    Those muppets troubles haven't even started yet. This whole business is much more complex than FOH/BDO/Banderson/EEN/Pishy drawers have led the deluded to believe. I think it's instructive that seasoned yam players like Steve Cardownie are keeping their distance from this debacle. Jambo he might be, but his politician's nose is attuned to scenting an Edinburgh disaster, and there's a ****storm in the air, bound slowly but surely for Gorgie. At the end of the season the Yams will look back on this winter with rose-tinted nostalgia. This is as good as it's likely to get for them for some time to come.
    This is what I don't get. Considering that they've repeatedly put their hands in their pockets for the current and previous regime, you would think that they might start asking a few questions. e.g.

    Who is actually putting up the money for the FOH bid?
    We're all worried about the frozen shares, if they really are no problem, why have BDO not yet made a statement to that effect?

    I would be so proud of the Yams if they make it successfully through the season, albeit relegated, but still in admin.

    If they still haven't reached zero point by May, and being in admin means they start on minus one third of the previous season's total, would their current -3 mean they start next season on -1?

    If so, that is genius.

    Yams win the Rachel Riley Award for creative accountancy even in Administration, though at arguably a wee bit of a price (dignity, respect, relegation, probity, integrity to name but five victims...)

    Haven't they changed it to automatic relegation for administration now?

    Thanks

    For a minute I was trying to work out if minus one third of -3 would be plus 1 point (top of the league on day one) or minus nine or minus one.

    Thankfully minus 15 rules take the head scratching out of it!

    Hilarious of Midlothian. I hope their demise is strung out as long as possible.

    I never, ever expected their death to be as hysterical as it's playing out. It really has been a wholly pleasant surprise.

    slightly off topic, but i saw this news item and immediately thought of the huge hertz support


    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-25316449


    Television viewers were exposed to nearly 400,000 payday loan adverts last year, according to the regulator, Ofcom.


    one loan advert for every yamboid on planet earth


    just sayin likesy

    I take issue with this post. I am not convinced Banderson/EEN/Pishy Breeks know wtf is going on at all.

    The haunted expressions of both I am an MP and BJ after the 'successful' CVA meeting suggest that they, at least, have an inkling that the train is approaching fast and they still have a lot of knots to untie before they can get off the tracks.

    It reminds me of that long running tv comedy programme that everyone loved and thought would never end. The one with all those lovable characters. What was it called again ...........

    Oh yeh ' Last of the Gorgie Swine'.

    Funniest thing of all is that the majority of them still don't 'get it'.

    They keep acting the same way they were all so critical of Rangers fans for acting as well. "We're too big to go bust" "The fans will never let the club die" "We're the world famous" etc. Makes it even more hilarious.

    Yip they sure do. Yams I know think that's that and they will be back to normal from the start of the season albeit in the Championship.

    They also think they will still have the 3rd biggest budget . When they said this I laughed out loud.

    Talking of scarves, I wonder how the wee lassie that buried her Hertz scarf under the East stand is fairing up. As fir the scarf, it must be turning in its grave.
    GGTTH
    I will give her £10 to stick into her beloved hertz fund if she comes back and digs it out...with a plastic teaspoon! Bet the dozy mare is not laughing too hard right now, albeit like the rest of them she probably feels compelled to by something from the club charity shop every time she visits that dump!

    Sorry boys - just got in as one had to moor ones boat up for winter - friggin' ducks have crapped all over the deck.

    Interesting reading the last few pages. Seems like a few were a wee bit hasty to judge poor old moi a few weeks back. Makes you wonder what BDO actually had to do to get to the CVA 'approved' stage, especially when I was categorically told it was going to be a NO vote.

    Surely BDO aren't playing games? They've certainly NO influence as to what's happening in Lithuania.

    It's good to be in contact with someone who has, though

    GIRFUY ya Kickback strokers.

    The Lithuanians can do without the bad PR of pushing a Scottish football club onto the scrapheap and cashing in on their, urrm, scrapheap of a ground. They know their legal process is going to go into an attritional stage so approve the CVA conditionally, then they will cash in down the line.

    Actually, it should mean they start on +1 (double minus = positive at my school), so as you say simply genius
