They are not unconnected problems, in many cases it's the toxic masculinity and desperation for an identity amongst the young that the older fascists and groomers are exploiting. The most dangerous fascist in this country is targetting our fans and our club. It undermines us. It shames the club as it does McCraes Battallion. Let's split the younger impressionable fans from the hardcore groomers and tommeh fanboys. And make it clear we are not that kind of club nor will fans tolerate this behavious.

Nowhere near as tragic as the ***** trying to align HMFC with the SDL, Rangers songs and Tommy Robinson. When the bar has been set that low, I don’t think there’s an awful lot that I can ever find tragic from Hearts supporters again. Sad but true.

Not meaning to knock it either as I like the look and feel; just the alignment etc is a bit...well, misaligned. @maroonleith there will be others much better at it than I am but more than happy to help out on flyer creation if it is of use. Also happy to pitch in towards printing costs. Sadly, I'm not able to attend enough games to really help out with the actual flyering. Good on you for getting something up and running.

BobbyJenkins Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Quite right re the flyers, good one you. Those who align themselves with SDL and other arseholes of that type can get to **** from Tynecastle, society and basically the planet earth imo. Utter twats.

Maybe that message is getting a little lost under the gross weight of arseholery coming from the spangles in our support nowadays? You were always going to get a reaction to stuff like that. That’s the way these things work. A significant rise in political activity from one end of the spectrum always causes a reaction from the other.

They're going to show that many Hearts fans don't like our club's name being dragged through the mud by association with these ****ers and that nasty ideologies are not intertwined with Heart of Midlothian, despite what some want the world to believe. This is partly a message to Hearts fans, partly a message to the outside world. You don't need to approve, in fact if you feel strongly about it you could get some flyers printed up!

I agree 100%. Except Tommy Robinson is not a Hearts fan and he is coming solely to promote his political beliefs, not to support the team. If he turned up incognito, enjoyed the game and then went home then nobody would be any the wiser - but we all know that is not the reason for his planned jaunt.

busby1985 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Wanna make a statement when or if Robinson comes to tynie, save the flyers and follow the Luton’s fans example and batter him. If you want to make a statement, wait till you see him and then confront him and his cronies and get their baws booted or at least chase them, march them out of gorgie. That will get much more media exposure than some leaflets that will no doubt end up being mocked all over social media. The green brigade talked the big talk about running Robinson out of glasgow when he came to visit and when push came to shove, they embarrassed themselves and made Robinson look like the big man cause they stood at the other side of the road shouting at him when they said they’d run him out of town. Leaflets aren’t going to stop Robinson and his like clinging to our club. Leaflets will just merely pander to their right wing beliefs that people on the left are soft and easily offended.
