Most of us have only halted payments temporarily. Ann Budge will not like what we are doing - and this is the first strong message being sent. If she does not make changes, she will get a stronger message when ST'S go on sale. It is the only "weapon" we have until fans are allowed back in the stadium. The alternative is to do nothing.

David Black Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 5 hours ago, OldGorgie said: Yes she’s made mistakes but at the time she was the only one to put her own money into the club to save it and instead of acting like some owners in the past, she decided that fan ownership was the way ahead. It would have been so easy for her to keep the club under her ownership . According to a few on here the FOH contributions are not needed as the club is financially sound. Hence no need for FOH. Whilst I'm grateful for her putting the money in to FOH, I'm also sure if a lot of us had 40 odd million lying about we would have done the same. I certainly would. She could not have kept the club under her control as she was a member of FOH and FOH got the preferred bidder status due to it being fan ownership. I also think those criticising FOH, myself being one, are doing so because they appear to be impotent and/or choose to do nothing. FOH contributions now and into the future should be in addition to normal monies taken in. If the club was financially better run FOH money should not be required for the upkeep of the club.

I happen to think that the women's team will prove to be extremely forward thinking. That said your point on mission creep is well made.

sac Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Hats off to everyone who has cancelled/paused/reduced their subscriptions. Pissing off AB should not be our concern. A good side playing decent football that the support can get behind will generate more income. We’re a football club who should be self reliant on top three placings, European games and cup runs.

I don't contribute because I expect us to win every game or even play well every week. I don't contribute because I expect us to win anything. I don't contribute because I expect us to sign top quality players. I don't contribute because I expect to have a say in how the club is run. I contribute because I will never forget the feeling of standing in a queue at Tynecastle, waiting to hand over cash that I could ill afford to part with at the time, because the team I have loved since I was a boy was very, very close to going out of business, because of how it had been run. I will also be buying my season ticket the day they go on sale so that I continue to support the club that has given me some of the best days of my life. I am not a Budge supporter. I am not a Neilson supporter but I bear them no ill will either. They will leave the club in time as everyone does. I am a Hearts supporter, through the good times and more importantly the bad times. If you choose to cancel your contribution, or not buy a season ticket then that is your right, I have no issue with that because that is your choice and we must all choose to do what we believe is right. Results have been disappointing as have performances but with no fans in the grounds this whole season has been very, very flat, not just for us but for the vast majority of fans. The treatment we received with being demoted was as low a point as a football fan that I can ever remember, which ensured this entire season would be a negative experience. Beating Hibs was a rare high and coming so close to winning the Scottish Cup was a double edged sword. Pride in the display but bitter, bitter disappointment at the way it ended. We have endured a lot. I wont celebrate winning the Championship, this is the season that never was for me. Don't have a go at me for not joining the baying mob, I am keeping things in perspective. As we ease our way out of this pandemic, I have great hope for the future and I'm just thankful that me, my family and friends are all here to see it. Totally agree.

tian447 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Did you even contribute to the FoH in the first place?
