Obama has been called away from a crucial meeting regarding Guantanamo Bay to discuss Hearts' financial plight and the political ramifications with his chiefs of staff.
The two are linked - Obama knows that Guantanamo Bay has to be closed, so he's looking for an alternative location. However the classified CIA report has already ruled out the PBS on humanitarian grounds.Quote:

None of us knows what will happen - but I really cant see any professional administrator letting it all go for buttons - and even if they do, the ongoing HMRC / stadium bills should ensure that they cant really outspend us for the foreseeable.
happy days indeed
Just wondering. Have the Huns tried to use this as evidence that Scottish Football faced armageddon without them yet?
Should Mr Ian Murray M.P be getting on with M Peeie' business rather that fannying about hopelessly trying to save the Yams ???...Quote:

Not exactly overworked, are they?
For as long a HoMFC stay out of administration they are declaring themselves to be a going concern - i.e. able to meet their debts as they fall due. While The Ukio liquidator might offer a discount for early settlement he would be failing in his basic duties if he accepted £2m for a £15m debt from a going concern. They would have to enter administration and admit insolvency for him to accept a significantly lower offer.Quote:

Its amazing to see how many votes UKIP received during the local elections down south, surely Nigel Farage must have pledged that his party would do all they could to save Hearts from financial armageddon by sending those pesky Lithuanians home which resulted in multitudes of the 400,000 turning out down south to support his party.Quote:

Absolutely correct !!Quote:

I doubt if we will ever know how much of his own money STF put into HFC
B list politician finds something to do which might, just might raise his profile a bit with some of the thickoes he is meant to represent so long as he can keep the issue and himself in the limelight.Quote:

You get what you vote for.
Opinion pieces by Barry and Mark Donaldson have been concocted in fantasy land with no basis in reality. All solutions seem to have them shedding their debt with little impact because of political ramifications (aye right!). How editors let these views be exposed is mind boggling. Standards have dropped alarmingly.Quote:

That line is being taken as a sop to local creditors. The last they want is someone in Edinburgh taking a lead to claim monies due in court and fogging up their cash flow.

Look at the list of small creditors conned by Rangers (r.i.p.) whilst they were putting out a line that #allisbarry. Hearts' will be smaller but similar.

exactly, a boxing match with a knock out punch in the first round is a real disappointment. Let this go the full distance and it be decided on points after a vicious and bloody battle leaving them alive but unfit to do much more than just mumble on about how they used to be a contender!Quote:

Our Council won't vote against it, thats a certainty !

He didn't, Hearts triggered an extension due to his terms and conditions on his current deal. They need to sign low cost players like him, as no sensible player will sign for themQuote:

Can any of our more tax/revenue/spend/compliance savvy contributors enlighten us as to how much working capital they need to have available and what for in order to be able to juggle things?
If the group in the wings were collectively sitting on a sum between £5 and £6 million how would that affect their options?
It wouldn't as UBIG's assets are still frozen so the shares can't be transferred to anyone. Hearts are forced to continue with the #StatusQuo at the moment. I've mentioned earlier in the thread, whilst it's highly likely Hearts will go pop, it's even more likely UBIG will go pop sooner.Quote:

What you lot don't seem to appreciate is that the security of Europe, nay the World, depends on a stong Hearts. Over here in Germany, they are secretly re-arming, in the knowledge that the only organisation that stopped them winning the LAST two world wars may soon be defunct.
They know, as I'm sure everyone else does, that without hearts to save us once again, the Germans WILL be victorious this time.
You have been warned!!!
I see Hearts reporting of their financial results has been hidden away on their website on a Saturday morning with so much spin that I'm dizzy.
Debts of around £25 million (a year ago) being embraced by the masses as 'great news' on their twitter feed...
