I don't think I've ever enjoyed myself in anything football-related, albeit in certain way, as I have reading Jambos Kickback today. If there are any Hearts fans looking in on this site, who contributed in any way, I seriously thank you.
Yes someone would have to make a complaint but after reading almost all of this thread and the one on the PM board the problem the police will have is where to start... Once opened I can guarantee it will be one huge massive can if worms. It's probably a hell of a lot more than 12.5 million that the mad one has embezzled.
Is there a paper trail ... Prob not
Where are the persons responsible ... Who knows.
Put it this way anyone and I repeat anyone who has bought shares are now finding out the hard way... That they are not worth the money they are written on and they are highly unlikely to see their money again.
The thing is, my mate was never ever looking for a return on his money. It was an emotional investment but he expects to get what he paid for.
He's well off financially, buys season tickets for his family and even does the hospitality from time to time. Absolutely loves the club but hates the thought that he's had several thousand pounds taken for nothing.
Great punchline.
If the (more sensible) Jambos (i.e. those who are capable of buttoning their own shirts and don't piss their pants every time they need to go "wee-wee") are slooowwwwly now getting around to thinking about when their shares will be issued it might not be too long before someone chips in with an official complaint, expressed along the lines of "where's ma shay-urs yooz?" - things will get tasty if this comes to pass.
They've been reasonably solid as a support up to now, all it takes is a few splitters and it'll make World War Z look like Mary Poppins.
He's one of the lucky ones. (If you get what i mean) I know guys who put some if their family savings in (cash) and just cannot believe this has happened. He was warned/advised but went ahead with it. He's about 1200 quid (maybe more) down. He's one of the 1-5 brigade etc
I think it only fair that their support suffer financially for the small successes they enjoyed while their club was cheating with money they didn't have. I sincerely hope they continue to be ripped off, as it's pretty obvious they are stupid enough to fall for it.
I told a jambo workmate at the time - who put a few hundred in the pot.. id said - you wont see a penny of that again.. He decided to say recently that hearts were now debt free now and it was with his help... and that he would probably recoup a fortune from the shares... Aasked him if he had a certificate for the shares.. and he said.. NO... :greengrin:greengrin total archiehole
Any chance we can get this thread back on track? (Chasing after a pesky hare, obviously!)
Must admit I don't think he will have a leg to stand on. So far Hearts have always played the game to the limit. It would surely be cheaper to issue a few bits of paper rather than give money back. If they do it for him I am sure a lot of Jambos who have smelt the coffee would follow suit.
