That's odd. I thought I saw them there in 2015 ?

Wasn't he called Blair?

I had a quick look at the Hearts documentation this afternoon, and the short answer is "no". In fact the Foundation of Hearts documentation says explicitly that the Foundation will not interfere with the running of the club. The ICT Supporters Trust already has 10% of the voting rights. Would be interesting to know what level of supporter involvement would be felt to be appropriate.

I was thinking that you might have to incentivise people, by having a draw every week and returning some of the money to the fans. Say 10%, which would be £250 to £1000 given the figures above. Then I remembered the Centenary Club. I have no idea how it does, and I'm not asking you to tell us. But maybe you could get some idea from it how much money a new scheme might take in. Although two apparently competing schemes might not be a good idea.

If we lose on Tuesday, we are still in 4th place, with everything to play for. If we lose on Sunday, we are out of the Scottish Cup. So if we could only win one, I would choose Sunday's game. Yes, I am ignoring fitness/injuries, fixture congestion, etc etc. As a supporter it's easy for me to want to go for everything. But I assume that the club and the team want that too.

Kick off is 4:30, so they'll have to go home for their tea.

Winning that cup initiated the good run to the end of last season. Don't knock anything that can boost a team's confidence!

Whilst not disagreeing with you, I'd be surprised if there was anything in the rules of the competition which permitted the SFA to do that. I assume the rules of membership of the SFA would allow them to penalise - or eject - a club whose behaviour was substandard. But, as with any disciplinary procedure, I'd expect there to be a series of warnings of increasing formality and seriousness before any action could take place. The club might also take the SFA to court - although apparently defending sectarian abuse would be an interesting brief for a lawyer! Surely these are public order offences? Can the police not take action?

I thought we could be in trouble the other night when Walsh went off after 15 minutes, and McDonald came on for him. But, from the radio commentary, it sounded as though he did well. But then he was taken off in the first period of extra time. Wonder what the reason for that was?

Funny looking football strips

"Jeez! You should feel how warm this one is!!"

We're thru 5-4 on penalties!

Hope you're wrong!

BBC webpage says there are over 1600 people listening online. Doesn't sound as though there are as many as that in the ground. Make some noise!!

Thanks for that. I have found the MW schedule, and, yes, it IS listed. Will be available on the BBC Sounds radio streamer. I'll be listening - so make a lot of noise!

I can't find it listed online. Radio Scotland is listing "Get It On" with Bryan Burnett between 18:30 and 21:00 on Tuesday. So unless Colin Campbell is doing a commentary on Radio Bettyhill...

Can't see it anywhere in BBC TV or radio listings Does anyone closer than I am know of any coverage?

That's basically what I was trying to say yesterday - except that I looked only at the worst case of coming straight back down. As well as the boost to finances, it would also give the team experience of football at the higher level. That would clarify who could make the grade and who couldn't - and would also identify those who have the desire to make the grade versus those who don't. If it was a referendum, I'd vote for promotion!

Has anyone actually said that the chairman plays any part at all in player movements? If so, I've missed it.

What harm would it do if we went up and then came straight down? Assuming we didn't stupidly overstretch the finances in an attempt to stay up. Increased revenue plus a parachute payment for the following season, to be balanced against demoralised players and coaching staff (and supporters). I understand your point, and I'm playing devil's advocate here...

Wish I had a quid for every time over the years that they have lost a goal immediately after the restart. Do they get mogadon at half-time?

And didn't you all say a while back that when we try to play it out of defence, we always lose the ball too close to our own goal? Not having seen them play for a while, but having read all the comments here, I was quite surprised at what I saw last night. Better - maybe quite a lot better - than I expected. But it's clear that apart from the likes of Ridger, Tremarco and Doran, there is very little quality in the side. There's no always-dangerous striker - just a bunch of guys who might get lucky and score. There's no rock-solid dependable defender - the wheels can come off at any time. But there's naivety as well. Why blast the ball over the bar from 30 yards when you're one up with just a few minutes to go? Take the ball, get over to the corner flag, and dig in. They can't score from there. Time and again I've read comments here about how the other side "conned the ref" or made the most of a situation. Now I don't want us to start cheating, but a little more cunning, more street-smartness - let's even call it "game management" - could compensate for a lack of footballing quality. Though how you impart that to the players, I do not know. Given his tactical stubbornness, I can't see JR doing it.
