    They are so classy that McKay is advocating the misuse and abuse of the administration process as a vehicle to defraud the taxpayer and for the club to abdicate their responsibilities for years of overspending and largesse dumping this on the ordinary citizen allowing the club to carry on pretty much as before.

    It is scandalous how the administration laws are abused in this way.
    It's also worth pointing out that it's VAT and PAYE that HMRC are chasing now. That means that the fans and players have already paid that tax and HoMFC have kept it and are now asking them to pay it again.

    And the suckers are falling for it.

    I mentioned that earlier. They've taken this money already and mis-used it.

    Them and their glesga cousins are cut from the same cloth, banging on about class and dignity whilst in reality, they are cheating, bigoted and arrogant ****bags. Both of them have/are reaping what they sewed

    They were two big suitcases he had with him as he arrived at the PBS, why would he take these suitcases in to the ground with him, and what was in them, dirt money, he can only be here for a couple of days so strange to see these large suitcases with him.
    Probably money laundering, expect the club shop to do really well today, probably to the tune of £450k

    Absolute Stitch Up, they cannae see it!!!

    Ok, ive been reading, watching and thinking about all that has gone on over the past week regards HOMFC, I may be wrong but my conclusion is the following!
    They launch a share issue to raise £1.75m which the majority of the investment will NOT be used to pay debts and very much for the future investment for the club with youth development etc, obviously a small amount will be aside to help with the day to day running of the football club.
    within 24hours there is a statement released by the press regarding a £1.8m tax bill, amount is awfy fishy, which they in turn state that they knew about this tax bill and although the timing could be better there is no way that the stance regarding the finances raised by the share issue will be used for anything other than future development of the club, so this is now ongoing where they are trying to broker a deal and also argue that the amount is incorrect and should be somewhat less due the Lithuanian players only paying 50% tax in this country.
    As the week progresses it is clear that the share issue is not selling all that well, ticket sales for matches aren't great and the gap of 2 weeks with no football is hurting the finances, remember the players wages are looming on 16th.
    7th October, HMRC make public that there is a winding up order on Hearts for a figure just short of £0.5m, looking at their web-site they issue an immediate statement stating they knew nothing about this and they are in talks to get a deal sorted.
    Roll on a couple of hours - club issue a second statement telling their fans that is they don't dig deep the club will play their last game on 17th November against St Mirren.

    So, my take on it!!!
    They suddenly realise they have the best opportunity to blackmail the fans to buy into the worst share issue ever launched to man, they will sell out all upcoming games along with TV revenue streams will be tremendous with the best part being that their whole tag line that money will be used for youth and future development can now be thrown out the window as the supporters are going cap in hand to buy whatever they can, they have been stitched up like a kipper buy the most devious underhanded method ever!!!
    Dare I say the reason is because many Hearst fans were seeing the scheme for what it was and they needed to take drastic action, well, they certainly did this and mark my words everyone of they fans will lose every penny and still own save the club as even if they raise the full amount they still don't scratch the surface and with Romanov still in charge he will happily take the fools money and disappear over the horizon, the end is still very much coming but sadly the people who could do good wont have the financial support from the fans as Romanov and the current HEARTS regime have already ripped them off.

    And they both continue to plead their innocence. It's everyone's fault apart from their own don't you know?

    But we know it is their fault. They signed Stevenson when they knew the nick they were in. That's cheating IMHO, and they can't justifiably complain about it when they've not done all they can to sort themselves out.

    ... and by outbidding other SPL teams. Even if they survive they should be hammered for this.

    The question would have to be why would Vlad bail them out to the tune of £450k if they're facing a potential £4m hit shortly? You know the phrase 'throwing good money after bad'? Well, that's about as apt as you can get here to be honest.

    Romanov would be better doing nothing, and recouping what he can if they go bust. It makes no sense to keep them on life support if they're losing money at the rate that they are.

    According to todays Edinburgh Evening News BRIAN KENNEDY would consider stepping in to save Hearts and he has a reported £250 million fortune at his disposal. He is also reported to be a Hibs fan, if he was a real HIBBY he would plough some of that fortune in the club he supports. He can't be that much of a Hibs fan if he is considering saving Hearts. Unless this article is total C R A P as we see often in EEN.

    Also think MAD VLAD is at it again. It's all publicity, he will pay the money as per usual just before the deadline. Whenever there's as story such as this it always seems to fire the Hearts players up. All part of MAD VLAD'S game.

    I do hope though, that nobody saves them and they go right down the bog pan where they belong, YEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAA.

    Can they afford the team bus to Inverness? Maybe Citylinking has a group rate

    Just had a quick swatch round their ticketing site, still ~5000 seats available for the potentially historic St Mirren game.

    That's a few hundred more than Hearts had on their begging bowl club statement.

    Love it, sell more tickets than you have seats.

    I agree, any money he spends now just goes into the black hole. He's clearly going to take a hefty hit but he'll reduce that by just letting it go.

    He's steered a submarine round the Baltic so he'll know that

    Administration would suit them down to the ground, however I hope the winding up order served on them goes through and the prospect of liquidation looms

    They will wiggle out of this once again watch them. Always do. Our celebrations far too premature I fear

    They can't possibly have that many tickets still to SELL as according to our secret agents they've recently been handing out free tickets to all and sundry.

    Now that sounds like a really sensible marketing ploy in their hour of need.
