    Where is it going to stop? Hearts are not content with doing the Yam kids out of their Christmas presents (adults have spent all the festive money on shares and cake mix instead of bikes and dolls) but now they are stooping as low as getting their dinner money as well by going around the schools and demanding £1 to have their photo with the big cup. Piggy banks will be next. Time to call Esther Rantzen.

    The RIP fund raising group seem to be aware of their clubs impending demise.

    £3,700 is not to be sniffed at. All they need to do is have 11 fun days per day for the next 4 weeks and they will raise the other £1.2 million they desperately need from the share issue.

    Superb. And the irony is - all it would do is help them survive with assumption big tax case goes away AND they offload high earners in January!!!

    It seems there is no Big Tax Case for the Hearts anymore. First day of the Tribunal last week their Council said hearts were not going to contest the £ 1.7 million assessment and have now arranged another meeting to discuss the interest and penalties aspects of the case.

    This info does not seem to have hit the wires yet, but it came from someone who works at the Tax Tribunal Offices in George Street and I have absolutely no reason to doubt the story.

    All the more reason to think Vlad will pull the plug as soon as the kiddies piggy banks are empty and the dinner money spent.

    if true, it's remarkable this hasn't gone public!

    I know, but I dare say Hearts were not going to announce it and the HMRC won't say anything until their full sum due is agreed,by which time Hearts will be toast.

    I will try phoning the FTT offices tomorrow for some kind of confirmation.

    If true then they are at the end of the road. My rough calculation suggests they should owe £3m minimum if you include interest and penalties.

    How many bake sales and tombola's do they need to pay for that?!?!?

    After screwing the fans and their kids of all their cash, I believe that they now want the kids selection boxes donated so they can do a tombola!!! Some very generous parent even donated a top prize of 24 cans of Skol.

    Can one of the Photoshop experts on here do a Vlad dressed as Santa climbing down the chimney and stealing the kids Christmas presents.

    Maybe even have McGlynn as Rudolph.

    Cheers.

    The "Big" club still have over 1700 tickets left for Wednesday v Celtic. Looks like they can't find 388,000 of their fans (bearing in mind Celtic will get a whole stand to themselves.)

    So much for them all coming out in droves to save their club they obviously couldn't give a friars tuck.

    Well I see that people are still joking away in this thread.

    But is anything actually happening? Or is it the usual nonsense, with nothing actually ever happening to them?

    Only reason I can think of for Hearts doing this is if HMRC made it a condition of the time extension they got a couple of weeks back. Is this likely?

    Does the figure of £1.7million not include penalties and interest already?

    Sorry should have been clear - my £3m estimate is the £1.7m bill plus interest and penalties. Therefore they would have overall black hole of £5m, £600k of which they have raised through share thing and bake sales.

    Does "not contesting" mean that they intend to pay it?

    Maybe. Maybe that they did not have money to pay their lawyers. It's hard to work out their game plan. I'm not even sure they have one.

    Come on, this is hearts we're talking about. "Not contesting" more than likely means they can't afford to pay the legal fees involved with contesting. Fwiw I'll be waiting to see something a bit more reliable than a rumour on an Internet forum before I believe this latest twist, no disrespect to the person who posted it though.

    If they are not appealing the tax then for me there is no doubt administration / liquidation is their plan.
    Stupid muppets have just gave Romanov all their Xmas money too!!

    True enough, but I've decided to believe it anyway as it's putting a smile on my face on a Monday morning.
