I'd like the club or the FoH to set up a dedicated bank account for us to donate all our ticket monies into. Monthly statements could be made public so EVERYBODY can see how much is in the coffers before its passed over into the club's proper account.



I believe it would also incentivise our support to pay into, knowing our hard earned is going in our own coffers.



I'd like to include Scottish Cup ties into it. Imagine 20k £20s in a bank account for a semi final thats probably going to be BCDs anyway, thats how you hurt the SFA... 😎😎

Just how much money do these chumps need to hand over to Hertz before they realise they are being played like a fiddle?

Their gullibility has no upper limit, the Romanov - Budge eras tell us that. There's a lot more cash to be blown yet.

I don't go onto oneleagueback but do read some of their mental prophecies on here and on twitter. How have saughton jambo, Dazjambo and Kiwidug***** amongst others fared after not one single comment from them has turned out to be right?

They are in denial and would never ever admit to anything.
They are a famous big establishment club remember!

I wonder if its being filmed in the style of "The Office" I mean they already have the Office building sorry I mean Glass Curtain,and I`d reckon old Budge will make the David Brent role her own,and I dare say the supporting cast of Levein,Mcphee,Stendell,Locke etc could fill all the other roles

Can just see Budge now;

"I’ve created an atmosphere where I’m a friend first, boss second. Probably entertainer third"

Sure I read somewhere that they've just declared themselves to be the anti establishment club?

Yes you'd think so, probably something along the lines of the council have just been on the phone to remind us we are an establishment club

I already know this will be my favourite TV series ever.

I think the opposite. I think it will be a slanted, one sided, propaganda tool. Martin Geissler isn’t it?

[Since452]

Wonder what the highlights of the documentary will be. There's so many to choose from.

The multimillion pound pitch being ruined during Edinburgh festival.

Levein being given the bullet then showing the new manager around the college campus.

Daniel Stendel pissed and not knowing who Hearts were during press conference.

Berragate

Stendel having a Christmas holiday then returning to lose the derby.

Obika

Reconstruction talks, court case, arbitration and relegation confirmed.

I've probably missed loads too. It's going to be more like David Brent in The Office than anything else 😂

Thing about doing it this way is that folk will know it’s not true and they will continue to be a laughing stock!

What they will ensure is that they are portrayed as the victim!

It's a shame it's the BBC and not the likes of Netflix doing the documentary. Especially if Geissler is involved.

It will just be a propaganda tool for them, like a TV version of sportsound, probably regular appearances by Tom English to "explain" things.

Geissler isn't going to be taking an impartial professional line on this, he was handpicked for the job and it's the massively pro Hearts BBC that's covering this.

They'll be awarding Hearts a medal by the time the shows over.

My understanding is that it is an observational documentary series with significant access behind the scenes at Hearts. How would you edit Hearts' season of failures, on and off the field, and Budge's incoherent and inconsistent ramblings in such a way that they come out of it in a good light? Also, Two Rivers Media has its professional reputation to consider. Alan Clements, the managing director, is one of the most respected and successful media professionals in Scotland and I would expect that the company will want to make the best documentary they can rather than act as a puff piece for its subject. Of course the BBC Scotland documentaries about Gretna failed to dig into the financial misdeeds behind that club's success but those were not in the public domain at the time and the programmes were not investigations. Hearts' problems are very much in the public domain. Budge will try to defend their position but she has been condemned time and time again by her own words and actions.

Imagine what it's going to like to see the Jambos hopes pumped up again and again only to have them dashed. The long, protracted process of signing their saviour manager ... the high of beating us at ER and the anticipation of getting off the bottom by beating St Mirren ...

[maturehibby]

To add to their financial troubles they will lose by my reckoning about £200,000 of the Hibs Green Pound by losing
Two fixtures against us

Dunno about the documentary but surely this is the time when Only An Excuse has the opportunity to finally redeem itself.

I mean, the comedy basically writes itself for this year's episode.

[Northernhibee]

I can't wait for the documentary. Episode one to the final episode will be absolutely gripping.

It's the start of the season and manager Craig Levein is giving a potential new signing a tour of Tynecastle.

"Aye, so this is the changing facilties, the toilets at the back. I had it made up to be like the toilets at Dens Park. It's my safe space and I'm not going to say why. Gives me the runs. Nervous reaction. Anyway, coming down this corridor here, past the building works, up these stairs, not those ones, they don't lead to anywhere, these ones. This is my personal trophy room from my career. Anne said I could have a room for it."

"Why's it empty gaffer?"

"No reason. Away for cleaning. Five one. Big team. Hubs. Anyway. Let's talk about why I want to sign you. Another team in this city rebuilt themselves from signings players who'd been highly tipped but lost their way a little and got them back on track. Scott Allan. Fraser Fyvie. Dylan McGeouch. Some wee guy who we released because he got injured. Don't know what happened to him. Wee team. Anyway, I heard you were highly tipped at your last club. Where was that?"

"Cowdenbeath gaffer. They thought I could be a supervisor in the pie stand but my catering training fell through."

"Ah, balls, I thought you were a fitballer. How much do you weigh?"

"Nineteen stone gaffer. I'm six feet three as well".

"Can you play up front?"

"Aye. I've been advised to say that Hibs have offered me a contract as well gaffer"

"In that case, we'll offer you eight grand a week. Six year deal. Plus unlimited foot rubs from that long haired MacFee bloke. And a box of partially defrosted Chicago down pizzas".

"Done deal gaffer"


Join us next time for the next episode of Hearts - twenty thousand leagues under the Hibs.

Maybe I feel better for the day it is today.
Maybe because the sun is shining and its warmer just as it was then.
Does it really matter, so long as there is and always is Heart of Midlothian FC.
Does it matter which league, which players, which manager, which owner.
So long as we have Tynecastle and one another we have something others really do long for.
The season saw taunts from virtually every single team. Why?
Take it as a complement.
Its because you matter, we matter, Heart of Midlothian matters.
No set of fans has gathered as one, and as regularly in time of need and distress.
That is envied, to the point no mercy was ever likely to fall our way. They don't have what I do, what you do, what we have together.
Covid will hang around for some time, there will be changes to our lives, there will be changes to our football.
Even the league we play in.
What never changes and never will is our enduring love and passion for Heart of Midlothian.
Don't ever let the envy, the bitterness and aggression wear you down and engulf you.
Stay safe, stay strong of body and mind.
We will see each other soon enough, we will find our way through the latest tunnel, we will succeed.
We are Heart of Midlothian
HHGHer soon enough, we will find our way through the latest tunnel, we will succeed.
We are Heart of Midlothian
HHGH


Couple of months old this one but still makes me giggle. What planet are they on?

The issue Hearts have is that their whole funding model relies on them being in a constant position of crisis.

FoH only came into being because of a crisis and to continue to grow it needs to feed on chaos and paranoia. They need adversity to allow them to beat the recruitment drum.

Covid and the subsequent calling of the season has actually given them reason to be.

Hearts rely on FoH, and the occasional top up from benefactors, to exist financially.

Stability would see a drop off in both income streams and a club which would have to be smarter with its income.

It is a vicious cycle that they will struggle to break.

Hearts over the last few seasons remind me of us from around 2010 to 2014. A rudderless ship, people who meant well just not getting it, managers who were ultimately out of their depth, players not pulling their weight etc, etc. It was tough going watching us then and the whole mood around the club was flat. Relegation might be a wake up call for them as it was for us but the big difference is we got to start with a clean slate, they're stuck with the people who got them there. Even their "new manager" is someone the fans hounded out for eye bleeding football

So it is the BBC and Geissler presenting no chance it will be as good as it should be.
