A lot of them seem to think the The Rangers route back into the League structure is an automatic path.
Rude awakening coming to them.

Can you really not see this happening?Quote:

This seems like an opportune time to quote the OP, even though there's been 45,305 replies.Quote:

When Rangers did it the deal was all set up in advance, they kept their old kit, sponsors, players etc.
Hearts do not have any of that.

Don't think a league 2 newco could afford to rent Murrayfield at about a £1m a season.Quote:

Of course it's possible that Bidco might manage to mirror what happened to Sevco, but I don't think anyone could guarantee it.

'Lickers' fever finally seems to have hit Kickback with a vengeance. Very much enjoying the opening salvos in the JCW. (Jambo Civil War). It's the bemused 'dis this mean Hertz'll no be able tae sign new playurz in the champiumshup..." masses I feel sorry for. They will be the ones sacrificed on the Gorgie killing fields.
That sounds very entertaining. I must take a look.Quote:

I actually think the most likely scenario is renting Murrayfield. I honestly don't think the SRU would play hard ball with them regarding rent levels and they already have everything in place for football matches. it would be much cheaper than maintaining their own stadium and they would obviously have the potential for much higher attendances, because of both the size and location of the stadium
This is a direct quote from an email they (Law firm, Tark Grunte Sutkiene, advising Ūkio Bankas) sent me when I enquired as a potential "new bidder"
"Please be informed that the current offer is on-going the approval procedure by Ūkio
Bankas creditors and it is expected it will be approved within the upcoming
days"
I have until tomorrow at 10 am Central European Tiime to submit my offer. So looks like as we suspect BDO right out of the picture and creditors still mulling over alterantives but BIDCO looks like being accepted.
