Need some help from fellow Hibbies on this one. Had a conversation last night with one of the deluded who states;
1. They own part of this (he was not sure how much) as it was a joint venture - not as far as I know but.....?
2. I raised the rent that was unpaid why would you pay rent if part owner, he states they have a 100 year lease and can/will never be thrown out?
3. States they have access to / use of everything at oriam and can use it whenever they want?
Any input guys, I will go back with a comprehensive set of answers.

Sport Minister Shona Robison announced that £25 million from the Scottish Government's Young Scots Fund would be put towards a new multi-sports centre which would include a national football academy.[2] Universities, colleges and local authorities were invited to bid.[3] By August 2013 there were three finalists.[4] In September 2013, it was announced that the design by Reiach & Hall was chosen.[5][6] The remaining £9 million towards the cost of building came from sportscotland, Heriot-Watt University and the City of Edinburgh Council.[7]
The yams contributed nowt and rent the same as anyone else, that lot are fantasists,

The funding was from the Scottish government which was about 25 million. An extra 9 million was raised by Heriot Watt and Edinburgh council I believe. Don't think Hearts put in a penny as this was about 2013 and cash was a bit of a problem for them then.

As far as I'm lead to believe, Hearts only own the main academy building and nothing else!

Hearts were to be partners with Heriot Watt years ago when the facility was first discussed. They were to use the money they got from SMG to finance this but spent it all on players instead and pulled out of the Heriot Watt deal at the eleventh hour. I don't they own anything at all at HW and rent the facilities like any other customer.

Maybe they own the Forth road bridge instead? Vlad probably sold them it, or maybe they've bought it on the never never from Mrs Budge?

They also use a crappy wee part of the gym with old equipment. They don't use the main gym that's available for students.
They have to fit training sessions around netball and Pilates etc.
They own nowt of it.

Oriam I think is a different thing from the original facilities and I'd understood Hearts don't use it?

It was built through funding from the Scottish Government, HWU and CEC.
Hearts had to renegotiate renting facilities at Riccarton with HW when they came out of administration,having owed HW around £150.000.
Hibernian also rent/hire the Oriam.Last edited by Mick O'Rourke; 14-08-2017 at 10:07 AM.

Scottish rugby and the Scottish national side are above them for use of facilities. Can't remember the full hierarchy/ranking but it was an SFA person that told me this when I was at a meeting there a few months back.
