Are they taking pictures of the stadium to flog off to Hearts fans before they knock it down? :dunno:
CVA Meeting put back until the 29th - according to Bathgate on twitter
Which was the date for their shareholders meeting apparently, which would then have required a 30 day cooling off period for any accepted CVA so they will now be in to January at the earliest, assuming there are no more hitches of course.:greengrin

It certainly goes against the notion that everything was all set to be agreed and the meeting was just a formality.
I hope there is only one reason but I'll let it play out before I get too excited. The Lithuanians have surely got to make them pay?

The delayed meeting surely indicates that they plan to reject FOH's bid?
Other parties involved who have indicated to the Liths that they will guarantee over 2.5 million maybe needing another week to sort out the structure from their end?

Not convinced this changes too much. It wasn't going to be fully approved until next Friday anyway at the shareholders meeting. If it's approved next week the cooling off period would end just before January...
That is, unless the bid for tynie separately has been made in which case happy days. Seems strange that the ukio admin requested a delay not ubig?
Suggests to me there may be some truth in it.
I'd find relegation and losing Tynecastle much more palatable than just relegation.

A MEETING of Hearts’ creditors scheduled for tomorrow at Tynecastle has been adjourned for seven days at the request of Ukio Bankas and Ukio Bankas Investment Group (UBIG).
Both Lithuanian companies claim they need more time to assess the situation ahead of a proposed vote on a Creditors’ Voluntary Arrangement (CVA), which would allow Hearts to exit administration if accepted.
If Banderson is right (yeah, I know) then the fact that it's both companies' liquidisers and not just the recently appointed UBIG one that want the delay is good news indeed. :wink:

Now that one developer has shown the initiative to jump into the process I would imagine others will be doing their sums with a view to doing the same - could get a bit messy.
You'd wonder why BDO hasn't already asked for expressions of interest, or somesuch, before now. The fact they want Hearts to be a going concern (to maximise value to creditors) should only mean staying at tiny till the end of the season IMO.

ADJOURNMENT OF CREDITORS MEETING
Following today’s announcement by BDO that tomorrow’s creditors meeting will be adjourned at the request of the administrators of Ukio Bankas and UBIG, the Foundation of Hearts released the following statement.
A spokesperson for the Foundation of Hearts said:
“We note today's news that the creditors meeting to consider a CVA, tomorrow is to be adjourned at the request of the administrators of Ukio Bankas and UBIG.
"Whilst we understand this is an anxious time for everyone involved in Hearts, we fully understand the request for the administrators to have more time to consider the proposal.
"The overall timescales do not change, and we remain calm, steadfast and focused towards our objective.
“The continued patience of the supporters is appreciated as we do all we can to get Hearts out of administration."
<ENDS>
Let's just do some very basic sums. The Liths have been screwed for upwards of £60m by HoMFC alone and the Ukio and UBIG administrators remits are to get as good a return as possible for their current creditors, who they are acting on behalf of. That's a simple fact. Not spin. Not bluster. Not Hobonomics. It's what administrators and insolvency practitioners do.
Ukio have the deeds to Tynecastle (or a floating charge) and that land value will have been assessed and valued by a 3rd party during the last 12 months or so, with various caveats regards planning and/or commercial/industrial use. I don't know what Cala valued the land at 10 years or so ago, but IIRC it was circa £16m. Even if the land has halved in value, why on earth would an administrator accept £2.5m? It's simply pie-in-the-sky logic. While BDO & FoH might be doing what's best for HoMFC in the short/medium term, unfortunately, they're not the ones who are calling the shots.
The Lithuanian people have been stiffed and the Yams will need to come up with a damn sight more than £2.5m to get there hands on the deeds of Tynecastle.

If this is indeed the case then do we think the Liths have had an independent survey done and realise that they can get quite a bit more than the measily sum put forward by FOH, for the PBS and land.... Or will they just take the money and do one??

The Lithuanian people have been stiffed and the Yams will need to come up with a damn sight more than £2.5m to get there hands on the deeds of Tynecastle. The Floating charge becomes fixed (crystallises) when the company goes into winding up or a recevier is app.ointed. So its now a fixed charge thus the creditor gains a real right to the assets. The assets from the original floating charge can be part or all assets dpending on the content of the charge at the time (guaranteed its all assets). BDO prancing about like they have hearts best interest, however, they were not appointed by hearts if i recall correctly.

The only issue that needs resolved to get planning permission for houses is the North British warehouse closest to Tynecastle. It's full of casks and would need to be emptied. North British were willing, in fact agreed to do this when Cala were buying the land. Cala however were giving the Distillery a bung of around £1m to make it happen. Land prices are on the up in Edinburgh again and any buyer who gets that land for less than £6m has a real bargain. The Lithuanians are either naive or daft if they accept the ridiculous offer being made to them but like a lot of us you get the feeling that Hearts are going to get very lucky and will somehow squirm out of the mess they are in.
Quick question for the experts/itk guys here, is it OK to call tynecastle "typcastle" and, if not, is it OK to call it "bumcastle"? Cheers.

If it's the only offer on the table then of course they are going to take it.
But it's not the only offer as they have security on the land/ stadium which is worth considerably more. (despite all the propaganda) What seems to be in Hearts favour is that the amount that they can recover from Scotland is a very small percentage of the overall debt and they may just take the paltry offer and wash their hands of it.

The Liths have been screwed for upwards of £60m by HoMFC alone and the Ukio and UBIG administrators remits are to get as good a return as possible for their current creditors, who they are acting on behalf of. That's a simple fact. Not spin. Not bluster. Not Hobonomics. It's what administrators and insolvency practitioners do.
Ukio have the deeds to Tynecastle (or a floating charge) and that land value will have been assessed and valued by a 3rd party during the last 12 months or so, with various caveats regards planning and/or commercial/industrial use. I don't know what Cala valued the land at 10 years or so ago, but IIRC it was circa £16m. Even if the land has halved in value, why on earth would an administrator accept £2.5m? It's simply pie-in-the-sky logic. While BDO & FoH might be doing what's best for HoMFC in the short/medium term, unfortunately, they're not the ones who are calling the shots.
The Lithuanian people have been stiffed and the Yams will need to come up with a damn sight more than £2.5m to get there hands on the deeds of Tynecastle.
It's also worth noting that the role of the administrators is to realise more value for shareholders than would have happened if the company were liquidated immediately - including taking into account the (sky high) charges of the administrators.
As with all administrators BDO charge handsomely for their work and a guestimate of £0.5-1m fees so far would be about right. That would mean £1.5-£2m left over for shareholders. The Liths are not fools and they will know that they can get more than that for the remaining assets.

But it's not the only offer as they have security on the land/ stadium which is worth considerably more. (despite all the propaganda) What seems to be in Hearts favour is that the amount that they can recover from Scotland is a very small percentage of the overall debt and they may just take the paltry offer and wash their hands of it.
Surely then others would try and follow suit, if Hearts can offer a paltry amount and get away with it then why can't we, do they want to be seen as pushovers!

To the extent of predicting the 'inevitability' of this CVA.

WhileTheChief..
21-11-2013, 08:01 PM
If it was as easy as that, why not just offer £1m? Or less?
My guess would be that they agreed on the £2.5M ages ago but couldn't do anything until UBIG had an administrator.
I've honestly no idea. But if half the stuff on here was accurate the media would be all over the Hearts situation. As it is there's a handful of folk on here saying that everybody else has got it wrong.
I would agree that there's a chance the CVA could fail but I find it hard to believe that BDO, FOH and the media have all got it wrong.
Maybe I'm just a masochistic Hibby!

If fellow Hibbies had jumped in, 7,000 of us could raise £3.5 million! Just to think that your donation was enough to finish the wee team off would be something to make you smile every day for rest of your life.
Pretty sure with the economic recovery in full swing, we could all have made a profit on our investment, biggest win-win ever. Lets offer £3.5 million now and raise the money, we can do this!!

The Media don't know anything that they're not told by Hearts. FOH have a vested interest in continuing to say that all is barry. BDO, I kind of agree with, I would rather they were more nervous right now but then I've never been that comfortable with the conflict between getting the best deal for the creditors and keeping the club as a going concern. I think that they would view liquidation as a failure on their part even if it got a better deal for UKIO.
Equally, I think if you've got a c£5.5M piece of land to sell then an advert in the online versio of the FT isn't enough to do to drum up business, though they (or UKIO) may have been more proactive in looking for a sale than we've been led to believe.
I still think that they'll struggle through unfortunately but I don't think that it's as cut and dry as some seem to think.

Biggest football creditor was David Cesnauskis , who was lent to Hearts because Lith. taxes were lower. That worked well.

I can see that they may not hold the football club responsible for Vlad's criminal behaviour but surely they can't be seen to give away assets at less than their true value. It's not as if hertz didn't benefit from the transactions that put their stadium in hock. Whether accepting the CVA is "morally" right is surely outweighed by their legal obligation to return as much money as possible to the Lithuanian taxpayer.

Why delay it for another week then if it's to be accepted? Surely something in that?
If tynie is indeed worth much more than 2.5M then we shouldn't be surprised of a higher offer coming in.Ruthless businessmen won't let an easy buck go.it's a dog eat dog world and Hearts are a poodle on a rottweilers breakfast plate.

HMRC have no influence ? HMRC have over 50% of the non-connected creditors vote which would block a CVA if HMRC vote against it. A no- vote is almost a certainty given the yam circumstances.
BDO know this and to prevent it the say UBIG and Ukio are now not connected because they too are in administration. This is a nonsense opinion with no grounding in law, regulation , or precedent and I would fully expect HMRC to appeal the opinion should it come to that.
There is no money in it for HMRC but they won't like their vote being negated by a con-trick or a piece of dodgy precedent on the record that may cause problems in other CVA cases years down the line.
HMRC could have a deciding influence if they so choose.

Had a look on the Hearts ticket site out of noseyness. They still have a lot of tickets left for tomorrow, have hardly sold a ticket for the Celtic cup game (remember Hearts don't have a cup top up so no seasons to mask figures) and not many have been sold for the Inverness game. It is true that when Hearts are not playing well their crowd, even at such desperate times like this, disappears. Big club, my arse.

To get back on track, the most relevant post of the last few days has been from Mikey. He simply questioned why the hearing had been put back a week.
Obviously there is something happening to scupper the CVA.
A bit of background info on Lithuania. It's economy had one year of deep recession (2010), after which is has shown remarkable growth, albeit with highish unemployment. The point here is that the Lith Govt are not desparate for cash; they are not stupid either and will not take a knock down price for an 'asset' that is worth more than is being offered.

So far it's clear that Hearts are still beating there life in them yet as they keep beating us Big Tell has a different mind set already so we want to be able to give them what the deserve a few holdings before they slink away to the first division then we want to cup them in the Scottish cup and hump them 7. 0 then couldn't care what happens to them after that :not worth
Thinking about it. Cold weather, it's on tv and decorating could be blockers though:greengrin
Back on topic. I was wavering last week thinking they were going to get off lightly in the usual football admin way but the mood has swung the other way this week with the latest titbit's of information.
I think they have a different attitude to sports clubs over there. Look at the way Vladimir mucked about his Lith football club, putting them down to amateur status, his high flying basketball club disbanded or something similar.
I don't think there's any good reason to think a foreign sports club, who have just robbed them of millions, can expect any favours.

Did anyone hear Brian McGlaughlin from BBC Sportsound pre our game. He was blustering as normal but did say that while yams hopeful, acceptance of CVA is far from a certainty and doubt remains. Given he is close to BDO bloke i would say we could have an interesting few days coming up.

I was talking to somebody in the office about this. He reckons earliest they will get outline agreement is end of december. Process for taking them officially out of admin will average 4-8 weeks but Lithuanian factor and also that bigger wider company admin going on (and focus in this) could mean 12 weeks. So lets say end if March best case!!!

December is going to be a big month for them. They'll be pumped out the cup by Celtic, and I doubt they'll get anything from visits to Parkhead and Tannadice, and might even receive two morale-sapping savage beatings there. They play St Mirren at Love Street, and have home fixtures against ICT and Killie, the latter one probably being a must-win for them.
The threadbare squad might pick up injuries around then, and I think there will be an intensely darkening financial picture. I'm hoping for the pleasurable fiasco of an FOH CVA, but I expect this won't happen, with the decision being further deferred (in which they are privately told to up their bid) and a prolonged administration with more begging to fans and businesses.
I really hope they make the 2nd Jan so that we have the opportunity to erase the embarrassment of the last two encounters, but I have to be honest and say I ain't confident.
And the share certificates still won't be issued.
Their next league fixtures are
Dundee utd away 7th Dec
ICT home 14th Dec

They've taken 4 points from their last 2 games when, on both occasions, they were losing while facing 11 men. Also, per reports they should have been buried in both games ( dons missing a pen ) before the sendings off. It's a temporary glimmer of light shortly to be snuffed out! :wink:

The others were also in areas the supermarkets wanted to build in, and where no clear alternative sites existed nearby.
Gorgie/Chesser has a few alternatives (google the Fruitmarket and Morrisons for one example) which reduces any rush to offer deals that are overly kind to a company now synonymous with charity theft

I just wish it would hurry up and happen, so a can dance on their grave :greengrin
No, totally different situation. Those clubs sold their stadiums and as part of the deal new stadiums were built for those clubs giving up their sites in the locations the supermarkets wanted tae build. h****s are not flogging their site as part of any deal, it will be being flogged by the administrators/liquidators tae pay off debts. And the ****s will also be eliminated. :greengrin :partyhibb :brokenyam: :hahaha::jamboclow
:-D
There's 2 words that don't get used enough in the same SEntence DD
Hearts and eliminated

This is why it's really no win for Hearts. If the ground is worth something for a developer then the rumours may be true and they'll buy it for £2.5M+.
If it's not then the yams find themselves playing football in the 1st division with a stadium that is falling apart, expensive to maintain and worth no more than £2.5M. There is no way they can save enough money to renovate or build a new stadium before the problems become too large to keep playing at tynecastle.

No problem I just thought someone might have heard something over the weekend. With Hearts being at home i thought there would be some gossip floating around. Some yam friends on Facebook posted some pics of themselves in hospitality which looked pretty busy.
Twenty folk in there would make it look busy :wink:

Someone mentioned the other day a site at 396-400 Gorgie Road was going on the market with planning for student accommodation for offers over £ 2 million.
https://citydev-portal.edinburgh.gov.uk/idoxpa-web/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=documents&keyVal=LQQP3PEW7N000
That will be the site, 0.61 hectares ( 1.5 acres ) and is about 1 mile further from town but does have a main street frontage.
The PBS is 6 acres and the offer is £ 2.5 million. Can Lithuanians do sums ?

There was a FOH Q&A tonight. Judging by the reports on kickback they're not quite as confident of a CVA anymore.

That`s certainly what the stadium`s worth. :agree:
Unfortunately for the FoH, the land their asbestos riddled, crumbling deathtrap sits on is quality real estate and adds a few million onto the asking price. :greengrin

I think they have been told to up their bid because they have received a better one than the £2.5m

CVA will be delayed for another seven days
CVA can't be delayed again after that
Nobody knows if cva will go through
Some ***** about budgeting for relegation
nobody on FOH is taking any salary etc
Investors are all hearts fans and not going to make any profit on investment

If Valnetas accept, circa 1.5 to 2 million for the whole kit and kaboodle ( which is likely to be about all they`ll get after BDO have grabbed their fees in full ), i`d like to be a fly on the wall when they give their explanation to the Lithuanian government of why they found that sum acceptable when they could likely realise around 3 or 4 times that amount in an auction. Especially as they`re owed around 15 million.

" If you have not pledged, PLEDGE!
- Get anybody you know who has not pledged, PLEDGE.
- If you have pledged, and you can afford it, PLEDGE MORE. "
Clearly, this is how a 'big' club operates. :faf:

Surely they could just get all the excess PLEDGE that Gary MacKay has left over after polishing his medals.

From the keekback....my comments in the black :greengrin
Possible further delay of 7 days for CVA..... shock
- CVA then can't be delayed further .....Squeaky bum time...
- Hopeful CVA approved but no guarantees...thought they were already celebrating?
- Investors all Hearts fans and not making anything for their investments....great people
- Investors not revealead....I wonder why!
- Investors to be repaid in 3 years when Hearts will be owned by the fans (once in a lifetime opportunity)...more loans and more debts - wonder what the interest is?
- Need to get to 10k pledgers (average pledge £16 per month)...still quite a bit away...
- Currently 7,600 signed up....muppets...what happened to the 400,000?
- Budget for next 3 years includes worse case scenario (relegated & out cups 1st round)..lets hope this happens and they come back to reality
- Marketing being delayed until CVA decision made...can't wait to see the marketing..
- If positive outcome more details and incentives will come out and marketing will go into full drive...exciting times...
- FOH doing all work in own time and unpaid....great...give yourself a medal
- Need to tap into support for skilled people (lawyers/financial advisers/business experts) to get involved...the way big teams operate
- If CVA agreed club still needs support, this is only the beginning and fans will need to keep supporting the FOH...can't see fans doing this plus a ST every year.
- Two boards, mirror image (FOH investors & FOH board) FOH board will repay the investment over 3 years....see above - loans and more debt
- Legal agreements being drawn up but not yet finalised due to legal costs..won't be cheap
- Money is there for the club to complete the season...great - we hopefully will see them relegated or even better relegate them when we play again at the PBS
- No budget for players (wheeling and dealing may be possible I.e free transfers but that is )..you can't sign players yet..your still in Admin...basically more kids...
- Gary Locke doing a great job under the circumstances...well done...relegation will look good on the CV
- If relegated season ticket prices will probably drop...doubt it
- TV revenue if relegated is unknown..basically not much...
- If you have not pledged, PLEDGE...begging bowl out once again..
- Get anybody you know who has not pledged, PLEDGE....CRINGE
- If you have pledged, and you can afford it, PLEDGE MORE. CRINGE...BIG TEAM = BIG TROUBLE
- THIS IS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY FOR US FANS TO OWN OUR CLUB AND SHAPE ITS FUTURE - short term plan...long term not sustainable.
That's about all I can remember.
