    Far from knowledgeable in this area, isn't it also to do with where proceedings are opened?
    I'm looking at this EU reg 1346/2000, is it relevant and have I got the wrong end of the stick?


    Even if they had time, could they afford the legal team....
    EU regulations mean proceedings must take place in country where company does majority of its business.

    From my source:

    As of today consensus is Liquidation is the only way forward as current bids are still nowhere near what is needed so unless one of them increases it significantly Hearts will "be split up and sold for scrap". Expect the process to be started as early as next week as BDO want it started before the season starts (I've heard separately they've been warned by the SPL)
    You missed the last bit.............

    Fair enough, so I've misinterpreted article 4 as to the applicable law?
    As I said, on a learning curve for me.

    Leaving aside the insolvency law, if we're talking about the sale of the assets, I still think that UK law (Scots Law, indeed) would prevail, no?

    Steady now, see the posts above, I'm the one asking the questions mainly through ignorance.
    If I have looked at the right EU regs then I think it defines that in article 4.2.(i.) which would be as you say.

    Stands back for slap down.

    The men in grey suits from both countries will argue their case and this will drag on for some time (time that our pour friends over-by simply don't have).

    This could run-and-run for the foreseeable and there won't be any quick 'get-out' for them. They're either in admin for the long-haul or they're liquidated.

    I don't see a middle ground for negotiation.

    I could be wrong - but I'll back myself with my own cash.

    I know that I have long said that this would be a relatively quick administration, and it has been thus far. However, I'm wavering now.

    If, as I'm starting to think, the SPFL demand a guarantee about the fixtures, it will end soon. That would back up what Bajillions is hearing. If they don't.... yeah, I'm with you on the long-haul theory.

    It won't last for ever, of course.

    Birch has said that they have enough to last until Christmas. That would give them time to buy some new ovens, or to try to generate some alternative funding.

    Could BDO cancel ST sales (two acronyms in there already) and ask for cash payments at the turnstile to see them by?

    Makes me wonder what BDO and Zebra have agreed with the CC scheme. That doesn't sit right, unless Zebra are holding back the monies and drip-dripping it to them.

    Either way - things are grim and I'm starting to sway towards the comical farce that will see them start on -15 points.

    And if it all goes pear shaped the ovens will still have a use ;)

    Jambos. This demands an immediate bake-sale, maybe even a facepainting/bouncy castle fun day. C'Mon, I know you have one last effort in you before the end.

    I'm not sure that one set of laws would 'trump' the other here as there is no direct conflict. UK/Scots Law is passive on the subject - i.e. it doesn't prevent sale of the assets but it doesn't force it either - but if EU/Lith Law is capable of preventing it the Brit version is in no position to dispute that.

    It's a bit like the SPL and SFA each imposing a signing embargo over a club. The SPL might lift their ban, but the club still can't sign players because of the SFA rule.

    I'm not sure the EU/Lith laws would extend that far though.

    Under EU regulations the law of the country where the company does the majority of its business prevails.

    But what I'm saying is there's no actual conflict between the two regimes so prevalence needn't apply.

    In my SPL/SFA analogy the SPL (after they've lifted their ban) don't disallow the signing of players but neither can they force it through in defiance of the SFA ruling. I think it might be similar with these circumstances - UK Commercial Law doesn't prevent the sale of assets, but International Criminal Law might. UK Commercial Law doesn't prevent me from driving my car at 100mph either - that doesn't mean I'm allowed to do it.

    Their end is nigh.

    We need to start preparing ourselves.























    For the party!!!!!!!!

    I suggest the car park behind the West, with behind the East as an overflow.

    We need volunteers for the following jobs;

    We need a bake sale, stuff like victorious sandwich should go down well. Any other suggestions?

    We could have face painting stalls for the kids.

    Does anyone have a contact that might donate a lend o a bouncy castle?

    Folk could donate stuff for raffles. Maybe get the players would be up for going for a meal?

    Get the players to pose for to have their pictures taken at £5 a pop. Can someone get a lifesize cardboard cut out of Sparky?

    Talking about Sparky. You know them big foam pointy fingers? Does anyone have a contact that could do big foam thumbs?

    Maybe someone with the required skills could make some home brew champagne. If we don't have time to brew this up we can just put some white wine through a sodastream.

    We could sell tickets for a coach trip somewhere but not bother to book a coach - we don't have to tell anyone we've not booked a coach until its too late for them to do anything else!

    We could charge an entry fee. I suggest either a bowl of jelly or a tub of ice cream which we can then sell on for cash.

    Any other ideas guys and gals?

    Oh, the Hibs are having a party
    The Hibs are having a party

    It will be UK law that prevails but nothing can be sold/agreed upon without the say so of Ukio Bankas and UBIG or their administrators as the are the major creditors and shareholders.

    So.....
    Should no one want to buy our neighbours, or manage to put together an adequate bid, what happens next? Would BDO have to advise moving to liquidation at that stage? Or would they manage their affairs until the money runs out / someone with more money than sense eventually feels sorry for them / the Liths decide they want to cash in their securities? This is assuming that the football authorities don't force the issue in some way or other before then.
