    With her second ramblings surely that must be in breech of the arbitration panel settlement. They previously said that all sides agreed to say nothing now less than 24 hours gone she’s released two statements?

    The SFA must take action against this woman, she is damaging Scottish football. Her nonsense and claims are wrong on most fronts.

    Not once has she acknowledged that her team were 4 points adrift playing poorly having wasted millions off fans money poor players on inflated contracts. She further wasted millions on an unfinished stand. She does not own Hearts but refuses to hand over the reigns, she has taken them for a ride. Alarm bells should have been ringing when she did the lap of honour with the Championship trophy. No self respecting owner would ever do that.

    April 10th is when it was reported they would accept relegation!

    Cannot wait to see her coupon on the Documentary when she’s told they lost their arbitration case!

    Yeah, can't wait to see her doing Roger Moore eyebrows acting surprised one minute and then not surprised the next.

    Does anyone know if the tv crew are still filming the documentary ? I'd hate to think they stopped before it got to the arbitration panel's decision.
    It's still filming, someone tweeted the production company and asked and they confirmed it, can't wait

    Brilliant news, thanks. I have visions of it being like a remake of The Office with Ann Brent taking centre stage.

    Beat me to it. This outburst absolutely has to be dealt with by the authorities.
    This rogue club have spent months trying to disrupt Scottish football after spending millions trying to buy their way out of a relegation spot. That fails.

    They invent a wholly unjustified compensation figure in an attempt to scare Scottish football in to submission. That fails.
    They knowingly break the rules and by-pass the football authorities to go to court. That fails.
    They have lived in a fantasy world where they promote the idea that there is something underhanded going on at the SPFL, an organisation that they are a full, contributing, member of. That fails.
    They force the SPFL to reveal all documents pertaining the the circumstances surrounding the ending of season 2019/20, convinced they will find a “Smoking gun”. That fails.
    They argue their now pathetically weak case in front of three, eminently qualified and independent, judges. That fails
    And now their rhetoric is to kick off at the result, somehow suggesting that they are in a “War” against something or someone.

    If they cannot find some dignity soon I sincerely hope the authorities throw the book at them. This one team **** show must stop and if it means sticking them at the bottom tier of Scottish football to cool their jets then maybe that is the answer.

    When do they go up in front of the SFA? That could be a right hoot 😂
    The media narrative from all the Hearts apologists, the usual suspects, from now till any SFA sanction will be of victimhood, severe injustice and poor little Hearts being kicked when they’re down by the big, bad football authorities.

    Add in poor wee Partick and I ‘d be very surprised if any action is taken. I suspect they will be threatened with sanction should they not finally accept the decision and move on.

    Bill Leckie was on Sky news earlier saying all they had to do was beat St. Mirren, calling budge out for forcing pay cuts the day after lock down was announced and basically saying tough s***, you had a bigger budget than County, Accies and Saints combined but you still finnished bottom.
    He pointed out the example of Peterborough missing out on the playoffs by a baw hair on average points per game, did they whinge? No because there were far greater things going on in the world, 45,000 dead and counting here alone.
    Let's get him v Tom English please.

    Financial mismanagement is in their roots. In December Budge mentioned a financial shortfall and then a few months back the black hole went from 3, then to 5 and at the last count 8 million. However in amongst all this she states that Benny has put money into the club that will secure their finances for next 5 years?

    I really do want her to stay on because I want to see more financial/business mismanagement and statements.

    oh don’t worry, when she finally does clear out her desk she will be replaced by the fans themselves. More comedic catastrophic mismanagement virtually guaranteed!

    I mean just look at the state of JKB... would anyone seriously let that lot loose on running a football club? Well, apparently Hearts will.

    And to put the tin lid on it, none of that would have happened if they had beaten St Mirren in a single game in March.

    It’s not easy picking a favourite part of Queen Anne’s statement, but I think “My rant is over for now” has to win it for me. Firstly the admission that it is indeed a rant, then the promise that she will return for some more ranting at a later date, and finally the fact that she actually continues to rant on for another 4 paragraphs anyway, culminating in the particularly crass line about winning wars. Incredible stuff.

    Leckie hadn’t held back in his condemnation of hertz and their utter hypocrisy of nobody being disadvantaged then of course trying to stop the theee teams getting promoted. Only ever puts the boot in to us when we genuinely clock up. Always writes interesting pieces.

    She is the head of a so called top club in Scotland but behaves if she owns a pub team given a few dodgy refereeing decisions. It’s to the media’s eternal shame and their rush to the lowest common denominator to get readers that’s she has been indulged for so long. She’s contradicted herself countless times but she is never challenged. Farcical. Can you imagine Sir tom farmer or Ron Gordon ranting for four paragraphs. Me neither and therein lies the difference in the two clubs. One has class, is dignified and is not a rent a quote club. The other is the gorgie losers living in their own wee bubble.

    It’s amazing how Anne budge has managed to deflect all the attention away from how bad hearts have been over the past 18months. Bad managers, bad signings and a horrendous run of form seem to have been forgotten about. It’s now everybody else’s fault for them being relegated

    Serious question.

    Does anyone actually think they will be promoted as things stand?

    Off field disruption ✅
    Huge squad ✅ (many of them likely to be seeing out costly contracts)
    Motivation in the gutter ✅
    Massive budget cuts across the whole club, with a reduced income ✅
    A funding model based on success on the pitch (😂😂😂) ✅
    A manager with a history of playing eye bleeding football ✅
    Fans likely to turn on them very quickly when / if things don’t start well ✅
    A chair woman with an awful track record of running the club ✅
    No TV money ✅
    Max away supporters (Raith, Dunfermline, Dundee of c800) ✅

    Remember when they ripped off loads of local businesses and didn’t pay their bills....,karma is a bitch 😂😂😂🖕🖕🖕

    It's quite something how upset they are getting about Doncaster being "delighted". Apparently he shouldn't because people will lose their jobs at Tynecastle now. Short memories from the same people who were taking great delight at the prospect of that happening at Easter Road less than a month ago.

    We have a different government with different rules. Ours is based on keeping folk alive in England it's based on keeping money flowing.
    Scottish teams were not allowed to resume training until 29/6 and not allowed to resume matches until 1/8.
    UEFA had set a date of 3/8 to complete last season so unless we were going to play 8 matches per team in 3 days it was not possible!

    They probably will. Although they are absolutely ***** hence the reason they finished bottom there isn't a lot of competition in that league next season. It's Hearts though so you never know they could end up 3rd or 4th.

    They’ll come back up. The squads in that league will have been greatly reduced as well and there is no money for them to replace players.

    Think it has been clear from the start Budge was petrified from the reaction of the fans if she didn't go the whole way as she had dug herself in a hole with her wild initial accusations.
    I think that is it in a nutshell.

    Pride and prejudice has started many wars and broken many a fool!

    I’ll be amazed if they don’t win the division comfortably. The monthly FOH cash alone will see them considerably better off than any other team in the wee league.

    i actually think relegation will turn out to be a blessing for them. They’ll rebuild and come back stronger. Had they managed to stay up this season they probably would have been just as rank next season

    You do however realise that if LD on RG produces a statement like that the media outlets and In particular BBC Sportsound would rip it to absolute spreads and slate the club big time!

    Because we have only just been given permission to play football in Scotland and UEFA wanted the leagues finished by 3rd August. There would have been 49 games to be played over two days between 12 clubs. The UK government allowed football in England and even then the less rich League One and below also called their league like ours did.

    "My rant is over for now". If Ron or Leeann had said that on an official club statement I'd be cringing. Amateur club at best.
