Another Fred that has turned into slagging everything Hearts and to see who can out seethe each other. Do folk just wake up angry and then look to get angrier about Hearts. One might think These folk need to watch Man citehh or Utd and calm down a bit. Stop goading, Tosh. It’s a simple question; were Thistle right to ban Doncaster ? If yes, then why on Earth did we allow him in ? The criticism of the club in allowing that parasite in is wholly justified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Hastings Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Great from Thistle, their demotion was the craziest of them all with how tight it was and the game in hand. Did we definitely have Doncaster in the building at the Inverness game? Never saw hide nor hair of him on the match-day stream, just that boy with the untucked shirt who put the trophy on the podium.

You'll have to forgive me, but I'm not sure what you mean by the above. Do you mean HMFC will urge our own support to return to away fixtures, or Partick Thistle will urge Hearts fans to return to fixtures at Firhill. Given that Partick will be going back into the division we are just leaving I'm guessing you mean HMFC asking our fans to go to away fixtures. The intention was not to go to many away fixtures in the season just ended, to prevent money going to certain clubs. However, the pandemic meant we were unable to travel to any away games anyway, so no club benefited financially from us being in the Championship. Over the course of the last week I've been dealing with a number of bus providers to make sure that once the new season starts, and a date is confirmed as to when fans can go to away fixtures we will be ready to rock and roll, and an arangement is now in place with our chosen bus provider. However, there may be a situation where we don't go to all away games, and if I'm honest the one fixture that sticks out as potentially one which HMFC fans are asked not to purchase tickets for is the game(s) at Easter Road, and that might test some of the HMFC support. I suspect our first away trip, which will be on an LRT bus rather than a private coach, will be the friendly game which I believe has been arranged against Whitehill Welfare at Rosewell. Thereafter we will be intent on being at whatever location HMFC are playing at, depending on restrictions put in place, be that in terms of crowd numbers allowed at Tynecastle and whether or not fans will be allowed to travel to away games. The club won't have to tell us to go, we want to be there, it was why the week was set out as it was, i.e. working Monday to Friday with the weekend set aside for socialising with friends and going to football matches, and the last year of not being able to go to Tynecastle or travel away has been a huge pain in the ass.

Supporters should travel to away fixtures, assuming away fans allowed, as they see fit - I know I plan take in my normal number of away games. If some want to boycott that’s their choice as well.

I hadn't read through the full thread before I originally posted so was just a little bit confused by the original post I responded to. I don't know if something had been said earlier in the thread about not going to games and just detailed my position. However, I agree totally if people don't want to travel that is 100% down to them, it is their choice. I just want to get back to going to football matches, every weekend if possible, this last year has been a strain.

Sorry let me be clearer, apologies. I can see the club asking supporters to stop boycotting away games to the clubs who voted in our worst interests. That is of course if people do boycott certain clubs. Was not and would not judge individuals like yourself who are planning buses etc for away fixtures next season.
