    Heart of Midlothian F.C. 1874 - 2013...........embarrassed by nothing, offended by everything.

    The original HMFC was founded in 1874 and incorporated in 1903 about a month earlier than Hibs. That 1874 incarnation, however, folded in March 1905 and started as a Newco in April 1905. If you recall the Rangers fiasco in that, in Scots Law, the corporate entity is inseperable from the club then this incarnation of the Yams is the original Sevco. The yams proudly claim titles won in 1895 1897 and Cups won in 1894,1899 and 1904 (yes, they went bust a year after winning a Scottish Cup, spooky or what?) whilst claiming Sevco are a new start with no history.


    *Yes we folded in 1891 but we were not an incorporated body at the time so we were able to pick up where we left off.

    From the charities perspective, they simply got back what they were owed. From the clubs perspective, absolutely shameful relying on a fan to pay off this figure, while they splash thousands out on players they can't afford.

    Agreed, but giving the guy that paid it abuse?

    I don't think anybody is giving the fan any abuse. Certainly not on here anyway.

    Just managed to read the BDO release, only a few pages in and there are mistakes already, they are referring to the FSA, that changed to the FCA in April, pedantic I know but would expect them to know something like that for a kick off
    A much bigger mistake is the share capital. They're showing it as 146m shares of £1 each =£146m. It's actually 146m shares of 10p each = £14.6m.

    You can't get the staff these days.

    There's a glaring error in that document. In fact, it's an absolute stonker.

    How much are BDO helping themselves to in fees?

    Well for all we know that could be £1.89, £18.90, £1890.00, or anywhere the decimal point decides to fall. That seems to be how they work things out.

    Page 9, para 11.

    "we do not intend to draw a fee until it has been agreed with the secured creditor"

    should read "we do not intend to draw a fee until we can get our calculator working."

    They're promising not to help themselves to the "ring-fenced" £48k raised in bake sales for their fees unless it's absolutely necessary for them to do so.

    The boy with the Duff Beer looks like Daniel Sloss' big brother (if he has one).
    Actually looks frighteningly like my namesake's big brother.

    The article in the Herald has the BDO fees so far as £227,000



    This is an interesting quote from the article:

    "The Lady Haig Poppy Factory in Edinburgh is owed £185. A spokeswoman stressed this was not a public donation that had not been handed over but an unpaid purchase from the factory, most likely to be a wreath."



    Now, call me suspicious but wouldn't it be ironic if they bought this wreath for The Hearts War Memorial and it had never been paid for. Especially considering how much they've played up to this in recent years

    I think they're trying to drive up the price of Holt to cover their fees. Didn't CWG say that

    Just have to say - well done CWG for breaking this story and in doing so showing the mainstream media how they should be doing their jobs. See them all jump on it now, mind. They'd be none the wiser if it weren't for our resident .net experts.

    It seems that the McCrae Battalion Trust have settled this, meaning MBT are out their own money and this amount too.

    Maybe one of the mouthpiece's who repeatedly told us that Hearts were self sufficient should square them up. David Southern would be a good place to start seeing as he had the power to pay them while he was in charge.

    Good old Herald. Never one to let the truth stand in the way of a good headline. (sorry, I've had dealings with them in another part of my life).

    Their figure includes VAT. Hearts will pay the £227k, and reclaim the VAT. The net cost will be £189k.

    A fine would be meaningless. Further point deductions would be nice.

    Thanks, that backs up my theory then that a representative of Hearts laid a Wreath on the War Memorial for which the club never paid a penny.

    In anybody's language, that's absolutely shameful; especially so considering the club themselves have mentioned the sacrifice of the McRaes Battalion in order to rally the modern day troops to give them money.
