What's the chances of us getting a bye into the next round with the Yams unable to fulfil their fixture commitments due to being in administration or liquidation before December?

Given the importance of basketball in Lituania it looks like this is quite a major turn of events.
Does anyone know what Vlads involvement with the club was?

So the 1200 Bosnian bauxite workers ain't been paid for 3 months. The bank have moved in to secure debts against the real estate of their basketball team. HoMFC haven't got a pot to piss-in and the Ukio share price is trading at an all time low.
Only the most gullible would want to invest in shares in that mob. Step forward your everyday Yam.

Indeed it does. It would appear that the building was financed by the bank via UBIG (since UBIG seem to have been the operators/owners of the site)...this would suggest that UBIG have been unable to keep their commitments to the bank who have therefore been required to take the physical asset as recompense for the failed loan. The bank are clearly not in the business of running enterntainment venues so will look to off load what they can to regain their lost monies. Now I know Romanov controls both entities but I would suggest that the bank is forced to take some actions that even Vald doesn't like to preserve it's own balance sheet....
Probably not significant in itself but would clearly suggest that Vlad doesn't have the means to throw Hearts a £3-4m lifeline just now even if he wanted to (which he doesn't !)

Is it just me or am I the only one who thinks hertz wont be in the SPL come Feb1?
I reckon he will cash in on the mugs and sell what good players they have then go into administration or whatever they want to call it (Yaministration)

What is interesting is the amount of Yams who seriously believe that this is just another false dawn for us - of course it may well be, but if it's as serious as it seems (and I've no reason to believe otherwise) their complacency will be their downfall.
The arrogance on display on much of the social media that I read yesterday was unbelievable - not on the football side, that (unfortunately) cannot really be countered at the moment - but the dismissal of any notion that they are on the brink, even after the share issue and the Fedotovas interview, is unbelievable. Even for them.Last edited by Stevie Reid; 06-11-2012 at 11:04 AM.

Slightly struggling to think of any player who's been "incredible". Who does he mean? Nade? Kyle?

Reality finally hits home with John Robertson:
"I asked a lot of questions about the state of the club and how they were going to go forward.
"The club is in a severe financial state.
"But it's not all about wages. It's about keeping the floodlights on, pitch maintenance, the plumbing and other staff salaries.

The begging bowl is well and truly out with this share issue.
They are basically saying, 'if you don't buy shares, we won't make it to the end of the season.'
So, if the yams do buy shares and they see it through to the end of the season, .... then what??" Whatever the future may hold, Fans of this unique club will stand firm in Hibernians corner. Yes, united they stand, those wonderful supporters and The greatest football club on earth, " - Hibernian F.C. The team that wouldn't die. Click here

What I really don't understand is why no redundancies of non playing staff? They employ nearly double the amount of people we do but have a smaller turnover. So far they have not embarked on any meaningful cost cutting at all.
Guess we'll just have to sit back and enjoy the show. Who knows how it will all work out but I don't think it will be long before the end credits.

As as aside - normally when there's a share issue the prospective investor is able to view a current set of accounts to weigh up the viability of any purchase. That's logical and a no-brainer.
Question - what was the year-end date of the last set of Yam accounts? Surely those accounts could be 18 months out of date and the situation could be far worse than was previously audited.

From the few jambos i've spoken to and the general mood of there fans that i can make out it sounds like it's going to be a massive flop, if that's the case could it be curtains before December?

If the wage bill alone is £600k per month, they'll probably need to raise a damn sight more than that over the next 10 days or so, and I honestly don't see that happening if the previous 2 months are a yardstick.
