Sounds like the benefactor has realised that they've not exactly been clever with all that cash to date otherwise they'd just chuck more money at the folly.Quote:

I'd put Ann Budge in charge of Trump's project to build a wall on the Mexican Border.
Imagine that moment when the forward-thinking football club owner wows The Donald with her idea for an 8000 mile long stretch of glass curtain, fitted with solar panels, and a giant plaza for all the Mexicans to graffiti and protest in
They appear to to owe JB Contractors £0.75 million for work on the ground. See there last accounts.Quote:

According to Moira Gordon's impressive spin; despite being massively late, over budget and with no real idea of when they're going to be finished, it isn't so bad, because it's still less than half of the £51million that Romanov said he was going to spend.
As if anyone actually believes that figure had any credibility at all:aok:
Is that not Budge's brothers company?Quote:

Aye it's her brother and he's been told to wait. My big sister always told me you'd get your money just shut up.Quote:

On a side note, the slides are so piss poor they look like they have been done on a 30 year old version of PowerPoint and printed onto acetates.

Hope they get a refund on their £1m 'super-pitch.'
And all with a great view of a castle !!Quote:

Funny how they aren't comparing it to our stands' final costs v budgets.:confused:
They're on the "believe" moonshine again.Quote:

We all know the £51m was based on very little at all, but comparing Budge’s folly to that is a fool’s game.
You could build a decent stadium for that price, how are those noddies not fuming about how much that shambles of a stand has set them back?Quote:

Worth reading for comedy value.
Dear old Budge never learns... despite all that’s gone wrong, still bragging about how they have the best this and best that.
Some jakey (probably on a freebie) tells her the Skyline Lounge offers the best hospitality in Scottish football, so she runs her mouth off about it.
I know Hearts supporters are easy to dupe, but there must be people connected with that club who cringe at her every utterance?
Boring. 51 Was funny.Quote:

In fact, you could say it's been under her nose all this time.
She is an absolute idiot.Quote:

But they haven’t and they have ended up with an under performing expensive team and an unfinished stand 3 years later.
Now they don’t know whether they want to thank Budge or get her out - she’s done quite a lot of damage to her reputation with the Levein carry on and how long it took to move him elsewhere.
Shambles FC.
Everything, absolutely everything they do, idea they have, player they sign is the bestest ever and nothing else compares to it.
FFS you started building the One Tier restricted view rust bucket in November 2016.....yes 2016 and is still not finished.
Wow now there’s a first you can be proud off Budgie. 3 years and counting and you’ve still not finished it. Brilliant!
