Positive Action From Hearts

[Keith_M]

I think Hearts are to be applauded on taking action against the idiots that threw 'Pyrotechnics' onto the pitch, and at Hibs Fans, at last week's game.

Hearts take action to tackle use of pyrotechnic devices at Tynecastle


I think they should also take action against the coin throwers (as should Hibs) and the Sectarian songs, but this is at least a start.

They should be applauded for that. Quote scary reading that as my daughter was hot with one and my asthma isn't the best. I wrote to our Chief Exec a week ago and await her reply. A friend had a similar incident and wrote to the police, Budge and LeeAnn last year and the Dr was the only one who replied.

Sorry, updated it now

Well done Hearts for taking action.

Is this the beginning of the end for their new singing section?

[SirDavidsNapper]

Budge doesn't tolerate this kind of thing to be fair to her. Surprised she even allowed a singing section.

Look at the crowd photo in that article.
There is not one person in it over 21 years old.

Is that a problem.

It is if that is where the idiot problems are i.e. the only reason they all bought season tickets there is so they can noise up the opposition supporters in the stand next to them and is a big problem if that extends to throwing coins or flares. The wise Dr may think the ticket office should have noticed a pattern.

Do you think it is coincidence that our singing section is now as far away from the away support as possible?
Dempster played them beautifully and they didn't suspect a thing.

Don't think our singing section (S43 as it was then) was ever a threat to away fans either through throwing stuff or from inciting violence! Pretty difficult from the back parts of S43.

Well done Hearts!
Credit where it is due.

Maybe no threat but Pyro was never far away when they were in Section 43...

Remember standing in the East when the best supporters in the world lobbed CS gas into our section.

It caused a crowd surge as the only way to escape for most was to scale an eight foot high fence and seek the relative safety of the pitch. Idiots!

I am massively impressed that you stand all game at 63
Out of interest do you guys ever get folk in sections 42 or 44 complaining that section 43 folks standing stops them from seeing the match?

We asked to move to that section - the one least populated. And from my recollection, LD wasn’t involved at all, it was others at the club.

Fair dues.
You guys do a good job.
I trust you are careful you are not infiltrated by idiots.

I think it might be the first step to closing those sections, or some of it, for Cat A games. They did so in the past in the main stand and it should make those areas of the stadium less of a flashpoint.

[Weegreenman]

Fair play, credit were credit is due. Absolutely no need for it. If football wants to keep attracting families then this needs to be knocked on the head.,

[HibeeHibernian4]

The lower sections of N and G need to be closed off for Hearts’ category A games. Like The Den, it attracts the biggest idiots to the blocks nearest the away end so they can spend 90 minutes posturing and pretending they’re hard men.

[BILLYHIBS]

Keekaboo I did read the whole thread before posting and you are correct Hearts should be commended for the action they have taken and I would like to see this reciprocated at Easter Road my post was based on the SSN interview I saw yesterday at 1300 hrs in which Potter said the players were only trying to HELP the referee and there was no confrontation??
To me that was laughable as the Hearts players were obviously trying to get Flo sent off
I just thought I would add it on to your thread as wee comical aside to them acting in a POSITIVE manner on the day
Apologies for hijacking your thread mate.

Fair dos, Billy. The guy does talk some crap

[Tom Hart RIP]

Ann Budge statement says they will ban any Hearts fan causing damage to away stadiums.

[hibbydog]

Just read the article on BBC website.

Well done to hearts for taking a hard line. I really hope they follow it through. Will be interesting to see the impact.

[Col2]

They should be applauded. Sometime it’s important to admit you have a problem before you can do something about it.

If this gets the sectarian and racist element out of Tynecastle then good luck to them.

No flags, no standing, less songs (the song book was small as it is) will at the very least bring a more family day type atmosphere.

[Eyrie]

A good statement from Budge, but I'll reserve my praise until I see what action is actually taken.

[we are hibs]

Wonder if they'll be quick enough to take action here or if they will let a well known trouble making racist moron into one of their games?

AFAIK, this is nothing to do with him actually going to Tynecastle - these muppets had a "charity fundraiser" during which some of them put on Tommy Robinson masks.

I dont doubt that the majority of decent hearts fans would be as disgusted as we would if this idiot was anywhere near a Scottish game.

Having said all that, it is clear from both the numbers there, and the support they have online that Hearts have a real problem with these types.

Raising money for charity doesnt gloss over an organisation with a name like "Loyal Gorgie" that thinks waving Tommy Robinson masks is a good laugh.



As an aside - has the idiot that threw the coin at Lennon been turned in yet?
