I doubt they'll be out of admin before the close season.

I was wondering. I haven't read all the ins and outs of Hearts debt. Why exactly do we call them charity thieves.
Is it because they agreed to give money to a charity, but didn't. Or is it because they collected on behalf of a charity and kept the money for themselves.
For me, you can excuse a company going bust and not meeting a sponsorship commitment, or such like. You can't excuse people that act as a collector for a charity and don't pass the money on.
No matter how dire things are, you are basically saying your cause is more important than the charity.
Can somebody please clarify the situation?
That says it did ?
We know that the shares are currently frozen. Hearts' fans don't seem to think this will be a problem, some of ours do.
Can anyone give me a clear statement on what is required to unfreeze the shares? I haven't read anything to say for certain whether it's something that can be decided by a vote of UBIG's creditors, or whether permission from Lithuania's courts or police is required. The answer's critical to Hearts' future.
Nobody is asking for the portsmouth shares to be unfrozen as they were able to start again as a newco, could that not be the difference between the 2 situations?
if hearts shares remain frozen while the investigation into their complicit involvement in vlads criminal empire is complete does that mean they will have to be liquidated or are they allowed to continue trading indefinately whilst in administration?
surely they would lose a small fortune in fees to BDO if the administration were to continue into next season?
surely they will recieve the shares in a few weeks as ian murray and the evening news have stated? why else would they stick their necks out on this as they will lose all credibility if the deal isn't rubber stamped?
From my limited knowledge this seems to be the major difference between the hearts and Portsmouth situations. Portsmouth didn't fully need their shares to be defrosted whereas hearts do. Got to assume that much more effort will be made to defrost the hearts shares. Although I'm not sure how much of a challenge that will be.
