the same as or lower terms than who though??

Let them sign who they want now. They are gone, they need to win 7 more games than the team above them. Not going to happen. The quicker they get out of admin, the quicker they start racking up the debt, and the fun starts all over again. They never learn- they are already talking about how they are going to scoosh the championship with all their new players-which will be bought with cash they don't have. Next year is going to be even better watching them - kids in a sweetie shop.
Why does Doncaster keep casting up the Danny Wilson signing and relating it to the current situation? They were not in Administration when Wilson came in this time last year. Surely that makes it a completely different situation?!
A transfer embargo should mean just that. It shouldn't be one in one out. That's absolute nonsense. We're having to do one in one out, as most teams living within their means have to at this time of year. They shouldn't be given the same conditions as other teams whilst in Administration.
To be honest I'm past caring about the right and wrongs of the footballing side of the rules. They are gone so it makes no difference. What bugs me is how little it is mentioned that people lost their jobs in all this and businesses haven't been paid. Yet they think it's ok to spend money on players - if only the football rules would allow it. Imagine your a small business having to write off say £2k, then you hear they are looking to sign a player and pay him this a week!!

The quote from Doncaster suggests that they have already registered 10 players last summer using the one out one in rule. (If I am reading this correctly). With this in mind surely they can only apply to replace players who leave going forward.
There is no mention in the rules that the player coming in must be on less than the player going out. I doubt the administrator would sanction a considerable increase in wages with the risk if them running out if money.
Wilson was only supposed to be on loan until the end of last season but he signed for hearts after they went into administration. The reason they allowed it was because he was still on hearts books so there was no need for him to register with hearts.
I think Doncaster is trying to draw comparisons because although hearts weren't in admin this time last year they had an embargo in place which meant they could only sign under 21's on a 1 out 1 in basis. There's still no comparison with that situation and the current one though. Hearts are looking to register players such as Skacel and Driver when they're in admin, which is why this will NOT happen. The desperation is laughable, all they're doing is making bigger fools of themselves and setting their idiot fans up for more disappointment.
Fair point re cup semi. But I'm not being too serious about them signing players. Just trying to get across that they are so far behind that it makes no difference. But agree the rules are the rules and they shouldn't be allowed - and I'm confident they won't be.
You have to admit though that it in their complete delusion it is giving them a cause(albeit unjustified) that they can say they are being unfairly treated and if they could sign players they would have survived
Can picture BDOs pitch to SPFL- "As things stand we don't have enough money to see out the season. We desperately need to sell a couple of players to raise cash so if we can sell Wilson and Adam King can we replace them with Driver and Big Nose. The added benefit of this is that the muppet supporters will turn up in their thousands helping us through to the end of the season."
Unfortunately I can see SPFL falling for it. The only good news is they are both boggin.
"There is huge sympathy for the position that Hearts players, supporters and indeed administrators find themselves in". WTF. The players are getting paid to play football(stop laughing at the back). Most of us dreamed of that opportunity. It could be worse FFS!! The fans?? **** off. They've had 6 tough months to watch-which incidentally has still included two wins against Aberdeen, two derby wins, two cup wins on pens and a forthcoming semi final. They've had 30 years of watching players on the park that they couldn't afford. 10 years of Romanov, winning cups, derby wins, Europe etc and we should have sympathy as a result of 6 poor months!! **** off!! Administrators?? Have I read that right? Sympathy for guys getting paid £500 per hour for doing their job. Incredible
I also see in that report that Jackson has blamed Walkers injury on playing too many games. A broken foot due to playing too many games. Not because of a tackle or landing awkwardly. Because of playing too many games. I've said this once or twice before but seriously, **** off!!!
The fuds can say what they like, naebody except them will give a ****. If they hadnae broken the rules and cheated for years they would have survived, that's the real facts, their delusions mean **** all. They did and now they're getting their comeuppance. Tae quote any number of roasters on keechboak, "pleasing".
I wish I'd kept a list of all the lying, cheating and stealing hearts have done since romanov took over. An endless amount of shameless, deceitful, scaremongering propaganda
I feel sorry for the bairns getting dragged along to games and being forced to support that horrible club
He was part of the infamous '5 way agreement' on Sevco's negotiations to re-enter league which included the deferred transfer embargo.
You better ****ing believe this Hearts **** is making me mad:grr::grr::grr: they just won't take their punishment aaaaaaarrrrggghhhhhh:devil:
Bajillions do clubs register their entire squad and squad numbers with the SPFL at the start of the season?
If so any one in one out would surely only involve this squad and not last seasons squad which entered administration in June in the close season wouldn't it?
If they are allowed to replace the likes of Sutton who was made redundant and Zaliukas and Driver who were released from their contracts early, technically (though obviously unlikely in this case) they could be allowed to sign players on the ridiculous salaries that got Hearts into administration in the first place. It's a nonsense.
The SPFL should not have such fudges in their rules. An embargo should be an embargo and that's it.
I think the close season is a grey area to the SPFL as it is neither deemed as this season or last season. Since Hearts have already made the request without anyone leaving yet I'm guessing those who have already left can be counted against the "one out".
I don't think BDO are stupid enough to sign someone on a wage that would cause the money to run out faster than it already is. Bryan Jackson will know that one player is not going to generate enough income to justify his wage and something like £7k a week is a big chunk of their wage budget.
We are probably looking at Skacel signing a deal that he see's him play for very little money, if any at all. I've been told he wants to retire playing for Hearts and that the Alloa deal was just a handy way of keeping him occupied until such times as Hearts could sign him. As (their) luck would have it they may be able to do it now. I haven't been able to confirm who the player is though, I'm basing my theory purely on the fact he was at the Hearts game on Saturday when Alloa were also playing.
