Hearts haven't come out of this well at all. No class whatsoever

You have just noticed?

[Clarence]

I’m extremely biased but I think an objective observer would see how amateur she has been in the way she has conducted herself. She must be someone who has got her own way by causing a fuss and making overblown threats, based on not much else other than hot air. The press coverage of the situation has been equally amateur or nothing more than clickbate.

They lifted it in a neighbouring state last week. Everybody ran out and got drunk. Social distancing broke down, there were numerous alcohol related driving accidents, fights and shootings. There is now a limit on how much alcohol you can buy in the state.

Bloody hell, sounds crazy.

..and what happens if they finish bottom of a 14 team league?

Increase to 16? What would defo happen is i would pee ma pants in mirth!

And what happens if next season is interrupted by a second wave of CV? Do we have no relegation again and up to a 16 team league?

Ozzy as i said earlier if this is temp fix and we are to go back to 12 from 14 potentially 4 teams could be relegated no one is going to vote for that...i don't see what new solution she can offer .
I cannot work this out at all .
As for going to court how can you take your fellow club members to court for voting as per the rules for what they want.
When you think it through this must be all over tomorrow lunchtime . All things settled and hearts down

I am now of the mind that if we could find a way to finish the league then let’s do it. I know it’s not going to happen, not now, but imagine the shock the maroon mutants would get if they were expected to play 8 remaining games.

They have sickened the players with pay cuts and the way they went about it and by all accounts the players have little fitness programmes given the uncertainty with the staff and manager and coaches.

Tomorrow the SPFL Board will ask to see the report and ask Dr Mrs Budge if she has gained any support for her proposal. Dr Mrs Budge will then have to admit that the Premier League clubs by and large told her where to put it.

The Board will theN thank Dr Mrs Budge for her work, congratulate her on her multi-tasking and give her their best wishes for next season in the Championship. ‘And could you close the door on the way out, Dr Mrs Budge’.

“Right Mrs Budge hand in your homework”
“Err well you see, the dug ate it”.
“Ah right, so are you telling us today’s plan is now tomorrow’s dug s-h-I-t-e”?
“Eh aye”
“Nothing ever changes with that club, pure dug *****”. 😂

It should be clear by now that is not ok to relegate Hearts under any circumstances.

Budge has ‘invested’ a lot of money and if they aren’t quite off the bottom of the table it’s definitely not their fault.

Never in the 130 years of the football league in Scotland has there been a less dignified relegation.

If you had to predict who that club might have been your first guess would always have been Hearts.

Yup. Rivalry aside, I’d imagine that Hearts would be near enough everybody in Scotland’s first guess other than Hearts fans. They really are embarrassing themselves. And that’s saying something.

I'm with you on this for sure but we really have to have a provision for Hearts landing in last place again.

Maybe a Save Hearts In Trouble type clause that applies only to Hearts if they face relegation as they are the only club that won't accept finishing bottom as a result of their off pitch decisions and on pitch performances. Another first.

I'd genuinely be embarrassed if that was my team. Classless. Their fans are lapping it up though. Becoming more like their Govan brothers with every passing day. The funny thing is I couldn't be any prouder of how we've conducted ourselves lately and not just with the Coronavirus situation. That's the difference.

Looks like league called tomorrow, Budge not submitted any reconstruction plans to the league yet. This is her last chance but a classic DR “source” has said there’s an appetite for reconstruction or giving hearts some financial compensation if relegated.

[Joe6-2]

Someone tell me they are definitely down tomorrow, please!

According to KB, The Sun and the Daily Ranger Bagpuss has until the end of the week to sub!it her paper and reconstruction or compensation almost a certainty

Not what I want to hear, I will be raging if they get out of this.

[Pete]

Who will be paying this compensation?

I'm probably in a minority who doesn't think it's fair that anyone is being relegated like this, and is therefore open to reconstruction...but will this pay out lessen anything we are entitled to?

Also, wouldn't compensation be unfair on their Championship rivals?

[Austinho]

Only fair that compensation should be the same as Partick and Stranraer. £10,000 should do the trick.

I don’t mind if they get some sort of compensation but I’d be surprised if they get reconstruction. If they get reconstruction, it will be because Celtic, Rangers and Aberdeen have persuaded all of the Premiership to accept it.

What could they say to persuade Hamilton and St Mirren etc...?

Also, when people mention 'appetite for reconstruction', they maybe mean that the big teams are open to the idea. What they might forget is that in a democracy, the will of St Mirren is just as important as that of Aberdeen or Rangers and their single votes will count exactly the same.

During the Romanov era I wrote a fairly well informed piece for this website on the state of Hearts finances at the time. It was based on EN reports and Hearts own statements at the time so how could it be anything but accurate? I would remind anyone who might consider voting in favour of a reconstruction of the league that, if we are to believe recent reports, the financial situation at Tynecastle still appears to be something of an issue. It would seem obvious to me that reconstruction is not the answer if Hearts finances are the problem as more teams in the SPL would mean they would get even less than they do currently. If Hearts finances are not the problem then let them go down so that they can no doubt return stronger and in better shape in a few years. Wouldn’t that be the best thing for them?

Eh no that would not be best for them for everyone else yes but not them.

Reconstruction - fair to Hearts not fair to Dundee. While Hearts get saved, ICT get promotion, far better off. If Hearts can make the points up, so can Dundee.

The fair thing is to promote one team, United. So 13 team team top league.....work that one out. As soon as Budge claims promoting ICT is fair, she loses the argument about no-one being disadvantaged.

The situation is crap, but the simplest solution is the most obvious.

Some cracking quotes from Mad Vlad.

“Our goal has to be champions of Europe. I want us to be at the stage where to do anything else, to come back without the trophy, would be shameful. I think we’re looking at three years.”
— Vladimir Romanov, October 15, 2005

“I think that the club will no longer be in debt at end of the year and a budget of £10m will be made available. Buying players will be the decision of the head coach and Anatoly Byshovets [the then director of football]. They will look after the team, my only input will be to ensure that their transfer activity is within the club’s budget.”
— Vladimir Romanov outlines his strategy for Hearts in an interview with Russian newspaper Izvestia, October 3, 2004

“I’ll put all my efforts into keeping the stadium and build an even better venue to meet the requirements of today and tomorrow — better than anything in Glasgow,” — Vladimir Romanov, November 30, 2004

The voice of a lunatic.

Does anyone know when the court dates are for the accused in the UKIO Bankas case in Lithuania?

If Mad Vlad is found guilty in his absence, should there be a concerted campaign with the SFA to have HMFC stripped of their cups? Who fancies leading that charge? Stick the knife in when they are down.
