So what does this mean in terms of the frozen shares now?
Are they now unfrozen? Anyone know?
I think there is 30 days to appeal the appointment, so 30 days before the admin. is definitely known.

Thursday 31st Oct is when Hearts should find out future of parent company UBIG. Bankruptcy administrator has been appointed#bbcsportscot
Shares are still frozen, appointing an administrator doesn't change that as far as I know? My understanding is the administrator will be there to figure out what's happened at UBIG and how much it's all worth etc but that until such times as the lith authorities are satisfied nothing dodgy has been happening then nothing will be getting sold on or liquidated.
It's entirely possible, theoretically, that the Admin gets in and discovers UBIG have been up to all sort of illegal shenanigans and that Hearts played a vital part in all of this. Or it could be that nothing untoward happened at all and Hearts shares will be given to BDO in exchange for a bag of jelly babies and half a roll of sellotape. We all know which is the most likely outcome.
....and discovers UBIG have been up to all shorts of illegal shenanigans ! I think that's a certainty. :greengrin
Have a read at what UBIG were up to in Bosnia.

Money laundering on an industrial scale, Drug money, terrorists etc, bribing whole governments etc.
Actually, Bajillions, I don't know at all which is the likely outcome. It seems to me that ProudCheatsRUs are making a stonking job of distancing themselves from all the bad stuff whilst simultaneously claiming that all the good things happened irrespective of the financial doping. And the MSM are lapping it up.
How will they prove that 'Hearts' as opposed to individuals like Romanov played a vital role?
Well, I would suspect, that being accountants, they would look at the transfer of monies over the years between Hearts and the other companies in the UBIG group. Hearts didn't get the money to pay those players from thin air, it came from the other companies in the group (and in some cases went from Hearts to them). So where did the UBIG money that funded Hearts come from? How much did board members of the club know?
This long-running fiasco may well be about to take the very nasty turning that some were long anticipating.
Whatever happens, it won't be good for them.
I found this old footie mag from Sep 1986 and just wanted to share!..... :wink:

Hearts also convinced us lot in the media that they weren't going in to Admin and that the share issue was genuine. Whether it was 'Hearts' or just the bad man that run them, if the company was used at any part of any nefarious activity then the lithuanian authorities will keep the shares frozen until the investigation has been completed. The best way to think about why all the assets are frozen is it's like a crime scene, nobody touches anything and nothing leaves the room until the Police have gone over it with a fine tooth comb. The assets are all potential evidence and it's very unlikely the lith authorities will be rushed because some ****my wee robbing club in Scotland is in administration and would quite like to be sold to the fans.
Hearts fans think that Vladimir Romanov is like the lith equivalent of Fred Goodwin, he done some bad stuff but he'll never face justice.
In reality he's their equivalent of Bernie Madoff.
Just hearing that they have agreed a CVA.
Forthwith, their new designation will be: Charity Violating A-r-s-e-holes.
For any football fan they go hand in hand, but I'm wondering how the authorities would pin anything on "Them"
The SPFL/SFL, yes, they will have their wee rule book and I'm sure will use it when the time is right...
Newco will go ballistic if not :wink:
Still so much to be said and done......
