They've got these friendly matches lined up too. We were told these would be full to capacity with the baked cakes selling out (wee fat robbo loves cake) so surely #allisbarry?
He's not done a very good job then - he joined in 2003.Quote:

£6 well spent

And over there is another stand we don't own.
Over there is where the 5-1 1902 hobos sit (cue cheers) in a stand that, you got it, we don't own.
And finally here's a stand that is unsafe.
And we don't own it either"
He was arguing for a merger with Hearts ten years ago if I recall correctly.Quote:

He added: “The financial situation at the club means that there is no way we would have had the money to go splashing out on a team bus to take us to Manchester.
“Fortunately for us, Charlie has come in and offered to take us there and back for free, which is a fantastic gesture.
Hearts are a shambolic, sad excuse of a football club.
The really sad thing (and i mean this) is there are poor fans out there who are struggling to make ends meet and instead of supporting their families, they are paying money to footballers who are earning multiples of what they earn.
It is really sickening if im being honest.

Nothing in the article suggested anyone had new fears or related the lack of sales to impending doom. The article writer was actually trying to put a faintly positive slant on their fund raising.
Disclaimer: I'm not saying #allisbarry, just that the article/headline was a bit pointless
Maybe he needs to keep the yam support onside to help sales.....Quote:

Pleasingly they didn't say that there's a bus to bring them back :greengrinQuote:

They'll still exist, with a far smaller base of die-hard supporters, still call themselves HoMFC.
In the mean time, they've bled the genuine supporters dry and they've no money left to buy anything next season and it'll take them years to build any savings back up and pay of personal debts.
Just been reading the Lithuanian president's priorities (in the Lithuania Tribune online) now her country has become president of the EU for the next six months. Not a word abouit saving the Hearts from going into liquidation as Ian (I'm a MP) Murray would have us believe.

And it is people like John Robertson and Gary MacKay (both very well off) that should be held responsible if this whole thing collapses. They're the ones who pushed the share issue and are enticing people to part with money they might not be able to afford. And BDO have their own self interest in wrestling money out of Yam Fan hands - bet a lot of it goes to pay them. The whole thing stinks and in any other industry would be labelled a scam.Quote:
