City members that have memberships will generally go regardless. I suppose a book will be published sometime in the future that will deal with all the statistics of the club. I'm unlikely to be around to read it, but I really would like to know how many of the Heart Foundation Members are still with the club. I am, but there have been many times when I have wondered why. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CityWildcat Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Foundation shmoundation. Let's see 80-90% of the 2016-17 members TURN UP FOR GAMES other than the Derby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't even in the country then. First matches attended in the 11/12 season. Slowly built up since then. Have to admit that however much I love the old red and white days, before I had to deal with the murky moral uncertainties of Middle Eastern wealth, I've been much more inclined to want to come to matches when we've had good players and we're playing good football. And this season is our first year of full membership. But I think I've got to the point where I probably am rusted on enough now to keep coming if we do get crap again. And I've done rusted on, years of mediocre, successive relegations type supporting in the UK in League 1 (old Division 3) for the past 30 years, so my acceptance of mediocre and success free is quite high... 26 minutes ago, CityWildcat said: Foundation shmoundation.

xXJawsaXx Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Not quite a foundation member, I actually started out with a 5 game membership in 11/12, then opted to get a full one in 12/13. I have renewed every year since then (Except for last season due to being overseas). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSK_47 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) Fondation member. I think the perfect summary for me supporting this club over the years was when i receivied an email informing me that my monthly payment for membership had bounced with an an attached banner containing my photographs the club had used for the season three advertising campaign without telling me.
