Broken Hearts issue ultimate snowflake statement over crest attack

Hearts have issued one of the most pointless ever club statements.

Tynecastle was used for yesterday’s Sky Sports Cup Final featuring the ladies teams of two Glasgow clubs.

Social media coverage of the away dressing room showed that a crest of the club founded by Charles Green in 2012 had been placed on top of the Hearts crest on the floor of the home dressing room.

Apparently that left many Jambo fans emotionally distressed, after sharing their grief and trauma on social media the club responded with a completely pointless statement:

Heart of Midlothian Football Club is aware of images circulating of the Tynecastle Park home dressing room at today’s Sky Sports Cup Final.

Although the club hands over the running of the stadium on the day to the competition organisers – the SWPL – we were involved with pre-match planning. We would therefore like to assure our supporters that we did not approve any request for dressing room branding in either dressing room for either club involved.

It is extremely disappointing to learn that our wishes were disregarded. How this came to be is a matter for the SWPL and Rangers to sort, but needless to say no explanation will be satisfactory in our eyes or the eyes of our fans. Nevertheless, we will demand answers to ensure that our club crest is never defaced again.

It is also regrettable that this action has taken away the focus from what was a successful cup final and another opportunity to grow women’s football in Scotland.

Although both sets of supporters are very close ideologically a lot of Hearts fans are resentful that the Scottish football authorities have sat back and allowed the continuity myth to go unchallenged.

While Ibrox fans walked away after failing to find a sugar Daddy more than 10,000 Jambos put their hands in the pockets and paid up over five years to get a CVA through.

Every month supporters paid £18.74 to the Foundation, currently they have 15,000 pledgers, with the CVA paid off the funds are now directed towards infrastructure projects freeing up the activities of the club for the purchase of players.
