    Hahaha so much for the "big" team! Thats pathetic! But they are a pathetic club
    The prospect of Butchers army descending on them repeatedly has convinced them that seconding to the third division might not be such a bad idea..

    The low crowd suggests to me that the mindset of the Hearts fans has changed and they think (rightly or wrongly) that they are over the worst and a CVA is all but finalised and administration is nearly over.

    Some of us think they are about to be liquidated. Some of us think they are saved. Some of us think somewhere in the middle. Some of is don't know.
    Hope that clears it all up for you. :-)

    Ukio Bankas Bad Bank getting its property assets auctioned off today.

    They should have enforced the security on the PBS and added the " development opportunity " to the auction lots.

    FoH could have gone along and bid their standing orders against the other vultures looking to make a fast buck.

    Does this mean the assets aren't frozen?

    My source confirmed to me this morning that last nights game was not profitable. "Not even close". He also tells me walk up revenue from league games has fallen sharply as well.

    Perhaps their fans are finally getting sick of plying money into the club for over a year whilst watching the situation getting worse rather than better?

    That was always going to happen. Nobody consistently walks up and pays to see a losing team. The idea that they would sell out every home game regardless of results was preposterous from the outset. They all say they'll go but when it comes to parting with the cash, that's a different story. Loyal my hoop.

    I wouldn't have thought the German team would have come over here without a fee being paid to them so with a crowd of just over 5,000, BDO will be having kittens at the loss made on this venture.

    Seems a bit odd that they didnt try and get this or a similar game on the Saturday when there is next to no football on what with the ridiculous Friday /Tuesday international matches. In saying that Scotland are playing rugby so maybe that is the reason. In any case Wolfsberg while no doubt a decent team arent really a massive draw crowd wise IMO. Almost feels like some people going through the motions of trying to save them rather than genuinely doing so.

    Is 'your source' still of the opinion that Hertz' survival chances are around 6%?

    Not sure what it may mean if anything but Yam golf journo Ewan Murray's just tweeted that Donald Ford and Alex Mackie have resigned from FOH. Bad news coming?

    Ewan Murray@mrewanmurray11m
    Alex Mackie and Donald Ford have resigned from the Foundation of Hearts board, as I understand it.

    Any idea which genius suggested this venture? So many things wrong with it, date & opposition, (no disrespect to Wolfsburg intended) for starters. As another poster said I think someone thought they could keep going to the well for ever but to mix analogies, you can't even fool Yams all of the time! With Xmas looming things can only get worse, I mean better of course!!

    Alex Mackie was one of the original founders of foh and was by all accounts a good guy with hearts best interests at heart, he had been falling out with the politicians that have got involved as he felt they had ulterior motives and couldn't be trusted.

    I'd say this is bad news for hearts.

    Did Shoeless Bob not make some reference to Alex Mackie being duped by F of H last week? The implosion begins!

    No idea why that would be but the one time I heard Mackie speak he sounded like the kind of guy who'd give our beloved Tache a run for his money in prudency. He was never going to cut it with the muppets who will be baying for big wages to be squandered on Rudi and the likes soon as they get out of admin.

    Do you know if this Mackie is a descendant of the author / journalist Albert Mackie, who wrote a very readable account of 'The Hearts' some time in the 60s before they sold their bairns toys?
    If so, his ancestor must be so very, very, er....proud.

    Donald Ford is a man of great integrity and (despite this) is very popular with the Hearts fans. This development spells bad news for the merricks IMHO.

    I don't know him personally but a member of my family is good mates with him. From what I understand Mackie is very much old school hearts and hasn't liked what vlad has done to the club and he's been trying to get this take over going while they were enjoying their success. Seems unlikely he'd pull out now if they were about to.succeed

    That was exactly what I thought and was genuinely concerned they would have him in charge. If they survive then it's good news he won't be involved.
