Good luck to the club that was formerly based from the dance hall Heart of Midlothian in Gorgie.
It's the fact that he pretends that he is doing these things that winds some of us up. He's not a "sports reporter" he's a mouthpiece for the Hearts board pretending to be a journalist. He's the very thing that is wrong with football journalism in this country, too afraid to say anything bad for fear of being tossed off the gravy train.Quote:

He's the very definition of a Succulent Yam. in the "Hearts Financial Meltdown" saga he is the canonical equivalent of Jim Traynor. A man who will happily spread disinformation to hide what's really going on.
16th may not be a Saturday if the yams have their own calendar in the same way that they have their own economic system.Quote:

This is covered quite extensively in one of the older Hibs books. Think the gist of it was that Hearts backdated their birth date by a year. Don't think it really matters. It also says in the book that players of both clubs previously turned out for a team called White Star. Don't know much else.Quote:

I had one of the funniest experiences I’ve ever had at the football wondering out the Ivory Hotel about 2.30 on Sunday.
I was waiting for some mates to catch up when a rather rotund Jambo – aged about 40 and wearing NHS specs wondered past. I was just thinking in my head that the guy looked a really fat version of one of the Proclaimers…. when an identical twin of the first one walked past. Well, not quite as fat, but same face, NHS specs and glaiket look.
Anyway, I mentioned to my mate I was standing with (I thought out of earshot) that the Proclaimers had let themselves go…..prompting Proclaimer Number 1 (the fattest one) to go MENTAL…calling me a “weegie ****” and offering a square go, and generally standing giving the old “come ahead” hands...
Eventually fat Proclaimer’s mates dragged him away (including the “good” Proclaimer), but I couldn’t move for laughing…
I reckon the poor ********s must get it all the time and I struck a nerve being the millionth person to point out their resemblance Hibs most ‘famous’ twin supporters.. but it was some over-reaction…hilarious…

Barry Anderson is as much of an irrelevance as the miserable little dying club he writes propaganda for.
How do you do that mate?Quote:

“He had a lot of dreams, but his dreams never came true,”
I'm predicting right now that tomorrow's story from Barry will contain very little information and will be vague at best. Have the shares even been registered with Companies House yet? (Do they need to?)
It's a feature on a lot of Twitter apps. I use Tweetbot on my iphone and there's an option when viewing someones profile to see all the tweets to themQuote:

I am as confused as the next man (or last poster) about this. I do recall though,years ago when we(a group of workmates and I) had a 2 year maintenance contract ,and had to be registered at companies house/insured for a minimum of 1 million pounds in the event of any man being injured etc,etc. the contract was with a nationalised company (NCB) for the care and maintenance of Monktonhall Colliery. we fulfilled all the needs of the company concerned, but were forever plagued by the VAT section of HMRC. they insisted that we pay our VAT on a set date. on several occasions this date was well before our payday. in other words, we were to pay VAT, sometimes 2 weeks before we had actually been paid for services provided. this VAT repayment was 3 monthly,iirc.our advisors/accountants were paronoid about the possibility of us defaulting! drove me up the wa' at times. I'm sure the VAT office was in Semple St. at the time. how can the gorgie mob keep getting away with what looks like murder? there must be something going on,that allows them such leeway.this looks like grand larceny on a huge scale, and the public at large are the losers. if it was a small business with 7/8 employees , they'd all be on the dole now as the business would have folded due to pressure from HMRC.Quote:

The attitude of HMRC has changed a lot in the past 10 years. It's true that, in years gone by, the Revenue and (in particular) the VAT Office would just stick to the rules and not pay attention to the implications. I had many conversations about "blood out of a stone" and "putting people on the dole." The situation you describe was common back then.Quote:

In Hearts' case, and I have seen this replicated in others, they ARE getting the regular PAYE and VAT payments (albeit after threatening them with winding-up). On the larger settlement, they recognise that they had little chance of getting it in January, and are more likely to get it when the ST money is coming in. That way, they get another few months' PAYE, and save the State in benefits.
I heard today that hearts will have the begging bowl out again as they need the fans to bail them out again now they cant make any coin from a cup final dvd and other merchandise. Could be balls but thought i would post it anyway.
I think its inevitable that they will be passing the begging bowl around again soon. By their own figures they needed 2m to make it to the end of the season but they raised half of that, add that to the less than expected revenue from being in the bottom 6 and them taking less money from sevco. All this and a probable drop in attendences will mean only one thingQuote:

appreciate your input on this. still makes my blood boil that these cretins seem to be getting away with it all. there fans are not to blame, although they've just taken the ride as they've got a couple of cups in the bag and thought nothing else matters. their day will surely come, when Hector eventually says enough is enough.I still feel very bitter about the way we were treated though in the nineties. small group of working men doing all the right things,paying the tax as it should be, and earning an honest living.Quote:
