Pele_Is_God Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Would love to say we will make the play-offs but fear we will just miss out. That being said we have Alloa(H), Morton(H) and QOTS(H) in next 3 games so if we take maximum points we will be back up there. For me it's all about surviving as a club, retaining our full-time status and getting a settled side ready for next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think for the first season, at least, back in the PL we should exempt those clubs who voted us down from our visiting support. Hearts fans aren't stingy as the efforts to donate to the Caley Jags show, but depriving these pr..ks of revenue is one of the few things we can do to show them up. Quite a few clubs will still be suffering financially and hopefully that continues for them. Interesting to see how many clubs have fans capable of saving them from extinction...! Our fans have a right to be bitter, most neutrals will agree with that. Our fans really stand out when it comes time to step up.

JyTees Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Tenner sent. Not really in support of ICT (although admittedly, helping them is a nice gesture). Not for Robbo's signature either (had the odd programme signed over the years by the wee man). No, it's the seethe the tin pot tossers that stuck the boot in will be feeling that makes me all warm and fuzzy 😁. It's like Jim Bowen at the end of Bullseye wheeling out the speed boat when you just failed to score 101. Right *** roond ye ya muppets. Never forgive, or forget.

There won’t be a boycott next season. Not a hugely observed one anyway. Unless of course Dundee join us in the league. I think they would still get boycotted to a large extent. We’ve made our point and rubber stamped it with this ICT ticket gesture. No one will be in any doubt why that has happened. It is and should be a one off unless we get certain teams in the cup where it might be done again. 1500 people being absent from Fir Park won’t make a blind bit of difference to their finances over the course of a season and might well impact negatively on a team which will need everything we can give them in terms of vocal support. Personal choice of course but I’ll be going to 4 or 5 selected away games as per normal. I imagine that most folk who go to far more away games than I do will be champing at the bit to get back.

I can forgive someone who steals from a member of my family but, while they have my forgiveness, they have to pay the penalty of law for stealing. There is always a chance if those who stabbed us in the back, to be forgiven and forego the consequences IF they "repent" and that means publicly apologising and making restitution and, I think it's fair to say, hell will freeze before that happens. Therefore, the boycott is fully justified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portobellojambo1 Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 (edited) It is interesting, or maybe different is a better work, to read just how many fans of other championship clubs, are getting a bit disappointed by the number of virtual tickets HMFC fans are purchasing for this game up at Inverness. Many of them just seem to think this is because Robbo and Scott Gardiner are at ICT just now and that is having an impact. Those same fans may well be unaware that when we as a club were struggling back in 2013 ICT made a payment into the forerunner of FOH to help us out, and they also voted against the ending of last season, a final decision from others which resulted in our demotion. The purchase of these tickets is being done for a club who have offered us support in the past, and is a means of saying thank you at a time they are struggling. As far as I can see the fans of mainly two premier league clubs ae making their negative thoughts known, Celtic and Hibs fans, and I'm not at all surprised by that. Other fans seem to be mainly championship clubs whose fans don't understand why we haven't been purchasing PPV in bulk to help them out as well. I think the best word to respond to that is the word karma. For the Inverness game I believe the virtual number of tickets now sold is around the 4,500 mark, with many still to be purchased. I'm guessing there is at least 1 supporters club whose figures aren't included in that, and they will be taking into account the cost of their bus if the game had gone ahead and making a payment of around £1,000 in the form of virtual tickets. A few smaller clubs have maybe discovered that you can side with one half of the OF behind closed office doors, but if you piss off the HMFC support you will be well and truly bitten on the arse.

Dia Liom Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Bought 2 and very glad to help ICT out as I think they've been struggling financially. Have managed to go the season so far without paying for any team that voted to demote us, except East fife where I couldn't get a stream. Not too bothered about decisions to boycott or not, but it's my small way of protesting the events of the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
