    As the delay's pile up it increases the chance of them starting their Championship campaign on -15 points.
    Wow, do you think these delays will impact on the Champions league win as well? only it's already a bit overdue, and what with the megasuperhotelstadium not being built either there must be a couple of yams beginning to wonder if it wasn't all a big lie?

    Only truly BIG teams could do thru an entire season in administration. ..another achievement for our gorgie chums...we truly are forever in their shadow. ..



    None of us have been listening.

    They don't claim to be a BIG team. They're a UBIG team.

    S'completely different.

    The Yams won't be fooled by your cynical patter. All they need to do is close their eyes a little tighter, and BELIEVE a little harder... and all their dreams will come true.

    Why, even as we speak, I bet there's a guy somewhere in the world who dreamed Famous Maroon dreams as a boy and is richer than Vlad and Craig Whyte combined, just waiting to put his cash in.

    No.

    It lasts as long as it lasts. I've brought up the Airdrie administration before, which lasted something like 9 years.

    What about the share certificates, been sent out yet?
    it seems a long time ago already since strawberry baws, Allisbarry, was telling the world on a daily basis that Hearts were self sufficient then 'nearly' self sufficient. I think he went back n forth between the two.

    Hows it looking now sir?

    Tries to cheer the yams up by comparing today's mess with the 1980's mess, painting wallet mercer as a white knight in the process. Completely glosses over the fact that that cretinous twat was probably at the root of today's difficulties!

    I agree up to a point, but it's a risky strategy. If you tighten the eyelids too much, it locks in those silver tears of pride, the visible lack of which then only demotivates the fan base further.

    Perhaps you are right, maybe that guy who is hiding out in Russia with all the share money might come though for them, what's his name, Romanov or something like that?

    Dear God. Just when you think journalistic standards at the EEN / Scotsman couldn't fall any further.

    Where is the reporting in this? Where is the investigation of the facts or analysis of the situation? It's just wish-fulfillment typed into a computer and submitted as copy.

    "They were relegated as a consequence, for the third time in four years"

    That would require them to drop down 2 divisions .. which would have been nice, but sadly wasn't the case .. poor poor journalism

    ANY Hearts supporter looking for consolation in the wake of Sunday’s 7-0 drubbing by Celtic could be forgiven for believing their search would be long and futile. With a signing embargo currently in place and no prospect of an early exit from administration, there is no chance of reinforcing a desperately threadbare squad any time soon.
    Out of the Scottish Cup and bottom of the Premiership, the Tynecastle team do not have a lot to look forward to in the second half of the season. Even the League Cup, in which they play Caley Thistle in February’s semi-finals, might be no more than a distraction from the battle against relegation.
    The rest of it is just yam wet dreaming

    You're correct of course but Bathgate's error serves to remind us that in a 7 year period Yams were relegated 3 times, spent 4 seasons in tier 2 & came back up as runners up twice. They won't have that automatic luxury next season so an early return to the top league will be a real challenge.

    I remember reading that article after the Celtic match and couldn't believe his viewpoint........... how silly of me. Bathgate is the archetypical 'head in the sand' Jambo ostrich. His defence of them is laughable and cringeworthy and displays the desperation and selective ignorance of someone running out of hope and reality.

    Reading Bathgate is like reading chokeback in print. I'm not sure if his user ID is Le Shat or Geoff Akiltprick.

    Nae wonder the hootsman is going to the dogs with this sort of drivel, never mind, this rag will probably disappear in the near future just like the yams.

    This bit is just like it has been lifter from kickback -

    For a start, the scale of the loss has no practical effect: lose 1-0 or 7-0, either way you’re out of the Scottish Cup. And goal difference doesn’t come into it in knockout competitions, so if you are going to suffer a heavy loss, better not have it in the league.

    If you lose 1-0 we know you get stronger, because defeat makes you stronger. I forget though, in yamathematics does losing 7-0 make you seven times as strong, or one-seventh as strong, as losing 1-0?

    The ruling is -15 points or a third of last seasons total, whichever is highest. If hearts had went into admin last season like they should have, they would've been deducted 18 points.

    I'm sure there was talk of the punishment being changed to automatic relegation, but haven't heard anything about that in a while.
