It was only when the media agenda swung wildly to favouring the C3 clubs that we wanted anyone to lose out. I get that and I fully backed every single action taken by HMFC to protect her interests and will continue to do so. But everyone is entitled to act in their own self interest. If you ran a business and thought there was an opportunity to cash in a sizeable windfall, you'd take it. I don't like it, but I get it. Quote

Frankly, I'm not going to take pelters from faceless accounts on Kickback because I have chosen to back the team regardless because that's what I want to do. This whole mess hasn't altered my views of those running the game in Scotland in the slightest. I thought they were cowboys then and guess what? I still do. I've decided that supporting Hearts is more important to me than sitting at home staring at the walls because someone on Kickback thinks he knows better. So if you don't like that, I suggest you **** off. 24 minutes ago, Sir Gio said: That says renew now. Meaning not renewed? Confused. See the bit that says 'Current Season Ticket Holder'?

It’s a bit cringeworthy that this debate is still going on. Some people will go, some people won’t. Can we save the pleading people not to go out? It’s rather sad. It's quite simple really. Reconstruction would have spread the additional financial pain amongst 42 clubs. The route they voted for lumped it all on 3 clubs. Trying to play to a finish (or at least not closing the door to that so early) could have avoided even the need for reconstruction. Not hard. I'm generally against boycotts if they could harm our own chances, but in this case it won't make much difference so why not? A boycott for certain teams so as not give them some extra cash, and instead to direct that money to our own club, is a very good idea. Dundee, Ayr and Raith for sure. The best way to fight back however is obviously to give every team a doing on the park. Edited August 1, 2020 by ToqueJambo Quote

But, hey, let's all just accept the simplistic narrative that clubs all voted in their own interests. Makes things much easier. Quote
