Sharpie Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Surely there is at least one real fan who is prepared to skydive in his form of protest.

Vladfan Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I protest at the total lack of comma's, full stops and paragraphs! OK, can we move away from the fact that the OP hasn't got his head fully round the importance of punctuation. I think the fact that Romanov decided to go to a basketball game on Saturday rather than spend his time at Tynecastle, shows that whatever intrest he's had in the past has now gone and Heart of Midlothian are now being cast aside like an old Christmas present. I agree that a direct protest wanting "Vlad out" is not the way way to go, we need to organise something like the previous SOH but on a much larger scale. I also agree that if Gary Mckay hadn't been so vocal in how marvellous Vlad was, not so many people would have been so keen to have thrown their weight behind getting Vlad in. Yes, many people supported Vlad anyway but also looked up to Gary Mckay to lead us in the right direction and, combined with the vulnerable position, we were, looking back, too quick to side with him without doing any research of our own into this charletan that is Romanov. I am starting to fear that it is now too late to do anything about it. The debt has spiralled out of control to a point where the fans have no real possibility of ousting Vlad on our own and it's unlikely that any serious business(man) would look to invest in a club who's only assets, lets be honest, are the ground and maybe 2 or 3 players. I know that we technically owe the debt to ourselves but looking at the bigger picture, a long term plan is required for when Vlad's not here (ie Brookes Mileson) or decides he'd had enough and walks away.

paul Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Sadly our beloved Hearts is split down the middle, with some advocating stick with the club despite the way our owner shows scant disregard for our club and supporters , yet when a concerned fan wants a protest of some form , the psuedo intellectuals run down the guy , rather than look at the issues ,Romanov has lied repeatadley to us , what do we do? Romanov will lead us to the abyss , so i admit i dont know the answers but Romanov is lying to us or can i say terminological inactitudes for the geniuses on here.

JHunter1874 Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 you know what's laughable if not a little disconcerting. when robinson was CEO a lot of hardcore jambos boycotted tynecastle and vowed not to return until the pieman had gone. this in turn led to empty seats adding to the debt at roughly equatable to the annual deficit of robinsons last 5 years at the club. now the same people have continually been advocating that we have to continue our loyalty to the club by not boycotting tynecastle. that we can't be real fans. now maybe if that strategy had been adopted during the piemans last 5 year, we wouldn't have had the ?20 million debt at the time and our club wouldn't be fecked like it is now. the logic is way beyond me and like minded supporters. but as i have a low post count i must be a hobo and not to be taken seriously. the mind boggles.

KinkyJambo Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Ever since Romanov got involved my interest in the club has waned - mostly because of the fact that most of the fans have seemed to have turned their back on him (and cos I got married). The board is my last ditch attempt to keep a grip on reality, but it shows that there are too many factions for the supporters to show a united stand toward the board.

Well done Pete on playing his role to perfection!
