leginten Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 I approve of any club cutting the arse cheeks’ allocation (although the article doesn’t state that the cut will only apply to the OF). That said, Hibs have by far the worst fans in Scotland in terms of hooligan behaviour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cameronstheman Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 ER live on TV when the OF filth are denied a full allocation will be a sight to behold especially if they secure a top 6 I said before they will offer a ticket for £5 a pop and even then toil to sell a decent support Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo-Fox Posted March 11 Author Share Posted March 11 Maybe Hearts have served notice to reduce the Hibs allocation at Tynecastle and Hibs have decided to reciprocate at Easter Road under the guise of cutting their allocation to Rangers. It would certainly be bizarre if Hibs cut the Hearts ticket allocation without reducing the one for Rangers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambo mark Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Hibs board forced into that statement by supporter pressure. Make no mistake, if hibs.net had not sent that open letter, they’d still be taking the old firm pound - 100%. If hibs half the allocation, over 4 games it wipes off £200k of revenue.

Their support has trashed Hampden, after winning the cup, caused a riot down Leith on the night of the cup win, wrecked the old east stand, nicking seats etc that people had already paid for, punched a Hearts goalie, lobbed a knife at shanks, chucked bottles at Hearts players, had numerous racist supporters arrested. I could go on and mention players getting arrested, pissing in doorways etc. Scum FC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact they haven't been willing to give an on the record spokesperson quote suggests that is what the media team expects, but they haven't actually firmly decided. Tbh that may be sensible as they may be waiting for us to confirm arrangements for next season. If our Board so want to cut Hibs allocation, this statement provides the perfect opportunity. We simply need to point to recent unacceptable behaviour by Hibs fans at Tynecastle and the fact the Hibs Board urged other clubs to take action.

Pans Jambo Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Are Hearts fans upset that rangers allocation at Easter Road is getting cut? I welcome it.

Hearts1975 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 (edited) The simple reason that Hibs go on about fan behaviour, and now with them cutting the OF allocations, is nothing to do with what's happening to them, but everything to do with the fact, that they know, that they carry the biggest set of scum element, out of every club in Scotland. Therefore it's very VERY important for them, that they continue to advocate improvement in fan behaviour, for the game, overall, so they don't end up exposed and dealing with their own problem, which would cost them big time. How anyone does not see this for what it really is, I do not know. If they dealt with their own shit in house, they would lose half their support from their ground, and they wouldn't be able to take it financially. That's a more likely explanation. Ann Budge needs to realise that it's absolutely fine to call out single clubs, when merited, rather than try and fry her own support, when it's obviously done to minimise backlash, and really isn't necessary. No one is saying everyone is perfect but the element in the hubs support, absolutely take it to another level, in comparison to everyone else, and by AB saying what she said, it simply validates these idiots in charge down Leith way in terms of it being an overall problem in the game, when the majority of the problems is coming from right under their own nose.

They’ve had many, many years to tackle the problem in the corner of their East Stand nearest the away end where our players are routinely spat at, coined and have a whole range of projectiles launched at them every time we play there. Every single time. Even Andy Walker referred to it as a “terrible problem” in commentary a few years ago. What have they done about it? **** all. While I approve of their allocation cut for the OF, you can never get away from the hypocrisy, cant and deflection that emanate from that cesspit.

Armageddon Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 We can cut the Glasgow 2’s ticket allocation with the security of knowing the ground will be 95% full of season ticket holders, it’ll be chaos in the home end with 6000 unsold tickets that will no doubt be picked up in the home end!!

Corstorphine Jambo Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 The timing of this is ‘unfortunate’ given Hibs fans behaviour at Tynecastle recently. However I am pleased to see this. The reality is it’s another club saying we really don’t want the old firm fans visiting.

Perrykitch Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I think we’re missing an obvious opportunity here. Hibs could be talking about their own fans disgraceful behaviour by their coked up neds at the last derby. They deserve their own allocation cut for the same reasons. Also it’s going to be really funny when they reduce the OF allocation and the other parts of the stand next to them is totally empty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JG_1874 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Hubs will only suffer look at the shite show on Sunday they had more green seats than fans , if you reduce away allocation you will then have less revenue simple maths tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
