To suggest otherwise merely highlights the roasters ignorance of the situation his club has engineered.
I think the players will have to chase Agent Vlad for the money and the process by which they will have to beg will go something like this:-Quote:

“You insolent swine, which one are you? Igor, get that man’s name and have him shipped out with the next container full of money. Once the boys have finished his re education we can use his type in my new tiger fighting arena alongside that Thomson one who came the last time, they will never leave............”
Masked player (now wearing slightly stained jogging bottoms taken from club shop last year in lieu of pay)
“But sir we have a contract, you are bound by the law of Scotland to pay us”
Romanov – he is now biting chunks out of a punch bag.
“Scotland, Schmotland ............don’t talk to me about laws, its all a conspiracy that you are now part of, there will be no money, back to work, the beasts are in the field and there are crops to harvest before the winter my son”
Masked player “ But sir, the players are revolting”
Romanov - now furiously spinning an egg whisker at a picture of the SFA executive committee
“I know they are, but I like them and they love me.
This is precisely what is wrong with Scottish football, picking on my players stirring up unrest over the vulgar subject of money, they would have been quite happy to play for the glory”..........
I can feel a song coming on”
Vlad is now part way through a hearty rendition of Somewhere Over the Rainbow and is dressed as Judy Garland
Masked player “But sir, about the money”
Romanov “yes, fine, don’t worry about it Tin Man, I am a generous man I will pretend you never owed me it just this one time, you can tell the rest now run along.....................
Romanov - now singing whilst sitting on Jumbo, his favourite rocking horse and being clapped by his pet monkey Fester
“There's a land that I've heard of once in a lullaby Somewhere over.............
Whataboutery at its finest.Quote:

:agree: I dont know why the rest of us aren't not paying our players, don't have the taxman chasing them, play football in a ruin of a stadium and worst of all missing out on the chance to beg around the city with buckets, bake cakes and sell off the silverware and everything else for cash only to eke out our hand to mouth existence that all big clubs do.Quote:

If my club were facing what they are I would be putting my effort into challenging those accountable rather than writing with my irrelevant views of where all the others have gone wrong where hearts obviously haven't. I guess time will tell whether its all a big mistake and they ahve been doing it properly all along :crazy: enjoy.
Roaster :agree:Quote:

Oh, & now they're only accepting payment in used 5'ers & the initial charge to help has stopped. They'll be doing very well if they get to 50%, so maybe all Yams are not that gullible!!
Forgive my stupidity but keekaboo does sound like a jambo intruder.Quote:

Looking at the teams I really fancy us to win but it would just be typical of Hibs v Hearts recently.
They could, they even might, but ask yourself this, will that one result be enough to console them in the long years ahead when they've nothing to do at 3pm on a Saturday? Or any of the results they have bought against us with all those players they couldn't afford? One day, it will sink in, and then there'll be tears and regrets aplenty...Quote:

Hearts are an embarrassment to edinburgh and Scotland. They attempt to wind us up with their ***** patter about how much better they are than us, but completely fail to see that the only reason they have been better than us is because of overspending which is why they are in such deep trouble now. I hope they die and I hope it's painful and slow.
He HAS a point! .... :wink:Quote:

Shouldn't Hibs fans be considering picking them up at that bargain basement level?:wink:Quote:

Could this potentially be a good thing for hearts though? If UBIG are struggling so badly will vlad not want to sell hearts for less just to try and get some money fast?
Possibly, but they will sell to the highest bidder and that's unlikely to be a fans' consortium.Quote:

Even if the Club stiffs HMRC and gets liquidated he will retain the Club Name, Badge Etc and lease it back to high powered Yam business people like Donald Ford and the Insurance salesman :confused:.
He will feed off them for years. :thumbsup:
It will be a lot less than that. Most of the alleged £500K raised will have been through ticket sales.Quote:
