Does make you think when people are talking about how stadium redevelopment is too expensive because it will cost so many millions ……….. start diverting some of it in it to a stadium fund so we already have the start of a pot to deal with what ever we decide to do in ten years time perhaps 
 

For the next 3 years we need to divert all our funds into a quality team to totally nail down our position as the 3rd force in Scottish football, and regularly making good progress in Europe.

[indianajones]

Would be good to set a target to somehow get to 10k monthly pledgers. 

 

Hard times just now of course but hopefully things will change in the near future. 

 

BTW, does anyone know where i can get the pins for reaching certain levels? Im not really fussed about anything else (plot ceremony etc) but would be nice to have these. 

[Papa]

The irony of ironies. Romanov almost killed our club but without/despite him we could never have expected to achieve fan ownership or this level of monthly fan contributions. As they “it’s an ill wind …”

I achieved two of these during lockdown. I emailed FoH and they sent them on to me + the certificates

This is truly a remarkable achievement.  Everyone involved should give themselves a pat on the back. 

 

If you are a Paid Member of JKB, then you can give yourself two pats on the back.  Thanks to the generosity of our Paid members, Jambos Kickback pays £500 per month to the FoH.

Simply outstanding. If we are regularly challenging then these numbers will only grow 👏🏻👏🏻

Quite unbelievable guys well done to all you fellow joint owners of the famous Heart of Midlothian.

Total is now sits at £13,782,484 , which is superb considering what a lot of families are going through at this moment in time. 

 

Whilst over on .net they have virtually stopped donating and lost all faith in Ron the con.

Let’s not go on about what the wee team is doing. Forget them they’re inconsequential to our club.

This clubs supporters have shown over many years that they will always be there to support Heart of Midlothian Football Club through thick and thin no matter what. It’s a love thing that will never die.

Impressive set of stats Lone Striker it makes for interesting reading.

From Oct 2021 it has moved up a level and sitting at over £142,983 every month since.👍

 

onwards and upwards

Assuming we've got some players earning £3,000 per week, FoH is effectively funding the annual pay of one of those players every month.

You might find that  £4 is more important to him/her, than it is to other donators, it may be a kids pocket money.

Out of interest, is anyone clever enough to work out an estimate of FOH contributions as a proportion of the club's entire income?

The last full season we played in the Premiership without covid-19 interruption was 2018/19 and our turnover for that season was c £15m.  That excludes donations from FOH or benefactors.  So FOH donations are adding more than 10% on top of our annual turnover.

With all that extra dough, we really should be pulling away from the rest of the shit munchers in the league. No excuses. 

correct - there will always be blips (as we have experienced) but we should become a significantly better team / squad than the rest and continue to have more shots at Europe and hence more access to increased revenue and so compound our advantage over the others

 

the odd blip accepted but assuming the others don’t come up with something out the ordinary as you say “no excuses”

Am I right in thinking the sustained increase from Oct 2021 onwards corresponds with the handover of majority ownership to FoH?

I think that there was a correlation, as the handover was at the end of August 21. It would take another month to get all the new subscriptions up and running, so October 21 would be the first full month with the increased number of subscribers.

[Section Q]

Makes impressive reading.

I think we could see a slight drop in contributions when the winter heating bills kick in.

As a comparison, the Lochend ponzi scheme reports the following - since July 2019, total contributions £582k from 4k contributors....boil that down that's an average of £4 per month per contributor...we offer more than 4x as much on average per contributor from more than twice as many contributors.

My grandson Jayden was born on Friday at 4.10 am. By 7.30 he was a member of FOH. 3 hours old and already part owns the Hearts.

3 hours? Was there a queue for the computer?

 

 

Congrats though

Bit late catching up on this thread, but I completely agree. I think we should start a stadium fund eventually but the footballing side is what needs tending to most right now.

 

Isnt that what FOH is for?

 

That and other developments off the pitch.

Nope, unless the governance structure changes.
