After a brief skim through of that crock of **** I can safely say that if Hibs came out with any of that pish they'd be getting told to GTF by most of the support. Race nights and family fun days? 😂😂😂

That won't go down well with Goncalves.

So if I understand correctly, to be a yam, you have to pay £100 to earn the right to pay £25-30 to see your team get horsed by us?

Sounds fair.

Price comparison for next season for adult sitting in main stand.



Hibs £360
Hearts £480 + £100( for right to buy your own seat for cup games) = £580

That's a big difference. The yams are getting shafted big time.

Me thinks Mrs B's latest business plan has taken into account all those DDs that have been vanishing since we horsed them out the cup.

Dunno how you came across that but it's brilliant !!.

'A brick's not just for Christmas ......'

The entire script/dialogue is sooooo Jambo !!

If the yams have to pay £100 to protect themselves for the next 3 years from price rises it makes you wonder just how much Budge is planning on stinging them for over the next 3 years?

My recollection - and I admit I'm becoming less and less in touch with reality as the years go by - my recollection is that each stage of the Easter Road rebuild took 6-7 months from demolition to completion and issue of the safety certificate?

That's not counting the planning stages, just the actual demolition and build, first of the Famous Five and South Stands, then of the West (the new and rather splendid West Stand), and finally of the East Stand that completed the renovation of the essential elements of the stadium?

So the Budgerigar is telling her dupes that the LEECH Stand (I'm sorry, I know it's not spelled that way, but whenever the subject of Jambonomics arises I find myself inevitably thinking of loathsome blood-sucking parasites - I don't know why)... but when the LEECH Stand comes down the Budgie Stand will arise from the ruins complete and ready to go in only THREE months, and that all that will be left to do will be 'the fitting-out' ... (What the fit does she mean exactly by 'the fitting-out', BTW? Putting the seats in?

I suppose that things do move along a lot more quickly when the District Council aren't making you observe all the legal stages of planning permission and safety certification and so on.

My precis of her 'State of the Midden' message would be:

Dear Cash-Cows and Eedjits: we have a new manager and heid coach. GEEZE MONEY. We're keeping that plook of a DoF because I made him a director and I cannae get rid of him. GEEZE MONEY. The papers and the Hibees are all laughing at the new manager because he's a plook as well, but he uses big words that I dunno the meaning of (neither does he) and he has a lap-top and I like him. GEEZE MONEY. We've signed loadsa players, (one or two of them's a wee bit good) and it turns out we have to pay them. GEEZE MONEY. We're finally building the new main stand and that's gonnae be expensive. GEEZE MONEY. Me and the DoF have thought up a new ticketing plan that'll make us loadsa money. And we're gonnae have a bake sale to raise funds. GEEZE MONEY. We are the Jambos and we don't have to keep the rules like the other lot doon Leith do. GEEZE MONEY. LOATSA MONEY. NOW!!!!

Problem for Hearts fans is that they have to invest emotionally and financially in an unworkable model.

She knows the mugs are an easy target for cash, perhaps one day they will realise that just once maybe they could buy the kids a new pair of trainers...then again maybe no.

[EskbankHibby]

Just managed to get through that statement for the first time. Where to begin! (Please note annoying use of exclamation mark too often as per their statement, thankfully they stopped just short of emojis in that dreadfully written piece)

Lost a bit of respect for Queen Anne If I'm honest, basically "we know best, shut it and give us your money".

This is going to be good in the short, medium and long term. Fantastic entertainment ahead.

I would have thought we will be hoping to use the money we make as a club for any expenses.

Luckily we have a completed stadium and a great training facility so hopefully any future expenditure will be purely football related

Yeah, plus a transfer every few years to try amd buildnup some reserves etc

[Deansy]

Nowhere in that statement does there appear to be any thought/consideration given to falling attendances - despite their claims of 'another full house' at every home-game, every man and his dog knows it's not true. They're going through their first bad-patch since they were saved from extinction and every week you can see by pictures/highlights, there's more and more empty seats at the PBS. Jambos reared on 30+ years of teams artificially inflated with 'Other people's money' are not happy, especially the younger ones who naively believed that Hearts had always been 'Famous/Big team' etc and had been throughout their club's entire history - now that they're witnessing for the first time, a Hearts-team that's more of a genuine Hearts standard historically - AND that's the future facing them - they're fast losing interest and showing it by staying away.


I've said numerous times that a 'Bad patch' would have a huge damaging effect on them and (hopefully) this is the start of it - along with the falling-attendances, we're also hearing/reading of more and more D/D's being cancelled. I predict it won't be long before the alarm-bells are ringing again at the PBS - and no club (well, apart from the Hun) deserves what's coming to them more than Hearts. The arrogance their support developed over the 'Cheating Years' just means there won't be many other football-fans (if any) shedding a tear for them - Hibs-fans ? - We'll just be p*****g ourselves laughing at them - again !

[Famous Fiver]

Been inexorably heading for that financial cliff for years now and it'll take much deeper pockets than the wee budgie has to deal with it.

I've said it before and I'll say it again

Lets hope if Hearts try to get early "home" games against us and the OF at Murrayfield and we boycott them so they dont get the extra cash.

If you fall into the above category, and are paying a DD of lets say £25 per month too, that's £880 right away! Never mind the further cost of potentially supporting them at away games, buying club merchandise etc.

[Skol]

kickback appears to be broke which is depriving me of an evenings entertainment reading about how the levein/cathro duo is now working like a dream and how they cant wait keep chucking their money over a wall with nothing coming back in return - apart from the right to buy a ticket to see them lose to hibs

Why would Hearts publish a fake statement from Ann Budge on their official site?

So many great quotes in this rambling statement that could really benefit from some proof reading, but this one is a gem:

'Ian is particularly articulate.'

In the style of Queen Ann...

This statement is, pure "comedy gold"!

Obviously not then, I didn't realise it was on their website. I read a copy and paste someone posted on my FB and it was so laughable I didn't think it was genuine.

Well Budgie seems happy enough with the Chuckle Brothers and their Box Soccer. You pass it to me then I pass it to you and so on. To me...to you...to me...to you.

I have now, read the whole "statement " and I have, a Headache!

Grammar, Queen Ann. I thought you were a stickler for detail?
