There's no going back. We will deal with any court costs easily. We will win the league at a canter. We will spit in the face of the one (or two) teams passing us on the way down next May. I'll will only ever rejoice at the problems faced by any other club in the country (bar PT and ICT). Beers will be consumed for all and any clubs who teeter on the brink. If they fold, the champagne gets opened. What goes around comes around. The bad blood between us and the others excites me. Bring the fu***** on!

Anyway, you would think that the SFA would be looking to heal rifts and try and draw a line under all of this. Any normal organisation would - however this is the Glasgow Mafia.

maroonlegions Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 We threw the stone. We utter the words of not lying down. We took the occasion We took the time. We done all of these four things and we got nothing back. But we tried them all and that in itself shows we have character, integrity, and a willingness to stand up to the bullies knowing others were just watching us getting our heads kicked in by the bullies.

I don’t think a suspension would stand up in the courts either, and even Lord Clark questioned the legality of it I think if Anderson is backing us financially through this that we need to take it as far as possible, and for me this case needs to be heard outside of the corrupt SFA/SPFL And budge did say we reserved the right to apply for the interdict if we were left with no other choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wavydavy Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 1 hour ago, Silverwolf said: Never posted on here before. Just watched with interest. This judgement however makes me feel I should speak out. The reality is that there was no potential upside whatever the outcome of the arbitration. Win or lose, fundamentally nothing was ever going to change. The duopoly is going to persist. The next generation of fans will continue to be drawn towards the old firm (no child wants to go to school supporting a club that only makes up the numbers). The money therefore flows to the ugly sisters and the status quo persists. For goodness sake....9 in a row tells anyone all they need to know about the state of the competitive game in Scotland. I spend a lot of my work time down south. Its embarrassing. Sadly, there is no way Scottish football will change. In the US, they employ a draft system to ensure that there is ongoing healthy competition in Football, Hockey and Baseball. Fundamentally, they recognize that the competitive nature of the game drives the fan base and ultimately the wealth of the sport. The EPL is the best example in world football. What a spectacle. A range of winners over the last 30 years or so. In contrast, in Scotland, the fans are taken for granted as the whole system is myopic. Sadly, for me, as for an increasing number of people in Scotland, I am giving up on the mickey mouse, Scottish game and watching the EPL. I do not find it fun watching the slow, inevitable decline of the game north of the border. If Hearts decide to jump ship and join the English pyramid system then I will be back. They would do well there. A pretty accurate summary of where Scottish Football is and you are quite possibly correct in suggesting that it will not change. Where I disagree with you though is that I see what you highlight as a means to spur me on to try and make the club I support and always will to be even stronger and challenge those at the top. Hearts have a big fan base and can make that even bigger by sticking together and continuing to contribute via FOH and season tickets, buying club merchandise and using all the hospitality facilities as much as possible. With the right management and the funding we have at our disposal we can challenge them despite their attempts to knock us back. If you want to give up and help fund the likes of Sky Sports then that is your choice but it wont be mine as I will be out there cheering on my team and not giving up.

PapaShango Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I'm totally scunnered with Scottish football. All the other clubs who let this happen are just as culpable as the SPFL. The SFA are a disgrace, the governing body in this country and in effect all they have done is sit back and watch. All other clubs may have a laugh today, but their turn will come. Hibs for one seem to have forgotten their form was atrocious for months before the break and hopefully that continues. How we would laugh if they were the ones we pass next year.

RangersFanInPeace Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Apologies if people don't want to here from a Rangers fan but we have a few contributors from elsewhere on our forum and I enjoy reading from other perspectives. From a selfish point of view I'm glad some other clubs are becoming aware of the corruption within our game. It is however sad to see so many Hearts fans saying they are done with Scottish Football and won't be attending away games. This is a common theme amongst Rangers supporters and whilst I understand the sentiment I hate to see it and makes me worry about the future of our game. Well done for at least challenging the ridiculous decision to relegate you and good luck for the season. I'm sure you will be back soon stronger than ever.

I totally understand and respect your position. I just do not like playing cards when the deck Is stacked against me. If we want a different result, we need to change some fundamentals. The continued drop off of the fan base in Scotland will, I suppose eventually lead to some slow change. Probably too late. That is why we need to investigate the possibility of joining the English pyramid set up. (Separate thread). It has two advantages. 1. We play in a league system that would allow Hearts to fulfil their true potential (given time). 2. The act of jumping will force reconstruction of the Scottish game and governance structure.
