Hopefully not a precedent for the higher leagues in both Scotland and England.

I think if anything it just means that 100% won't be happening to the leagues higher in the pyramid.

Not only has she a neck like a turkey, this 'statement' (spiel) proves that you also couldn't mark her neck with a blow-torch !

There's so many lies, falsehoods and bluff in her crap, it's hard to decide where to start - but the mere one paragraph dedicated to their now infamous leaked e-mail is telling. Guaranteed that right now at the PBS, top-of-the-list in priorities will be finding out - WHO LEAKED IT ??

Am I wrong in thinking that one of the first things Ron did after taking over Hibs was to set up a loan facility (presumably with a bank)? If so, isn't it simply a blatant lie that not getting a bank loan "is not a Hearts problem; it is a Football problem"?

Was the loan facility not with Ron himself rather than a bank?

According to “folk in the know” it was Alan Preston and he has been slaughtered on Brokeback.

I've seen his name credited for it but find it hard to believe as he's always been a toadying, sycophantic, little Jambo-runt- he must've known that leaking this e-mail would hurt his team ??

Did they not think before they signed Boyce on £6,000 a week that they can’t afford him? Yes, they did, but once again they’re a law unto themselves. They should have plenty put by with the fans monthly payments, but once again, gross mismanagement & over spending continues, then play the poor us trump card. ***** them. Relegation and struggles ahead hopefully. Try running your club properly like your more illustrious & respected neighbours!

I don't think that's any indication to be honest.

These leagues they're talking about are almost amateur Sunday League level.

There would be an outcry if that happened at the top of English football, for example with Liverpool.

I used to steward at a step 5 team (4 below the National League) and I can assure you that the level is far from pub league. A lot of teams in the likes of the Southern League wouldn't look out of place in the lower SPFL leagues.

Once they announce a contract extension with a 50% pay rise for Levein, that should secure 1st prize.

Obviously they’ll announce theses contracts in a press conference both days in The Balmoral hotel. Be as well staying all weekend, the FOH will foot the bill. 👍

Ok I stand corrected then. I still don't think that's the way the Premier League will choose to end their season.

would need to be a different venue, the balnoral is Hibs territory, they could maybe make the statements outside the council HQ, they seem to like each other

Michael Stewart is absolutely spot on about the impact Hearts approach could have on their dressing room.

*Asking footballers to take a pay cut
*So the club can save money
*Money that will then be used to pay a transfer fee to sign YOUR replacement

A lot of Hearts players will be having "WTF" chats with their agents right now

Mentally, they were halfway out the door the minute Ann Budge asked them to take a paycut.
This email about how Hearts are targetting their replacements already (and how the new boys will be paid with the current team's withheld wages) will see many reach 95% "gone already & who cares about Hearts" mode

Indeed. A great tragedy.

Will this hand-clapping for the NHS staff tonight at 8pm be overshadowed by, or seen by our pink chums as jealous copying of their solo hand-clapping on their piazza thing?

I think the idea only came about because of their solo pizza Clapper.

Having spent many seasons playing Sunday League, are they nowt. There are an expanse of long established and well run clubs operating below the three National League levels with history, decent fan bases and money behind them.

Our own Tommy Block came straight out of the Isthmian League and Corinthian Casuals have a history of England internationalists and FA Cup tussles.
The Northern Premier League for example has recently played hosts to clubs formerly from further up the pyramid like Barrow and Chester and clubs who have made it back up to the EFL (or up there for a first time) like Fleetwood, Accrington Stanley, Macclesfield Town and Burton Albion. Past 25 years has seen Forest Green Rovers and Newport County get out of the Southern League and up to the EFL in time.

Never comfortable when the old ‘pub league / Sunday league’ stuff gets trotted out.

In her statement she mentions that Banks will not loan Hearts Money . This is not a Hearts problem but a football one...

I thought Banks didn’t loan money to clubs that had gone into administration

Is this correct and if needed Football clubs in general can get a loan from a bank

I work for a Bank that has been involved with most of Scotland's football clubs and there is zero appetite to lend to professional sports clubs regardless of their solvency history.

My mates the Casuals manager (and my other mates the keeper!) Very decent standard and decent support. And amateur as well.
