I also like what Sergey is saying but I still think that somehow HMFC or some variation thereof is going to escape the noose. Somehow or another they are going to get out of this and come out smelling of roses. Unfair and no way this should happen but somehow I think it will......

I'm more of a 'glass-half-full' than 'half-empty' type of person. My info on the situ has been almost spot-on in recent months (or Nov 8th 2012 to be exact) and I've not got any concerns that things will take a turn for the benefit of Yos Yambolinos in the coming weeks or months. This scenario could (and will) take months and if not years to unravel.

[Mr White]

Hope so. Just wondered why now he is never off ma telly and does photo calls at Swynie. Feel he is unlikely to do that if it was to blow up in his boat race. Although maybe he is getting high on the oxygen of publicity, plenty are of that persuasion.

Desperation as the end game approaches hopefully.

:confused: If a deal for £4m was agreed well before 2010 and the value of the land in 2010 was less than £4m and John Smart never overpays for a site, then shirley John Smart would have found a way to pull out of the deal? What you seem to be saying, as well as that John Smart never overpays for a site, is that John Smart has overpaid for a site!

I think you've missed my point! I'm pretty sure Smarts bought that site well before 2010. People will associate it with that date because the development was launched around then.

Just what I think.

It depends what you mean by escaping the noose etc. Not that long ago, and probably on this very thread, some were saying that HoMFC going into administration was wishful thinking, that they'd start the season with no points deduction and continue to offer better wages than anyone else. There might or might not be a HoMFC playing football next season, but their position as it stands is:

They have gone bust - entering administration is a result of that.
If they start the season at all they will be 15 points behind everyone else.
The squad that finished 10th last season has been significantly weakened.

Those three points are indisputable the following is almost certain:

They have spent all of their season ticket money before the season has started and are unlikely to get any finance to replace it.
Even if they did they are unlikely to be able or allowed to sign any more players before January at the earliest.
There is a strong possibility that they will have no stadium to play in.

They might not disappear off the face of the earth , like many of us want, but they are not in a good place and they sure ain't smelling of roses.

[TrinityHibs]

I think you've missed my point! I'm pretty sure Smarts bought that site well before 2010. People will associate it with that date because the development was launched around then.

Developers purchasing sites just prior to 2008 probably overpaid. Some also overpaid in 2009 thinking the market had bottomed out. The Robertson Avenue site was available for purchase even after Smarts had started on site. Smarts take a long term view of property that they keep so any over payment would wash through eventually. Your previous appraisal ignored affordable housing which would knock 20-25% of the land value depending on what deal was struck with a Housing Association.

Yep & that's virtually the same scenario I envisaged/questioned a week or so ago. I'm glad he finally explained the Danny Wilson scenario though & IMO basically confirmed he acted beyond his remit in signing him. If he thinks someone is going to pay £500,000 for DW 6 months after he was available for nothing then the brewery fumes at PBS are seriously clouding his judgement. Interesting scenario though in that best possible outcome for Yams is for them to sell their captain half way through the season. I guess that's what big teams do!

"Some variation" of Hearts will definitely be around. The best you can hope for is a shell of a club with no stadium playing at Almondvale.

If your aim is to see them completely disappear you are setting yourself up for disappointment. The death of the current incarnation of their loathsome club and years struggling to get zombie hearts back into the top league will do me.

I would be astonished if they knocked back anything like that. I think the highest bid they will get will be around £4.5M but I think that will be borderline whether it's accepted or not.

Think you are wrong there lucky - I too live in IM's constituency and have already told him directly my vote will be cast elsewhere due to his work with Hearts - not the fact it is Hearts, but due to him showing absolutely no contrition on behalf of Hearts at their mismanagement, non payment of taxes and the redundancies whilst employing rich footballers (regardless of what admin law states).

I've spoken to a fair few people who live, work and have companies in the area, many of whom have no interest in football - most don't have time for him and many that voted Labour are now considering other parties or not casting a vote.

I'd like him campaigning for more investment in sporting facilities, better changing rooms, more 3G pitches in and around public parks in Edinburgh South - not campaigning for an ailing football club who has failed to do what other competitor clubs have done bar a couple and that is pay it's dues. As with many politicians, for me his moral compass has gone array and been clouded by an emotional attachment to a football club.

I agree with this sentiment...most i have spoken to about this odious cretin feel that he is an opportunist so his dalliance with FOH comes as no surprise...i was told a story of his appearance at a family fun day independently organised by the locals in the Buckstone area. He pitched up with a stall and a few leaflets, had a few pics taken and then left...a few weeks later his monthly propaganda pamphlet, using newspeak, insinuated that he was a driving force behind the days event complete with photographs of himself at the event. Anyone who didn't know better would think he was in some way involved in organising the days activities. I know for a fact it left a bad taste in the organisers mouths as they felt he used them for his own gains.

The BDO guy mentions being unable to turn down a substantially better offer for the land for whatever purpose as opposed to a bid for the whole shooting match from a party after the 'football' club as a whole. Surely, it's his job to get the highest amount by whatever means, and he has to dissociate himself from allowing football to be a factor in any decisions, other than as a means to split any matching bids?

Nor does he seem to be breaking his ass trying to attract offers for the land as a single entity.

But, I'm confident Lithuania are pulling his strings.

You can be confident that he's doing everything he can for the creditors behind the scenes. That's his job.

That was also Duff and Duffer's job. How did that pan out?

[Eyrie]

Just received his latest update email - lots of the usual tripe (well, he does claim to be an MP) but no mention of all the hard work he is doing to aid known tax evaders to escape their liabilities or the devastating effect that Save Hearts In Trouble is having on normal family life as he encourages gullible fans to divert hard earned money from family essentials to propping up a bankrupt business.

Sure this will be the same in a few houses where

:rolleyes:

This is the crucial flaw in their plan. Football fans are already charged way to much for watching the game. FoH plan is that they think Hearts fans are good for another £240 a year. If that was the case, why not put up the price of a season ticket?
The big test would come next summer when season ticket renewal came round and some fans start to feel the pinch. What do you do? Buy a season ticket or keep donating to FoH and miss the games? The direct debit will be changed quick sharp to one that gets them a season ticket.

If I was a non-hearts supporting business man who thought I could buy into a club when they were down and sell after a quick turn around, I would have spent my money to get in on the huns deal, ala charlie green. If I was a hearts supporting business I would have become involved long before now. The only other option is to have a rich business guy from Edinburgh who wants to save the club for the community. How likely is it that there are two in Edinburgh, preferably who had an uncle hanging around dance halls at the end of the 19th century.

Loved this wee snippet in that thread:


Posted Today, 12:34
BDO can't afford to send the youth team to Oban, Charlie Irons is donating coach travel for the game in England. Perhaps it just another casualty of costs by also a couple of other teams also pulled out IIRC.
Edited by Charlie-Brown, Today, 12:35.


Whatever happened to that state of the art minibus they had for their youth team. I think someone has it as their avatar (Pedantic Hibby?). Have they sold it or is it still in the garage waiting to get picked up once the bill has been paid?

If they are desperate for transport to Oban Sergey and I will gladly get out the horse and cart and give them a lift. They'll have to sell some pegs though to help out with the costs.

I liked this one, he thinks Hearts have pulled out and forced the cancellation.

Doesn't sound good. Most likely cancelled due to us pulling out though if it is the case...

then he was told Leeds, Liverpool, Celta Viga also pulled out at various stages.

This was good also.

According to our records you have pledged but not yet ‘converted’ your pledge by giving us your bank details.

The process the Foundation has been using involved you pledging your support through the Foundation website. We now need you to turn that pledge into a firm Direct Debit commitment.

We need these direct debit mandates as they form an integral part of the Foundation of Hearts' bid for a controlling stake in the club.

Please click here to give us your details.

If you have not set-up your payment you have not yet converted your pledge.

Do not delay - the Foundation of Hearts must submit its bid to the administrators of Hearts by Friday.

With our thanks,

Ian Murray MP

The Foundation of Hearts




I signed up a couple of weeks back, gave my bank details etc and I've yet to receive any correspondence from them ?? Got something back from gocardless - but nothing else ??




I converted my pledge over 2 weeks ago but I still got the email saying that according to their records I haven't. I tweeted them but still no reply. I converted more than I had originally pledged if that some how makes a difference of what shows up on their database?




I just got around to converting today. Half an hour later I got the email saying "according to our records you've not yet converted"

Looks like the system admin is a bit slow. Hopefully all the Direct Debits come out ok.

I know a number of people who got the email above, but sadly they have fallen at the final hurdle and been unable to convert their pledge into a direct debit. Still I am sure the foundation of patsies will understand, its really just the same as their grubby wee club has been doing to their suppliers, the utility companies, Heriot Watt, the cops, the council, HMRC and uniquely the people of Lithuania.

Was wondering how Ba'heid Murray can sign himself as independent, plainly he is not. Hopefully no Labour party time or resources have been diverted here?

Collective narcissism, hmmm how does that work? A group of people who love themselves, kind of a contradiction of terms. If you love the group, you have to live it more than yourself, thus making you the opposite of a narcissist.

I prefer the Borderline Personality Disorder. It is surely a borderline decision as to whether a Yam can have a personality.

Whatever happened to that state of the art minibus they had for their youth team. I think someone has it as their avatar (Pedantic Hibby?). Have they sold it or is it still in the garage waiting to get picked up once the bill has been paid?

If they are desperate for transport to Oban Sergey and I will gladly get out the horse and cart and give them a lift. They'll have to sell some pegs though to help out with the costs.This is what they are using now. :agree:

I wonder if the players will have to buy their own strips this season? I hear they've also got a rota sorted out for who's washing the strips each week, although the players have requested that Locke be excused from any 'cleaning' duties. Seemingly his attempts at recreating Roman, ammonia based washing methods are not gong down too well with players and administrators alike.



history tells us the last time the soon-to-be liquidated hertz washed their strips they changed from blue into the ghastly dark pink colour they have been for the last 100+ years(although there's no official date for when the puddle drinkers were actually founded of course) :brokenyam:

[Glesgahibby]

They have a let's gauge the converted pledges on takeyerpickback.
After a bit of glesgahibby Maths I have calculated that they

Ubig shares frozen,pledgers cancelations at any time,transfer embargo,that stand and minus 15 points.

Added to that Mr Locke's alleged mutual interests with Boab's parents, seems a natural step for our friends over-by.

Hey Scott, I was in our old CW haunt last night & got talking to a Lithuanian barman! He comes from Kaunas but only knew of Romanov as the crook who destroyed a bank. When I asked him about the football & basketball teams in Kaunas he said the latter would survive because that's the national sport but nobody really cared about the footy team. Amazingly he had never heard of the world famous Yams, not even when I told him they had won WW1 on their own! Bemused doesn't cover it! He also confirmed what many on here have already said, that there's outrage in Lithuania over the banking & other events & no politician is going to spend a minute worrying about the affairs of a tin pot foreign team! Pleasing!

No doubt they will claim that it was events out-with their control (Lithuania) which forced them into administration. Won't stack up when you consider all their claims of self sufficiency for the last year and a half.

What would happen if there's no bids on friday.

One of two things IMHO:-

1. Move to liquidation (unlikely as immediate step)

2. Extend time for bids to be worked up IF BDO satisfied that enough serious interest and progress has been made. (Most likely scenario especially as FOH will plead for some extension if they haven't bid on Friday).

No-one has the cash to bid and cover the £6.8m secuirty on the stadium plus several million in running costs, so we'll see them living hand to mouth for a while yet (Portsmouth were in admin for 14 months I think I read on here?). So let's hope next May (or sooner) it reads Yams in 12th place, dwindling crowds, and no hope of escaping admin - let liquidation commence. By then the new pyramid structure of Scottish football will be well bedded in, making it even more difficult for a NewCo to join anywhere but the bottom rung (as AFC Wimbledon had to do). That's of course if they are capable of forming and running a football club.

Look.
Lets stop this nonsense.
The only bid is going to be the FOH.
Hardly fit for the top league of Scottish football.

Doubt anyone would complain if they were shoehorned in there.
They're going to get liquidated and lose their ground.
Disaster for Scottish football if they're allowed to start in the SPFL.
Take no chances.
Get them out now before the SPFL become the laughing stock of world football.

I would guess so, Im 99% sure the sfa will be looking at this and thinking, if you cant GUARENTEE to fulfil the fixture list we have no other option but to remove them from the league.

Which is the defense that any club in administration could offer because by definition going into administration means it is no longer being run by the same people. So if their argument was to work the SFA would never punish anyone for going into administration. And by the same logic RBS were the victims of the financial crisis because it was a different person in charge...

Mitigating factors; WTF!!! They have no shame.

Factor 1; we tried to defraud new shareholders by total of £1.8mm but the mugs ( customers ) only bought £1mm.
Factor 2; we were self sufficient apart from the fact we hadn't paid HWU, the police, the taxman, the council & the kebab shop round the corner.
Factor 3; we were ok telling our lies until unfortunately we completely ran out of money.

Personally I don't see how SPFL can cut them any slack whatsoever. As many on here have said there's a good chance that Yams as a football entity will be the smallest problem to be faced in wrapping up the whole UBIG/UKIO entity. There is potential corruption & money laundering on a large scale & SPFL need to be careful to distance themselves from any possible consideration that their inaction was a factor in any fraud.

This is the elephant in the room. No sane party, be it potential investors or footballing authorities, will want to be associated or to be seen colluding with Hearts until this is resolved. And I doubt it will be resolved quickly. This has the possibility of freezing the club in limbo for years.

I would assume, once they follow the money and determine it's sources (which was going through Hearts accounts) that there is also the possibility of the prosecution of Hearts directors who held office over this period.

I really feel that the troubles they are experiencing now are just the tip of a very large iceberg.

To be honest, I thought it was a bit much, but she assured me that was what he was on, and I don't think she would lie .... unless she's been told a lot of guff. :dunno:

Is it possible that this rather sharpish 12th July deadline for bids has been imposed because the football authorities have told them they have to have a credible plan in place to last the season or be demoted as Livingston were? The 12th July deadline was announced after BDO first met the SPL.

THe dates are strange especially as the possible sanctions are fine, transfer embargo or censure. Any bidder is putting in a bid without knowing the outcome of the hearing.

The extended embargo which is surely the most likely sanction(as per Dunfermline) will have an effect on any serious bidders( if there are any) hoping to get a CVA and then start buying players to improve the squad. Maybe bids will come in with this caveat to try and influence the inquiry.

I don't think there's anything in the dates to be honest. Any bids will be looked at by BDO over the weekend (so if anybody is expecting the resounding POP on Friday can forget it) and then the negotiations start. Dunfermline took almost 4 months for the Pars Utd to be named preferred bidder so it could be almost as long for BDO to do the same. THEN COMES THE DUE DILIGENCE!!!!

Long process but a Pleasing outcome (IMHO) :greengrin

The SPL have told the administrators they won't be giving them any assistance. "Hearts can be dealt with by the book, or have it thrown at them"

No doubt any bids made will have demands attached, was that McKie guy not only bidding, before he pulled out, if they could guarantee that he would be allowed to sign players?

I can't imagine anyone other than FOH will bid anyway.

Good luck to the bidders who's deadline is this Friday.


"Hearts accept SFA admin charge but will plead mitigating circumstances"

Is Danny Wilson a 'mitigating circumstance' ??? - I rather think that this will be when the 'Maroon-Elmers' pay the price for their immoral actions - nobody likes a cheat.

This guy Birch seems to be the mouthpiece for this. Bryan Jackson never came out with this bull**** when Dunfermline had their meeting about sanctions, indeed he praised the SFA for the fair hearing and the extended embargo instead of a fine.

Mitigating factors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What, like massively over spending on players for the last 10 or more years which put them in to huge debts?

Oh well, let's all feel sorry for them then.

Exactly. I'm absolutely sick to death of hearing them try to play the victims and make out none of this is their fault and everyone should feel sorry for them and pull them out the **** without them facing any consequences.

Em no. You financially doped for years and lapped up the (cheated) glory you gained from it. Quite happy going on, giving it the big un' about how massive a club you are etc etc. So don't come crying and playing the poor wee victimised souls now that reality has finally hit home!

To be fair to them, if the 'mitigating circumstances' they choose to cite is collective mental infirmity, then they have a pretty strong case.

We couldnt beat the team from Leith once last season and they put us out the scottish cup ..........

Are they paying anyone anything per week?

To be fair, they managed to square up Arbroath eventually. Mind you they missed the players wages that month too. :wink:

Look at their fund raising efforts, respond to Fish of Marillion's generosity with abuse and look at getting Foo Fighters or The Charlatans to play at Tynecastle instead. Exactly the same attitide as on the pitch where they've paid over 100% of wages to income for YEARS.

Get them relegated to division 3 at the very best.

I just had one of those automated calls, but decided not to just hang up for some reason.

Apparently if you have more than £10,000 worth of debt you can apply to have 70% written off. Yep, that's right; seven-zero percent.

Stewart Weir ‏@sweirz 3h (http://www.hibs.net/sweirz/status/354605206702530561) @GarryP1874 (http://www.hibs.net/GarryP1874) @clonejack (http://www.hibs.net/clonejack) relevance is Rangers - however you wish to see them - were in Div3. That IS a cause for some of Hearts financial woes


This guy is supposed to be a journalist - but he's clearly not got a clue about the reasons for Hearts financial problems. To suggest that their current predicament was caused in any way by Rangers being in Div 3 is surely hogwash?

£5m to buy club and ground but then needing a further £10m on running costs (st money should run out around Halloween) including hmrc fines and urgent stadium upgrade with a listed building delay and complication to wrestle with.

If they pulled out of rangers (which was more straightforward in many respects) they must be pretty likely to "get off at hay market" with this jambo bid too I'd have thought

BBC article (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23245412).

Hearts: American company Club 9 Sports submit bid

America-based company Club 9 Sports have submitted a bid to buy Hearts, BBC Scotland has learned.The bid, submitted to administrators BDO ahead of a 12 July deadline for offers, is in the region of £5m.

BBC Scotland has also learned that the company's plans include a move away from Tynecastle to a purpose-built stadium on the outskirts of Edinburgh.
Club 9 Sports have been involved in failed bids for clubs including Rangers and Sheffield Wednesday.
The Foundation of Hearts, a consortium of fans' groups, are the only group who have made their intentions to buy the club public so far.A consortium led by former Scottish Rugby chief executive Gordon McKie had proposed an alliance with the Foundation of Hearts (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23194475) , which was rejected.

Club 9 Sports have also set up a new company called HMFC limited with Borders-based business Bob Jamieson, who has been working alongside the company, as their sole director.The company are based in Chicago and have also instructed an Edinburgh legal firm to act on their behalf.
