So Alex Salmon feels it is appropriate to heap political pressure onto a group of investors/creditors in their deliberation ? To hurry them up in accepting what might well be a substandard offer from a company that owes them £ millions.
I might understand this if the process was somehow unfair, unclear or carried out with undue haste and a Scottish company had not been given a fair hearing. But they have been working on this for 12 months and had ample opportunity to present their case through Admin specialists.
IMHO unless there was something fundamentally wrong with proceedings, there is simply no reason for Salmon's involvement. Had it been that fair or compelling, the FOH offer would have been accepted by now.
I now have 2 reasons for hoping their CVA is summarily dismissed, just to see Salmon's puss when the news breaks![]()

I think he's been telt"yer tees oot and there's nothing I can do!"
Its interesting how un easy he was,for a politician and first minister no less.
looked left,glanced right and stared at his toes and basically said its in the hands of the administrators.
If he felt he had influenced the situation or indeed had been given any type of assurances,being a politician his attitude would have been one of confident speak.
For me this card has been played and has now been disgarded
Whos next of the bench?

"I should say, I'm a Hearts supporter, I declare an interest, but I have made the same approaches when necessary with other football clubs in Scotland who have been similarly struggling.

It's only a matter of time till Ronnie Corbett has to step in to get this over the line.

We may not like it, but again, that's because we're Hibs fans, and we like the notion of their fans suffering. At least I do.

wish people would stop portraying the YAMS a victims in this, they are not! how about all those individuals who have lost out? what is being done for them, the small business and families that depended on that money, its a disgrace! should be over there apologising for their behaviour.
I want them to get what they deserve and will vote however I see fit!!!
each to their own so lets stick to football and the demise of them

They are running out of money fast and despite all this intervention it wont change a thing waiting on a meeting in Lith land that will not take place for weeks if at all even Jackson has all but given up he never even bothered to go over as he knows that it would be a waste of time. Friday and Monday are Easter holidays they are clinging on to blind hope youd get better odds on Alians landing this week the Lithuanians having a meeting.

Signs of desperation as club trying to save themselves and a politician about to lose a vote.

Cant help but think that those bringing the indy vote into this are being a little exploitative. But to reduce the logic a little, if you are voting no because of alex salmond then you are, by extension voting for david Cameron instead.

Salmond has done nothing wrong here whether we like it or not. I would expect him to do the same for any Scottish business, it's his job. Look at the poll above this thread. it may be very unscientific but only 50% of those who bothered voting want them to completely die. And if you polled the fans of other clubs there would be much, much less. Hibs fans may care, nobody else is really that outraged by it at all. Salmond ain't daft, any vote loss will be minimal. His intervention may well be counter productive anyway.
I still can't stand the Jambo git though.Every gimmick hungry yob,
Digging gold from rock and roll
Grabs the mic to tell us,
He'll die before he's sold.

Scotland is a relatively rich country and Lithuania is probably the poorest country in the European union yet Salmond thinks it right that the rip-off that sees the Lithuanians being paid a fraction of its debts should be rushed through to suit Scottish football peculiarities.
Salmond should have been calling for the Lithuanians to be paid in full, otherwise it looks like he is encouraging rich nations to welch on the poor nations of the world. Not quite the image he would want for the new independent nation.

Anyone who thinks this is more than a token gesture by the FM needs their head examined. "political pressure" it most certainly won't have been.
