If that Murray had been my local MP, I would be at his office first thing asking him why they can make a statement like this, considering all the common folk that have have had their money stolen from heart Of Midlothian Football Club over the last 10 years! I'm sure all the Aluminium workers in Bosnia will sleep easy now knowing that their pension fund has went to good use :brickwall

Cash is always the motive. :agree:

CWG, can you explain exactly what someone offering for the shares will get? I know, "the shares", but what exactly does a purchaser stand to gain from buying these shares?

Ta.

Can I just clarify. Does today mean that FOH have the PBS for £2.5m? BUT Ubig can still sell the shares to someone else? And the talk of property developers in with last minute offers was rubbish?:confused:

They have control of the company, which effectively means the assets.

No.

If the CVA is completed, FOH will own the shares in the company.

It is the company that will own the PBS.

The Hearts saga is merely a single snowflake on the tip of the iceberg when it comes to unravelling the UKIO mess.

By emotion what he mean is he was delighted to be able to try and wash his hands of an insignificant Scottish football team that is more bother than it is worth for relatively little effort.

Politicians - eh never far away from controversy. Happy that his club never played rent or rates or whatever it is for months on end.

Wonder if he would back up one of his constitutes with such vigour if they were skint and didn't pay up??

This!

Spolier alert, there's a big rant coming, so look away of you don't want to get bored :greengrin

I cannot for the life of understand why the UKIO and UBIG Admins would give a flying fig for the survival of a piddling Scottish Football Club, given the large scale criminal shafting of the Lithuanian public. And yet, the survival of the Football Club seems to have won their hearts (no pun intended) and minds, rather than reclaiming the maximum sum of money for their creditors by a land sale.

Let's not forget that Hearts were no innocent victims here. Hearts were Vlad and Vlad was Hearts and millions of pounds flowed in, out, through and around Hearts in a decidely dodgy way. I just don't get it, I really don't. Are cheating Football Clubs always going to be able to dodge the true consequences of their actions? Why are they a special case in Company law and Society at large? And what possible reason can any other club have for living within the rules when the see vermin like Hearts and Sevco getting away with legalised fraud in racking up huge debts and then just dumping them and carrying on as if nothing had happened? There are real world consequences to their debt dumping, real businesses are harmed and real people lose their jobs.

Why would the Lithuanians be so accomodating here? They should be nailing Hearts to the wall and maximising the return to the Lithuanian public by liquidating them. Not getting all soppy and letting them live to cheat another day.

I had high hopes that because the Lithuanian Government and non UK administrators were involved that this one would have been done properly, but alas it seems that, no matter the country, Administration is a joke. And BDO are no different or any better than Duff & Phelps in the Sevco case. They want large football admin fees, so rather than protecting creditors, they will always seek to help clubs squirm out of their social responsibilites.

I'm a bit peeved. Can you tell? :greengrin

So UBIG (50%) or whoever can buy their shares, the woman with shares in Switzerland (15%?), and FOH will all own the company which will own the PBS after/if the CVA is agreed?

FOH will own all the shares. That's what their offer is based on.

Taking out of the equation that the shares are frozen at present, I wonder how they propose to get their mitts on the missing 21% :confused:

Fair point.

From memory, once 75% has been obtained, the holder can make an offer for the remaining 25%. (or maybe that's 90%?)

No matter... it would be interesting to see which shareholders voted today to approve the sale. ie whether the 21% were represented at all.

They're frozen. End of. FACT :greengrin

Which are?

and follow-up q: I though UBIG was being liquidated or is in admin but anyway under legal measures and so (sorry for being obtuse) I am not clear why it would be worth buying the shares. Why would they not be seized to meet any claims?

Good. Some reassurance required.
Is it likely they will be unfrozen in time for FoH to take control?

The assets are Tiny, the players' registrations, the brand (toxic as it is), the SFA & SPFL memberships. If they don't buy the shares they don't own Hearts! UBIG's and Ukio's liquidators both have the power to sell their assets to recover money for their creditors. They both have shareholdings in Hearts and (subject to freezing issues which I'm not convinced are in force any longer since UBIG's offishul move to liquidation) both have the power to sell them.

The main assets of HMFC are its stadium, its playing squad, and its brand.

As for the UBIG situation. It is in admin, and one of its assets is its shareholding in HMFC. The administrator has a duty to realise that asset for as much as is possible, in order to maximise the return to its own shareholders. Hence why I think that they didn't reject the CVA, as the CVA route gives them a chance of some cash for those shares.

That makes things a bit clearer for me. Seems like a coherent strategy. I suppose the risk for them is if they ask for too much the whole thing collapses and they get nothing.

I'm no longer buying this 'administrator has a duty to do his best by the creditors' as it does not happen in real life.

They would get nothing in a liquidation anyway.
