    Does he not read the newspapers? Well except for the EEN where #Allisbarry.
    Pure PR spin to sell Season tickets and 'Membership Schemes' to the puddle drinkers.

    If Hearts sign nobody and cut their wage budget to a realistic level, the vast ranks of the deluded will keep their cash in their pockets. Signing Wilson / Boyd / Skackel will have them 'believing' again and flocking to empty what's left of their bank accounts into Fedotovas', er, the club's back pocket.

    Both options result in their death, but the signing a few 'exciting' names route will see a lot more cash flow into their coffers before the plates stop spinning. It's no loss for the players as long as they get their signing on fee upfront and most of their wages before things do go pop, they'll pack up and move somewhere else.

    From the headlines I assume he has already signed a contract of sorts but obviously can't be registered with the SFA until the transfer window opens. Where would that leave him when they go pop?

    If they went pop, the contract would be void, but.........

    If they messed up a little, and got another player registration ban, could they still have to pay him without being able to play him.

    I also think that the Hearts are the last bit of Vlads empire that might be generating cash, don't forget that young Romanov is still chairman ! and the rest of the board are from Lithuania where salaries are nowhere near as well paid as here so it's a nice wee earner while it lasts.

    Is there any word on these much sought after shares ( the ones that were going towards their "state of the art" wholly owned revered youth academy )

    Have they been sent out to the piggy bank dippers yet

    I got it a bit mixed up. Was a while ago now.anyway i suspect the yams will add all the signings they can in the next couple of weeks. Sure sign they know a transfer embargo is on its way.

    I've just been on Keechback, checking out the Hertz' fans take on all this. Amazingly, they appear to believe a fans takeover is done and dusted and are now debating the in and outs of said deal!! There is no mention of asstes being "frozen", hence an inability to conclude such a deal at present. Discussion of financial difficulties for the club is non-existant. Increasingly, indeed, they are slagging each other on a personal level.

    There are lots of reasons to criticise Hearts fans, but I have to concede that they have plenty of justification for engaging in this course of action.

    They have finally caught up with the rest of us fans of other clubs then, the rest of us have been slagging them of for years, definitely amongst the most reviled clubs and fans in the country. Wonder why?

    They have brought it on themselves, arrogance and delusion since mad Vlad took over and even hardened OF supporting acquaintances of mine have asked me the same question "who the **** do they think they are?".

    It's easy (and good) to have lots of confidence in your team but they seem to think because they have won the SC a few teams they are on par with Barca, Real, Man Utd etc when in actual fact they are....well nothing.

    Not long now....

    They've given me a fair bit of fun over the last few years, but I'm looking forward to a dramatic and exciting close-season from them. Lots of scrambling around, gnashing of teeth and figure-pointing.

    They are resigned to losing 15 points either before the start of next season or during it. The PBS is going to be sold going by the various comments, including the one lifted from BrokeBack 2/3 days ago and posted on here. Cav Green has been predicting something along those lines for months. We'll just need to be patient. #Allisbarry

    Bloody hell, can't they just borrow it from themselves and stumble towards the cliff edge regardless ? All big teams do it.

    There never was a council plan to build a stadium for Hearts except in the deluded brains of some Yams (and a few paranoid ones on here). There is currently Meadowbank stadium. The council would like to sell the land and build a like-for-like replacement at Sighthill with 7-10,000 capacity and a running track. That will have to wait until land prices increase sufficiently to make the thing work financially. It could be a long wait!

    I suspect that the City Council would rent Meadowbank to the Yams in the meantime, assuming it can get a safety certificate for 450,000 supporters.

    The council should bend over backwards to help the yams. The amount of revenue brought into the city because of the yams would pay for the entire tram project.

    400,000 Yams regularly saturating Edinburgh on Champions League night, staying at the Tynie hotel before watching world cup players being managed by a top name manager. The council just couldn't survive without them.
