Recommended Posts

This does ask the question as kow remarked on. What would you do if the Aberdeen FC went to the wall? Would you support "The Aberdeen FC" or would you just give up in fitbaw?

 

 

I'd want to stick by them of course but if I see the root of the problem still being involved with the club I'd have a difficult decision on my hands.

 

That said it does appear that the years of frustrating cut backs whilst other clubs went mental appear to be paying dividends and Stewarty seems to be running a tight ship. A skint one but a tight one.

Years of frustrating cutbacks due to years of mis-management at the very top - going back to Donald Jnr.  Could even say his father was short sighted in knocking back sponsorship when we were at our peak.

Jambos are being allowed to sign Danny Wilson despite having a registration ban in place according to this mornings Metro.

 

He has accepted a 50% wage cut on his deal  :rofl:

Hearts miss target

Hearts may miss the target of 3000 season ticket sales set by administrator BDO by tomorrow.

The club is thought to have sold over 2000 so far, but Hearts chiefs are hoping for a late surge in order for the club to stay afloat until the new season

 

Poor hearts  :(

America-based company Club 9 Sports have submitted a bid to buy Hearts, BBC Scotland has learned.The bid, submitted to administrators BDO ahead of a 12 July deadline for offers, is in the region of £5m.

BBC Scotland has also learned that the company's plans include a move away from Tynecastle to a purpose-built stadium on the outskirts of Edinburgh.

Club 9 Sports have been involved in failed bids for clubs including Rangers and Sheffield Wednesday.

The Foundation of Hearts, a consortium of fans' groups, are the only group who have made their intentions to buy the club public so far.

A consortium led by former Scottish Rugby chief executive Gordon McKie had proposed an alliance with the Foundation of Hearts , which was rejected.

Club 9 Sports have also set up a new company called HMFC limited with Borders-based business Bob Jamieson, who has been working alongside the company, as their sole director.

The company are based in Chicago and have also instructed an Edinburgh legal firm to act on their behalf.

 

Failed bids for 2 clubs who were financially fucked. One saved, the other burned

Has a website which tells you next to fuck all about them but does have lots of pretty pictures of various stadiums around the world

 

Bids 5million to buy a club with 25 millions of pounds of debt and say they will build a new stadium?

 

Either another non story or the potential for another 5 years of fun

Hearts: Angelo Massone involved in bid for club 

 

Former Livingston owner Angelo Massone is involved in one of the three groups bidding for control of Hearts, BBC Scotland has learned.

    Administrator BDO announced after Friday's deadline that three parties had lodged formal offers.

    Fans' group the Foundation of Hearts, HMFC Ltd, who are financed by American investors, and Five Stars Football Ltd are believed to be bidding.

    And Italian Massone is listed as a director of Five Stars Football Ltd.

    BDO will now assess the bids in detail before making a final decision on who should be the preferred bidder, probably within four to six weeks.

    During that time, offers can be amended after due diligence is completed and only then will preferred bidder status be announced.

    Five Stars Football Ltd has made the largest cash offer for the club but it is unclear how much working capital it has at its disposal.

    Massone left Livingston in July 2009 with the club having been placed in administration.

    The 42-year-old attempted to buy Hearts last year from Vladimir Romanov, but the offer was turned down immediately.

    Hearts went into administration with debts of £25m - owed to companies formerly owned by Romanov, who first invested in the club in 2005.

HEARTS administrators BDO have revealed that the club owe £28.5 million after sending a ­detailed report of the club’s debts to all 200 creditors.

 

The full extent of Hearts’ ­financial predicament has been laid bare in a 45-page document compiled by the troubleshooter.

 

It was previously thought that the Tynecastle club’s arrears stood at about £25m following years of financial mismanagement under departed owner Vladimir Romanov.

Lol :D  Hibs must be relieved, if they play anything like they did against Malmo, i'd say they'd be a shoe in for relegation this season.

 

I would laugh at the hibs result, but it screams so loudly of Aberdeen vs Sigma Olomuc. I ain't throwing any stones in our glass house quite yet. We've got a lot of promise for this season ... but am nervous about getting too excited!
