Today's i newspaper reporting Hearts' problems as being fall-out from the Huns being out of the SPL. No mention of the problems being the result of many years of yamathematical mismanagement.
I wondered how long it would take for some media outlets to start peddling nonsense like this :rolleyes:Quote:

They were having problems long before the huns fell of their perch. IMO just a load of media bull**** tae try and make it look like they were right about the fallout from the huns getting punted.Quote:

According to Fedovotas at the weekend, the Board "believes" they made a profit last year, without the need for debt forgiveness. As you say Cav, strange that this is only a belief when the year end was four months ago. I would be very interested to understand how they've made a profit, as they had an £8m shortfall the previous year.Quote:

On a serious note though, was told last night that it's actually a lot worse than what they are letting on. We've heard it a lot over the years and we can be forgiven for thinking it's just another rumour. But believe me I know a few folk in football who have close contacts with Hearts. He has said Admin really is on the cards now more than ever. Also said there is no chance of players wages being paid on time either next month. Will just have to wait and see if he's right.

We've exhausted pretty much all possibilities."

Rangers ****ed.
Hearts going the same way.
In hope this is our ground hog day.
ENDOF
If their 400,000 worldwide fanbase cough up £5.00 each they will have £250k left.
I know the tax tribunal meet next month but how long will it take for them to issue a decision and how many appeals will Hearts have? The Rangers one seems to have gone on for ages.
All it needs is R.I.H at the bottom :wink:Quote:

It says that if the share issue is a success they might just have enough to last the season but if the tax case hits they'll be f***ed anyway. :na na:Quote:

Well, I suppose it's reassuring for us. :wink::aok:
Maybe one of the financial whizzes will be able to answer this.
Just had a wee look at the brochure out of interest and I noticed that they're offering incentives to buy shares, like free tickets to matches, hospitality, signed shirts and free season tickets. Are they allowed to do this?
In financial services there's rules about gifts in return for business, could this be viewed in the same way?
Those jokers have been living way beyond their means for years, playing players that they could nowhere near afford and they have gotten away with this cheating for years. Finally its caught up with them and they deserve everything they get. We have the same carry on with hearts every year and now its time something is actually done about it.
I wont miss them. I want them to go the exact same way as their pals from Glasgow did.
Rot in hell jambos :fenlon:giruy:
Tick Tock . . .
:brokenyam:
Also for the financial gurus out there. There is a lot of talk of admin and Vlad leasing Tynecastle back to the new entity. Given that it seems clear that Ukio/Ubig need cash quickly, why would admin be better than liquidation and selling the ground? They may not get the full asking price but they would get a lump sum now.
:faf::faf::faf:
Not sure if you have the facts correct there Mo.Quote:

Let's not forget that they really are a BIG team.
:rolleyes:
IMO, administration is very unlikely. If there is one, the administrators will come to a very quick decision that there is no alternative to liquidation.Quote:
