I’m seriously tempted to cancel my direct debit until there’s change. Can’t just sit back and have the urine extracted constantly whilst being expected to fork out our hard earned all the time. Cancelling FOH payments is not going to help, the whole point of FOH is to take control of the club. If anything, we should increase payments to obtain control quicker. If we want to use FOH to get the message across, then we should be contacting FOH to raise our concerns and ensure that the FOH rep on the Board is properly representing the views of the members.

Diadora Van Basten Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 We had to wait until Motherwell fans started singing sacked in the morning to join in and in your heart of hearts you know he will still be here for the rest of the season.

mitch41 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Yes it will cost the club money to sack Levein & his Boot Room but Ann Budge needs to realise it will cost Hearts a helluva lot more if she doesn't sack them. Levein will not resign so it's up to the fans now to come up with ideas to pressurise the board into sacking the teams management. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. I'm not sure what folk think their FOH money is doing. By all means stop buying match tickets, strips, pies, programmes etc if you want to make a point to the current board, but stopping the FOH payments actually has the opposite impact, as it means Ann Budge will be in charge for longer.

SMJ_1874 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Will any of the said posters who’ve cancelled their FOH DD’s, back date any missed payments when CL finally goes? Or do you just start up again with a clean slate? Would be nice hear a statement from FOH to reveal how much we are actually losing per month due to poor performance related cancellations.

Jammy T Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 So basically fans are taking the huff and cancelling FOH subs and effectively walking away from financial support of that the FOH needs to make the club fan owned when they might just have more influence to do what they are moaning about when it is fan owned. ****ing dense behaviour and just like Rangers fans walking away when they did.

I kick myself for arse licking Budge when she first came in. I met her at Edinburgh airport and literally brown nosed her for 5 minutes. Thanking her for everything etc. I'd cross the street to avoid her now. She is a 71 year old lady so I would never be nasty to her in person. I just simply do not like the woman and oppose almost everything she now does at our club. I feel her vision does not belong on the same planet as a football one. Imo she is now purely using us to self serve her reputation. This is a vision for Ann Budge and not HMFC. We are very much her community centre.

I don’t go that far myself tbh, the club was literally bust when she came in, we didn’t even have a squad. All the stadium and financials are flying. But I believe that now is the time where we must see the ruthlessness which she must have once had to be a successful chief executive in business. One things for sure Levein is not resigning so it’s right to say, we all need to be looking at Budge to put aside their personal relationship, focus on the results, do the right thing and sack him.

I agree and personally my contribution is there for life. What I would say is that the FOH appear to be awfully quiet. There is definite concerns that they are that close to Budge that it’s not really any kind of fan representation. I might be alone here but rather than having to scroll through the clauses, documentation and the likes, it would be beneficial for the FOH to be more transparent and open about their intentions as well as giving the fans a voice.

I understand why anyone would stay away due to how bad we are playing but you can’t claim fans that went to the game, vented frustrations, left early & protested outside haven’t sent a message to budge. They certainly sent more of a message than you could sitting in the comfort of your own home. why don’t you go along to a game & take a granny budge out banner? That would send a message.

rick witter Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Enough is enough now. Everyone on here has had arguments why he should stay or go in the past but surely now we must all see that his position at the club is untenable. Even if we won the Derby or a few games it will always come back to wanting him out because of what we have witnessed for months on end. The whole coaching team needs to go aswell. We have a bad losing mentality throughout the club and need a completely new approach. If Levein moves back upstairs this will not change. If Budge will not act we need to show her by staying away, not using hospitality, not spending our hard earned cash watching that dross EVERY week. Every match is the same, the mistakes are the same. The players are not giving 100% for the cause either and that’s down to the fact they know they will play no matter how they perform. We are soft and unfit with injuries every single match we play. Its been the same for close to a year and that yesterday should be the final time we see that clown in charge of a Hearts team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick witter Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I agree it’s a last resort but I really can’t see us getting out of this with Levein in charge. She is just delaying the inevitable whether it happens now or in a month or 6 weeks from now. We will continue to be served up the same game after game after game that we have watched for the best part of a year.
