The signing restrictions are to last until the end of the season.
you have to feel for them
NOT :faf::lolyam:
I think it's good for them. Financial restrictions that they should have been operating themselves, being imposed from above. It won't affect the big picture, of course, but it might help give them some breathing space.Quote:

So even if they do get their emargo lifted they can only bring in under 21s and at a lower wage (which to be fair won't be hard I imagine)...
:lolyam:
As CWG says, they're effectively being forced to do what they should have done years ago.Quote:

The SPL have hardly punished them.
What I can't understand is why they don't just pay the outstanding bonuses rather than speaking to their lawyers and saying they will challenge the embargo ( although we are still waiting ). They allegedly raised 1.1 mil from the bake sale, 350k for Templeton from the new Huns and the dough from the Hibs game. Or am I being naive and that money has all been trousered ?Quote:

I'm still unsure what has compelled the various football authorities to grow a new one with regard to their dealings with Yams. I can guess that perhaps they finally realised they were being taken for a ride, that supposed contract amendments were not worth the paper they weren't written on etc, but I believe there must have been some event which precipitated the current actions. My best guess would be that someone on staff at PBS finally recognised the ba's burst & has provided information re lack of payments. Any other thoughts?
interesting also that Yams supposed legal challenge to the embargo does not appear to have happened. Makes you wonder just how many other malpractices are present in the house of Vlad & Fester!
I'll be convinced when they start docking them points at the next non payment.Quote:

You think after all the embargoes the Hearts fans will now realise that they are cheating barstewards!!!! :agree:
The SPL could have banned them from signing anyone.Quote:

Don't see how this is a further ban it seems like a watered down version of current indefinite ban..?
Previously, zero in one out.
Now, one in one out. Albeit with the age & wage restrictions.
This seems to give them more room to breathe than before..?
Am I missing something?
Vlad's not a club official so he can say whatever he likes and will get away with it.Quote:

They are banned from signing anyone untill they are all up to date with wages. They are already behind on last months and they need to shell out another £350k in 16 days time. The only home game before then is the Derby which was sold out weeks ago so no new income their then.Quote:

Yes. They can't bring anyone in until they are up to date with all salaries and they are only 16 days away from another pay day.Quote:

well i have just surfaced after our glorious victory over Celtic to this news it does no get any better.
I urge anyone going to the derby to take your own crisps and mars bars. Don't give them your money at the kiosk

I thought I would have a look at the company that runs the Hearts Shop.
Directors Mr & Mrs Henderson and Mr Alexander. Who are they ?
Turnover just over £ 1 million, with creditors of £160 k at the end of the year of accounts. Corporation Tax of £ 15,759 to pay cos it is a separate company from the Club with its Zillions of losses.
Can't see the point in setting something up just to pay extra Tax ? but its down amongst the creditors so may'be it does not count. :greengrin
Cav / CWG any logic in this set-up ?
The current ban is in place because they are not paying their players. Once they have got their finances sorted they will be permitted to sign players; fair enough in my opinion. Keep in mind that this new restriction will only come into place when they pay up and the SPL are satisfied they are paying regularly, but it also means that they can't just go out and get Satchel or Rim-me. They will be forced to down size or reduce wages to sign players, again I think this is a good punishment from the SPL.Quote:

Is Petrie even anything special in SPL terms? I thought he was an SFA man?Quote:

:jamboak:
So to be clear.
There is a total transfer ban on Hearts until they can provide assurance to the SPL that they are no longer in any deficit in terms of wages, bonuses and any other player remuneration.
Then once (IF!) the SPL have satisfaction that Hearts have paid their outstanding dues there will be an easing of the transfer embargo to allow limited player movement (one in, one out, under 21 etc). This is to remain in place until the end of the Season.
Therefore Hearts are now effectively under a limited transfer embargo (at best) until the end of the season with the specific proviso that they cannot increase their wage bill by £1 even if they can evidence that they are up to date with all remuneration.
Is that correct?
That's how I read it.Quote:
