We shouldn’t get relegated because we invested money in the team what fucking planet is she on?? That’s an embarrassing statement, hope she has been taken out of context by headline writers!

Well that will be a NO from Celtic, just need one more and we’re in the Championship. I wonder where that will come from 😂😂 Good move by her imo, it keeps the divide with the old firm and could provide much needed leverage and a bargaining chip. Offer title to Celtic in exchange for yes vote or the opposite to Sevco. Certainly not winning too many friends and influencing people with her statements!

The FOH Speaks
FOUNDATION OF HEARTS
Dear Pledger
This email comes at a time of huge challenge with the ongoing public health crisis, and let me begin by giving all supporters the very best wishes of the Foundation. Please do stay safe and stay well.
Unfortunately this huge challenge for society has been compounded for those of us in the Scottish football world by the incompetence displayed in recent days by those in positions of authority within our governing body. At a time when we expected individuals with influence and power to provide leadership and innovative strategies to support our footballing community and bring it together, sadly we have witnessed actions which have delivered the very opposite. We expected better, but today the Scottish footballing community is divided and is beset with rancour and suspicion.
I think we can all share the club chairman’s view that we are disappointed and bitterly disillusioned. We can, too, welcome her statement that the fight goes on. In this, we stand strong with the club. Hearts supporters know what it is to be knocked down, to be battered and bruised. But we also know what it is to face the challenges together, to rise again, and to come back united and even stronger. On this front, I should also report that the Foundation was able to increase its payment to the club this month on the back of increased pledges.
After battling through the challenges we faced only a few short years ago, I would ask that we continue to be united and continue to demonstrate the extraordinary resilience and spirit for which Hearts supporters are rightly renowned. We, the fans, remain the one true constant. Let’s stick together, let’s stick with our wonderful football club, and whatever may transpire over the coming weeks and months, let’s show the world that we are, as ever, always Hearts.
Thank you.
With kind regards Stuart Wallace Chair, Foundation of Hearts

The issue with 11.1 in my opinion isn't about the old firm. They will still play each other 4 times. The issue is going to be the lesser clubs like for example Ross County, whose chairman I have just heard tell BT sport that he didn't think reconstruction was possible. The lesser clubs in a 14 team league will only get one home game against each of the bigger teams, whereas now they will get 2 against some of them. Also, if it is only a temp reconstruction and we have to relegate 3 or 4 teams next year the test door is bigger. It also dissipates the prize money

Next season is unlikely to get a full programme so a league of 14 or so could work. Yes it's only 26 games playing each other twice but a perfect timetable for a season up to 3 months short. A full season starting in July looks to be very unlikely indeed.

I think we’ll be playing in the Championship next season, anything else will be a bonus.

I'd rather we played in the championship, the SPL is a fucking joke.

If they demote us and we win the legal case then what? They pay us a lot of money on paper. Do they have that money?

APPARENTLY!!! Our tv deal is heavily dependent on 4 OF games so playing everyone twice will prob not get a positive vote. Its all about the money, nothing else has any meaning to the majority of clubs and blazers.

Tits First mistake is listening to .net Second mistake is thinking 1 reconstruction solution will be made could still end up with status quo Third mistake is thinking reconstruct is only available for next season

Someone has to lead the taskforce and it cant be the uglies but as said by others, seems a bit strange having the Chairwoman of Hearts, the team with most to gain/Lose, and the one individual outside Ibrox calling for an Independent enquiry, leading it. So when it fails the feckers can say, well it was YOUR taskforce that failed, dont blame us?
There is no way in Hell Anne's Task Force is going to propose anything other that keeping Hearts in the SPFL, albeit cloaked under a save Partick Thistle banner. All it needs is 2 clubs to say 'Fuck You Budge' - that'll be Celtic and Aberdeen.
