He had probably nipped up to the Central for a couple of pints with the other wasters John.

The mystery third bidder?

Not being in Edinburgh these days means i am obviously missing something, but reading all the (piss poor press thats outs there) suggests that one of the 3 bidders is a given for taking this pile of poo on..............but if they are all talking about @£5/6m bids (some spread over umpteen years) and the debts alone are north of £25m, surely they are taking a wizz in the wind and they will all amount to the square root of heehaw and the adminstration will have to admit that they have been fleecing the muppets the same as the mad one............
or am i struggling with cross border understanding!!!
Sky interview with Bryan Jackson here, when asked if any of the 3 bids were acceptable in taking the club forward his reply was no.
Some work still to be done by all 3 me thinks. :greengrin

It has been a very hot day today, and I got sunburnt. was cooling down as this evening progressed but i'm all hot/cold and shivery now, having read the latest pages of this saga unfolding. It has mair twists than JR Ewing on Dallas! I'm now looking oot my list of bus companies, to get quotes for Greenock on the 10th/11th of Aug. (don't know if sky can switch to another venue last min.) certainly wont be CharlieIirons buses though:wink:
There is not a hope of planning permission being blocked. The City Council would get flayed on appeal and Salmon would not intervene after getting his fingers burned by Donald Trump.
Even Hearts and the City Council have admitted that Tynecastle is 'not fit for purpose'. Anyone recall the recent feasibility study part funded by the City Council? The pitch is not big enough for EUFA rules. The old main stand would cost a fortune to replace. You could probably build a complete new stadium for less cost than that. The rest of the stadium isn't up to much either.
The paranoid obsession that the City Council will somehow 'rescue' Hearts is up there with most conspiracy theories. It will not happen.
I suspect that Tynecastle will be sold on but may be leased back to a Hearts Newco short-term until the housing market recovers.
Hearts stink
The administrator says they've for enough to last 3-4 months.
Do they not need to have enough for a full season?
I wonder what he would say if asked if e can guarantee they can play a full season's fixtures?
The SPL should be in there asking tough questions and feeding answers back to the other clubs, fans and the media. Where there is doubt, they should also be explaining what contingency plans are in place to ensure that the season is not disrupted. There is no reason the season should go pear shaped because the Yams are unable to fulfil fixtures - the SPL/SFA have had ample warning.
It gets better

No.
He won't be asked.Quote:

There is no SPL/SPFL rule that states that a club has to guarantee they can play all fixtures. A club would be punished if they actually failed to play a fixture without good reason.
Maybe what you're talking about should be in place, but it's not. It would have to be agreed by the clubs. I also doubt whether any club could practically guarantee in advance that they could pay for all of their activities up to a year in advance. Most clubs operate on the assumption that they will receive revenues during the season - they don't have the costs of the season fully funded in advance.
I think you're also over-estimating the amount of difficulty caused by a club ceasing operations during a season. It just means that the league carries on a club short and the other teams miss out on one or two home games. The Swiss league did this in 2011/12 when Neuchatel were kicked out of the league after 18 games of a 36 game season. Everyone else missed one home game.

The other problem about what you're suggesting is that if the authorities demoted a club in severe financial difficulties, they would potentially make the situation far worse. Hearts are not that attractive to buyers as it is, if they were demoted to (say) the Third Division then they would become a lot less attractive and would consequently be in greater danger of liquidation.
I actually thought BJ was quite impressive here though the alacrity with which he said NO was pleasing. :wink: It really only serves to confirm my impression though that BDO are p-ing in the wind for now. They're working their way through the standard admin template, making a decent fist of it, keeping themselves busy & justifying their fees but they know that someone's parked a great big submarine across the road ahead & TBH I don't think they have a clue (understandably) how to proceed beyond that point. Happy days!
ps, he really does have a cadaverous look!
Five Stars football ltd????? Surely this is a Rangers reference to the 5 stars they have above their badge, the reason for which has never been clear.
This Massone bloke seems to be the bogey man they don't want anywhere near the PBS.
I know he ripped off Livi. for a few quid and has a few screws loose, but does he have any other previous and what is his day job ?
