Lone Striker Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Well done and huge respect to all folks who have restarted or increased their monthly pledge - every little helps indeed. From the FoH info yesterday, that's probably around £2k a month extra their getting so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprinbox98 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I had let mine lapse at the end of last year for a variety of reasons. However today I signed back up, doubled the monthly donation, and made a one off donation. Actually feels pretty good to be doing so. Say we get a couple of hundred of extra pledgers (average of £15 each), and 500 existing pledgers up theirs by say an average of £7 each. That would be an additional £6.5k per month - almost £80k per annum on top of the amount already donated. You might not think an additional couple of pounds might make, but if everyone did a little extra then it quickly adds up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one think clubs can run both mens and womens professionally and whether it be 10 or 20 years womens football will eventually become lucrative to clubs. Maybe not our level but certainly english premier.

I agree that womens teams currently funded by established football clubs in Scotland will have to adjust to the new financial reality. In which case, isn't it likely to end up like Scottish rugby - an amateur sport played by loads of teams originally, then after the jump to professional it all settles down to just a very small handful of womens clubs scrambling to survive by hanging on to England's wealthier coat tails ?

If it is purely about survival then with our FOH money every month we are in a much better position than many clubs.

Independence Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 From BBC Scotland: Hearts will not face face financial ruin should their relegation from the Scottish Premiership prove final. The Tynecastle club were relegated from the Scottish Premiership on Monday after the season was ended early. But they continue to consult clubs over their plan for league reconstruction with a view to avoiding demotion. In the past week, there have been over 600 new pledges through Foundation of Hearts, while the club continue to have the backing of their benefactors.
