Came accross a belter of a thread called why do other teams hate us?

Hate is a strong word obviously, however the replies really do answer they're own question if they wanted to look for the answers!

Arrogance, Self Importance, ignorance to financial doping, Snobs amongst the several other reasons. Maybe have a wee look through what you wrote, think how that transfers to your actions and to how you are perceived as a club and a bit of self reflection will give you the answers you seek!

Livingston like them. They have come out in favour of a 14 team top league and no relegation this season. Tinpot club.

Who was the player a few years back who said in an interview that if a player signed for Hearts they were often treated differently by their fellow pros? He said that as a club they were not well liked and regarded with suspicion by players and it was always assumed anyone who signed for them only did so for financial reasons.

It was a fair while ago now and I think it was in the print edition of one of the Sundays. Something in the back of my mind is saying Campbell Money was the player but I could be wrong.

I think the tone of JKB over the last few weeks is a good illustration of why the fans of other clubs dislike them. They think that everything that's been going on in Scottish football is all about them - they really think that all the votes and all the allegations of corruption were about Heart of Midlothian FC. They get a lot of attention on here because they're our local rivals and they're getting attention from the fans of other clubs because of the noise they and their daft owner is making but the truth is every single club that voted in the recent poll did so either in their own interest or the interest of football as a whole. Not one of them gave a single thought about how their vote would affect HoMFC, nor will they care whether HoMFC's fans boycott games next season - despite what they think at all levels, they're just not that important.

My feelings towards Hearts are rooted in disdain. They are an annoyance I wish I didn't have to think about. I don't feel any pity for them, in fact I actively take pleasure when misfortune befalls them.

I hate Rangers. I find Hearts to be an irritant. They are like the guy that comes to the pub that is always full of the next big scheme, exaggerates previous successes and talks down to others. Everyone knows he is really a bit of a dick. No one really hates him nor do they pity him; they just get a sense of pleasure when it all blows up in his face.

Their fans have surpassed themselves in the last month. They genuinely think other clubs, including us, are voting with Hearts at the forefront of their minds.

They’ve bleated on about self interest and sporting integrity but Anne Budge thinks the whole of Scottish football should temporarily (!) restructure purely to save Hearts.

It beggars belief and the self importance bit is reminiscent of their new found pals Rangers in 2012.

I know folk have a wee soft spot for these two teams, but I don’t particularly like either of them. Would be delighted for them to implode and for us to stay in the Premiership as a result. Their business models are built on selling out their stadia to the OF.

The definition of a superiority complex is an inflated sense of being better than others. An example of a superiority complex is the feeling of self-importance that causes a person to constantly talk about how they can do everything better than others.

The fundamental issue Hearts fans have is that they have tried to build themselves a niche as a 'big club'. They have adopted a bizarre pomposity with their 'the famous' chat and see themselves as being superior, bigger and more important than other clubs in the country.

Where they hit the buffers is that the only conclusion one can draw if taking their delusions of grandeur at face value is that they the biggest under achievers in world football. They have a grand total of 16 trophies in 146 years, there was a period of almost half a century in which they failed to win a single trophy, they have won fewer major trophies than Aberdeen, they have won the same number of league titles as ourselves and Aberdeen (and only 2 more than Dumbarton ffs), less Scottish Cups than Queens Park, have never won a European trophy and in the overall honours list in Scotland they lag 99 trophies behind Rangers and 94 behind Celtic.

By no discernible logic can that record be interpreted as one of a big club and by no obvious measure can they claim to be a successful club. It could be argued both ourselves and Hearts have under achieved over the years; the difference being very few Hibs fans claim to be something we are not.

Hearts have been painted as conservative and dull and that's exactly what they are. They are pub bore of football clubs. Pompous, egotistical, self important and deluded. People don't hate them because they are envious of them, they hate them because of their complete inability to see themselves as others see them.

Why do teams hate them?

There are loads but the ones that spring to mind..

1. Their insistence on mimicking Rangers at every opportunity i.e maroon pound, Fenian blood etc. They really are wannabe huns which makes it worse than the real thing.

2. Incessantly claiming to be the 3rd biggest club in Scotland like it's an achievement. Nobody really gives a ****.

3. Robbing charities.

4. Knowingly employing sex offenders.

5. Their treatment of players like Berra.

6. Calling St Mirren "St Lie down" like it was their fault. Nothing is ever their fault.

7. Budge trying use the "greater good of Scottish football" as a smokescreen to squirm out of relegation. Sickening.

I don't hate Hearts ... my hatred is reserved for real life stuff, not for football, no matter paradoxical though it may sound, how much I love it and Hibs. I have a number of Hearts supporting friends who are top blokes, that's the truth of it.

But back to the football. They are disliked as a club for all of the reasons folk give on here. The self entitlement, the overblown sense of their own standing in the game, the failure to understand that having half a team slaughtered in a war isn't a football achievement. Fans of other clubs didn't fail to notice the lack of any ability to accept responsibility or blame in a situation they never voiced concern about or took any notice of until it nearly destroyed their club.

And worse, when it did their demands for sympathy from the clubs and fans they shafted along the way, with no sense whatsoever of how ironic that was considering the way they lapped up the the few trophies their cheating brought them and shoved it in the faces of other clubs and fans, not least of all us. Compounded all the more by selling themselves as a moral and financial example of how to run a club the second they had dragged themselves out of the mire, instead of shutting up and showing a bit of humility.

Being Hibs fans none of the above would matter to us, as another poster pointed out recently we have a duty to hate them, just as their natural stance as derby rivals should be to hate us. What should bother them and clearly does if they are starting sickbag threads about it, is that fans of other clubs dont like them either, far more than there is any dislike of Hibs.

I'm willing to bet without even looking at their thread that the main reason most of the posters on it will give is 'jealousy' ...... It's not that my Jambo friends, it really isn't, and the sooner you face up to that fact the sooner fans of clubs who aren't Hibs might have a bit of regard for you.

The jealousy angle they have adopted is an odd one.

A fan of my age will have seen Hibs and Hearts win exactly the same number of trophies. Go back to my Dad's generation and Hibs have won one more. What exactly is there to be jealous about?

Leeann is part of the working party to ensure the continuation of Scottish football whereas Ann Budge is on the "task force" solely trying to save herself. Certainly not doing it for the benefit of Scottish football as the temporary reconstruction she wants proves. Watch her flip-flop when most of her "task force" push for permanent.

First she’s got to read about previous reconstruction proposals and why they failed first, given that she literally hadn’t thought about this until last week.

Also, she loudly and rather crassly pronounced a few years ago that there are too many professional clubs in Scotland. I’m sure those in the lower leagues will have full trust in her.

When it looked like they were maybe getting liquidated, until big bad Alex pulled some strings, fans of other teams were not really interested what happened to them.

I’ve got friends who have ST’s at Hibs, Rangers, Celtic and Hearts. You can get a good laugh with the Rangers and Celtic fans - I can mock them mercifully and get the same returned to me but it’s always conducted in the spirit intended. The same can’t be said for those Hearts supporting friends. They just don’t engage in the same way, won’t accept any criticism or jokes at their clubs expense, but are quite happy to dish it out. It’s ever as relaxed or as much fun. If we lose a derby there will text messages from them almost immediately on full time and every Hibs fan they know is tagged in on social media posts as they gloat. I find with my Hearts supporting friends it’s best to keep football chat to a minimum, or at least Hibs/Hearts chat.

Hate is a strong word obviously, however the replies really do answer they're own question if they wanted to look for the answers!

Arrogance, Self Importance, ignorance to financial doping, Snobs amongst the several other reasons. Maybe have a wee look through what you wrote, think how that transfers to your actions and to how you are perceived as a club and a bit of self reflection will give you the answers you seek!

Here's a few suggestions:

Tinycastle - a complete dump and a health hazard
Gorgie - see above
That strip - it just looks grubby and probably smells
Supporters - see above
Poppy fund - stole from it
Charities - stole from them
Creditors - binned with no sense of guilt
Trophies - stole from pensioners, charities, creditors to purchase Scottish Cup (x2)
Sex offenders - happy to employ them
Style of football - hooooooooooooooooffffff
WWI - claim to have won it single handed

Redeeming factors - none

They are basically the Donald Trump of football clubs.

Success/fame built on sandy ground/the backs of others/money they didn't actually have.

Grandiose ideas and statements that have little to no grounding in reality.

Prickly and childish

Nasty history of decidedly unsavoury morals/ethics (cf Gary MacKay "allegedly", their Billy Boys young team etc)

Absolutely 0 self awareness or sense of humour.

If anyone wants to see a full list of their creditors that they stiffed, it's HERE (https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hearts/hearts-list-creditors-full-1566016)


It includes the following...


Big Hearts Community Tust £34,048

Scottish Ambulance Service £2,464

NHS Fife £739

NHS Lothian £75.70

McCrae’s Battalion Trust £100

Lady Haig’s Poppy Factory £185

Heart of Midlothian Shareholder Assoc. £5,000

Heriot Watt Sports Village Ltd £145,663

HM Revenue & Customs £1,881,065

Football Safety Officers Asc. £200

Edinburgh Council (Chesser House) £90,715

Edinburgh Council (For Flats) £2,631

Scottish Police Authority £18,585

How those at ECC could allow that amount of debt to accrue whilst they chased OAP’s who went into 2 or 3 months arrears is disgusting.

Here's a few suggestions:

Tinycastle - a complete dump and a health hazard
Gorgie - see above
That strip - it just looks grubby and probably smells
Supporters - see above
Poppy fund - stole from it
Charities - stole from them
Creditors - binned with no sense of guilt
Trophies - stole from pensioners, charities, creditors to purchase Scottish Cup (x2)
Sex offenders - happy to employ them
Style of football - hooooooooooooooooffffff
WWI - claim to have won it single handed

Redeeming factors - none

Jesus, sitting here sipping my coffee and read the WW1 comment - coffee everywhere!!!

They are basically the Donald Trump of football clubs.

Success/fame built on sandy ground/the backs of others/money they didn't actually have.

Grandiose ideas and statements that have little to no grounding in reality.

Prickly and childish

Nasty history of decidedly unsavoury morals/ethics (cf Gary MacKay "allegedly", their Billy Boys young team etc)

Absolutely 0 self awareness or sense of humour.

I could go on but that's enough to be getting on with.

So, are we now calling them 'trumps' 😁

They seem to be boycotting nearly every ground next season
Latest one up is Ross County, think they forget they won’t be visiting Dingwall on league business next season

Interesting in what James McCabe said in his interview with Si Ferry that players only sign for Hearts to make a fast buck with little or no emotional attachment whereas at HIBS he thought we were a proper football club with a real Stadium and Training Centre and that he really bought into us

Then again he also said that looking at both squads he had more chance of starting with HIBS than Hearts ???

Only club in history who think its not fair being relegated if you finish bottom because you spent loads of money trying to avoid that.
