joondalupjambo Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 This was the time for "enough is enough and we will be considering our position in relation to the away fans attending future Derbies. Yes we have a few idiots but the last game was by far the worst by the away fans on a long list of previous". What Ann actually said, trying to walk the line was poor. Who cares if they find a handful of the guilty from the last game because they will just be replaced by others at the next game, guaranteed.

merseyjambo Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 It’s getting to stage now that the club should look after their own fans. Yes it’s nice having a reciprocal agreement but we know we’ll sell tickets in the Roseburn to our own fans. Could Hibs say the same if they only gave us what they give St Mirren or Dundee, in the Dunbar Road end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avhudtheteeshirt Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Hate to say it, but it would spoil the Derby game no end! The build up to the game would be rubbish, plus no banter before or during the game.

The Hearts board need to grow a pair of big hairy balls here and tell Hibs to feck off. Damn the consequences. Just consider that what Ann says in public is not necessarily what she has said to Hibs behind closed doors so to speak. She has to remain professional when making statements. I wouldn’t be surprised if our board have actually told Hibs to sort it out as this is the last time we will stand for it whilst issuing a diplomatic statement to the general public.

Shooter McGavin Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Read the full article, all fair enough really. I’m quite glad we don’t lower ourselves to the Old Firms “Our fans all behave themselves, it’s all the other clubs fans that are the problem” statements. Clear message, we don’t want to go down the Old Firm route and take away the spectacle of the derby, but there’s also a breaking point so stop acting like ******s.

Less of them cramming onto the trams from Leith Walk with their anti-social behaviour, hammering on the windows, rocking the carriages from side to side, causing hold-ups at e.g. St Andrew Sq, and generally inconveniencing folks heading to the airport or otherwise not involved in a football match.

The breaking point for me finished last Wednesday. Their behaviour over the past decade has got worse and worse. Not only in our ground but all over the place. I have seen absolutely nothing from those in charge at Hibs that suggests that they are on top of this and are actually seeking to stamp out this nonsense.

The ball is in Hibs court now, we’ve warned their fans and our own, let’s see what they do. If they don’t do anything, and their fans behave like clowns again, then we’ll restrict their allocation and they’ll only have themselves to blame. They’ll miss us a lot more than we’ll miss them.

Section Q Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 I think maximum penalties for unsociable behaviour would sort things out. We have enough CCTV equipment pointed at them. They could also pay for increased security. A 10 quid levy on their tickets would do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozzyonthefence Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 11 hours ago, Thomaso said: You sure about that? Yes I’m sure about that. In Scotland the clubs refuse to vote for strict liability so they can’t be held accountable for the behaviour of their fans. Read his warning again, he’s warning fans not the clubs. If individual fans break the law then they will be held accountable. However, it’s a pretty pointless warning as it would be a police matter anyway. The SPFL, as always, do nothing.

Chuck Berry Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Having more Hearts fans inside Tynecastle supporting the team, and less Hibs fans in line with all other clubs allocations is hardly a radical, controversial step. The problem here is McKinlay and other members of the board have waxed lyrical about the Edinburgh derby, how the clubs co-operate and how bad the OF are for not allowing in away fans, they've kinda backed themselves into a corner as a result and won't cut the Hibs allocation despite there being every justification for doing so. It might make them look bad. Hearts fans first and always first at Tynecastle. We own the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing really well and progressing nicely and then wanting to rip things up on the off chance that a roll of the dice will bring more success , when the odds are it will just make things worse .
