Based on the DAFC timeline, even if the CVA is unconditionally approved by all creditors at the beginning of January, they will be lucky to be out of admin by June.Quote:

If as you say they start to sell STs for next season in March there is no way they will be able to get through next season as they would hope and get promotion back to top division. Not much chance of those £300k bids for May and McKay being put through I suspect:crazy:Quote:

I don't think it was ever definitely confirmed that UBIG still held the shares. Their admin. had barely got his feet under the desk before the CVA vote and I think there is a hell of a lot more stuff of importance to sort than a few million Yam shares.Quote:

Fedatovas did state after Vlad and the other directors all resigned from UBIG that Vlad still controlled HOMFC.
So who Knows ? The niece was already holding 15% of the equity in Quantum Holdings or something but I would have thought the actual holders of the shares would have made themselves known as the shares will be worthless come liquidation.
Listen the talk is over they are ****ed when we beatQuote:

Wishfully thinking but agree if we beat them and they go out cup crowds will dwindle as sweet F A to play for so only hard core will try and do a Rangers and stay defiant till the end The other Scenario is administrators string them along again and end of January say they are close to deal for fans to take over but need one last big push then they do same again about keeping money coming in so they can bounce straight back up with all those players waiting in the wings to play for the cause when they do go down some of them will just use hearts as a gravy train and that will lead to more problems when they don't come back upQuote:

Barry Anderson on Twitter:
Barry Anderson @BarryAnderson_8 21m This is frightening. Bolton Wanderers' debt is now £163.8m. http://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/sport/wanderers/wanderersnews/10905726.Bolton_Wanderers__debt_reaches_record_lev els/ … #BWFC
I wonder how this compares to Hearts level of debt as a ratio to their turnover. I'm pretty sure if you added back the "forgiveness" - which is basically Vlad writing off the debt -the Bolton numbers would compare to Hearts.
Edit to add - from the story linked in the tweet, at least Bolton maintained their wages at a level within their turnover.
Ask him ?Quote:

Indeed, but hearts are a big team who owed it to themselves.Quote:

The real difference is that BWFC is owned by someone who actually gives a sh*t about the club.Quote:

Interesting that allisbarry never showed any interest in the true level of homfc debt, even tho the EEN has him 'aligned' with them.Quote:

That money will also mostly have gone by now. I think their LC semi may be a watershed, win it & they'll lurch on through to the final for the revenue, lose it & the lights could be going out all over Gorgie!Quote:

Certainly a little different to the Yams throwing non-existent money down a black hole.Quote:

Are you suggesting the PBS isn't a decent stadium?Quote:

Hate the thought of Hearts zombie'ing on due to winning this upcoming semi against ICT. Wouldn't surprise me if they won it on penalties. The cup run would then read; beat Raith on penalties, beat QoS on penalties, one of their luckiest ever wins against us then another penalties win.

Some fellow called Davie Hogg asking FoH " how many direct debits have been lost since the peek "
FoH respond by wishing everyone a happy new year, hiding the question without answering it.
Major cover-up going on, me thinks.
Post deleted
Maybe not best idea to share in public (just yet)
All has gone very very quite down FoH way. They will only shout the amount of DD's when they are on the up and when it suits.Quote:

I couldn't see the question but saw a response which indicated Davie Hogg was stopping his DD. As Davie Hogg was a Hibs player & fan I think this could be a nice old wind up. Suspect a fair few have pulled out but if they say so they only encourage the rush to oblivion!Quote:

I would surmise that if they announced that the DDs had reduced by say 20%', it would start a dramatic slide.
' Am no payin if he's no payin'.
:agree: Diddies who didnae. We will be hearing a lot more about this group in months to come.Quote:
