Ffs, they've had the equivalent of 5 min of a 'Bad patch' when you compare it to the time those low-life lorded it over us !!

I suppose it's now obvious that Eddie and Richey were Jambos.

Starring Mrs Budge as Dan McPhail, Potter as Parahandy the captain of the ship and wee Dougie in the father Dougal role.

Presumably the yacht won't be picking you up from Leith docks - so you'll have to get yourself there and back as I don't see any mention of flights. Maybe they'll use Romanovs private Ryanair plane.

Anyone fancy going for it then going into administration when the bill arrives?

Sheer desperate measures from our Pink chums once again.
Will appeal to their backhander pals the Roseberry's only I would think.
An absolute embarrassment of a football club.

Anyone else remember STF auctioning off 2 years free servicing and a set of michellins when we built east mains?
Naw, me neither #weeteam

I am surprised by the standard of the writing in the promotional material. I also wondered if the notion of Mrs Budge having a yacht would put the Hearts fans off but a quick glance at Kickback suggests otherwise. Somehow the auction to win a week on the boat in order to raise funds to build their stand has added to their sense of superiority. Baffling. Like others on here, I do question the sense of having an auction for the big prize. As a separate raffle, it makes sense. Say five to ten thousand folks having a pop at a fiver each. As an auction only a very rare few can get anywhere near the value of the trip so it's possible that it won't actually raise that much cash - unless she has a bidder lined up. One can only imagine that she doesn't want an ordinary Jambo family to win that trip of a lifetime after all.

Here's one in the South of France which starts at 20k€ per week with crew.

If you have the dosh to begin with, it's not that much of an extravagance to own one. One of my (sort of) bosses has 2 boats - one that he keeps locally and the other one is currently moored in Barcelona. Mooring/port charges and maintenance can be quite expensive, but he rarely loses much money on buying and selling the boats themselves.
If you rent it out for charters, it can become an investment - a bit like residential property.
The gesture from Budge herself is fair enough IMO.

Why does the evening news article read like a sodding advert for this? Was surprised not to see the photo Number, link to the website and suggested minimum offer as well!
We surely cant be far from budge literally just having collection agents complete with card machines at the turnstiles every fortnight? Just empty your account and pockets now, and save us wasting time and money coming up with another ruse to part you from your cash.

Like a few others have mentioned I think it's a reasonable gesture by Budge. I also think she's made a big mistake trying to auction the prize rather than raffling it. Could have raised far more cash that way. Don't really get some of the mocking comments on here. It's a cracking prize - but only a select few will be in with a shout of winning it.

I particularly liked the comment online from some wag saying the hearts will be changing their anthem to "we are sailing"
