Relegation this season would probably have been a good thing for them as well. As it stands they are facing playing the 13/14 season with a threadbare team and ongoing cash flow problems plus a 15 point penalty when the insolvency of UBIG is confirmed and the very real possibility of losing thier stadium when ukios administrators come calling. If they manage to survive all of that then relegation next season means they are coming up against rangers the year after so no guarantee of going straight back up. It's going to be fun to watch

For the bed wetters who want this thread closed down today's decision means hee haw. Bottom line is they are still rooked and staring into the abyss. The big pain is coming and I will laugh my genitals off when it happens.

Some of the posts about closing the thread. Deary me. Did I miss the SPL ratifying a £25m cash injection for the yams ? Admin and oblivion are coming ! Its just been postponed. It'll be a farewell tour next season and one that may get called off halfway through due to poor ticket sales.

I'm guessing someone can make an offer for the stadium and small amount on the debt. If accepted I assume that they could start next season with a clean slate and on zero points.
Can the Admins and soon to be ubig accept a tiny offer for the debt to save the hassle of putting hearts in admin, and then go through months of legal proceedings?

No points deduction, but it never would have made news if they werent such a shoddily run little club. With their crumbling stadium, unpaid players and shady Russian sugardaddy they are absolutely not going to get any stronger. I'm almost certain there will be sad, fat, ugly jambos on kickback saying how the club is destined to come through this and re-establish themselves on the top of the footballing Olympus where they belong. TBH what would you say if this was happening at Hibs? Them not going down does mean there will be some games next season to look forward too, i have no passionate hate for Celtic (until next sunday) so i'm glad we'll have derbies to attend. Given the manner in which we absolutely pumped them on their own patch the other week i'd say derbies are going to be a lot more entertaining too. Hearts in the first division would have been hilarious don't get me wrong, but Hearts treading water in the SPL and getting roundly shafted by Hibs on a regular basis... thats just dandy

Random point:
If Hearts had finished 18+ points ahead of Dundee, everyone here would be delighted with this ruling.

He's actually not got his eye on the ball.
The SPL rules as per December 2011 are as he says. The line about "notice of intention to appoint" was added to the rules as per July 2012. So he's out of date.
I'm presuming the fact the intention was lodged with a govt dept rather than a court is what's got them off.
As you say, just a stay of excution.

This story is faaaaar from over people.
We've waited all these years to get to this stage, just a few more weeks or months and Karma will work it's magic... And anyway we can now turn our attention to Sunday !

Can anyone say they are really surprised at this? Said it last week that nothing would happen.
The pain is in the post for them, though. This just prolongs it.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)

Todays decision is only delaying the end. Also the SPL have now given themselves another summer of misery, because when the courts in Lith land do accept they are insolvent, they will then have a team in THEIR top division relegated before the season starts. They couldn't run a raffle with only 2 tickets to sell.

Are they certain to even get a points deduction next season?
Or will that be another decision "bottled"?

All hail Stewart Gilmour: an 8-8-8 with points for the middle 8 wiped would've come in most handy for a team of diddies starting on -15.

I would've loved hearts to go down this season as with all the losing stadium, players chat etc, wouldn't it have been good for them to be relegated 2 years in a row and bypass playing the huns in div 1 in 2 seasons time and instead be in Div 2 by then?!

i tried to read it one day, got about 14 posts in on the first page and was bored to tears. if i had the time which i dont i could trawl through the entire thing and come up with a few belting quotes from folks that claim to be in the "know"
being honest its one of the biggest weeks in our clubs history and all folk are banging on about is hearts. give it up and get behind your own team.
i couldnt give a toss what happens to them.

Relegation for the flumps next season only to be met by Newco Huns. Now that would be worth waiting for.

Hearts didn't single handedly defeat the Nazi's for people like you to make decisions about what we do and don't talk about.

For those seething with outrage that they apparently haven't been punished, please arm yourself with the facts before bursting any more blood vessels.
Until a court appoints an administrator. The parent company UBIG are not as yet in administration.
Administration and likely liquidation WILL follow soon, it's now just a formality.
The liquidators will want something for the 79% of Hearts shares owned by UBIG.
Also the stadium is in serious danger, not to mention the tens of millions in debt owed to UBIG which the liquidators are hardly going to walk away from.
Today alters nothing. They're ****ed.
