    As I said earlier, yes we despise hearts and want to see them suffer but it's also about justice and fairness. Hearts have cheated and lived beyond their means for years to get ahead whilst the rest of us have had to cut back and live within our means and not been splashing out ridiculous, unaffordable sums of money on players. Therefore, it is only fair that hearts are punished for this cheating, if they are not then what kind of message does it send out?! Aye just break the bank, don't pay what your due etc etc because it's ok nothing will happen to you!

    If I had Twitter I'd be telling him how I think it's terrible that teams cheat and spend out with their means while other teams around struggle and play by the rules.

    He's completely missing the point though. Of course it's horrible. Except when it's Rangers and Hearts.

    Then it's ****ing hilarious.

    I wouldn't feel sorry for any playing staff at hearts, maybe a wee bit sympathy for admin/office staff but at the end of the day they would of all known about the shambles they were joining when they signed up.

    Allisbarry should remember that this isn't an injustice, it's not a sign of the demise of Scottish Football, it's not Scottish Footballing armageddon, it's justice.

    If Hearts do go bust this season we're going to have to put up with headlines about how Scottish Football is in crisis what with Oldco last season and Jevco this season. It's nothing of the sort, it's Scottish football sorting itself out. Whilst clubs like ICT, Ross County and St Johnstone are living within their means and riding high in the SPL, the teams who tried to spend money they don't have in the chase of perceived success have found out that what goes up must come down.

    This seasons SPL has been one of the most competitive in years. With one team who spent well beyond their means starting over in division three this season and the other financially impotent we've seen a clean, fair battle for European places and seen some great football and quality young players as a result. St Mirren won the league cup and they deserved it, it's a meaningful victory for them as they've put up with years of pain for that one opportunity to get a great result as opposed to looking for quick fixes and showing a lack of patience.

    The reason why other SPL clubs should be entitled to laugh should we see Hearts go into admin is because it's not a case of 'we didn't see it coming', they've had countless opportunities to do something about it. Alarm bells rang in the winter of last year yet they failed to significantly cut costs and indeed also signed Craig Beattie. They've paid astronomical wages for the likes of Nade, Skacel, Oboua and so forth whilst racking up mountains of debt which has hardly been kept a secret. It's like a car crash in slow motion where they can see themselves headed for an impact yet do nothing to avoid it whatsoever.

    Allisbarry can keep quiet, there are plenty of teams who have lost to a team of players that were way beyond the price range of the team who played them. Nobody is shedding a tear for them, and they in return won't shed a tear if Hearts do indeed go into admin.

    The reference to Hearts admitting that admin is a possibility will disappear shortly

    A year ago we were battling to save our club from relegation.

    Twelve months on if Hearts go into admin we have two chances to relegate them.

    If Carlsberg did progress...
    We've not made that much progress and it certainly shouldnae be measured against that basket case of a club!

    Hearts as a club are not giving much away but by the looks of the statement they released on their site earlier in response to the allegations, it certainly would seem they are a lot more shady and far less outraged and angry than they were when similar rumours were spread by STV months ago when they even threatened legal action. It defiantly suggests that the rumours are not too far away from the mark but as usual hearts don't want to say too much and want their fans to keep believing the party line that everything is going just fine.

    Edinburgh Facts ‏@edinburghfacts 24m

    Hibs have met with Council to map out open-top bus route. Date still to be confirmed. Could be this Friday if Hearts go into administration.

    I think you are pretty much spot on. I cannot remember them responding to any other twitter rumours or newspaper articles without quotes.
    The article in the EEN is very surprising as I doubt very much they would print anything without strong proof.

    The statement on the yams website is typically what any club does when they are about to go tits up. Most recent was Dunfermline, denied several times then BOOM, administration.

    I think some people are getting a bit ahead of themselves all the same, the yams will continue to exist and to be honest I would rather they were around in some shape or form. Relegation is still too good for those cants and their deluded muppet fans so a Sevco type scenario is my favoured option.

    The EEN article is almost entirely lifted from the Sun article this morning. That includes the mistakes (17 points) and the (probably ill-informed) speculation about the debt.

    “@scotsunsport: Hearts have told fans that the club is doing everything possible to trade normally as fresh concerns surfaced over their financial future.”

    Statements coming out just don't sound as fim and defiant as previously. They have a hint of resignation about them.

    You both know it was Barry Anderson who wrote the article right? If his sandwich went missing at lunchtime he wouldn't bother looking in to it, he would wait until someone else figured it out and then repeat whatever they said. He's a glorified blogger. If he told me it was wednesday tomorrow I'd still check my calendar to make sure.

    Not doubting that for one minute however to put it on the front of the paper is pretty sensational don't you think?

    Surely the EEN run the risk of being banned from Tynecastle in the same way STV were threatened before if it's a load of Jimmy White? I think BA has been very careful in what he has said in the past in order to keep on the right side of the heirarchy at the Wongadome, not so this time?

    The EEN front page is a great big broken Hearts crest.

    that's what struck me too, especially the bit in their statement that reads 'The club will continue to do everything within its power to trade normally' that implies that circumstances outwith their control are about to pull the plug. Certainly the fate of the club is not in the clubs hands. shame for them really.

    Actually, given that the debt seems to have been reduced from the previous accounts, Hearts are perhaps happy at being shown in such a good light.

    Read this cracker...

    Everything on this thread is reporting doom and gloom, and guesswork about our demise. However there is also the flip side which I don;t think has been considered yet, and that is it IS POSSIBLE we could come out of this smelling of roses. Debt free, untouched, and with new owners.

    WTF???? Is he for real?
