gnasher75 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Sounds like we were very confident of winning on the basis of the evidence presented and are absolutely stunned that the panel ruled against us. Maybe Doncaster thought the same hence his "absolutely delighted" comment. There's nothing about what we might do next so maybe we are taking time to weigh that up with our legal team. There is clearly still a real sense of anger at the injustice but it is hard to see how the wrongs can be righted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say it is a careful statement - there may or may not be a reason for that other than the confidentiality provisions I've given up guessing - but why take 4 hours or whatever to come up with such a short statement? But its not shite - if you are bound by confidentiality you are bound by confidentiality. You cant "appeal" an arbitration per se so there would not be a battle cry (publicly) about this and we'd be advised not to What is interesting is that there was no comment about looking forward to the start of the season in October, and hoping fans rally round for the Championship season.

Wanting reconstruction is fine, wanting it for one season only, smacks of 'we just want a bigger league for one season to save ourself.'

18Jambo_dave74 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 "As a grassroots organisation, the Foundation of Hearts is ready and willing to join with those who care in seeking a better-led, better-organised future underpinned by integrity and vision". I''m sorry but this needs to stop. We do not "join" anyone for anything. Our sole consideration should be Hearts and nobody else. What is for the best for Scottish football no longer means a thing to me. Improving co-efficients, colts, reconstruction etc etc means not a thing anymore unless it is solely to our advantage. Helping Motherwell with their fan ownership stops. #Respecttherivalry stops. Showing clubs round our facilities stops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that smack of desperation, maybe in your eyes it does? The truth is we rolled over time and again on the pitch against shite like St Mirren and Hamilton, we'd have needed at least 2 more games against hibs to stay up and we only had to play them once more in the league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
