Tokyo Drifter Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Finally, someone comes out and says something positive. https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hearts/aberdeen-manager-derek-mcinnes-says-relegating-hearts-terrible-decision-spfl-2863832 While I'm on the subject, top marks to Michael Stewart on Sportsound on Saturday for calling out the "hostility" being shown to Hearts at the moment.

Turkishcap Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 As my tic buddy pointed out to me after a rant re sevco on my fb page cos I shared an article by Tom English, "Rules are in place and have to be followed" Insightful as until this happened I had no idea TE supported sevco.

I remember Nicholas using his Sun or News of the World columns to plead that hearts play behind closed doors after jungle John brushed against Neil Lennon. It does seem more than a coincidence these three have came out in our favour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
