to get all upset about it, just a question. You made a comment about people not being there commenting on their actions, so I assumed you must have been there yourself. You also come across as a wee bit older than the young lads behind this group. Seemed a fair assumption for me to make. If you skim back on this thread you’ll see I have wished this group well right from the start. Get well soon mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a ticket but as I said, I have been unwell so didn’t make it, nor last night unfortunately. I would admit to being a wee bit older, but maybe not quite as old as the old fella in the photo...

LesJambes Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Regading the racist sectarian shite, how about for one game against Celtic or Hibs all the true jambos get the word out and only buy tickets in the Wheatfield and Gorgie Stand? All the ST holders might have to forego a match, but well worth it to make our point. When the club sees the Main stand nearly empty with only a few racist bigoted mini huns they'll take the hint and boot them out for good. What d ye think?

If you want the club to get on board I would change the graphic. Just my tuppence worth. I am in favour of a singing section fwiw Correct. It is a graphic to promote a singing section, suggesting it will be allowed, and the club, correctly, have made it clear that flares are not allowed.

Libertarian Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Like most Hearts supporters I am really supportive of this idea. However as has been mentioned it's vitally important for the image of the club that any singing section is self policed and policed well in order to ensure that the reputation of the club is not tarnished. It's also likely that Scottish Govt may attempt to bring legislation through holding the clubs directly responsible for the behaviour of their fans (strict liability). The last thing we want is to give the authorities the excuse to punish Hearts rather than the real perpetrators of sectarian bile, and we all know who they are.

Sarah O Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Flopped before it even started. Disappointing but not unexpected. Their social media presence was utterly chronic with posts that read like they were typed by a drunk elephant. They also actively promoted idiots trying to make HMFC look like Sevco FC before the humiliation of denying it even though the evidence was all there. They stopped posting on JKB a while back (I think) so no questions really got a proper answer. to conclude: daft kids failed in trying to create a singing section (official) because, well, they are daft!
