Letting others dictate how you live your life like that is not smart. Each of these clubs will have dictated which stadiums we will be going to next year by voting us out of the top league.

SectionDJambo Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 It is, of course, every Hearts fan’s right to decide for themselves whether to go to any away ground, once they open up again. I, personally, intend to be picking and choosing. The only way I can see me deviating from this is if Hearts are given a proper amount of compensation from the SPFL, that negates the financial damage to our club. My current feeling is that most of the clubs we will be playing against, when we eventually get started in front of spectators again, are happy for us the take the financial hit at a time when all the clubs should be sticking together, to get as many through this crisis as possible. Many on here have been banging on about how soft Ann Budge has been in dealing with the SPFL and other clubs, individually. How she has had the wool pulled over her eyes and been played by those clubs. Now we have talk of Hearts fans giving those clubs their money, when it could go to help Hearts recovery from this farce. I would hope that those who are happy to give those clubs their money, aren’t also of the opinion that Ann Budge has not done enough with them, to prevent this expulsion.

They have had about three sell outs against in the rebuilt Easter Road EVER, you know that and contradicted your first point because you know it’s nonsense. I don’t think we would refuse an allocation as there will always be fans who want to go, but if it’s 500 then that’s costing them a lot of money. They then couldn’t drop the prices to try to encourage more Hibs fans out of the pubs. How many times in the last few years have teams with a few hundred fans come to Tynecastle and either played us off the park or left with all three points.

Rules can be changed, if such a rule exists. Potentially, a bigger problem exists as how to run the loyalty points scheme, should a significant number of fans decide they won’t go to away games on the principle of not financing those clubs who have shafted us. Possible solution is loyalty points in return for a donation being given to Hearts instead of gate money to the home club? Need to be careful with taxation, I would imagine, if a donation is linked to a reward, even as small as loyalty points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 According to Ann Budge it is the fear of upsetting Sky that has motivated other clubs to distance themselves from reconstruction. Therefore I believe all Hearts supporters should cancel Sky Sports and make it known that we are doing so because it seems that Sky are partly responsible for us being ejected from the top league. We won’t get much from the contract if we are in the championship and we won’t appear on the programme either. Why should our monies go to the very clubs that have shafted us? Instead we should subscribe to Hearts TV and give the balance to the Foundation. I have Sky Sports on pause and have increased my FoH subs by the amount saved. Lets all commit to this and if we get thousands of Hearts fans doing the same maybe we can make an impact. What do you think? Should Kickback make this a cause celebre?

We always get loyalty points for away games and I can't think of any game where anyone 'going to the game with a ticket' will pay more than £30.00. That way we would be seen to be supporting Hearts, rather than those away teams.

sac Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Don’t see it as a boycott but more a redirection of funds towards financially helping our club through a period where our income will drop dramatically by being expelled to the championship. We should show our own self interest here by pumping every penny each individual can realistically afford into HMFC without putting ourselves & family‘s finances at risk. Giving away day match day income to clubs who contributed to our expulsion whether it be through their own self interest, or for the reason the vermin did, just does not sit right with me. Only, & always Hearts first, will be my primary concern for the foreseeable future. FTSPFL & FTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

north wales jambo Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 As someone who does not live local, or has any ties as such to Edinburgh/Scotland I appreciate there are many thousands of fans to. Which Hearts mean more to As a family, or sometimes friends we usually get to about 10 games a season. Away days were chosen for new grounds to visit and to increase our loyalty points. My point on this and it’s just my view, I won’t set foot in another away ground whilst this unjust shambles carries on, how hearts can be expelled from a league, whilst said league is only about 75% complete is a farce. People should forget we’re bottom, forget ratio of points to games played there were still 24 points to play for. I agree with a previous poster, yes Ann Budge has made mistakes, we all have opinions of what they are, but why give for example Dunfermline upwards of £60,000 whilst clubs like this are prepared to vote yes on an spfl farce. Of course know one knows when football with fans will resume, but going to East end park twice in a season would give that club over £120,000, think of that people. Now I see some fans and it is there right to say it, that they would still go to away games to support the team, me personally I’d rather go to Tynecastle with a hostile atmosphere with a sense of wrongdoing against us and provide support for the team that way. Whoever is the manager at the time should utilise some of the local players and other lads and drum it into them the need to man up at away grounds dig in and get results.

I’m another one for the student ticket when possible, amazing that it’s taken me 10 years to get my honours 🤔 In terms of what we do to punish the SPFL, I have no idea. It’s just one of those things, I think most of Scottish footy all is unanimous in thinking that the people running it are backwards but you can’t really change it. Like when Edinburgh City Council do stupid things. We all know they are diddies, but the system isn’t adept to change or innovation so we end up with the same shite. If you look at it rationally there isn’t much of a case for putting your money into Scottish football, it’s fundamentally broken. It is what it is, I’ve long accepted that so just going to enjoy it where possible (although Hearts make it very difficult). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just one of those things, I think most of Scottish footy all is unanimous in thinking that the people running it are backwards but you can’t really change it. Like when Edinburgh City Council do stupid things. We all know they are diddies, but the system isn’t adept to change or innovation so we end up with the same shite. If you look at it rationally there isn’t much of a case for putting your money into Scottish football, it’s fundamentally broken. It is what it is, I’ve long accepted that so just going to enjoy it where possible (although Hearts make it very difficult). Absolutely. In my mind though lets just act like the others have and look after our own interests by giving the club more money, hopefully it will be more enjoyable whenever it comes back.

We should show our own self interest here by pumping every penny each individual can realistically afford into HMFC without putting ourselves & family‘s finances at risk. Giving away day match day income to clubs who contributed to our expulsion whether it be through their own self interest, or for the reason the vermin did, just does not sit right with me. Only, & always Hearts first, will be my primary concern for the foreseeable future. FTSPFL & FTH correct Just incase people forget we are going to be down 3 million because of this sham. Meanwhile the likes of Hibs and Aberdeen will be going from strength to strength. Yeh it’s all well and good skooshing the championship but when we come back are you happy with bottom 6? Are you happy losing derbys? Hibs will be able to afford better players than us. Unless of course we recoup some of the money we have lost. If you would prefer to give that money to Dundee and Dunfermline rather than make hearts financially sound for our return to the premier league then that is on you. Don’t moan when Hibs are pipping us to players. Suck it up for one season ffs ps I suggest we cut Hibs allocation anyway when we get back they have had their last day out in Gorgie Edited May 10, 2020 by Rods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being complicit in justifying their decision isn’t smart in my opinion. A football match involving Hearts is like any other football match. You go to support Hearts, who really cares about anything else all said and done. If its SPL games or Championship games then it's 90 minutes of supporting your team no matter where the games are played....in my opinion. If legal action is commenced, can't really see how it will fail to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rods Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 The folk on here dying to away games are the same folk who will be greeting when Hibs pip is to a player as they have more money. Its simple do you care about Hearts long term future or a jolly up in Dundee or Dunfermline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
