The club is missing a management team that will get us playing great attacking winning football. Our fans are ready they're just wanting what they deserve ......winners. Nothing wrong with Saturday's football. Even without our best player we were the better team against a side assembled for millions. Hopefully, we wil get over the line next May.

It's never going to be like that on a wet Tuesday night in February against Hamilton as we battle for 6th. Why can’t it be but? There’s not one reason it can’t be like that. The state of Tynecastle atmosphere at the moment is nothing short of shocking. Your meant to go and get right behind your team and give the team your full backing. Make every week like a cup final in terms of atmosphere. Not like a funeral like it is at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t care for those who say it’s had it’s day. No other song in our songbook gets the support roused and is sung with such gusto. A huge part of my Hearts supporting life and I’m utterly delighted it got the airing it did. Fantastic. Long may it be here. You’re dead right. Proud traditions and all that.

Got to agree , what happened 20 plus years ago has no relevance today , but if people insist on singing it we all need to be aware of reasonable lyrics , the Killie boys version is what I’ve always sung replacing Ayr with Hibbees . Even then up to your knees in anyone’s blood is fairly offensive , but tribalism is part of the game . I’m not defending sectarianism/ bigotry but Celtic brings the worst out of opposition fans it’s got better over the years but the crowd mentality means people act totally out of character, it’s the keyboard warrior syndrome they believe they are invisible . Someone posted about arrests at Haymarket station off the train and one lads realisation the shit he’d got himself in . It will take time but if individuals singing sectarian songs were targeted and visibly removed I believe it will quickly come to an end within the ground .

But she continues to stifle our proud traditions of intolerance and ill will. What has she ever done for the club anyway? Well said. What next asking Budge for some leeway over her stifling stance on racism, maybe if she allowed some abuse of black players, even if only Celtic and Hibs ones, the atmosphere at Tynie would surely improve.

Bindy Badgy Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 The 'Celtic Boys Club' 'paedo' stuff bothers me far more than Hello Hello. Childhood sexual abuse is disturbingly common (statistics here) so chances are everyone in the ground will be within earshot of someone who has been affected by it in one way or another.

Which is what our fans have become at Tynecastle. Expecting just to turn up and beat "diddy clubs" and when we're not 2-0 up at half time playing like Brazil decide it's better to boo the team. The lack of atmosphere is absolutely nothing to do with Ann Budge, it's everything to do with the expectation of the fans and how bothered/interested they are in the game. It's been like that for the 25-30 years I've been going to Tynecastle. Unless we're playing Hamilton or Livingston to win the league or get a European place the atmosphere against teams like them will be pap. In fact, outside Hibs, the Old Firm and Aberdeen (occasionally) the place is flat because we expect to win. The atmosphere was amazing on Saturday but that was a mixture of it being a cup final, being huge underdogs and alcohol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
