Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 5 hours ago, BobbyCox said: Hurting Scottish football indirectly hurts Hearts in the end. We as a country need to strengthen our game, not tear it apart. Aye convince yourself of that. Be significantly stronger for the death of around 20 clubs will include Dundee in that, better off as a 1 club city long term Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirky Jambo Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I would urge the club not to accept tickets to Starks Park. Only way buffoons like that Bill Clark guy will actually take note. Possibly the only way of effecting change is to create even more division between clubs who will eventually realise the status quo cannot hold (to quote the Rangers guy).

neilnunb Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Funny as **** seeing the Dundee fan on here moaning about our proposed boycotting. Christ, their own fans can barely be arsed showing up to Dens. Away and do one, tube. 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffundo Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Might have been stated as I've not read the thread from the beginning but can the club not stream the away games live and offer us the chance to pay to watch it through the club website? I'd happily pay £10 per game and I'm sure many others would too. It would serve the dual purpose of generating much needed funds for the club whilst starving the rest of the cabal from receiving any income from Hearts fans.

Ronald Villiers Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Ann should look into streaming away games back to Tynie. Get big screens on the pitch and on the pitches next to the distillery. Make a day of it with beer tents, food stalls, bands, bouncy castles for the kids etc and charge something like £10 an adult and £5 for kids. I reckon something like that would go down a storm during every away game. It would boost our coffers and hurt the other teams finances. There would likely be plenty room to socially distance aswell.

Troon Jambo Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Now more than ever is the time to get behind our team. I’d rather see Hearts fans show up in greater numbers than ever, show the class of our team and supporters and take the higher ground. Go out and destroy every team in front of us, take the injustice on the chin and come back stronger. Staying away to spite other clubs will hurt them but it will hurt our team too by missing the backing of a passionate and angry away support. We sting them by beating them all not by making a poor point financially. I hope most hearts fans see sense and feel the desire to get behind hearts to the full... forget everyone else.

Ex member of the SaS Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 The ones not wanting to boycott need to also see, the GFA will be trying to hammer us with a fine or whatever, The more cash into Hearts and out of the diddy clubs means we can ride this out, and be a much stronger club going back up. Use this season to rebuild and recuperate, and hopefully Robbie can get better players, and be in a better position to take the Premiership by storm when we do eventually return.

Once the fixture list is confirmed, get the away games up on a thread and highlight the clubs to boycott, add in quotes or comments in the media from them, Nelms, Lachlan, Clark etc. Drive it home how they voted and what they said about it, make sure this doesn't just fizzle out as there is a danger it could. People talk big sometimes. If there are 3 clubs undeserving of boycott, highlight that as well. A bit of focus is better than just saying "everyone apart from ICT".

Boab Mugabe Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Does anyone have an email address for the Club and for the Federation of Hearts Supporters clubs? As the club’s ticketing system is via eTickets, there should be an easy way of creating a ‘donate a ticket’ event which all proceeds can go towards the club. I’d happily buy the cost of a ticket for Hearts coffers in lieu of attending any of these grounds from every club in the league bar ICT. Crucial to the success of any boycott is getting official backing from these bodies and either Hearts or FoH offering a mechanism where a donation can be made in place of the cost of a match ticket. Hearts could also help by either declining allocations for away grounds or not advertising we have tickets for these away grounds to sell.

Pilmuir Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 There is a case for getting properly organised and have say 3/400 fans go to the boycott grounds. This way we still support the team but hit the bad guys in the pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned on another thread that Hearts should charge a £10/15 admin fee on every away ticket sold. Either keep the funds ourself or share it with Thistle and Stranraer, not that it will be a large sum of money. That would certainly send a message as well as dissuading any Hearts ‘fan’ who might be tempted to buy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SectionDJambo Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Just listened the Sportsound podcast. When Craig Levein dropped the wee bombshell that Hearts fans were talking about boycotting grounds, not just Raith Rovers in particular, Clark said that that would be sad. What wasn’t emphasised was that one of the aims of this is to compensate Hearts financially, by giving Hearts our money, instead of the clubs who voted to demote us, and then showed absolutely no decency in trying to create a environment where serious talk of reconstruction would happen. Clark seems to have completely missed the financial cost that this is going to cost Hearts, and can’t understand why Hearts or Hearts fans might be upset about this. He maybe needs someone to explain the realities of shafting the third biggest club in Scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coupled with the fans groups refusing to charter buses the impact should be decent.

There are fans who go to every away game through thick and thin who probably don't want to line the pockets of greedy chairman but still want to follow the team. Would be unfair to suggest these fans are wrong for wanting to do that. Let the 3 or 4 hundred or so go and that will still hurt the clubs massively.
