Disgraceful management from the owner and the football director

The reality is finally starting to hit home. They are in our shadow 😂
And now Brokeback has two or three threads on our imminent demise - given today`s news about having to ask the players to take wage cuts
Talk about burying your heads in the sand and not seeing the problem that is looming large on the horizon for the maroon mutants.
And they are laughing because some season ticket holders wanted refunds. Newsflash (esp for you KiwiDug), at least of club had the good grace to offer refunds until your manky mob who simply said that they couldn`t afford to.
Not quite as big as Stendals perhaps, but JR also has a fine red beak any wino would be happy to sport.Quote:

No way. He is a confirmed Jambo and he actually has posted today to apologise that the information, which he received and passed on, was not how things turned out. He was warmly comforted by the muppets who, with the exception of a few ‘Hobo dissenters’, will probably continue to hang on to his every word. His legal eagle source will continue to feed him titbits of information as the courtroom drama approaches and unfolds. He and Kiwidug are good for a few laughs yet.:greengrinQuote:

The definition of Hibsing it... lol. Hearts set to pocket £8m compensation from a court case financed by one of our millionaire benefactors. Meanwhile Hibs freefall straight into financial meltdown - Never change Hibs, never change!!!
Even if they do end up getting millions in compensation, they seem to be forgetting all that it’ll do is help mitigate losses from playing in the lower league for a reduced season next year.Quote:

It would be taken from the prize pot so Premiership clubs would pay about 85% of any compensation, which will be nowhere near their expectations. However, if they did win £8m 😂, 1st and 2nd place would pay 23% between them (1st - just over £1m, 2nd - a little under £1m) so Lawwell will have switched from being their biggest ally for reconstruction to being their biggest enemy for the court case. Hard to tell if the same has happened with Rangers as some say they voted against reconstruction.Quote:

There's not going to be any ticket revenue lost of any great note, considering the Premiership clubs, despite the earlier start, won't have any ticket income until crowds are let in - by which point Hearts will likely be playing anyway.
Hospitality is the same, so any income they would be wanted compensated for would be lost anyway had they stayed up.
Prize money, well they won't get as much as if they'd stayed up, however that would have been the case if they'd been relegated after the 38 games, so that's not being disproportionately disadvantaged.
Their figures are pie in the sky.

I said that I was surprised it hadn’t happened before now and at some point after lockdown the players went to the board and offered to take cuts but board refused. I sent them the link but the still didn’t believe me.
There is also aware of going about these issues and we had done things professionally and respectfully whilst Budge went about make threats and using CO19 to try and reduce costs.
They are apparently set for 5 years and will now spend their way out of the championship and right back up.

They could only reasonably expect the difference between a truncated Premiership season and a truncated Championship season, neither of which will bring in vast sums this season.
There is also the question of what Premiership season they rely on? Presumably it would need to be the made up reconstructed version they wanted, with less TV and prize money split between 14 clubs?
All of that will come out in court - or more likely it wont even get there.
They're wanting compensated to a pre-Covid 19 Premiership level (and more) so it as if the virus never happened to them, even though everyone else is suffering. Greed, spending other people's money since Romanov and before. More recently from generous benefactors and fans (which is fine because they choose to give it) and now they want a huge handout via the courts. They don't know how to live within their means.Quote:

Latest from resident maroon thicko David McCaig
It doesn’t suggest that Ron Gordon is a man for putting his hand in his pocket and is clearly only at Easter Road to make cash.
The only way he can make cash is by selling Easter Road and their training barn. Of course he only he gets these assets if Hibs go into debt and have to borrow from him... which then brings his floating charges into play.
Just as well they went to straight to wage cuts and not deferrals... whoops!!
I really don't get the obsession some Hibs fans have with a lower league club.
Maybe, if they hadn't guaranteed their fans 18 matches on their season tickets.Quote:

Billy Brown claiming it was wrong for Scottish Clubs to think about themselves by not voting for something they didn't believe in. Apparently putting the Scottish game into disrepute.
But it's totally fine for Hearts to take Scottish Football into a legal court case for their own benefit, bringing the Scottish game into even further disrepute.
Why was he ever allowed into our club?
Kickback has officially lost the plot. They think we are in deep trouble. They don't realise that every club in the world is likely to have a 40 to 50% drop on revenue so we are making changes to suit.
We have asked our players to reduce wages professionally and with dignity and not forcing suspension like old Budgie. They also think getting benefactor money is normal even though without it they operated at a loss.
We are approaching 9000 season tickets (3rd highest in the country) so far. We are in better shape than most but need to dig deep to ensure we come out this stronger than most.
Is he not suspect no.1 for handing them the tactics and formation before the cup final? Bit rich him going on a rant about morality.Quote:

And apparently any financial problems are due to Hearts not being in the league, nothing to do with a global pandemic.Quote:

Every single club in Scottish Football (maybe barring Celtic) will have to make the relevant adjustments which may include cuts to get through these difficult times.
Aberdeen a £9 million gap so tells it all.
As for Hearts Fans. Let them think what they want.
The DR has always over dramatised things especially when it comes to Hibs. Funny how it’s just us. The DR is a rag and even if it is true the way it is being portrayed is a bit out of order imho.

If only we had managed to see out the season. This was only going one way for hearts. Down.
But this way the support are galvanised, backed into a corner and come out fighting.
Enormously fortunate in many ways. Can you imagine ST and FOh uptake if the slow and painful relegation had gone on another 8 games?!
I'd thought about this too. Would Tom English be hacking away at disgraceful articles like he has been if it were us who had been relegated and threatening leagal action? Not a chance he would have been.Quote:

I wonder if Naismith and Boyce will hang around until October to play at Alloa ? Maybe they have a release clause in their contracts if they are relegated like the manager.
Is it reasonable to anticipate Naismith getting a player/coach role. I wonder if he has his badges yet?Quote:

If hertz do go through with the court action, if they loose and if they have to pay costs is going in to administration an option for not paying up and clearing their debt?
Deans mentioned that the SPFL could be forced to ringfence up to £8m to cover their costs should Hearts win.Quote:

That’s a point. If they go to court and lose do the SPFL recoup the legal costs from Hearts?Quote:

1. They have no manager, Daniels departure will be announced soon

3. They still have a lot of ‘premiership’ players on Premiership wages, they may find trimming that squad to be harder than they think.
4. They have no money in the bank. Like all teams in Scotland hearts are skint, they are determined to go to court, QCs charge in 12minute blocks at around £100 per block. Lack of funds will prevent any wholesale changes to what is a terrible squad, the best of which (hickey) will probably be sold with a chunk going to celtc.
5. They’ve been run badly for a good few years now, why would this change? Given there won’t be changes at the top, you’d assume they’ll continue on the same trajectory.
The one thing they have going for them in the siege mentality, but I feel this is more in the supporters heads than in anyone’s at the actual club.
If they have a bad start to the season they’ll have a lot less games to sort it out, the championship is full of slip hazards and decent championship teams, away to the majority of teams in that league won’t be easy. Playing Alloa away on a Wednesday night with no fans to cheer you on Will be difficult to win.
While I don’t see a Sunderland type scenario I do think they’ll maybe be too confident of skooshing the league and that is always dangerous.
I maybe wrong, they may well go the season undefeated and come straight back up but I genuinely think there’s evidence to suggest otherwise.
There are similarities to when we were relagated. Club in turmoil, new manager, skeleton playing staff etc. The likes of Dundee are already geared up for it. Won't be easy. One thing is for sure they can't afford to be down there more than one season. Popcorn out.Quote:
