If the Hearts fans were taking the piss out of Petrie or Farmer having similar then we'd all be spewing with rage.

Perspective eh lads?

Perspective indeed Agent Romanov has single handedly done them much more damage off the pitch than any of us ever could, and certainly more than whalearse ever achieved in his efforts to wipe us out. I am sure he is trying to dodge the authorities but he is more to be pitied than scorned!

Off topic - but in the photo that accompanies the DR story, the man walking behind Romanov is an old family friend of mine, Pilmar Smith who ran a bookmaking business out of Balerno.

Does anyone know if he's still alive, and if so, is still involved with Hearts?

The last I heard he was head of Lothian Buses.

I'm pretty sure he is still alive, I read a story not that long ago that he was stepping down from his role at Lothian buses due to some sort of dispute with other board members

Thanks, LB. Good to hear.

My grandfather passed away a few years ago and I was expecting to see him at his funeral but he didn't show. I'm sure he would have attended had he known.

Pilmar is a lovely man and I've many fond memories of him and he was an exceptional host. A Hearts man through-and-through which dispels the theory that they're all bad.

He is a member at Archerfield and plays a few times a week. (well at least did last year)

Seems a bit too convenient

I'd put odds on he's pulling a stroke

Nothing could convince me that he is unwell. It seems pretty clear to me that it is another Vad scam.

Does anyone remember Ernest Saunders and his remarkable recovery from dementia ?

Aye the only person ever to make a complete recovery from Alzheimer's disease after being released from jail.

Also Ken Dodd got off a tax fraud case in 1989 partially due to medical reports that he would be lucky to stay alive through the trial. He made an amazing recovery and emmbarked on a nine month run at the London Palladium. He is still going strong 24 ears later at the age of 85.

So Vlad has delivered a dodgy Doctor's line. Only panel for him has the words 'Lithuanian' and 'Judiciary' on front of it.

Totally agree with this but if they are found guilty of financial doping then there is little chance of it happening.

So, Vlad has had a minor stroke and Rix was stroking a minor, who'd have thought it?!! :confused:

Hey Sergey,

Pilmar is alive and kicking in North Berwick. A very good friend of mine frequently seeks him out for reassurance re the Hearts latest situation! If you like I could arrange for a re-union!

Cheers,

They told me that I'd done a cracking job at Hearts and although they were not particularly keen to take me on they asked me if I had ever thought of putting my club with their club and seeing what could be created.

These were Hibs shareholders and wealthy men in their own right.

"I came home and said to Ann 'You'll never believe the daft idea that was put to me'.

The next day I took my vice-chairman Pilmar Smith out for lunch and told him what they had said.

He said it was a brilliant idea.

I said you must be joking.

I didn't think he was the full shilling.

so I got my wife to ring him next morning.

but Pilmar still thought it was a good idea.

So that's what got us thinking about it.

Then we sat down and looked at it, and it made a lot of sense.

We're not the only ones suspicious about this, the Lithuanian authorities are reported to be dissatisfied with the medical certificate and have requested more evidence.
