I wondered this as well when listening to BJ last night, it seemed to come over as it was his own club, the way he spoke about Locke like he had any say over Locke being sacked for not doing his job well at h*****, i know FA bout all this but my impression is Jackson is a yambam :greengrin he is now basically accepting defeat in saving the yams with these DESPERATE pleas to the SFA/SPFL to let them sign players, if the party is over then time to put them out there misery and turn of the lights and padlock the gates before leaving for the last time.

They only need 7 :greengrin

They don't need 11 available players, they only need 7.

What a vile embarrassment of an institution they are.

They are always wanting to change the rules to suit their own ends.
In 1964-65 season they lost the league to Kilmarnock on goal AVERAGE, if it had been goal DIFFERENCE they would have won it, so they got the rules changed.
In 86 they lost the league to Celtc on goal DIFFERENCE, apparently if it had been goal AVERAGE, they would have won it.
Surprised they didn't want it changed back again :greengrin

Some Yambassadors seem to think there is merit in pursuing this issue, but then they are a bit thick!

It's beginning to look like BDO's last few throws of the dice I'd say!

Instead, he's begging the SFA to allow Hearts to spend more money. Surely that's in breach of what his role as an Administrator covers?

Indeed it is but BJ May take the view if he can overturn the registration issue more walk ups will appear and therefore increase cash flow etc..

If they can't fulfil fixtures they'll be expelled from the League. Hope it happens, we'll be 3 points better off! :greengrin

The DR report seems to suggest that the Yams know they're doomed to Relegation and this is all about protecting young players.

How would you feel if the SFA said .. ok, you can sign players as long as you agree to accept automatic relegation at the end of the season, irrespective of your points total ?

It's as simple as that mate.

Not sure of the Health and Safety rules but I think its up to the employer to make sure staff are safe.
Hearts are the employer not the SPFL. No one is forcing hearts to play injured players.
Is it not the case that the SPFL ask teams to field a sqaud of 11 players and if the club cannot do this then they forfeit that particular match or make arrangements for that game to be played at another date?

Or are the SPFL forcing hearts to play each game?

No. Leave them as they are an let them rot.

They showed no sympathy whatsoever towards other clubs during the Romanov cheating years. But they have no problem recieving any sympathy they can get.

I say, give them nothing.

I think you're being a tad charitable here Crops. I believe you're correct re the going concern bit but I believe the main driver is the LC semi & the income which a cup final appearance would bring.

We'd be 3 points worse off. All the league games against Hearts this season would be void and the points deducted from each teams total

For the upteenth time the rules state that "7 players" must be available for a match to take place. Not 11.

Yes but every other team bar Dons would lose more. Comparatively we would be better off against every other team.

I think so too but you know what for nearly my whole life (36) I've watched these smelly tramps get away with anything & everything.... The only real bit of piss poor luck I can ever remember them having was losing the title on the last day at Dens Park.....

They have this knack of wriggling out of everything..... I'm not a vengeful person by nature but I've waited a very long time to see them get whats coming to them......

If they manage to pressurise the authorities into doing something then I just think they will wriggle away again.....

They are like the proverbial bad smell.....

Just a thought but could Hearts be making a loss at home games. There were lots of season tickets bought that arent getting used so most people will have a mate with a spare ticket. I cant imagine they will be getting any walk ups and stewarding and policing will still need to be paid.Maybe they need to get some more cash through the gate by signing their fallen heroes so they can break even.

That too, of course.

I also believe that BJ is getting unfair stick (but then I would, wouldn't i? :greengrin). Yes, he's trying to have the rules ignored, but in the light of his remit, that's what he would be expected to do.

It's a fair point, it's the employer who has a duty of care to the employee.
If we run with the idea there is a health and safety issue, it's Hearts as the employer who would be held responsible, not the SPFL.

Can anyone remember the times and reasons The Rangers or their previous incarnation went cap in hand for help to the SFA/SPL?

They weren't given any.

If the Yams are given help, the conspiracy theorists in Govan will have a field day.

No-one who runs the Scottish game wants to be accused of anti-Rangers bias.

For that reason alone, I expect the embargo to remain, although there are many other compelling ones.
