Can't see this being a Hearts fan, my bet is one of those pesky Hibs bois with their unrivalled patter.

I'd be surprised. It doesn't quite feel like the style of any Hibs regular.

Definitely someone at the windup though. My guess is it's one of your newfound leaguemates in the Championship.

Is there no end to the way Hearts have been harshly treated?

It's like the whole world is against them!

When will the cruel insufferable injustices stop and allow this shining light of Scottish Football to do as they please?

Must be the only non fan that actually agrees with us

Heart of Midlothian Football Club can confirm that we were advised at 4.30pm this afternoon of the decision of the Joint Response Group to delay the return to training for clubs out-with the SPFL Premiership and that as a consequence, Hearts were required to cease training with immediate effect. 

We requested a delay to the publication of that decision, while we discussed the implications.  While the situation was being discussed internally, the decision was published, some 20 minutes or so later. 

While recognising the hugely complex decision-making processes involved in dealing with the Covid-19 crisis, the Club has nonetheless objected to this decision in the strongest terms. 

To be clear, we had previously requested to return to training on 3rd August to fit in with our training plans and needs.  Along with a Betfred Cup campaign and Championship season to prepare for, we also have a Scottish Cup semi-final to participate in. We confirmed that we were able to comply with all the required protocols, which we have done.  All other Championship clubs were given the same opportunity to return to training.  They chose not to return at that time, as was their right. 

Having received authority to return to training, we built our plans around the agreed date.  Our players and support staff were taken off furlough; contracts were signed with new staff and new players on the clear understanding that we would be in full training.  We signed contracts with service providers, including Oriam and our Testing company.  Testing has once again been carried out this week, with costs incurred, in anticipation of continued training.  Suffice to say that at a time when every football club in the land is managing its costs as tightly as possible, we have incurred significant “unnecessary” costs. AS DID DUNDEE UTD, RAITH AND COVE DUE YOU TAKING THEM TO COURT

We have done nothing wrong and yet, once again, we are being disproportionately disadvantaged AS WERE DUNDEE UTD, RAITH AND COVE DUE TO YOU TAKING THEM TO COURT by a decision which has been described as “the fairest”.  We should not forget that this situation has come about, not because of Covid-19, but because of behavioural issues, not by our employees but by those of other clubs CAUSED BY HEARTS .  This delay reflects a lack of confidence that certain clubs will be able to comply and meet the required protocols.  How can it possibly be “fair” that we should be penalised? JUST LIKE DUNDEE UTD, RAITH AND COVE DUE TO YOU TAKING THEM TO COURT 

When questioned in what way this was “the fairest way forward”, we were advised that some other clubs now wanted to return to training and it was deemed that by preventing them from doing so, without halting our training, would give us an unfair advantage. 

Our fans are naturally incensed by this action, especially given what has transpired over recent months.  AS ARE FANS OF DUNDEE UTD! RAITH AND COVE DUE TO YOU TAKING THEM TO COURT ETC ETC ETC , GET YOUR OWN HOUSE IN ORDER BEFORE YOU TRY AND PLAY THE VICTIM AND DONT EXPECT ANY SYMPATHY FROM ANYONE UNTIL YOU DO

Yes,have to agree with yourself Spot-on. Another little thought I wonder what the odds are for Hibs to beat Hertz by more than 3 goals and Nesbit to get another hat-trick?

Its training. Hardly goni give us an any bigger advantage over Dundee and Morton FFS, have you seen either of they sides play football?

Dundee have been league champions of Scotland during my lifetime (as have Aberdeen, Celtic, Dundee United, Kilmarnock & Rangers)

Hearts haven't. Just like Morton.

Hi everyone. New member here and I just had to get this off my chest. WHY ARE HEARTS BEING PUNISHED when its clear Celtic and Aberdeen are at fault. 

 

I have kept a note of everything the SPFL/SFA have done in the past 5 years which hasn't benefitted us and I'm happy to share it with anyone that can help build a case towards dare i say it an SPFL/SFA *Conspiracy* against us.

Could Hearts be any bigger bellends?

[Cauliflower-HMFC]

Do Greenock Morton actually have any fans?

[Florentine_Pogen]

Could Hearts be any bigger bellends?

Someone asked this after the arbitration fiasco.
The answer then, as now, is obviously YES.
