Heartsofgold

An understandable position but let me put this to you....would you rather we brought 700 paying £20 per fan to get in or 2000 paying £15 net to get in? Not to mention the increase in stadium income and the extra spent at pubs/clubs/shops. I'm not saying that we still would not bring 2000 even if ICT didn't offer the cashback but this helps foster good, healthy competitive relationships between fans. We will probably not forget the teams that helped us out under very difficult circumstances.

Oh aye!! Well done for a brilliant result at Parkhead yesterday, shame you could not hold out for all 3 points!!!

Hi guys, just a visiting Hearts fan looking in but I wanted to post a reply to this post. I think this is a brilliant gesture AND a good piece of business for ICT. It looks like we will be taking a good travelling support wherever they go this season but there is a good chance the away crowd will be boosted if the home team do something like this. There is nowt wrong with rival clubs taking advantage of us as we are more than willing to spend the money if even a wee bit come back to Hearts is some way. St. Johnstone and Partick Thistle also offered money back for each away ticket sold and were rewarded with a bigger than average away support in each case. As mentioned, Hearts and ICT have always had a good relationship and I think we will bring 2K+ up next weekend. Last but not least, the money refunded all goes to the 1874FF (fighting fund) NOT directly to HMFC. It is being used to help with things like stadium repairs and other critical issues. Here is a link to their website http://www.1874fightingfund.com/ Once again , thanks for a great gesture from a very well run club.
