Wonder what they will do in the new year when Vlad decides it wasn't enough and shuts the place down as he can't do an Oliver and ask for more.
Hope they die soon, I really do.

Funny what you find by accident..
I was having a wee look at the Hearts website to see if there was any update on the wages front, and thought I'd have a wee click through on the UBIG banner to see what they were saying.
Now, I appreciate this clearly hasn't been updated for a couple of years (which is funny/tragic in itself -they don't even mention this years cup final which suggest show unimportant it really was to UBIG), but I was staggered by the sheer amount of lies in this article. And it is definitive proof of their claim to have 400,000 fans. This being so, a 0.8% take up on their share offer isn't that great really. Also, I wonder why the RREvolution website linked to doesn't exist anymore...
In 2005, UBIG became a shareholder in the Scottish football club Heart of Midlothian (generally called Hearts) and has been actively participating in its management since that time.
Established in 1874, Hearts is one of the oldest Scottish football clubs. Since then Hearts has won the Scottish League four times and has been runner-up on 14 other occasions. The club has won the Scottish Cup seven times—the last time in 2006. Hearts has also won the Scottish League Cup four times and is a regular participant in European tournaments. With more than 400,000 supporters, Hearts is among the twenty biggest clubs in the United Kingdom. In Scotland, Hearts is one of the clubs most supported by local fans.
Since 1886, Hearts has been playing its home football matches at Tynecastle Stadium, which is located in the central part of Edinburgh. In recent years, tickets for Hearts home matches in this stadium, which accommodates approximately 17,500 football fans, have been sold out early in advance of the season. For this reason, the reconstruction of Tynecastle Stadium, seeking to increase its capacity, rearrange its accesses, and increase the stadium infrastructure to satisfy the various needs of the spectators, is one of the main real estate projects currently being implemented by UBIG.
Hearts is one of only three Scottish clubs with its own football academy, where the most promising young talent is nurtured and later used to fortify the main composition of the team. Hearts also has its own trainings complex, which is one of the newest and most modern in the United Kingdom.
The success and rapid development of Hearts led to the following well-known international companies becoming supporters of the club: Ūkio bankas, Umbro, Coca Cola, Microsoft, MBNA, Marriott, and Nestle. RRevolution, a producer of elite sport clothing, dedicated its first collection of sport clothes to the Hearts club and its symbolism. www.rrevolution.co.uk

400,000 fans, geez they really are a big team. I mean it's not like they ever tell lies or have delusions of grandeur.

Riccarton was meant to be a joint project with Heriot Watt (it still is in a way). As part of the funding a grant was required from the Sports Council (Sportscotland) however, even then, Hearts finances were so dodgy that they weren't eligible for this - they weren't viewed as being stable enough to receive public funding. Heriot Watt went ahead and financed and built the whole thing themselves (with the help of the Sportscotland grant) and then set up a 25 year lease with the Merricks.

His shambolic nature is worse than Will Ferrall's character in Semi-Pro.

Does their share issue finish tomorrow? Suprised we have not had any last minute begging.
I imagine that come thursday morning they are going to have to make a statement regarding how they are going to complete the season.

This is massive news if the basketball side is ****ed too.
Hearts are in deeper **** than I thought and it seems Romanov cannae bail them out and moreover he will need cash as soon as possible.
How long until the bank call in the debt? Can't be long surely?

A couple of weeks ago, we started a project called “Mes su Žalgiriu" [editor - "We are with Žalgiris"], which is open to everyone wanting to help the famous club. All they need to do is to transfer the money to the club’s account in Ūkio Bankas.
Aye right then !!!!!!!!
