Good old Craig Whtye was a venture capitalist was he not?
like how they have all these plans but no one has actually talked to the main man yet, its the equivalent of me and my pals having a chat about how we are going to take over Apple
Six ex-students want to play Championship Manager all day in real life.
I take it its a slow news day at the Bun? :hilarious
'Sunsport can reveal', an anonymous source so no direct quotes from anyone and the revelation that no one has even bothered to tell Romanov of this master plan?
Well I'm convinced. No doubt the Fuds will be lubing up for their latest saviour. 6 men rather than 1 this time though, looks like they are getting a bit kinky.
Also they should be the 'third biggest club in the country'???
Surely some mistake they have 400 000 fans and are the big team.
They should maybe just buy the club history and set up new in Hammerfest.
the killing part 4 could be set at the WongadomeQuote:

It’s understood the group members are based in Norway and Sweden and have been involved in ownership of clubs in Scandinavia in the past, although at a minor level.
A look at the actual state of the club, even debt free, and the cash it would take to bring them into the middle of last century, never mind this, will see this lot scarpper. Their dewy eyed / pished student memories of 20/40 years ago will assume, quite rightly, that the stadium is now European compliant – instead its a subject of some controversy that its allowed to stay open at all in its present state.
As for the bit I’ve highlighted.
There's a few on here have ownership at a minor level, aka a few shares in Hibs. :smug:
Fancy putting in a bid? I’m sure between us we could have these Foundation (more the powder puff stuff wimin used to use although the liquid[ation] has potential for a joke, rather than anything substantial) folk running to the press with tales of a syndicate saviours a few from the North and other investors from the East.
Do you think the Foundation have any cash? Some sting that could be. I’ll have to give it some thought. :faf:

Yeah there's a better deal to be had at ER, maybe Mr Farmer should issue a press release re the potential investment opportunityQuote:

Not my favoured outcome but still not bad.

More ink wasted on fairytale talk of bids to buy Hertz!!!!
Stadium worth £7m? Players worth £0. Debt will be around £25m unless Vlad adds to previous write offs/forgiveness of 38m.
Even if Vlad was stupid enough to write off two thirds of their current debt the Scandics (and Without Foundation?) would need to pay £15m for a club worth half that - in assets. There's no cant daft enough to do this. This (sex crime riddled) club has been haemorrhaging money for years and cant instantly be turned into a profit making organisation in a piss poor football league with negligible income. For starters they have 500k to find for the next 3 years to cover the deferred HMRC outstanding amount and their income will be dropping when the Saviles desert them in droves after a bottom six finish and with diddy men brought in this summer to replace the overpaid leeches leaving.
Yet another waste of time. Vlad still holds the strings.........

With over 12,000 tickets sold, a maroon army will descend upon Easter Road to back the Jambos against Inverness CT in the semi-final of the Scottish Communities League Cup.
Where are the 400,000 fans?:confused:
I really hope the Hearts fans smash every seat in Easter road this week. Be nice to know they are contributing to their own cash flow problems. And we'll all have nice shiny new seats in time for the visit of Aberdeen.
Ewan Murray@mrewanmurrayNot aware of Hearts fans having previous for wrecking stadia. Pretty off for their own club to issue a warning against doing so

What's interesting about this is that they 1. obviously realise the truth about their own fans or they wouldn't have posted the warning 2. must have been slapped with a large bill for damage after the cup game but most of all 3. are only worried about fans doing this because they can't afford to pay for it and not because it's the wrong thing to do. Hearts class.

we know its got sod all to do with hearts having any professionalism or moral fibre, more so that they are getting a very twitchy bum about costs they can't pay, but it really doesn't do anything to enhance anyone's views of Scottish football.
Did this carry on happen when old firm games took place?
@ScottBurns75: #Hearts plan to release Danny Grainger at the end of the season.
He'll still be recovering from a serious injury when they release him. Hearts show their class again.Quote:

Oh and he was buying an 8K watch...mustve been paid. Also shows you how much hes on if he splashes 8K on a watch.
12k is a shockingly low amount, we sold out all 3 stands when we played st johnstone at Tynie. Although we are in no position to slag there attendances, Hearts 12k semi final is very bad.Quote:

Decent back 3 of 4, never heard of Mullen. Walker & Holt looked good when they played us- no formality an ICT win
I really don't understand the attendance rivalries.
Hearts have a marginally bigger fan base than us
Who cares
It doesn't affect me in any way
I support the better club in so many more relevant ways than just attendance figures
I'd rather be in a crowd of 15000 hibbies than 16000 *****
I wonder if the SFA will have words for fielding a weakened team :tee hee:
gutted i really thought that after 7 years of hope that this year would be the financial meltdown at the PBS, Now another cup final and probably a million in the bag when they beat st mirren 2 cups in the bag in less than a year (humbug)
they bake cakes to survive why can they no just die ? this thread will have 100k hits and ill be long grey beard and still wishing GUTTED:flag:

They've got space for another three... I know in England you're allowed 5 under 23's and 5 over 23's but I'm not sure what it is up here. To be honest more and more clubs aren't going to want to do business with hearts due to late payments and things like that. These are short term fixes and will only keep them going to the end of the season and after that! They don't have anyone to replace these guys!Quote:

It's horrible, cheating and worst of all it's against the morals of which the game is based, fair play! Let them die and don't feel any compassionQuote:

Think you are stretching it saying two Liverpool players. A once promising Rangers player and a huddy youngster, nobody in England wanted on loan would be a better description.
Glad you all think 2 cups are in the bag this season, take it you mean League Cup but I can't think of any other cups Hearts are still in. :greengrin
Finally, they will not get an additional £500,000 for getting to the League Cup final. The Evening News figures were plucked out the air and referred to £500,000 they will earn out the entire cup run. Can't see it being that much as I doubt they will sell many strips on the back of the "little cup" final which doesn't matter to any of them.
The clock is still ticking and Hearts will struggle financially for a long time to come if they survive at all.

Remember last year they won the Scottish Cup with the associated income that brought.
This season they have the Liverpool ties money, money from Wallace and Templeton, and a run to the Diddy Cup Final and £1m approx from fans and share issue. Despite all this they have repeatedly failed to pay players on timne and have multiple other debts (inluding rent and rated to CEC)
Does this add up to £6 million? Nope.
They have the first instalment of the tax bill due in May iirc and they are due to start repaying Vlad on top of the shortfall.
The figures just don't stack up.
Tick tock.

The only directors are Serge and Roman and it allows them to act and vote on issues in which they have a personal interest.

Can some of the more enlightened amongst us explain why Hearts have an "issued share capital" figure of £146.9m
By contrast Hibs appear to have an "issued share capital" figure of £1.2m
I seem to rememer that STF put £1m ish into the club to cover the shortfalls and is this the £1.2m shown? What does the £147m mean then in Hearts case?
Apologies in advance.
I'll believe it when/if it actually happens.Quote:
