ShedBoy Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 (edited) I know I’m not the most intelligent being to grace the streets of Woodburn but it’s just dawned on me that in the Europa Conference League we appear to be the best supported team in Group A. Edit: that’s a bit h1b5 eh? 🤔 Edited September 16, 2022 by ShedBoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, you can’t unfortunately say it has nothing to do with us. I first heard it sung on a dreich mid-week night at Ibrox around 1969 or 1970, sung solely by Hearts fans with Rangers fans listening in respectful silence. By the Saturday, they were singing much the same thing with a few changes to location. But I agree it belongs in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course our fans used to sing it along with other sectarian crap which, as you say,belongs in the past. Anyway, no more on this from me as it should all be about a good away win in Europe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, looked absolutely incredible last night and chuffed folk there got a result to celebrate. Riga as a club, city and fans seem pretty decent as well. None of this pavement dancing shite it doesn't seem. Agree, there was some poster on here saying i hope the UJ brigade behave in a previous trip and it was based on nothing. ferk all , just his hatred i think Hearts fans were awesome last night Edited September 16, 2022 by SCFHearts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckies1874 Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Fans were tremendous. Couple of isolated incidents which lasted no time at all in a support of 1500+, many of whom had had a beverage or 10, it’s honestly crazy that people are getting worked up. Show me a club of our size in the UK who doesn’t have some element of gadges, troublemakers or simply guys away for a few days with no cares or responsibilities having a good time and being a little raucous and over the top. Its not a Hearts problem, most if not all of any slightly antisocial behavior witnessed is a societal problem not a football one! It’s not a significant issue for our club and shouldn’t be allowed to overshadow and take away from a magnificent traveling support, one which RFS and their fans loved!

Jambo-Fox Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 The Riga trip was one of my best European trips ever! As near to perfection on and off the pitch as you will ever get! ‘Total Team’ work, the supporters inspired the team and when the game kicked have they (players) reciprocated. ALL supporters we’re great ambassadors whilst traveling and in the bars and restaurants …. I’m sure all in Riga love us!

The only trouble I heard about was a mob of Latvians with knuckle dusters, outside the funny fox at 2am on the Wednesday morning (possibly Thursday morning). The police apparently pepper sprayed them and told them to bolt, or the many Hearts fans would sort them. And I only heard that story, didn't witness it. As far as I saw, it was one massive party.

We were in the home section p and it was about 50/50 home and away. No bother at all, beer being passed around. In this cynical bigoted goldfish bowl of Scottish football it was a breath of fresh air! The security in the stadium were great as well. Let a few things slide, such as standing on the barriers over the walkway, that would result in you getting kicked out back home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
