That is brilliant. I wonder who comes up with stuff like this.
It's quite poignant that comedy of such a high standard should be posted on the day that Ken Dodd passes away.

There is barely anything between the two clubs in size, stature and success (their recent success coming off the back of spending outwith their means). To state that we are punching above our weight in comparison to them is just utter lunacy.

It is really like old soviet propaganda or Nazi talk of a thousand year Reich dominating the world!
It demonstrates a complete lack of ability to properly and objectively analyse the available facts; behaviour which in itself is a clear indicator of desperation and which will not allow them to get out of the rut they're in.

If Hibs were standing still, he might have a point.
If the genius behind Hearts' development had a track record of success, he might have a point.
If he takes away the fact that Levein has been entirely responsible for Hearts NOT having a settled squad, he might have a point.
If he ignores that Levein is responsible for the single most embarrassing and negative football tactic ever used by the Scottish national side, he might have a point.
If he ignores the respective standings of the development teams of Hibs and Hearts, he might have a point.
If Hibs had no development plan in place, he might have a point.
Reality tells us, though, that every point he made has massive, brown-stained '86 vintage pants sized, holes in it.
If their best source of comfort is that things will get better because of plans that Craig Levein has, then we can all look forward to a very bright, very green, future.
There is straw clutching, then there's that post which takes it to another level altogether.

Every single positive they point to as reasons for their impending superiority are things we have done (and for the most part already paid for) years ago.
Youth development set up? Yup, we got one of those, it's already paid dividends with the transfer fees received for the "golden generation"...that's how long ago we started investing in developing our own players, yet they talk about it as if they've just invented the wheel!
Stadium? Yup, not only is our re-vamped stadium almost paid for, it's 20k+ capacity and UEFA compliant thanks very much!
Fan ownership? Approx how much of the club to our fans now own? About 30% give or take? While meantime, as has been pointed out elsewhere, they've been ploughing their money into Budgies coffers for 5 years and don't have a single share to show for it.
Is it ironic that the colour of jealousy is green?!

Hearts are currently in 5th place 12 points behind and 14 goals worse off than leaders Hibernian.
Share ownership? Who knows if they'll eventually do anything, the person calling the shots might have already decided they're happy ownership has 100%been achieved by a fan and is now cracking on directing what has happened and will happen with their cash. All very Romanovesque, and pleasing.

Hearts problem is using the past as some measure of the current and future, essentially living in denial. The Rangers have exactly the same issue – they want to get ‘back’ to an era that was in fact a mirage, paid for with other people’s money and by cheating the SFA.
Hearts are the same. Financially doped up for years, and rescued by Budge and the supporters coming to the rescue at 11.59, they still ‘expect’ to be something they were once upon a time, even if was all on tick then.
Obviously the FOH income is very welcome – but it’s not guaranteed and is ultimately linked to how some people feel about the product on the park and results.
Challenge I see is how do they pay to; finish the main stand, build a new nursery, relay an expensive pitch AND invest in the playing squad now that they only spend what they earn? Something has to give.
What Hibs MUST do is capitalise on their neighbours, and closest rivals, weakness. We need to make more noise about HSL and do more to encourage it.
They’re just about keeping their head above water. Let’s stick a hosepipe down their throats and seize this opportunity to build on all the good work done OFF the pitch in the past 10+ years.

That line -
Hearts on the other hand are building a foundation to dominate Scottish football over the coming years
It just defies belief !. I mean - WTF - how/what .................................. they couldn't dominate anyone/anything when they tanned over £100m of 'Other People's Money' over 3 generations !! In other words, they even made an arse of it CHEATING - but now they're going to 'dominate' while 'Playing within their means' ?. The clown who posted this better not ever enter into a 'Battle of wits' as he's clearly un-armed !

Would you say the same about HSL and the other fans' contributions, including those from this site?

What a shambles we are actually. I never realised it till they pointed out. Imagine relying on a settled squad? And we definitely have no plan going forward. Lennon should have kept our 2 top scorers like most teams would have bur instead decided to change somthing that wasnt ticking. What a maverick.
We do not have a development team top of their respecrive league with the next of our youngsters who will hopefully make the step up.
I guess we will need to overhaul the entire squad in the summer now as well.
I wonder if anyone could sneak in and steal the hearts how to book and give us some tips?
I think sacking lennon is the first page as he failed to win v them in the cup. Oh
