What an absolute roaster.

"They are investing money in the club and they are supporting their culture, along with Walter Scott and other great men. This is really a legacy."

Fair point Uncle Vlad, Sir Wattie all but dug his own grave attempting to wipe out an horrendous debt as well.

Arrogant lunatic. I hope his 'empire' dies including hearts.

Ps I'm sure someone could do a photoshop of that picture of him kissing the cup, Paul Hartley perhaps?? ;-)

Does he mean Walter Scott, celebrated investor in Rangers, or Walter Smith, author of The Heart of Midlothian and other novels???

[Hibernia Na Eir]

what a waste of Newspaper column.

Why isn't there a megalomaniac smilie?

I keep reading that Vlad has spent £60M on hearts since 2004, surely that can't be right. £60M for 2 Scottish cups? and still up to their eyeballs in debt. I would like to see a break down of that spending.

It will be back of the fag-packet accounting.

Hearts debt when he took over was £20m approx. It's now (including the swaps and stuff) about £40m.There's £20m.

The losses in the seven years he's been here are upwards of £5m.each year. There's another £35m at least.

Not the way I would do it, but you can see where the figures come from.

Notice the name on the cup just below where he is planting his lips - yep you've guessed it Hibernian Football Club.

Oooh right enough, something lost in translation perchance. Probably referring to Walter Mitty, subscriber to all things yammish...

The delusion of Vlad is fascinating. Imagine him and chuckie Green having a debate about Scottish Football.

Had a wee rake around to see if anything was new with U.B.I.G. and never realised they opened a subsidiary in the U K. in 2010.
