Anyone in the know, know if there were any?
I heard very strong rumours that Hearts were sending scouts to every Championship game on Monday. Confirmed by this I am guessing: -

Hearts plan to buy British

With a number of our players having SPL links, I am just wondering, if the worst does happen on May 6, whether or not guys like Hammell, Gower or even Maher & Macca would be targets?

Sounds like it could be our match - Prob also looking at Preston stars - SPL might be a good place for Noooge.

Imagine if Fredi was to go and play in Scotland - thats two new languages he'd have to learn !
 
There may, or may not, have been Scouts there.

What I do know is that listening to the game on the radio I had Brownies in my pants.

Should have kept the faith & not ripped up your ticket then :p :hilarious:

50 bonus points for being the first to hint at that kind of meaning for "scout", I knew we wouldn't make a full hour without someone doing it!

And to think a few years ago you were trying to get in the pants of Brownies :)

I did not rip it up, it is still fully intact, and will reamin so, as a lucky omen. And, therefore, will hopefully, Guide us through to seasons end.

I think you should frame it!
Here's hoping it will be a truly lucky omen!
Maybe if it all comes down to last game of the season you shouldn't go to Southampton if you've already got a ticket?
 
Slightly disconcerting post for me. As i read it, I am being accused of paedophilia?;)


Must admit - only thought about that possible interpretation after i posted it . But then if you already had brownies in your pants ....

I shall tempt fate and go to that one. Not least as I've forked out the best part of £350 on the Grand Harbour Hotel for the weekend.

Are you going to that one Glasgie ? Ryanair to Bournemouth maybe ?

All set to book flights/hotel/tickets for me & the Mrs but fate stepped in and my mate offered me a Maximo Park ticket for the Saturday so alas as money is a bit tight just now I decided to be frugal and not blow £150+ on one weekend. Gutted now, especially as aformentioned mate (a Hartlepool fan) is now not coming either as he wants to see them get the L2 trophy on the same day! :(

Here's an offer you can't refuse then -Take the first flight out of Prestwick and I'll pick you up at Stansted on Sunday at 8.20/8.30 am .Will drop you back in time for the evening flight back . You just need to source yourself a Southampton ticket .

Very very tempting!
Let me get back to you!
