    Sorry if this has already been mentioned, but I looking over at JKB and noticed a post from a new organisation - 1874 Fighting Fund [Ed - who they?]. It's along similar lines to the Foundation of Hearts ruse, where their looking for pledges with little or no agenda.

    I know that that lot are a gullible bunch, but surely having different fans groups championing for cash simply dilutes what could be raised if they acted as one.

    24 hours before their club could face oblivion/extinction, reality looks to have finally dawned and between both groups they haven't raised a penny in hard cash.

    They honestly never thought the day would come.

    F....ck off! We're the Fund Fighting for 1874, we despise the 1874 Fighting Fund (all spit) and everything they stand for.

    Just loving the way that they are acting in such an officious, Yammish, way. Committees, titles, office bearers, and no doubt blazers and smart ties.

    They are a bumptious bunch of lickspittle nonentities, whose arrogance and belief in a system that put them near the top of the pile, has brought them to the edge of oblivion.

    There is a fourth Bajillions and in my view most likely. A postponement of decision to gather more info to give themselves some thinking time and possibly hope the Lith situation reveals itself with unopposable clarity.
    Good point well made

    Logic legality and morality should make their demise inevitable but my cynical side forces me to expect that some way will be found to let them escape relatively unharmed. The major hopeful aspect is that having eventually being forced into dealing with Sevco is it likely they will be prepared to anger them again by dealing more favourably with their little cousins?

    Garbage! We are the REAL fans representatives the FiveOne Fund not to be confused with the OneFive Fund. We are a splinter group from the 1902 Fighting Fund.

    Just watched their highlights from yesterday on the BBC web site. A good preview to next season?

    Not to be confused with the People's Front of Funding. Which does not accept funding from people, only the acceptance of money from the people it expects are the most gullible to part with it.

    Mary Portis, the ghost of John Harvey-Jones and some schemie named Shuggy are apparently troubleshooting through the issues of the Jambo cling-ons and will "strategise" in advance of tomorrows news. In lieu of and good news they all agreed that they wouldn't be in this mess if it wasn't for them pesky Hibees. They each take a ceremonial dart to throw at pictures of Griffiths, Sergey and Mikey. All of them miss apart from Mary who spears the unfortunate Shuggy... Meeting suspended whilst Shuggy is carted off to ERI.

    A very admirable cause and hope it is a successful one. However, having already made several pledges to other Yam funds, I am unable to contribute to this too. Therefore, I have to admit, I am not giving a S.H.I.T. and whatever happens, happens.

    Jimbo obviously a visionary man - penned this for the Jambo cling-ons...

    Well, I woke up this morning, I got myself a beer
    Well, I woke up this morning, and I got myself a beer
    The future's uncertain, and the end is always near

    All tracks to be digitally remastered and re-released in a compilation "Jambos in a Storm - my life as a closet Yam"

    I think I am actually of the opinion that the ubig insolvency is a step too far removed from hearts to warrant the points deduction. However, the spl must be aware that it's in the post for hearts and I wonder if it is this that will inform their decision. Hearts are a dead man walking and must be likely to keel over next season if not the summer so getting rid of them now saves the spl from utter chaos.

    I was talking to a Yam today who made this very case, saying "I don't think the SPL will want to punish us twice" I explained to them if they get relegated then they fall outside of the SPL's jurisdiction and won't be their problem for at least a year (which Hearts would be unlikely to last through)

    Other trains of thought are that Hearts are actually more likely to survive if they get dropped to D1 because they won't be spending as much.

    Personally, I'm hoping that the SPL choose to make an example out of Hearts who they know are going to go bust anyway simultaneously sending a message to the whole of scottish football - "Your overspending/financial mismanagement/ parent company jiggery pokery will not be tolerated"

    I disagree. No chance whatsoever that this will be the only punishment. It has to be a points deduction, or else the SPL had better be ready for fireworks from Dundee and the rangers
    I have no faith in the SPL doing the right thing. Useless incompetent organisation.

    Punish the cheating Yam fuds ffs!

    500 pages of this. Hibs.net has excelled as the leading authority on the insane past decade or so at Hearts, but my only regret is that this very thread didn't begin the day Romanov turned up. After all we all predicted things ending up this way, even back then...

    Edit: darn, not quite 500 pages yet.
