The generic Hearts thread

That’s good for us. Hopefully most of them remain there. If they do then I’d say they’ve a decent chance of ****ing up promotion next year. They almost always got beat against all the bottom sides in our league, I wouldn’t be surprised if they struggled against the top half of the Championship as well.

Based on their performances against Falkirk and Partick in recent times too I would fancy the championship to be a lot tighter than they may anticipate. Especially with them having to probably flog off their 'better' players to balance the books.

That benefactor wasted an absolute bomb.

Spoke with a work mate today on the phone. Total Jambo, Hearts season ticket holder for around 30 years. We discussed work issues mainly and how we can get around the CV19 issues when we go back. Towards the end of the call he said didn't want to discuss football at all, totally embarrassed by his club. They aren't all entitled fruit loops.

Thats a good point Kato, we tend to think brokeback is a reflection of their total support, when its just a concentration of the very worst of them.

I don't think Stendel will be back. I suspect there will be something in his contract that allows him and the club to cut ties which I think will happen.

On another note he seems to be escaping most of the flak for how terrible they were under him, seems Levein and Budge are the main culprits in all this.

MS pointed this out in his recent article. Stendel had enough time and was backed in January, but his lunatic tactics nearly cost them all three points against Hamilton at home and he’s copping no flak from the flumps.

Stendel gets off lightly with them. As it stands his reign has been a complete disaster. They got worse under him.

Well imo they wouldnt have been near relegation had they kept Levein.

Don’t worry Levein will get them back up. It might not be very entertaining but he has to earn that big salary somehow...

Hearts traditional style of play is completely suited to the 2nd tier in Scotland. Roughhousing.

You suspect correctly stendel and hearts have a relegation clause allowing both terminate contracts.

What also might effect hearts when in the championship is the league may not kick off at all.
Every effort will be put into getting the premier going before the rest.
Seems to have been a very quiet day for statements.

Once football up and running we should initiate The Integrity Cup - either just 2 legs with us and Partick or include other clubs impacted by or who opposed the self interest some additional income - us Partick Falkirk and ICT

The Integrity Cup 😂 you couldn’t make it up.

I think you’d struggle to find someone who disagrees with that. IMO with Levein in the charge they pick up points, it ain’t pretty but it would be better than Stendel.

They’re making such a song and dance about it being an ‘expulsion’ too......I wonder if they’d have the brass neck to invoke relegation clauses when they’re refusing to recognise it as such?

The creditors cup would be a good idea, all ticket sales money going to the Lady Haig poppy fund, Scottish Amubulance Service, Macraes Battalion trust, Big Hearts and other similar bumped charities.

Wow.
They have no memories or no brains.

Can we have a permanent thread on here showing the full list of creditors they shafted and they can see it everytime one of them floats over for a look and also for anyone on here to easily copy paste anytime they might need it.

Never ever let them forget.

The Sanctimonious Invitational.

Alongside the football, they can give out moral integrity medals to each other.

Apparently Budge has offered to host it at Tynecastle Park - but this has NOTHING to do with the fees, ticket sales and hospitality earnings, and is purely out of a desire to support other clubs.

Great idea. I’m gathering they are going to play the players they forced with the sack unless they took paycuts while competing in this integrity cup? Get Romanov or Moonbeams to present the trophy.

But it's just not 4pointsback, is it ? We've had politicians, ex-players, lawyers, Ann Budge, media hacks and BBC commentators all squealing like pigs and generally stoking up the nutters who inhabit that swamp.

Why let the truth get in the way of a good story, in 2015 when STF paid off BoS wether in full or part, the Government had less than 20% of the shares in Lloyds Banking Group and even at its peak it was only 43%, so they were never "tax payer owned"

Hardly the same as robbing poppy charities, Lithuanian pensioners and countless others

Hearts are such a basket case, their own fans don't know where to start. Budge's stewardship, keeping Craig Levein on, recruiting Stendel, Stendel's abysmal management, the players horrendous performances, the rank awful recruitment, the massive over-spending, the bloated player pool, the hyper inflated wages and on and on. You'd struggle to find one part of the club that's functioning properly.

Yep, I've had that conversation with a numpty who goes by the name of Ali HIBberd on twitter. I'm waiting for the official end of season announcement before I point out how difficult it must be for him to write his name. 😂

I know, but the great think is they are creating some sort of siege mentality and blaming everyone bar themselves. I live in hope that this means they continue to stumble on with business as usual.

Wow, the bitterness!

It’s perhaps revisiting that time nearly 20 years ago though: back then Scottish football had recent memories of participating in a World Cup, the game was still just about in touching distance with the top leagues (although a gap had already opened and was widening) and clubs were spending money like crazy...

Then the TV deal debacle happened and suddenly things were different.

In 2002/3, both Hibs and Hearts has debts around £17-18m each. Both had spent money on their stadiums in the 90s but redevelopment was not complete. Neither owned its own training facilities.

The clubs considered a ground share, but when that idea collapsed they faced a choice. Do they accept the new, relatively impoverished reality, or do they ignore it and hope the money just keeps coming from somewhere?

We know how it went after that.

[Greenworld]

So who thinks Hearts will take Legal route or now back down

I think they will not take legal action and fall into line.

As has been pointed out on many occasions, UEFA does not look kindly on clubs going to the courts other than the Court of Arbitration in Sport.

Personally, I hope they do go to court because they're very unlikely to win and the costs could be horrible.
