Neil McCann's constant rage may have a uniting effect and be exactly what they need to cultivate a 'Everyone vs Us' team spirit.

Probably all of them just to be on the safe side. Especially Brechin, who used their machiavellian powers to "avoid the same fate" as Hearts, Partick Thistle and Stranraer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 40 minutes ago, Doctor said: I'd have quite like Hearts if they'd went "Fair enough, we were shite, we're a big team and we'll be back" In 10/11 months time they'll most likely be celebrating a league title, having had a pretty enjoyable season where their fans went to some grounds they haven't been to for a while (or possibly ever) having banged in a fair few goals. They'll have a nice title party at a full Tynecastle and will go up with a decent bit of momentum and feel good around their club. Hardly the worst fate in the world. Actually, we'll probably see them bitterly crying at every game, with poorly written banners and shite 'f**k the SPFL' chants, and a furious impotent rage and 'get it up yous' to a bemused league once they win promotion. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only if the Tunnocks cup is still going and gets to the start line will they have the chance of boycotting Glebe Park 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll fall out with Naismith, who by all accounts pretty much controls the dressing room, within days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am following a thread on Twitter from Andrew Tickell (feed here) which seems to suggest they will attempt to get a judicial review, which seems rather unlikely to succeed to me. But as always with the law, if you ask ten lawyers you'll probably get ten different answers. But only the wee fat one will add stamp duty to his fee. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnydun Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Neil McCann's interview with Budge... "Right Ann, I know money might be in short supply to build a squad, however I have a great way in saving money on players. Let me introduce you to the EBT scheme...." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) You have to hand it to Ann Budge, Douglas Park, Scot Gardiner, Jacqui Low, that Falkirk gobshite and of course all their assorted ITK media hangers on who have made Neil Doncaster look like a four dimensional chess grand master throughout this saga. Other than the missing vote misstep they've been smacked around senseless by the SPFL for fully three months now and only Budge's pathetic legal challenge is still left on the board. You hate to see it happen. Edited June 15, 2020 by vikingTON 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Day Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Foundation of Hearts Chairman now showing his true colours with some inflammatory language. http://www.deadlinenews.co.uk/2020/06/15/foundation-of-hearts-back-legal-challenge-and-hit-out-at-rival-chairmen/ I suppose when Hearts fans start physically attacking other team directors and journalists some people might be able to join the dots? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Szamo's_Ammo Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 1 hour ago, Green Day said: It has to be said, there are some people in the media - Tom English at the front of the queue - who really need to take a step away from the keyboard. He is on twitter today all teary eyed about Hearts (as is his choice), but also seriously badmouthing other clubs. I think that once this is all over, uncle Tom might find certain doors closed to him forever. His jilted teenage girl act didnt work with the majority of club chairmen, but he continues to double down. He'll have nowhere to go but back to rugby once Budge ejects him from her support bubble. Shame. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Van Tee Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Surely a woman with the vision won't rush in to appointing someone like Neil McCann. Maybe a period with a caretaker manager would be a prudent course of action with somebody who knows the club inside-out in charge on a temp basis. Maybe someone like... let me think...
