I would put it more as an opening of hostilities by this consortium. The article implicitly warns fans against buying shares and drops heavy hints about the evils of Mr Romanov's regime. It insults him then goes on to plead with him to hand over the club debt-free - brilliant.

I notice Save Our Hearts is bigged up in the article and then HoMFC issue this statement - http://www.heartsfc.co.uk/articles/2...241384_2979119.

Coincidence?

Anyone else find it weird that they refer to themselves in the third person?

He should be donating to Portsmouth since he helped to ruin them in the first place.

Looks like one rich fan is trying to save them, from todays Scotsman

A CONSORTIUM vying to buy Hearts and usher in a new era of fan ownership has submitted a takeover bid to majority shareholder Vladimir Romanov, the Evening News can reveal.

The Lithuanian multi-millionaire is understood to be mulling over the deal that would see businessmen and supporters groups spearhead a new fan-led regime at the 
Gorgie club.

Capital insurance chief Alex Mackie, 58, is believed to one of the key figures behind the offer which comes days after Hearts received a £450,000 winding up order for unpaid PAYE and VAT, sparking a huge fundraising drive to stave off the threat of liquidation.

Mr Mackie, right, is listed as a company secretary at three city firms and is understood to have been an outspoken critic at several club AGMs.
He is said to be “fervent” Hearts fan who mixes in social circles with “significant resources”.

A source revealed Mr Mackie is blessed with “a brilliant business brain” and has the “clout” required to push a deal through. They added: “He’s a dyed-in-the-wool Hearts man and he cares passionately about the club.”

Mr Mackie, a company director with Edinburgh Risk Management Ltd since 2003 who lives in North Berwick, declined to comment.

But he belongs to a syndicate called Foundation of Hearts Ltd that was registered with Companies House in late 2010 and is based at Melville Street in the New Town.

They don't have a dedicated Scottish football writer any more. Murray's main job with them now is as their golf writer.

Is that the same Ewan Murray that does Sky sports golf?

They were always going to get a new owner so I don't think this scoop really changes that much does it?

They're still relying on Vlad righting off millions or a new guy paying off millions and I don't get the impression from that article they'll have millions.

Imo if this consortium are successful it'll be on the back of liquidation and forming a new company that starts again in the third division.

"For that reason, we would urged supporters to please think twice before parting with their hard-earned money. We would reiterate that the current Share Offer, the recently set up Donation Line - 0131 200 7280 - and buying tickets for upcoming matches at Tynecastle are the best ways to guarantee that the money handed over will go towards club activities."

That's just not true and they know it's not true. To make such a false and misleading statement in connection with a public offering of shares is a criminal offence under the Financial Services Act.

[Stevie Reid]

So yet again, even after all this, this consortium just expects to not have to deal with their debts?

**** off.

What a load of wind and pish. How many consortia of local business men are there that apparently support hearts? Whenever I see them they look like a motley assortment of Neanderthal bloaters with Eddie large perms and mullets, Adidas sambas, pie stained hearts tops stretched over beer guts and union jacks draped across their shoulders.
Yet the media would like to have us believe that their fan base is made up of budding Peter jones's.

Windae lickers the lot of them.

Anyone who doesn't think Rangers have 'got away' with massive debt and tax avoidance need only visit Ibrox at a home game, visit a small creditors meeting, a ticketus board meeting or speak to HMRC.

So some owner lost his business, so what. Exactly how out of pocket is Whyte? The new company bull**** merely points out how ridiculous administration law is and how corrupt the financial world is. Phoenix companies, what a crock of immoral, cheating pish.

Rangers is dead. That its customers are kidding themselves on they're happy with another business is neither here nor there. Football clubs are admittedly rather unique in the way their customers identify with the business but the new Huns aren't a phoenix* because the ownership is not the same.

I'm convinced, this guy can easily pull together the money needed..... No need to worry about Hearts now....

It sounds remarkably like the publicity "billionaire" Craig Whyte received with the infamous "off the radar" wealth that he had....

Edinburgh Risk Management, Oh deary me ! I've insured a couple of development projects with them in the past. They were Ok at what they did but definately small fry.
I have pulled down a copy of their latest accounts from Companies House and see it is a small cap company,shareholders funds - £203,132.00, The company is owned by a holding company which owns 100% of the shares in Edin. Risk and owned by a J M J Barry.

The great saviour, Mr Mackie is just an employee of a tiny little insurance brokers. If he drives a Rover it will be second - hand.
