    I heard any money they get for players will be spent solely on Hibernian Lotto tickets!
    Fixed that for you :)

    Interesting link about salaries paid in the sporting world. Celtic are at 169 on the list and Rangers, Hearts and Hibs are at 199,223 and 230 respectively. Worth noting the difference between Hearts and Hibs (and remember this is the average wage)

    http://www.sportingintelligence.com/...llenge-110601/
    And this is after Hearts have made huge reductions in their wage bill. I think the figures from previous years would have highlighted the enormous underachievement at Hearts. £60m from Romanov + the £25m they already borrowed + however many £m of actual income. No one found it easy watching them win Scottish Cups, but I think we can feel pretty happy that that's all it was. The amount of money they've spent they should really have been aiming to win the domestic, if not Europa, League.

    My part in the Hearts downfall

    I have never knowingly given Hearts a penny since Mercer tried to put us to Death - used to go to all the games at Tynecastle until then but no more after that feel vindicated now

    Their statement this morning was an act of desperation. As even the Yambos understand. Southern is trying to shut the door long after the submarine has left the dock, torn itself open on a hidden rock, and is now listing on its side filling with water.

    I stopped at the female Swedish fans - no like Hearts fans to get their geography all wrong, although the choice of image makes the mistake entirely justified

    I said to a yam relative this morning "so who are you going to support now that you your team are nearly gone"

    Reply " maybe Dalkeith Thistle or Bonnyrigg Rose..... They'll be around a bit longer than hearts.

    Made me laugh

    So, so pleasing to have been there for the last ever game at Tynecastle.

    Love this one, they are having a bad day.

    Heard a rumor coming from someone with Lothian fire brigade that our main stand only just passed last seasons test and hearts were told it was unlikely to pass again unless hugely revamped

    Anybody else heard similar?

    Would be poetic justice if the last goal to ever be scored at that dump was a last minute winner from us.

    This is a great thread, they started out thinking it was a Hibee wind up and slowly convinced themselves it's true,

    I have never had so much entertainment fi that site before


    Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

    Just been over there for a browse, the guy that started a raise money thread by playing gigs ( as he is a musician) and selling all his prized memorabilia to give it all to his club. Noble effort but what a waste if time

    Much as I find wee Sandy amusing, I think he should be punted. I think he's shaun_lawson in disguise. Better getting rid now. He'll eventually bite somebody, and you never know what sort of germs he's carrying.

    Sandy, as already pointed out, Hibs pay the players registered to play for them, whatever the terms may be under which they've been signed. Hibs pay their tax-bill when it comes due, not when HMRC finally manage to pin them into a corner with threats of closure. Hibs have financed the construction of a modern, properly-equipped training ground, have entirely rebuilt their stadium, and are one of the very small number of SPL clubs who have reduced their debt over the past decade.

    Hibs know where the owner is. We know where the chairman is. The police aren't seeking to interview either of them about money that seems to have 'gone missing' from the club's bank-accounts. Hibs' accounts are published on time, year by year, and year by year the club AGM gets to examine them, ask questions about them, and then votes to approve them. This is known as legal good practice.

    NONE of the above is true of Hearts right now. None of that's been true of Hearts for a very long time now. Hearts have signed players knowing full well that they didn't have the money or the intention of paying them what they had been promised. Hearts have entered into contracts with other firms for services they had neither the intention or the ability to pay for. They have repeatedly failed to pay players' salaries on time; your stadium grows shabbier and more run-down by the week; the only reason you haven't been wound up already is so that you can continue to scrape together enough cash to pay off a little of the interest on your massive debts - debts that you have no hope of paying off. All you're paying right now is a proportion of the administrators' fees. YOUR debt is the one that's growing by the day.

    Ten years ago, in 2003, PricewaterhouseCoopers stated that Hearts and four other SPL clubs were technically insolvent. Livingston and Dundee went into administration. Last I looked, they were in the First Division. Dunfermline sorted themselves out by stringent cost-cutting; unfortunately for them, they've slid back into deep trouble again. They're now in the Second Division. Hearts are right now technically insolvent and at the mercy of the administrators managing the UBIG/Ukio mess. Are you beginning to see a pattern here, Sandy?

    Now take a guess who the other team was?

    Yup. Hibs.

    Since 2003 Hibs have balanced their books, completed the rebuilding of their stadium, built East Mains, paid all debts when they came due and honoured all salaries and contracts. AND maintained their SPL status.


    Away you go and play.

    And maybe this evening you'd like to look up "Ponzi scheme" on Wikipedia. (Mum'll show you how to do it if you can't manage yourself.) That'll explain how Vlad's been running your club for the past 8 years.

    They seem to be doing all their (in)fighting on the Brokeback site, instead of being at Tincastle... Making a noise, and getting answers?...

    However.... GGTTH....

    That is probably the best yet.

    Some Norwegian guy in a mobility shop.

    Even the gullible roasters on there don't seem totally convinced.
