Kiwidoug Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 I can see the distinction between a cup game and a league game. Still troubles me that the majority of subscribers would be us, ergo we would be benefiting them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacerjoe Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Cup games have always been shared gates. When everyone decided to boycott away games, did they also decide to boycott every single cup game, even the home matches and any semi finals or finals? I very much doubt Tynecastle would be empty for a home cup tie against Hibs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DETTY29 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 (edited) Aaron78 Posted 22 hours ago Just a reminder from mid June for those considering paying for the stream: Hearts' league reconstruction proposal is "self-seeking" and a "non-starter", says Cowdenbeath chair Donald Findlay. The Tynecastle club want a 14-14-14 SPFL set-up for the next two seasons - a move that would spare them relegation from the Scottish Premiership. But Cowdenbeath are one of five sides in the bottom two tiers who have told BBC Scotland they will vote against it. Each to their own, but he won't be getting a penny from me. The sooner his sh*tey club dies the better 👍 ‐-----‐---------------------- Absolutely great spot. Stenhousemuir and Elgin chairs were on Sportsound previouslysaying L2 clubs UNANIMOUSLY agreed to stick together on a 14-14-14 basis. I started to swither, but if it's not on i-Sat no way. FOH contribution all the way. Edited October 9, 2020 by DETTY29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letsalldothebeattie Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 While I’m not happy about a club like Cowdenbeath benefitting from this financially after everything this summer and what that melt Finlay said. I don’t want to not watch Hearts. We are going to miss a load of games this season if not all of them due to this pandemic if paying a tenner to watch an away game is what it takes that’s what I’ll do. Given things are getting stricter and stricter from the government sitting in on a Saturday afternoon with a couple of beers watching Hearts seems like the only thing to do until we can get back to games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spellczech Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 I always wonder why JKB has not got a little box saying who and when the next game is.

Kirky Jambo Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Scottish Football is probably one of the only walks of life where doing the right thing or “rising above” gets you absolutely nowhere. Obviously it’s a personal choice but I’d strongly urge anyone in two minds not to give any money to Cowdenbeath. Equally I’m hoping the technical whizzes amongst us will put in extra efforts to find other streams to discourage folk from shelling out 😁 Im a petty b*stard, even more than I thought as I found myself willing Israel to win yesterday 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite frankly I am sick of folk telling others that if we don't sign up for PPV Hearts will lose money...WELL, in my case they won't because Hearts already have my ST money and FoH get £51 pledge every month. Those of us who do not want to stump up any more money to support Hearts virtually are perfectly entitled to do so especially when we consider giving ANY cash, even measly penny to ANY clubs who helped deny HMFC the opportunity to uphold a modicum of sporting integrity by not demoting us with 8 games and 24 points left to play for (and YES! I do realise it was our own players who got us to 12th place and YES! I watched more than my fair share of absolute gash performances last season, home and away). I reserve my right to deny Hearts any more of my hard earned cash since I am already contributing the best part of £1000 this year alone. PS blaming COVID no longer washes with me anymore. Simple fact is that Hearts TV International subscribers get a far better deal than any of the rest of us (I agree that I could use a VPN and gift another 12.99 per month to Hearts but I am unwilling to do so since I feel that most ordinary punters who put their heart and soul into following our team are being deliberately forgotten about and taken for granted like some benevolent herd of cash cows to be milked at every opportunity.) By the way I do not wish a refund on my ST or will I ever cancel my FOH pledge but I refuse to stand idly by and swallow every 'fantastic opportunity' presented to us by Hearts to 'support' the team from our living rooms! FFS1 Even a preferential rate for ST holders for the PPV would have been something - although I still would not take the offer up for the reasons stated above. Finally, I still await the club officially answering my enquiry regarding whether the league opener to be screened by BBC Scotland will be available as part of our 'free access' to Hearts TV or as I suspect it will only be available on BBC Scotland therefore reducing the already reduced 18 home games ST guarantee from 14 to 13! How are ST holders to be compensated for that? We wait with bated breath for the Tynecastle beaks to explain that away too. Rant over!

Tasavallan Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 (edited) I am currently in a reverse dilemma. Usually I am abroad, so watch through TV International with no need for VPN although I need a VPN to watch UK TV. Now back in West Lothian during lockdown/quarantine/isolation, I require a VPN to watch Hearts (or PPV). Who'd ha' thunk it? I reckon I will just listen to audio and catch up on the game once it gets posted on Hearts TV. I hate Central Park, dilapidated stockcar circuit where pitch is myopically away from the spectators.
