Wonder if that's why ST are being released so early? If demand was there for full season tickets in the away end then could justify cutting their allocation next season.

Doubt the demand would be though.

They pay for it anyway.

We can justify cutting their allocation since we’ve got about 8 thousand fans giving money to hearts every month for free, and they are vile pricks.

It can’t just be about money at this point, Budge has made it clear there is no room for that behaviour in tynecastle so maybe go after some key offenders rather than taking it out on normal folk who want to stand at the game.


Not really sure it matters who pays for the damage. The fact is they come to tynecastle every time and wreck the toilets and break seats. Just because Celtic pay for it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be punishing them further for it.

Not sure that would go down very well considering we often damage ER, Celtic Park etc. too though. People in glass houses.

Weird that a Hearts fan would be sitting in with them.

We don’t often take 3000 to parkhead and sing about the UDA so I suppose even though it’s a minor detail there is that too.

The level of damage caused by OF fans, particularly Celtic far exceeds any damage caused by any other travelling fans. It’s not even just tynecastle, they leave the place destroyed wherever they go. Suppose it’s no hassle at all if they’re paying for it though Warnock

If Hearts fans are trashing stadiums then Hearts should be punished as well, there's no excuse for it at all.

All no doubt would fall under this nonsense strict liability fear from the clubs that people will infiltrate in order to get other teams punished :Monty Ha

Aye it’s a bullshit argument as well.

Surely what it would do would give the clubs more incentive to find the individuals responsible and ban them so their entire support isn’t being shamed.  I’m fairly sure if hearts were fined for trashing seats and hearts could prove it was a hibs fan at it for example, then the fine/punishment would be moved to hibs.  

It’s such a weak argument I don’t even know why it still sees the light of day Laugh  Everytime something happens in Europe “it was rangers/Chelsea fans!!!!!”

We do and we are, it's simple.

No big conspiracy here, my point was that we'd be best not making a massive about the trashing of seats and toilets. Much better to go after them for all the other behaviour.

Historically the Bullingdon Club would trash and cause a lot of damage where they dined. They deemed it acceptable because they would simply write a cheque to fix the damage.

The sneering entitlement of the wealthy and privileged.

Monty Oh Well

We should massive reduce their allocation. It gives them a massive advantage and they sing about the IRA for 90mins.

That's only half the problem tbh, they're not interested in really dealing with the issue because of the inevitable abuse they get, I don't completely blame them for not wanting to get too involved in it for those reasons, but at the same time nothing will get done about it if it's not properly highlighted.

Pozzie. Absolutely bang on point.

I don't give a fuck about the money when it comes to slashing their allocation. We're not some tin pot outfit like Kilmarnock or Motherwell that needs to whore out their ground to the old firm just to break even. As you rightly say we chuck plenty money in the club to cover the shortfall. Record season ticket sales, sponsorships etc, and FOH pledges mean we don't need the old firm coin.

Get them to fuck. If it means sticking everyone's season ticket up by 20 quid to cover the cost then so be it. It shouldn't come to that really but I'm sick of them getting a full away end. In this day and age we don't need it, we don't want it and there's no financial need for it.
