Hope it eases up! I am about to fly to San Fran this morning and then drive round the area for 3 weeks. Fingers crossed for a quiet time stateside and a nightmare time for that lot at Gorgie!!

You need to find a hibs ex-pat up there to see the game. It's at 4.45AM on Fox Soccer Plus and it's not likely you will get that channel in your hotel. Try to hook up with a hibby in SF before you go. I doubt any bars will be open then to show it, but I am not from SF and there might be some British pubs showing it. Failing all that, hibernian tv will show the video stream to foreign lands (not the xtra channel that shows home games). It will be under live game link on hibernian tv page then you press the button that says continue.

Try Nepenthe or Post Ranch inn for eating if you travel down to Big Sur which is a very interesting Scottish like place in California.

Sausalito is a nice day trip out of the city.

Embarcadero and Tenderloin is where everyone heads and so should you, but there is more, much more for eating, drinking and celebrating the approaching Jambo doom.

Use http://www.livesoccertv.com to find out what games are being shown while you are here(remember to set the time to PST)! :greengrin

It certainly appears to be the case. Deflection and denial.

FWIW Hibs losing football matches. even to them, is not the worst thing that has ever happened to me and if it was I would have dumped Hibs some 30 years ago.

If. however, Hibernian had conducted themselves in the manner that Hearts have, along with the disrespectful and disparaging comments of their supporters aimed at others whose only mistake was to trust that they would honour their commitments and are now paying for their limited success, I would never return.

Whilst your looking on here in indignation trying to find someone to blame and making a big noise remember the noise you made when Vladimir Romanov was dismembering your club - it went like this, "yes, Mr Romanov, no Mr Romanov, three bags full Mr Romanov".

Everything that has happened to your club is the fault of those who welcomed him in and licked his boots: Lord Foulkes, Leslie Deans all the way down to that guy who fell down the stairs that night, that's who to blame.

Hope the cake baking goes well.

Any further delay beyond the end of April would have more serious consequences than yesterday’s postponement, as BDO would be in danger of running out of funds. If and when the CVA is completed, BDO could conclude the sale of the club to the Foundation of Hearts.

But that appears to be only a minor technicality ,nothing that can't be quickly sorted by issuing a new memorandum of understanding ,as someone has obviously not understood the previous ones .
BJ can't have done that good a job out there if he left some minor technical detail unresolved that's resulted in yet another temporary delay in pursuit of the holy grail that they still can't acknowledge ,The Frozen Shares.
Could be that some across there are wondering why this particular part of Romanovs Empire are being bumped up the Pecking Order by Budgie and her hangers on .There must be some with Integrity that are now starting to question this rubber stamping ,green for go process and rightly asking why is this getting precedence and why the rush , and realising maybe there is something to be gained at thier end by putting a fly in the ointment .Once they receive the Technical Detail they need ,they might persuade others this iis an attempt by Hearts at further cheating and creditors are being shafted .
What we do know is that January has become February has become Marxh ,has become April and now they are saying May.The common denominator is that it keeps getting pushed back Very Pleasing Indeed:wink:

Not just charities - the UK taxpayer is over £2 million out of the pocket due to the tax-dodging activities of HMFC. Not to mention the unpaid Council tax, police fees, rent to taxpayer-funded Heriot-Watt. The list goes on.

Someone should tell the UK ambassador he's paid to stick up for the UK taxpayer, not the tax dodgers!

Presumably, though, His Excellency will be politely told that things have to be done according to the rule of law, something a certain football club thinks doesn't apply to it.

He'll be humouring the diddery old pretend toff drunk ! Just a touch

If true this is disgraceful and well beyond what is reasonable. It is clear that certain politicians will go to any lengths to try and save a disgraced bankrupt institution.

Tax payers pay his wages and Hearts didn't pay their taxes. That is a scandal. What did he do for Portsmouth?

Typical yam response... "can't wait to be debt free and fan owned"

No your not going to be DEBT FREE if you come through this - you have taken on another debt and will be still paying others back.

You won't be fan owned either - Budgie will be in control and that is far from fan ownership!

So pishy breaks gets folk to run along and beg to the Lith government to help his "poor little innocent club". Believe me they have bigger things on their plate right now and I'm sure he'll be told to **** right off!

The folk that lost their jobs the charities that were shafted over must be raging at all this. Were was the begging then? When real people earning a living and charities depending on money needed it? They were cut off and told "see ya."

Heart of Midlothian have became the laughing stock of football. The lowest of the low so to speak, hated by almost every club in Scotland with their bullying ways. Well it's game over, you are DYING, and I'll be just one of many happy Hibees when they do.

Someone should ask him if today, rather than attacking tax havens, does he use them?

Fortunately I'm nowhere near Twitter so crack on if you have an account - I seem to recall years ago he was pretty much ostracised from Islands that were known tax havens due his political verbal assault on them.

Mind he's a man who claimed expenses on property he inherited so don't expect a moral backbone.

My source is telling me BDO are worried. Where before they have been pretty open and honest, now they are just giving the minimum of information. A couple of other staff tried to ask about the problems yesterday and we're told to concentrate on their work and leave this up to BDO.

He reckons the liths have now cottoned on to what's happening in terms of getting ripped off and are doing something about it. He believes the "lack of technical detail" is BDO not providing the proof that this is the best deal for the Lithuanian creditors. They want independent valuations and proof the club was advertised for sale correctly. Remember FOH wasn't the highest offer BDO gave a set date for providing proof of funding that turned out to be irrelevant. BDO's desire to get this done and dusted quickly has meant they've been wasting time since November. He reckons the liths think BDO should have been doing more to get more money rather than just taking the first offer. He says it's clear to him BDO have been caught up in the romance and ended working for Hearts rather than the creditors.

A few other notable things from the discussion:

BDO have asked them to be prepared to "go back to the well" to keep them afloat.

BDO's fees aren't up to date yet.

Staff are worried their jobs will go even if they do survive as it's been made clear Budge wants to cut cloth. She's not interested in football success, she just wants to keep the club afloat.

Great stuff CWG. I don't have one little bit of sympathy for sports Hacks in the MSM. They may have been out of their depths but all these organisations have Financial and Legal desks and it wouldn't have taken too much effort to involve them in the story, so why didn't they?

Thanks, as usual, Baj. Not doubting your source, but am going to play my usual Devil's Advocate here.

It's not BDO's job to provide proof that this is the best deal for the UKIO creditors. That's the UKIO admin's job. If there are no "independent valuations", then that's HIS fault, not BDO's. If BDO have managed to convince him that the offer is a good one, then I would suggest that BJ et al have done a good job. In that respect, I think the creditors' guns are pointed in the wrong direction.

In terms of the advertising for sale, I would agree with that. Remember last summer when the assets were advertised in the FT? That felt strange to me at the time.... I don't think that process was managed well by BDO at all.

What your source does confirm for me, though, is that the UKIO creditors are doing THEIR job properly. It's been a mantra of mine for some time that "this is not the admin's call, it's the creditors'". It seems that that is being borne out.

Looking back at the BDO interim report, page 5.

Whoever is to blame, it is a major miscalculation at this stage in the game. There has been plenty of time to get all the necessary proof (indy valuations, offers etc) to support the £2.5M BIDCO offer. BDO should have anticipated that serious questions would be asked about the value of the main security, so were either naive (unlikely), mislead by the UKIO Admin (possibly) or trying a fast one !

If the CVA is rejected and the PBS sold for much more than the derisory £2.5M offered by BIDCO, then questions will be asked about both Admins performance/behaviour.

My accountant/administrator friend has always maintained that PBS was the BIG IMPONDERABLE !
They will know the exact commercial value of Tynecastle and he reckons that it will be held on to for as long as possible to make sure the best " deal" is secured


" It's not BDO's job to provide proof that this is the best deal for the UKIO creditors. That's the UKIO admin's job. If there are no "independent valuations", then that's HIS fault, not BDO's. "

Agree with this but one has to remember that the two factions will meet/talk/discuss on a regular basis and many things can be said over a cup of coffee !!
As I have posted I had some involvement with the Mercer/Gray,Duff events and there were many " fringe meetings " between so called

Nope ! I think we learned from the Rangers farce , Administrators work firstly for themselves.

After that their main task is to save the business , even one like HOMFC. If at the end of the day there are a few buttons left the creditors should be grateful.

The mistake made was appointing an administrator in the first place. The creditors should have gone straight for liquidation.

I wonder if the Ukio Admin. has told the creditors they will be lucky if they see £1 million up front from the sale of the £ 50 million asset.

They wanted to show Lithuania that the property was marketed, but they also wanted as few people as possible to see it. Then they could trot along and tell the motherland that there was no interest.

Coupled with a ludicrous valuation of £2.5m, and stories of hoardes of Jambos obstructing any new development, all of a sudden Lithuania thinks they have an almost worthless piece of property.

If it wasn't for the bitter hobo putting them straight on the previous valuation of £22m they might have got away with it.

They wanted to show Lithuania that the property was marketed, but they also wanted as few people as possible to see it. Then they could trot along and tell the motherland that there was no interest.

Coupled with a ludicrous valuation of £2.5m, and stories of hoardes of Jambos obstructing any new development, all of a sudden Lithuania thinks they have an almost worthless piece of property.

If it wasn't for the bitter hobo putting them straight on the previous valuation of £22m they might have got away with it.

Maybe the UK Ambassador to Lithuania needs to be put straight too........

But presumably the Hobo wouldn't have been so bitter had they financially doped their way to 5-1 on taxpayers, charity and poppy money, so they've only really done it to themselves. Which is a bit like only owing to themselves, I suppose.

They're not working for the creditors, though. Their primary function is to preserve the company as a going concern.

And no sin, either...... it's good to challenge someone who's only 2 pages ahead in the book. :greengrin


Which, for me, would suggest that they tried to unfreeze the shares for Portsmouth and failed. The different, more lenient, penalty applicable by the English FA should not have been a factor. In theory at least.

I keep forgetting this basic thing. Doesn't seem fair on the creditors to me, though.

Insolvency isn't fair on anyone. (except those who make their living from it, of course......)

The basic premise of the law, as far as I can see, is preservation. Preservation of jobs, of future tax revenues and, if they feel inclined, a customer for the old creditors.

It's not perfect, of course, but we've yet to come up with anything better.

Could it the the Lithuanians work to a different set of guidelines than we do here in the UK?

Maybe the technical issues are a lack of understanding between BDO and the LT administrators and then between the creditors committee, i.e. the CC expects evidenced materials, the LT administrators, who all but joined in the yamfanfare, knew that's not how it works in the UK and BDO thought they'd get away with it.

I think the problem is that the creditors haven't actually seen Tynie and can't believe that a football stadium can be worth so little. They've probably googled football stadiums in Edinburgh and are sitting drooling over pictures of Easter Road.

Friends in Vilnius this week told me that it's a real scandal and the authorities want to make 100% sure that they are following each case closely. The collapse of both organisations have had a significant impact on capital investment in the country with a lack of confidence in the banking industry and government regulations. They believe this situation will lay out a foundation for the future so the international community can be confident that the country is not run in a corrupt way.
I'm not sure we should read into the technical details mentioned they are simply being very cautious..it would be nice to think that there is additional conspiracy but I think it's a matter of wait and see and no one really knows ,,but we can live in hope!

'FLIGHT FOR SURVIVAL'
Jackson mission to try and save Jambos deal.
Bryan Jackson will make an emergency dash to Lithuania in a bid to save Hearts' takeover deal.
Jambos insiders fear Ann Budge's buyout plan is in danger of collapsing as Baltic creditors hold out for a bigger pay-off.
Now money man Jackson is poised to fly out for face-to-face talks aimed at staving off the threat of liquidation.
Hearts could be relegated today if they fail to beat Hibs. But there are even graver fears after the Jambos failed on Friday to get the green light for Budge's BIDCO takeover.
Dissent among creditors saw a crucial meeting put back to April 7 - a move that throws Hearts' future into major doubt. Sunsport understands some Lithuanian creditors are unhappy with the £2.5m deal they agreed last November because of Budge's fortune.
Since agreeing to the proposal put forward by fans' group the Foundation of Hearts it has emerged that Budge - an Edinburgh businesswoman worth £40m - Is bankrolling the deal. She will buy the shares through her BIDCO 1874 vehicle and become chairwoman, before gradually transferring the holding to the supporters over a period of five years.
However, the sudden appearance of a multi-millionaire has caused unrest in Lithuania, with some creditors reported to feel the deal they agreed to is not the one they have ended up with.
Sauliu Bank, one of the biggest creditors, is believed to be unhappy with the agreement.
And it's feared they could now ask for more cash before they release the stockholding.
If that happens then there is a real chance Hearts could be liquidated, since BDO only have enough money to operate until the end of April."

If this scenario is correct, and it seems feasible, then the yam really only have themselves to blame, they continue to try and deceive by undervaluing the asset and trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the very people they have already bumped so they can fiddle it on the cheap for themselves.

Financial subterfuge is at the heart of everything they do still. They do not seem to understand that because of their past and their present reputation people will check what they are saying and doing.

It's hard to blame the victims here if they want to find out what the development value of the site really is. A major own goal from the yam was to start blabbing about their latest saviour and how much money she has and what she is going to do for them - same as their approach to Vlad really.

Not sure he has any scope really. IF he cant convince those creditors holding out for more money that the ridiculous 2.5 million is the best they`ll get, then the CVA goes belly up and Hearts are back to square one. Liquidation would then be the only option i think.

Was there not always a danger that by 'exposing' Ann Budge that somewhere down the line her fortune and the meagre offer would filter across the sea to Vilnius ?

It now puts her in a very horrible position in that she wears the 'saviour' badge, yet the Lithuanians sound like they are now intent on squeezing her for more money - she refuses, she is then vilified....she agrees, she pays far more than she anticipated and it thus ties her in longer or reduces the capital Hearts have on the football front ?

Wonder if they will be allowed a second chance to buy the whole mess for what its really worth, after a proper current valuation has been done? In competition with anyone else who wants to make an open market offer of course. That's how a disposal of assets on behalf of creditors should be done.

I thought that myself, however if they do liquidate then surely the challenges would come from The Rangers and the authorities would be under huge pressure to go down the Div 3 entry route and throw football into chaos again in summer ? She may of course make a killing getting it for buttons but are the football consequences not far outweighing the financial cost ? Is it not better to be in the Championship with Rangers, get promotion via winning it or play off, and thus giving them a chance to be in an SPFL in 2 years that has all the 'big hitters' ?

The creditors in Vilnius have looked at how much she negotiated for the sale of her IT business and compared that fortune to the pittance of £2.5m which FOH are offering for an asset previously valued at £22m (and a football club worth £6207).

I'm pleased for the Lithuanian taxpayers that someone has spotted that selling an asset worth £22m for only £2.5m to someone who is worth £40m may not be a good deal.

Or has £19.5m been deducted to reflect the true value of the best youngsters in world football?

I don't think there is time to organise a "second CVA", if that's what you mean.

I was hinting at a straightforward liquidation sale, open house auction style with a well publicised invitation to offer. Always the best way to get the best price for the creditors I feel.:greengrin

I thought that myself, however if they do liquidate then surely the challenges would come from The Rangers and the authorities would be under huge pressure to go down the Div 3 entry route and throw football into chaos again in summer ? She may of course make a killing getting it for buttons but are the football consequences not far outweighing the financial cost ? Is it not better to be in the Championship with Rangers, get promotion via winning it or play off, and thus giving them a chance to be in an SPFL in 2 years that has all the 'big hitters' ? If it is the big L and Newco Jambos it has to be division 3 - or worse

I don't get your argument. Hearts are going out of business and as our oldest and biggest rival I think it would be odd for there to be no interest. It's also still a running story, we know they won't be in the top flight anymore that's obvious, but will they even exist anymore?

As for concentrating on our own problems, well sure we can. There's countless other threads discussing just that. If you really don't like the subject why not just give the thread a body swerve? For the rest of us it's big news.

Isn't this a bit of a red herring now? As a example, Vlad bought the old bank building on St. Andrews Square for £20m and its now valued in the region of £4m. I recall reading an article in the EEN when the empire collapsed and this figure given. May not be fact could be the "EEN understands" but my question is, is Tynie worth £20m given what would require to be done to bring it up to development status? The land is def worth more than £2.5m but reality?

We would hope not given they are in this very business. BDO, FoH and Foulkes are using tactics that it seems the lith admins aren't going to fall for it. Friday was the first real chance they've had to look over this and make a decision and they said "something smells fishy".

I am sure that with a number of small contributions from netters, we could commission a desk top valuation for the land at the PBS from the likes of Ryden.

Cala aren't interested anymore as they have shifted their model to high value detached houses. Tesco are unlikely to be interested either as they are developing the smaller convenience shops. In any case, that area is now saturated with Supermarkets.

The most likely source of a buyer would be from down south. They would not be influenced by any political nonsense and would see the potential of a piece of land so close to the city centre. BDO said in their report that it would fetch £7.5m without the distilllery issue (which we know is nonsense) and the hordes of marauding football thugs (similar nonsense).

I would think that at £7.5m, the budgie interest would disappear like feathers off a dead parrot. It could conceivably go for more though and, if I was a creditor, I would want a truly independent report free of any BDO influence.

Platini will launch a full blown EUFA investigation if British Government Officials force through the CVA in Lithuania. It will be seen as State Aid giving Hearts an unfair financial advantage over their Champions League rivals Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Juventus.

According to the BBC red button text service 'BDO are waiting for UBIG's 50% shareholding to be transferred for a fee of around £2.5m.'
Really??
Bet u didn't know that - clowns.
I see the clowns have dropped the story from the main football headlines and amended the Round the UK Scotland article to omit the nonsense about £2.5 mil. £50,000 isn't it?

Serious question does any Hibs fan really care what happens to Hearts anymore ?
They will be in Div 1 next year (hopefully we wont join them) and probably for a few seasons more.

Hibs have their own problems and I simply cant believe any Hibs fan is still bothered about Hearts plight.

Folk who say if i am not bothered why post? Check I have maybe 4 post on this thread and none for months I stopped caring a long time ago.

IMHO this thread is getting embarrasing we should let this thread drop away and concentrate on our own problems.

This thread is informative and a healthy diversion from our own problems.
What I find embarrassing is that Scotland's MSM do not have the guts and/or motivation to research and publish information readily available as highlighted by CWG and Bajilions et al.

I'm still confident that in the absence of the 'rubber stamp' and the 'green light', 'common sense' will prevail. After all, if Hearts are liquidated then their trophies might be rescinded, resulting in Germany claiming WW1 & WW2 and everybody having to wear jackboots. China, who dominate the shoe industry, would hold a gun to the head of the west. Nope, way too much at stake here.

EEN - "Hearts administrators BDO will enlist political help in an effort to save the Edinburgh club following crunch talks at Tynecastle yesterday" bla bla bla. It goes on to say Foulkes has already petitioned Lith's UK ambassador for help & is "helping" arrange for Jackson to meet him in person this week. "He admitted he was concerned about the prospect of Hearts being liquidated if the shares are not transferred to prospective owner Ann Budge in the next few weeks, despite a CVA being agreed in November." HO HO HO. They are s******* themselves now. Foulkes running around trying to make out he is the saviour when he was instrumental in them being in this mess in the first place. I know we don't have our problems to seek at HFC, but thankfully nowhere near as serious as this. Pleasing. :greengrin

“If we move towards liquidation, the creditors get nothing at all. It should be in their interests to agree this CVA as quickly as possible,” Foulkes told the Evening News.

Still peddling this nonsense in the hope the Liths will forget about the security on Tynie.


:agree:

This is now the official phrase to be recited by all, in an attempt to deflect reality. It's now been said by Foulkes and Murray, and is being repeated ad-infinitum on the Scotsman comments.

Not the first time they've tried this. The Lithuanian ambassador for the UK was over here a few months ago and Jackson tried to set up a meeting. His request was ignored. I think Lithuania as a country have more pressing issues now than a couple of mil from Escotia !


What a fat slavering eejit Foulkes is.

"If we move towards liquidation the creditors get nothing at all". Actually Georgie boy they'd get more from liquidation than a cva. RoasterThat is a bit hash on slavering eejits.


Seriously Baj what odds would you give for

Hearts exiting admin prior to the start of next season

Hearts still being in admin at the start of next season

Hearts being Liquidated before the start of next season :wink: Oh can I play this game ?


Technically 1 & 3 go hand in hand. I'd give 500/1 on #2 though. would give short odds on 3 days after the season finishes.


“If we move towards liquidation, the creditors get nothing at all. It should be in their interests to agree this CVA as quickly as possible,” Foulkes told the Evening News.

Still peddling this nonsense in the hope the Liths will forget about the security on Tynie. Not quite true, one creditor will, relatively speaking, do quite well.


It ain't over till the fat self-serving politician squeals.... or gets Colin Nished


I am sure that with a number of small contributions from netters, we could commission a desk top valuation for the land at the PBS from the likes of Ryden.

Cala aren't interested anymore as they have shifted their model to high value detached houses. Tesco are unlikely to be interested either as they are developing the smaller convenience shops. In any case, that area is now saturated with Supermarkets.

The most likely source of a buyer would be from down south. They would not be influenced by any political nonsense and would see the potential of a piece of land so close to the city centre. BDO said in their report that it would fetch £7.5m without the distilllery issue (which we know is nonsense) and the hordes of marauding football thugs (similar nonsense).

I would think that at £7.5m, the budgie interest would disappear like feathers off a dead parrot. It could conceivably go for more though and, if I was a creditor, I would want a truly independent report free of any BDO influence. It will disappear at about £3.5m in my opinion


The Hibs.net financial dudes told us this eons ago. Why thank you- keep the faith


Rubbish they were out of admin before Christmas. A gasman told me!! That will be the first Christmas after the big L

They cheated and lied their way into administration and now they are trying to cheat and lie their way out of it. All too believeable.

I also note that house prices near the Tram fiasco are to increase, given the PBS is close to the Murrayfield stop could raise a bit move value. Could be the only 'good' aspect of the tram!!

The maximum value of the PBS can only be ascertained when the site has been completely cleared, and any stigma attached to depriving the Famous of a home has been removed.

Developers will be able to work with the planning dept. to get the maximum value from the site.

in other words get Scotdem in before advertising the dump. :greengrin
