    This. Doncaster is reading from the rule book, nothing more. This health and safety stuff is nonsense anyway, they have 38 registered players so if some of the poor wee lambs are 'burnt out' then play someone else. It's quite ironic that it's only BDO, Locke and Brown who are bleating about this. Any interviews with the players seem to state the complete opposite how playing at such an early age is doing them the world of good.
    Well Locke keeps telling us he's not making any excuses, and Billy Brown has been places. It's all a bit of a mystery.

    Looks like from this that they are sweating on the shares being handed over by next month or.....http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.co...deal-1-3264506
    Lovin it !.

    I think Hertz have backed themselves into a corner here. It's going to be interesting to see their team today. They are now bleating about only having 12 available because of new injuries and illnesses. So do they play today with 1 sub just to make a point prior to the meeting on Monday or do these players have a miraculous Lazarus like recovery a la Tattoo Man and field their normal (albeit garbage) team to try and pick up some points. Either way, they're going to a laughing stock.

    Personally I hope they go with their full team and the Well put 8 past them. Then they are laughed out of their meeting on Monday. Best of both worlds.

    “There’s no real Plan B after that. If we get to the end of February and the deal’s not done then we need to assess whether the deal’s going to get done at all and if so how close we are to getting it completed. If we’re close to getting it done, then we might be able to hold on for another few weeks. The situation’s pretty fluid, it’s just a case of assessing all your options at the time.”

    Meanwhile, Jackson insists Hearts have enough funds to survive a six-week period without a home game after today’s visit from Motherwell.
    Might be a bitter Hobo, but this along with other statements in the last couple of days lead me to think that the Yams will be dead by the end of March unless the deal goes through.

    It would explain why they are so desperate to get to the league cup final.

    Hmm... So he's saying they've got money until end of February and at a push can maybe last a couple of weeks more?

    This for me ladies and gentlemen is a defining point.

    I don't believe BJ has to date admitted (until now):-

    1. They run out of money in less than 7 weeks (or 0-7!).
    2. Admitted real concern around timing
    3. Admitted that yams STILL need TWO block of shares and dependant on TWO shareholder meetings (still unscheduled).

    As someone said, one of the key reasons they want new players im and now is for cup semi. That game will earn them £500k+ if they make the final. ICT should be firing up the lawyers as we speak with a pre-emptive strike!

    This is where the real fun starts.

    My favourite part of the statement- "There’s no real Plan B after that. If we get to the end of February and the deal’s not done then we need to assess whether the deal’s going to get done at all " explains the need to sell players and get other players in for nothing. They should never have been allowed to start the season without a bond being paid to make sure they finished it.

    ... because it's not yet news.

    When it does become so, it will be accompanied by such words as "shock", "bombshell", "out of our control" and "it's not our fault".

    The Yams are close to the point of no return. As soon as they accept there's little/no hope of surviving relegation, the games will really begin - expect them to bleat about injuries, suspensions, illnesses. They'll reduce their bench to 1 or 2 players and fill the team with (proper) kids - except when they play the Hibs. They'll do everything within their powers to disrupt the League and annoy the SPFL. They will blame EVERYONE and ANYONE for their predicament - as that plays to their fans and deflects any blame from themselves.

    'Frozen shares', much like the words 'cheating', 'financial-doping', 'stole from charities', 'deserve their punishment' and 'creditors shafted'.....have never been words or phrases used by that newspaper to comment on Hearts situation.

    Really looks like a sellout-NOT. Hearts online booking as of this moment with hardly an area sold out. Looks like a 13500 crowd again.

    Notice they have a full bench today including both King brothers. However Urineface can't help himself

    Hearts manager Gary Locke: "We've had a bit of a bug going about the camp. We've not had our problems to seek. Kevin McHattie and Scott Robinson start and I just hope they can last the 90 minutes."

    Anyone else sick of his moaning?

    I meant to say that as well, my mistake.

    It's 12,888 total, 829 of them being Motherwell fans.

    That's a 6% drop in attendance over last week.

    It's a decent enough turn out but I assume the majority are only going because they've already bought a season ticket.

    Also it won't last all season. I'm pretty sure making fans watch eye bleeding football like that contravenes the geneva convention.
