They must’ve done or the players would’ve went to the press, might just be a coincidence that they and Aberdeen were crap last season but hopefully it helped.

Nookie Bear Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 22 minutes ago, Percival King said: If nothing else, you would think a club and its supporters would be embarrassed and want to rid themselves of this nonsense. I remember getting home from Tynecastle after that cretin had got into the Celtic technical area to have a go at Lennon. It was all over Sky Sports, I knew the guy absolutely didn't represent me or Hearts supporters but nonetheless I was embarrassed for how it made Hearts and our fans look. You're right about that, he actually represented all football fans 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nookie Bear Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 1 hour ago, Percival King said: Unless something is happening in the background (though history would suggest that's unlikely) I just can't understand why there isn't more of a focus on addressing this problem and, unless I've missed it, some condemnation from those in authority. This isn't about using it as an opportunity to take the moral high ground or have a dig at Hibs, it's about ridding our game of this nonsense which can and has happened at several grounds and which, if it happened in a UEFA tie, would surely result in a fine or sanctions. If it goes unchecked, we risk this behaviour becoming more commonplace. Football doesn't like outside agencies like the Police or government getting involved so it needs to be pro-active on this. If we accept this behaviour then it, erm, becomes acceptable Less than a month ago, Neil Doncaster warned clubs they will face "severe" punishments if they fail to control thier fans. As usual, it's just hot air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skivingatwork Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Unfortunately, like most things in life, nothing is done until there is a serious incident, despite there being plenty of warning signs. If left unaddressed it’s a matter of time before a bottle hits someone on the head. There will suddenly be an outcry in the press, politicians will want to be seen criticising football fans etc. All because one club didn’t have the wherewithal to deal with it.

And there’s a thread on their site saying glass bottle hit a stewards hand and another booze bottle thrown just missed the pitch. So, after the derby and countless other games why the fek is that section not closed ? Or nets put up ? Surely a matter of time before someone (likely a player) is seriously injured. I don’t agree with docking points but that section has to be shut off surely. Ive said before as well that when they come to Tynecastle we need to erect netting.

How many bother to turn up is another matter. Once their last minute goals dry up and their draws turn into defeats it will be interesting.

Percival King Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Latest edition of When Saturday Comes has just dropped through my door. The derby is the featured Match of the Month. Lovely quote - "Since Eddie Turmbull's Tornadoes drifted away from Easter Road in the 1970s, Hearts dominance has at some points been verging on the need for charges of cruelty to be brought, with a 22 game undefeated run........" Strangely, in the interests of balance, I can't see anything in the article which refers to Hearts fans being destroyed by a cup defeat in 2016, maybe I missed it. Will we ever get over it?????

Gorgie_Rules Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 I see they have announced they have sold a grand total of 11,670 season tickets, a total they seem to be patting themselves on the back for. 25% less than ourselves, if numbers stay the same for both clubs over the next few seasons on average, along side our European cash, there could be quite a significant financial gap opening up between us and them.
