    But being at the bottom of the league takes away the fear of being bottom of the league, surely?
    They only owe the bottom of the league position to theirselves so it doesn’t count.

    Why would a SPFL club have to go bust? Budge has brought it to national attention if push comes to shove article 12 it. At very least can threaten it and see what the players do in response. No other top league club is running about screatching article 12 threats out of desperation so conclusion is no other top flight club is in as much **** as Hearts.
    Other running costs can't be solved by suspending player contracts but if a club was in so much difficulty they would be making this saving at least.
    Hearts the only ones to beat this drum. They'll be back to charging their own disabled supporters for parking on land that they only pretended to own, dipping into their own charity buckets and stealing poppies to aid themselves soon.

    If hearts do get relegated for being bottom of the league and the worst team in it for 15 months inspite of them out spending everyone other than the old firm it couldn't be funnier. Such a massive effort in fundraising from the fans and millions ploughed in and flushed straight down the pan. Excellent.

    Hurry up next season when they can bleat about denying other clubs the maroon pound (not making this up). The same clubs that forked out to help save them when they were on their knees in self inflicted Admin by handing over percentages of their home gates. The most repulsive cheating sporting institute there is getting wound up about corruption and cheating. Couldn't make it up. Karma.
    I had forgotten about the other clubs helping out in that way. Shameless hypocrites, Hearts that is! Great post!

    Think it was land that belonged to Tynie High School hearts used to charge supporters to park there. And Edinburgh council did what exactly?

    And now they reckon they're responsible for Celtic's hooped strips.

    Is there nothing they won't claim responsibility for? Well, nothing except their own situation.

    🤣 they choose expelled over on brokeback as it takes the sting out of relegation slightly. You are normally expelled for doing something wrong so they are definitely on the right path with that, expelled because you are horse ****

    The really damning thing about Hearts’ demise and probable relegation is the behaviour and attitude of both the management of the club and it’s supporters as they sink slowly into a situation in the championship where they will be despised by all the other clubs. Their belligerence, lying and straw clutching venom has little effect other than burning the slender bridges they need to be in place for an eventual return to the Premiership. They’ll get no quarter given and they’ll be the team that everyone wants to beat. They remind me of the stereotypical guilty prisoner being dragged, screaming his innocence, to the gallows. Their drop could very well be fatal as well.

    If that’s the case let’s hope for them the majority of their squad has expelled clauses in their contracts and not relegation.

    It’s a stretch and then some.

    Tomorrow I look forward to a Jambo claiming they won the Champions League last season because of their special relationship with Liverpool.

    Sooner the sniveling plastic huns are relegated the better. I don't even want them going back to their yo-yo club roots I want them down permanently

    Meanwhile their fans' threats to boycott away matches means they are of no financial value to Premiership or Championship clubs - neither division needs or wants them.

    Likey unpopular perspective but...

    As the enormity of this crisis unravels I wouldn’t be too surprised for football to have to rip it up and start again as clubs tinker on the brink.
    Hearts will be saved through the demise of others.

    As a result if their Vladdish excesses they’ve ended up with a competitive advantage in the additional revenues from FOH at a level unlike other clubs. If this continues they will be better placed to handle a lack of spectators through the gates that other clubs on the brink.

    If push cametto shove they already have the donators. Some may dry up as the crisis extends but they have a foundation.

    Do folks think we’d flip modes and donate in numbers approaching Hearts?

    As discussed elesewhere their monthly expenditure appears quite high (£500k a month more than us) and FOH donate around £1.25m (excellent btw) that donation would fund the difference for about 10 weeks. They spend around £900k a month more than Hamilton, Ross County and St. Mirren so about 5 weeks worth there. The Rangers spend about £1m a week more than us.

    Sure I read somewhere that it is a 25% cut in wages. Possibly one of the papers when the wage cuts were forced.

    For some reason I though I had read we were in the region of 775,000 monthly and they were £1.4 million monthly. So around double.

    For year ended 30 June 2019 our costs were £10.6 m therefore just under £0.9m per month. There's were £14.7m therefore £1.23m per month, a difference of about £330k per month.

    I saw that as well now you mention it. I was working from stuff from the Twitterati that was posted when the suspension of games kicked in and will likely be out of date. 2019 accounts had their overall wage bill at 1.9m more than us (they have more staff I think) which would suggest the major part of the discrepancy is elsewhere.
    Since the last accounts were published we have Ron Gordon coming in, they have a bloated playing squad, new management team, an unfinished stand and are staring relegation in the face.

    I actually think this is what Hearts are waiting on. Smacks of Dundee syndrome again by delaying the inevitable administration to ensure no points lost. Some of the teams above them may go into admin or worse and that is where I think Hearts are playing the game.
