Share Transfers Agreed/Cooling off period

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a vandal on a whim
Never knowing who to cling to
When the debt set in
And I would have liked to have known you
And thanked you from the Hibs
But Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did

Would be good to drag out those absolute gem of posts from our pal Sean Lawson.

That hearts team should not have been on that pitch.We keep being told to "never forget". Well I don't think anyone ever will as the two incidents, that game and the administration, will forever be linked. Far from being a great moment for one club, it will go down in history as part of a national disgrace.Hearts fans shouldn't be gloating any more, they should be apologising to us.

They really are a bunch of absolute dicks.

Which would also stink. Remember when Meadowbank Thistle came so close to promotion to the old Premier Division, and were advised they would not be allowed to use Meadowbank, even being forced to play cup ties vs Hibs and Hearts at Starks Park and Brockville. If it wasn't suitable to host yam muppets in the premier, why is it ok in the EOS seniors or Div 3?

They've been giving it the "administration is the best thing for us" nonsense for ages but now that its actually happening they're bricking it!

Needless to say I've come into work today sporting an old Frank Graham Group top to ruffle a few feathers, pleasing.

It is laughable reading the posts on Adminback with regards what players should go, and who they should keep?
It still doesn't sink in over there at all...
IF.. I was on the books of the yam team, I would be constantly on at my agent to get me outa there pronto.

Risible article from Bathgate in the Scotsman.

Is there a precident of a club going into administration in pre-season? All the previous cases i can think of has been a case of trying to get clubs through to the end of the season.

Bathgate forgets all the debt for equity scams from Romanov. To suggest they are in the same place is laughable and I'm sure the Lithuanian taxpayers would agree.

Cheating ****.

He also completely fails to see the difference between:

My response to most of his rant would be "wibble, wibble".

He could have/should have spoken out sooner but like most of the other chumps, they were too busy lording it up with their 5-1 pish, not realising that they had defrauded just about every other entity associated with Scottish football.

There will be the unpaid portion of the £1.5M due to HMRC, plus the unpaid PAYE from last week, plus the VAT on the season ticket sales to add. Plus of course any season ticket holders for next year are creditors, too, so that has to be added. Plus the unpaid police bill £17k, plus God knows what the other unpaid bills are (e.g. Council Tax, Heriot-Watt for the training centre) plus the unpaid wages from last week, etc, etc, etc.

---

Its certainly not what I pledged for, thats it they'r not getting a penny from me :flag:

Just incase anyone believes that administration is a good thing and Hearts will be back debt-free and stronger than ever after next season, History is not on thier side:


Rangers - liquidated, essentially ceased to exist and had to start a new club and that was with a vast majority of scottish media and the footballing authorities on thier side trying to get them off the hook. Currently looking forward to playing in the second division.

Motherwell - Admin in 2002, only saved from relegation by stupid SPL rules on stadia with no points deduction given and a vast chunk of debt written off by Boyle. Its taken them 10 years to get back to a strong(ish) position of high league finishes and european football within a maintainable budget.

Dundee - Admin in 2003 & 2010, forced to sell thier stadium and ended up relegated to first division and stayed ever since except for last season when they got a season in the SPL thanks to Rangers going pop. 10 years out of the SPL.

Livingston - Admin in 2004 - survived in SPL that season by the skin of thier teeth but ended the following season bottom with the worst record for an SPL season at that time and relegated to first division Admin in 2009 saw the club extremely close to being liquidated and disappearing completely, ultimately rescued but relegated to bottom tier of scottish football, have not been back in the SPL since.

Gretna - Admin in 2008 - relegated from the SPL at the end of the season, relegated to thid division by SFL in close season, buyer for the club could not be found so club ceased to exist and stadium sold.

Dunfermline - Admin in March 2013 - Relegated from first division and currently struggling to get a buyer in place to take them over.


Enjoy the ride bawbags

Yep I think any administrators will quickly find out that things are a lot worse than the £25m owed to UBIG/UKIO

This is how real fans save their club. Not a couple of bake sales and face paintings.

A group from New York interested in Hearts have pulled out because of the decision by the club to enter administration.#bbcsportscot


BBCBMcLauchlin @BBCBMcLauchlin
The group also says the uncertainty over shares held by UBIG was a factor in their decision to walk away from Hearts#bbcsportscot


BBCBMcLauchlin @BBCBMcLauchlin
There are still two groups from the USA interested in taking over Hearts. Both to be in contact with KPMG in next few days.#bbcsportscot




He's as bad as Barry Anderson. He said the other day there was 4 american consortiums, one has dropped out so that leaves 2? Surely nobody can be surprised at either the UBIG situation or the fact they went into administration?

Me thinks Brian the yam is clutching at straws as usual. He's the one that told us Supporters Direct were in the latter stages of a takeover back in March.

Yep. Still in South Africa with the Scottish Rugby Union team but getting info!, reeks of #allisbarry and KPMG might not be the people to deal with but hey ho eh Brian.

In Rolland we trust

Well here we are, I wouldn't call it the darkest day, we will come out of this debt free and will be able to put all funds towards the playing side as opposed to servicing debt. Every cloud has a silver lining, unless your a hobo. I think we will be ok even starting on -15, remember the hobos are minus the thumb so I can safetly predict they will be the team to make up the points on. I think our young squad can do it.

Fingers crossed we come out of Admin before Aug and can then sign a few journey men looking for one last pay day to supplement the youth, hope the fixture list is kind to us and we get the hobos early doors at tynie, a derby win will lift everyone, plus put the wee team back in its place.

So frothers, enjoy your day froth away.

As an aside, I was at their last home game at the end of the season, and was at the PBS. Surely the only man on the planet to see the last fixtures of two clubs dying as a result of financial shennaniyams

In reality, for the most part fans have little or no control over the running of the club they support and go through ecstacy or agony depending on how well or badly their club is run.

For example the followers of the club formerly known as Rangers for the most part had no idea of the crooked goings on being perpetrated by the owners of their club. The opposite of that would be the Yams, who could surely see that that their club was a runaway train heading for the buffers driven by crooks and charlatans, but barely raised a peep of alarm, never mind protest.

Having said all that:

Its how the followers of clubs who have found themselves in the position of these two odious institutions conduct themselves post meltdown which determines the level of sympathy they deserve from the wider football community.

Rangers and now Heart of Midlothian football club were and have been exposed as nothing less than cheats off, and therefore by association on, the park. Buying and / or paying players who are way outside their natural ability to have on their books is not a lot different from taking a bunch of bog standard SPL players and filling them full of steriods and speed to get more out of them.

But: The reaction of the majority of followers of Rangers and now Hearts has been, in the first case, to blame everybody else for the downfall of their club and to steadfastly refuse to acknowledge the fact that their club got what it deserved and in the second case to continue to revel in a tainted cup final victory, which was the culmination of over a decade of mismanagement and financial cheating. Even going so far in some cases as saying the very real possibility of the death of their club was "worth it"

Theres the problem:

No class ....... no humility ..... No idea ..... = No sympathy !!!

Their club is teetering on extinction, having to sell off all their biggest players, playing with a team of young laddies, starting the season on -15 points, can't buy any more players etc etc.


Oh aye really jealous so i am!

The hearts fans are truly the most deluded, guiable morons i've ever had the misfortune to come across.

This from a moron on the Scotsman site:

Really feel for the people who are about to lose their jobs.

However, despite what some cretins may say, I'm comfortable knowing that Hearts fans have done nothing wrong, we've supported our team and why a fan of another club would take offence at that is beyond me.

Fellow jambos, these are dark times but it is not the end of Hearts. WE are Hearts.

I'm a full time union official. I deal with people losing their jobs. It's not easy but it has to be done. It never gets easier. Non playing staff are about to lose their livelihoods with at best derisory statutory redundancy payments if indeed they are even technically redundant. And still it's 5-1, 1902, we will survive, we are the victims, done nothing wrong, etc. Hearts fans played along for eight years in a money laudering charade on the grounds that they were too important and big to fail and still feel that they deserved the minor success they achieved.

Unusually for me I am at a loss for words. So maybe the words of Joseph Welch at the McCarthy hearings is worth quoting here for any Hearts fans lurking and looking on this thread: Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?

The fans are hugely to blame, if they hadn't been the most idiotic, gullible morons in Scottish football then they would, like everyone else, seen what's coming and tried to influence change to keep their club from dieing. Supporting your club doesn't consist of going up to your rivals with wee hand signals and shouting 1902.

Even now, if a desperate Bosnian aluminium smelter who`s had his entire world destroyed and his family ruined because of Vlads greed were to try and shoot him down, that utter roaster would likely throw his body in front of the gunman while shouting " 1-5, 1902, big team....i regret nothiiiinnngg ".

Morons like this are the reason that club deserves its fate.

The bitter, sanctimonious, sheer hatred and bile ozzing out of that pustule of a forum is quite staggering to behold.

Hibs.net is ozzing!

:hilarious

It's not 'staggering', it's just the culmination of everything we warned you Yams about for 10 years. In 2003, Hibs and Hearts both had large, unsustainable debts and needed to sort themselves out. One club did, the other thought they could defy gravity.

Yep, I remember a very similar story when Man C, Malcolm Allison, signed Michael Robinson over 30 years ago!

Fellow jambos, these are dark times but it is not the end of Hearts. WE are Hearts.

I'm a full time union official. I deal with people losing their jobs. It's not easy but it has to be done. It never gets easier. Non playing staff are about to lose their livelihoods with at best derisory statutory redundancy payments if indeed they are even technically redundant. And still it's 5-1, 1902, we will survive, we are the victims, done nothing wrong, etc. Hearts fans played along for eight years in a money laudering charade on the grounds that they were too important and big to fail and still feel that they deserved the minor success they achieved.

Unusually for me I am at a loss for words. So maybe the words of Joseph Welch at the McCarthy hearings is worth quoting here for any Hearts fans lurking and looking on this thread: Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?

No your not. You signed up for the rollercoaster by selling your club lock, stock, barrel, heart and soul to a dodgy Russian businessman with the hope of World domination. You gave up your right to the badge by accepting all his dodgy practices, including harbouring paedophiles, when all around you could see it was wrong. Cheerio. :brokenyam:

It did happen at Hearts though.

When Andy Webster first went to Hearts the opening offer from Hearts was way in excess of what the top line demand would have been. Always a bit daft going first!

That was well before the Vlad crazy days so it can only have got worse from there.

The DR today suggests that pledges to FOH will massively increase following yesterday's news, TBF, he may be quoting Mad Murray! Really? Someone who has already paid for non existent shares, bought what may be a worthless season ticket is going to hand over more hard earned dosh to an amateur production outfit?

Keep it clean and keep it real, he won't respond to insults but considered searching questions should be answered regardless of who asks them.

I’ve not seen this and I’m sure he did, but I always find it amusing that Michael Stewart is always being referred to as ‘articulate’ and ‘eloquent’ etc., whenever he appears on tv. He’s even been described as a Scottish version of Gary Neville in an article I read. He actually says very little of any intelligence, substance or insight when he’s on but people are obviously so used to your average Scottish footballer being unable to string a sentence together that he’s been elevated to this ‘smart for a footballer’ status.

It’s clear he’s had a decent upbringing and is no thicko, but he always appears a bit nervy and struggles to put any kind of point across despite all his sound-bytes.

I'm still waiting for Media pics/stories of their supporters gathered outside the PBS showing their support/anger - we did it in 1990, septic supporters did it in 1994 and recently, the knuckle-scrapers at Ibrokes did it - or are they still 'believing' ??

:agree: Its like eating a pot noodle when you are starving. Still cack but better than nowt.

To all the Yams looking in, here is something to cheer you up..
http://youtu.be/R9Tw16dNyJs

Just been looking at some of the quotes from Danny Wilson just after he agreed to sign for them, did make me laugh. :greengrin

“I said all along that if the opportunity came along to sign for Hearts I would take it. I did ask the question [about Hearts’ future]. The club have said all along that there’s nothing to concern ourselves with just now. I do read and hear things and it can be unnerving, but the club have given me the opportunity to play here and that was all the assurances that I needed.

“I don’t think the club would offer me a contract if there was no future here. I was happy to sign the deal and I’m just looking forward to next season now.

“You need to prepare for every eventuality, and if [a 15-point deduction] is the case this is something we need to meet head on. There’s no guarantee of that happening next season, so we’ll need to just wait and see.


'I just want to play football and I firmly believe that staying at Tynecastle will benefit my career.

'I really enjoyed my time on loan here and am very pleased the move has been made permanent. This is a great club with great supporters and I'm looking forward to helping bring more success to Hearts.

'I believe the club has a bright future with a lot of good young players and being part of that excites me.'

UBIG making moves to appoint insolvency firm BDO!?

I already posted up a polite comment asking him if he was an elected MP and not a HMFC mouthpiece and should you not be doing what the taxpayers pay you to do?

Needless to say it was removed and you can't post up any questions now.

Utter fannies!

@GeorgeFoulkes: The few Hibees who are gloating over Hearts' problems are shortsighted. An SPL without Rangers and Hearts would mean disaster for the rest.

Aw bless

Poor wee danny

Just watched that Scotland Tonight clip. What an absolute fool of a man Archie Mcpherson is. A bitter auld hun still greetin over what happened to Rangers who thinks all the "top clubs" should be kept in the "top league". He's not realising that it's precisely the act of letting the likes of Rangers and Hearts away with this behaviour thats going to kill the game. These clubs have an effect on people outside of football as well. Innocent people who get caught up in their deceit and their cheating.

Actually it was pretty much a disaster for us with them in it with their cheating. I really don't care about the cash impact, the rest of the league have been cheated for years and that needs addressed. Simple as that pishy breeks.

I made a similar comment on this thread a few pages back, after I watched it last night. Stewart is fairly articulate and well spoken, but that doesn't mean he has anything interesting to say - he offered absolutely zero insight into the situation last night, very strange for someone who pulled a high wage from the club for a number of years under Romanov, and his jumping all over that idiot Archie MacPherson's ridiculous 'contagion' comments, was pretty pathetic.

Worst part was Erchie saying that the Yams own statement was blaming it on Sevco. So out of touch.

I was just in a newsagent in tollcross and an old women was looking at the front page of the evening news and she said " oh jeez allans just bought his season ticket" allan is obviously a fool
