    Their initiative has given me some inspiration for my own home. I’ve not much of a view from my kitchen window, but thanks to streaming to a TV I now have a lovely view of Sydney Opera House.

    Hearts the banter years 23/24 season

    All jokes aside, one does need to wonder if there’s any accountability at all in this Chairperson’s ongoing vanity project?

    The fans are supposed to own the club but they have had someone in charge for a long time who’s spent their way through £16m+ of their own fan donations and, if Anderson chips in his £4m+ this year, over £34m of benefactor donations.

    How much does a trophy win cost on the west side of Edinburgh nowadays? Romanov’s project finished up at extra financing of around £35m per tainted trophy but this current incarnation with its £50m of extra cash already spent has zero trophies to show. Will it go to £60m? £100m? £1bn??? Keep going!

    With their recent appeal to young fans to join up to the foundation with monthly contributions of their pocket money you gotta wonder if Dr Budge is sitting there on the Tynecastle throne like some evangelical American lay preacher trying to squeeze out every last drop from the gullible followers in the name of the glory of . . . . . . ach I’m so bored of this now I think I’ll give up writing about it when they get to £100m of donations wasted or win a trophy. Whatever comes first.

    It's all about increasing the value of the business to maximise the profit on Budge's 17.4% when she exits.

    She still owns 17.4%? In about 12 months time her loans will all be repaid, with interest, and her family will have sucked out many millions in construction costs of the stadium. Her actual total contribution to the club will be £0m once all the loans are repaid. We’d all pee our pants laughing if she still owned 17.4% after all that.

    Ownership transferred to FoH in Aug 2021.

    Confirmation statement of 9/12/21 (lodged on 24/12/21) shows Bidco holding of 27,162, 811 (page 65 of statement, see link below) of a total of 156,478,232 (page 888), which is 17.4%

    Subsequent statement had shareholders details on CD so cannot see if it has since changed but I doubt it.

    I'll say it - a 22 bed hotel, in Edinburgh, with a restaurant kitchen already serving food attached, with access to a bar (doesn't it?). Regardless of it's location or association, that would be a huge success anywhere in the city (if ran by someone with half a business brain). St James' Quarter have 3 hotels for example, so there's absolutely demand.

    We should definitely look at this model IMO, less than a mile to the city, the tram link from the airport and a 12 minute walk. (Tynecastle is a 16 minute walk from the nearest tram stop at Murrayfield, and a far ****ter walk). There's also some events booked into Meadowbank, the snooker next week for example.

    That guy on Reddit? He’s an imposter with an uncanny similar interest in the comedy shenanigans happening with our neighbour’s finances.

    I went in to the website tynecastleparkhotel.com where there is an excellent description of each of the room styles. Interestingly there is not a single image. Not of the rooms, the ground, or even stills that will be projected on the pretend window tv screens.

    Must be exclusive hotels if they have pretend windows.

    If you are selling a house which has a room with no windows it is not called a bedroom but a boxroom. Should it not be a 22 boxroom hotel?

    Accountability won't have entered their heads, these are the folk who bent over for Vladimir Romanov.

    They are far too busy wandering about bragging about being "owners" of Mrs doctor Budge's various projects to actually pause and check how their cash is being managed.

    Long may it continue.

    We have no room in the stands so would have to be a new build so where would you suggest we build it.

    There would be a substantial capital outlay to build from scratch. Would take a while to payback the capital outlay.

    Its the art of deception, just like their sell outs every home game and their 15,000 on the waiting list for season tickets and their staircase to nowhere

    World first, biggest and best hotel with no windows anywhere in the world etc etc.......

    No other football club is capable of delivering such an innovation. It's like the alfresco press areas, unique.
