What a super-duper idea. 👍 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackshades Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 (edited) So your asking player's more than half that weren't here last year just to ignore something they have been working for all season just to ignore it . Not going to happen Edited April 11 by Blackshades Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tian447 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 It's absolutely not going to happen. Not lifting the trophy proves absolutely nothing, and the SPFL/Neil Doncaster won't even blink at it. What will be a real "**** you" will be finishing high up that League table next season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jamtastico Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 The players should do what they want to do. The club made it clear last season what they thought. Now, if the fans were at Tynecastle. I'm sure all you'd here is... SFA W*NK, W*NK, W*NK! We will get our moment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

1971fozzy Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Never going to happen. Of course they should accept the trophy. I think the SPFL know what supporters and indeed the club think of them. players will rightfully collect the trophy and they can celebrate it all they want. Turn your TV or laptop off if offended.

Boab Mugabe Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 As much as I’m for a petty gesture to show contempt for the SPFL and treat their risible ‘league’ we got voted into with the maximum disrespect it deserves, the club will sadly be instructed to graciously accept and celebrate it by the Chairwoman. If bowling over welders and binmen is what some of our players regard as an achievement and worthy of celebration then good for them. I wouldn’t be having any of those longer term at the club.

Barack Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 https://www.edinburghlive.co.uk/sport/football/john-souttar-says-hearts-celebrations-20365204 Don't think we have to worry about any over exuberant celebrating, on receipt of the trophy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 (edited) I wouldn’t be surprised if we got sanctioned for bringing the game into disrepute- but I back the players from walking away from the trophy. Would give me some faith that at least some of them understood the fans and were with us rather than keeping everyone else happy.

Selkirkhmfc1874 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 No way the club will do this because tv / newspapers etc will want pictures and the sponsors will also want it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stuart500 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 We probably have a legal obligation under the competition rules to take part in a winners ceremony. The competition sponsors will want their name shown in the media coverage of the event. It's what they are paying for after all and they won't care what club wins it and how that club feels about it in private. So we will not boycott it and will be required to show some respect to the sponsors. That will not mean any over the top celebration just polite gracious dignity.

SectionDJambo Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Given the current restrictions, and the fuss made about Celtic drinking at the poolside and Scotland's conga, I would imagine any presentation will be extremely low key anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would give me some faith that at least some of them understood the fans and were with us rather than keeping everyone else happy. To be honest, had we won the Scottish Cup, I was all for the team walking off the pitch, getting on the bus and heading up the road....no comment, leaving the trophy. Such was my contempt at the SFA for backing up Doncaster in the legal challenge. Make no mistake, it would have made national news and would have seriously embarrassed the Hampden mafia. It would have shone a light on the Mickey Mouse league and the obsession with the bigots. Perhaps too much water under the bridge now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Juho_Makela_Goal_Machine Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Whether or not they performed to the standard expected of them this season, the players earned the right to lift the trophy and I will not begrudge them at all for doing that. If they're all wearing t-shirts saying 'Back where we rightly belong, Champions 2020-21' that would do the trick for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
