Both groups are still Hearts supporters and I think their choices should be respected.

soonbe110 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 1 hour ago, Berra than you said: Yeah very true. I feel for the smaller clubs a bit, with the fact Doncaster linked that first vote with the cash being released. Second vote on recon for me was a chance to see who really believes in sporting integrity. For example, if Arbroath did vote for reconstruction, shows they only voted us down initially so they could get their money. However as you point out, we will never know. Or, as I believe quite a few did, they voted in favour of recon knowing it had no chance of success. Why? So that they could get back in our fans favour and get a decent away crowd at their ground. That’s exactly what Dunfermline did. Their guy was a key player on the SPFL board in terms of drawing up the original proposal, did all he could to persuade Dundee and ICT to support it then made it public that they had supported recon. As two-faced as they come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Chat Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 3 hours ago, Dagger Is Back said: The game has been in dire need of emergency surgery for decades, and given the percentage of people per head of population who pay good money to follow their clubs, it should be in a far healthier position than is, and the fans are being short changed both domestically and internationally Those who run our game have had ample opportunity to drive change but sadly very few of them either have experience of the 'customer journey,' or have been so seduced by all the trappings that a nice Boardroom lunch and a padded seat for their fat arses brings, that they've forgotten their roots and upbringing. In many cases they also lack basic business acumen and disastrously in this day and age, treat their customers as some kind of mobiel cash machine Vlad tried to push change but the cockroaches all scuttled under their rocks to avoid any potential nuclear fallout. In 2014 they even had the brass balls to invite Barry Hearn to one of their cosy wee get togethers, before no doubt sampling fine cuisine and wines. Apparently they laughed when Hearn said he didn't know anything about Scottish football and that judging by the latest set of financial accounts, either did they. Oh ho they laughed. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/30324888 Doncaster who has been at the helm for 7 years and in those 7 years has taken in the region of £2.5M from our game, decided that a visit to the dentist for root canal treatment was more important. His performance since his appointment show that he would have been well advised to attend and listen to what BH had to say - he may well have learned something. In saying that Mr Smug, Mr Teflon, whatever you want to call him would probably have sat and sniggered away like the rest, looking at his expensive watch and wondering when the smoked salmon and cucumber canapes would be served. Has the well being of our game improved since then? Not in my eyes. Do fans still turn out in their thousands every week throwing hard earned money at their favorites? Yes. In 2019 Scotland once again came top of the fans per head of capita league tables in Europe. Unbelievable loyalty from a success starved nation where one club has now won 8.75 titles in a row So, back to your point. A boycott from Hearts fans will indeed hurt Scottish football, I sincerely hope it does. Will it hurt Hearts, I don't think so. We should see an increase in regular and one off pledges to the FOH. Beambacks where available will be sold out I'm sure, as Jambos do what we always do, back our club We've tried to push change and the cockroaches have scuttled off when the heat got too hot. If THEY want change then yellow bellied snakes like Cormack and Clark can bloody well grab that particular thorn and drive it themselves If Hearts fans hurting Scottish football nudges us along the road to change then that is fine by me, and by the sounds of it, lots of others The medicine may not be to their liking but some are about to receive very large dollops of it.

So while Hearts are being shafted to the tune of millions of pounds, partly because the clubs in the Championship wanted the gate money that Hearts could generate for them, you are more than happy for Hearts fans to give those clubs their money? Instead of helping Hearts overcome the severe financial hit that those clubs have happily dumped on us, by giving our club the money instead, you’re ok with letting their selfish scheming succeed? There was no need for the way this affair was handled. Hearts were far from certain to be relegated if the season had been allowed to end. No club should have been harmed in the way that us, Partick and Stranraer have been. Hearts will only have 14 home games to generate income next season, assuming spectators are back in some form. We have been dumped into a division which cannot even sustain a full season, by the clubs in that division. Far from trying to be “super fans”, Hearts fans supporting our club with our money, and taking a significant emotional dunt by not going to cheer the team on, will send out a message that we are not a soft touch to be buggered about with anymore. They have spent the last few months bad mouthing us and laughing at our punishment for being bottom, at the arbitrary date they suspended football. If you are a Hearts fan, and you turn up at these grounds, with your £25, that’s up to you, and I respect your choice. But don’t tell those who don’t turn up that their thinking is, somehow, childish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are, maybe, things that Hearts would like to do or say, as a result of this disgraceful affair. The club can’t expose itself to anymore punishment from an eager mob of spiteful and morally corrupt clubs. Hearts fans, on the other hand, can send a clear message that we’ve had enough of our club being kicked around, and there will be a price to pay by offending clubs. Not looking for preferential treatment, just fairness and an end to the seemingly relentless sarcasm and spite towards Hearts. I am of a mind, with a heavy heart, to send the message that I’ve seen and heard enough.

Us not going to away grounds doesn’t hurt our finances at all but shafts those who shafts us. no hearts supporter should be setting foot in an away ground in my opinion. I certainly won’t be. Are you serious? You want to stop Hearts supporters watching Hearts play! What is the official Heart of Midlothian FC position on this matter? If the JKB mob want me to not watch Hearts play ever again away from home in the league (unless they give dispensation) in the SPFL Cup & SFA Cup away or neutral venues then I think it will be hard for many to continue to support Hearts!

The club can’t expose itself to anymore punishment from an eager mob of spiteful and morally corrupt clubs. Hearts fans, on the other hand, can send a clear message that we’ve had enough of our club being kicked around, and there will be a price to pay by offending clubs. Not looking for preferential treatment, just fairness and an end to the seemingly relentless sarcasm and spite towards Hearts. I am of a mind, with a heavy heart, to send the message that I’ve seen and heard enough. I fully respect your feelings that you can set these things aside and give those clubs your money whilst cheering on our team. It’s been happening all my life, Scottish football is a cesspit and only exists for two Glasgow clubs. Nobody will take any notice or even care that several hundred don’t turn up to a Hearts away game. Anyway the ‘JKB boycott’ will not happen - whereever Hearts play there will be Hearts fans supporting them (COVID allowing) just like it’s always been!

OTT Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 6 hours ago, Smith's right boot said: Even our Ann says we are at war. We can't fire missiles! We can start a trade war, even for a short period. Championship clubs would benefit hugely from a winning Hearts side and our support filling thier coffers. Give the money to Hearts, even for the short term, makes a point and also help the club in what is a financially perilous time for us as well. I have no illusions of this lasting years and years, but we should all understand the importance of not only hurting those that hurt us but also helping Hearts at the same time. Agreed. Its unsustainable long term. People will eventually cave but for the short term its doable. Eventually normality will return but until then, making sure these spineless clubs feel some pain will give us some feeling of justice.

pablo Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 @Jambo-Fox You aren't half talking some shite about this. It's almost like you live hundreds of miles away and have a flimsy grasp of the situation or the mood of the support If you want to go to an away game, go. You don't have to justify your decision for attending. You're not going to convince anyone to change their mind. Get to many away games, do you?

Support it. Open your wallet. Start an FOH pledge if you dont have one. Renew your season ticket or get one if you dont have one. My son has a new Hearts training top. Buying merchandise helps. Following us in the newspapers is no help at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a line has been crossed this time, and it won’t just be a JKB boycott. I could be wrong, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
