No fight from the owner,no fight from the team.

 

Only people connected with HMFC who have shown determination is the fans.The sooner the FOH take over the better.

 

Good riddance to her.

I don’t trust Budge any longer. I was expecting her to bin these mugs but I am not sure this will happen now.

brutal from budge. 


I really didn’t get that impression.  
 

I got the impression she was confident the vote/relegation won’t happen and for that she probably didn’t want to come across badly on Sky with threats etc, when there’s so much else going on in the world.  I would be hugely surprised if she has any kind of give up attitude.  I would still be for the club deciding not to vote at all tomorrow also.

I'm really hoping this is the case.  Really out of character for her to chuck the towel in.

The guys correct how he feels and is right saying it !       Its shocking how this has came about ,, certain people should be rightfully embarrassed....

Agreed its an absolute disgrace it's come to this.  We need to get rid of clowns like Budge and replace them with ambitious people who actually care about the club.

I hope you’re right, just didn’t seem like it to me.

Will be massively disappointed in our board if they do not show the fight that we, the support expect of them, they should be trying to unite us and stand with us , I really don’t recognise our club sometimes 😔

I would take it on the chin, IF every other league in Europe did the same thing. I have a feeling we will be one off the few teams relegated Europe wide.

Just in time for the Befred Cup group stage.

 

Noting also a new sole tv rights owner in Premier Sports.

This is all about tv money. Most leagues would bin this cup next season.

Budge has identified the best way to fight this is to ensure it gets voted down she needs to get people on side not stamp her feet.  If the clubs vote for a league proposal then I don’t see how it can be challenged legally(I’m not a lawyer though!)

There is a poll to express your wishes on this. @davemclaren closed it to comments last night for some reason, so it looks like the thread is closed to votes too, but it isn’t. Be good to let anyone from the club looking in know how the fans feel.

If we are voted down by conpetitor clubs then I'm done with Scottish football. 

 

Taking the maroon glasses off, the Product is shite and only exists to accommodate 2 clubs. 

 

Not worth the emotional or financial input. 

 

 

That goes for me as well.

At least one @HMFC01 was a mistake due to my incompetence in creating a contradictory thread title and poll question.

If we are relegated, she needs to be gone instantly.

She should be fighting this tooth and nail. Absolutely disgraceful that she's taken us to this point in the first place.

A procession of duds. The recruitment has been appalling & needs rooted out.

She still owns the club due to her holding the majority shareholding until the FoH deal us completed.

I've been one of Mrs Budge biggest backers but I totally agree with you if we are relegated and she doesn't fight it till the death she needs to go straight away because that would be an absolute disgrace

A lot of folk on here gonna have to swallow it when the vote goes against the SPFL

 

To me, Ann has canvassed all the clubs in the top league and is confident it will be voted in our favour unless the SPFL up the anti and hold clubs to ransom

through the courts as far as it will go, try and block the start of the new season encourage fans to take positive action against teams throwing us under a bus. It doesn’t actually matter if we win, we just need to hurt teams as much as we can

If you think this will result in us staying in the Premiership your head is very much in the sand.

Pretty sure we could find the cash to fund it. A lot of supporters would chip in, and there would probably be some with deeper pockets than most kicking about as well.

We are looking at a leader who is old, tired and out of touch. She is not representative of how I feel or most of the Hearts fans I know. If this had happened when Mercer was in charge we would be lawyering up and publicly threatening the authorities not hoping for the best and then lying back and taking it when the inevitable happens. Not fit for purpose and hasn't been for some time.

I see. You might be right but it's hardly something she could come out and suggest.

The club will have Legal advice and and so will the SPFL. This whole proposal has been engineered to pitch the clubs against each other and shut down the legal opportunities for the clubs who will suffer as a result. As Tom English has pointed this is all about protecting the TV deal, fairness and sporting integrity are not a priority. Anne Budge threating Legal action is not going to achieve much in these circumstances. I think the most disgraceful part of the propsal is adopting the points average, this is simply to justify shafting Partick Thistle.

I’ve been a very ardent supporter of Budge throughout. That interview is totally at odds with how I feel though. We should fight. 
 

Pinning my hopes on her confidence in the SPFL proposal being voted down not being misjudged. 🙄

She will, rightly, put the future strategy for the club first so my sons have a Hearts club to support when they are older and this becomes history. If and its a big 'if' if we are relegated through these unfair means it will make us more unified than ever next season to get them promoted. We were relegated a few seasons ago through admin and this time because it is an easy option.

What makes you think that no crowds would stop the start of a season ? Playing behind closed doors with a massive TV audience desperate for games is right up Sky’s street.

You think Hamilton v Livingston will draw a massive tv audience competing against 5 other SPFL games and likely 5 English Premier and 10 Championship games. 

 

Rochdale v Crewe etc etc etc.

 

That's the real world
