Oops sorry, that's next year!
Feel we've had our eye of the ball a little by pathetically obsessing about our own team. Sometimes I think that there are people on this board who care more about Hibs than the demise of Hearts. Well I'm moving the Gorgie boys right back up the table.

The one drawback of course being that the meetings still aren't in place and the rubber stamp is gathering dust :wink:
It's like de ja vu all over again. Or maybe that should be "Portsmouth" all over again :Romanov:
All the good assets from Ukio Bankas have been moved to another bank which looks like it will make profits from the deal.
"Sialiu Bankas AB, the only publicly traded bank in the Baltic states, rose to a 30-month high on speculation a purchase of bankrupt Ukio Bankas AB assets last year will help boost profit."
The duff properties (like HMFC and Rottingcastle) must have been kept at the "bad bank" where I doubt there is much motivation to do anything hasty.
Bad form from Hearts/BDO here. I'd have liked to have seen a meeting that was 'scheduled for February' set up and cancelled before the one that is 'scheduled for March.'Quote:

Stands like our main one aren't cheap, especially if you fall into the "junk" category and they can't owe it to themselves this time.
A 5-1 hand sign won't cut it when you're trying to convince legitimate businesses that they should lend you money.

A bit like owing the money to themselves ! :greengrin
But more importantly - are they the same height?Quote:

That main stand can't have much longer left in it if it was on its last legs in 2003. It's amazing that they've had a further decade out of it!Quote:

I was mates with the man (who was a jambo) that supplied the steel. As a fan he was unhappy about the quality requested. It was legal and safe but no great longevity. Interestingly he was shocked at his first visit to Hampden around the same time as they clearly used even worse quality....Quote:
