Dalstonjambo Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Is there any chance we could now rack up over 20 million in debt, buy a few cups and then just dump all the debt after a few years please? The Hibs way of being honest and paying your way is blatantly not working. The Bad Guys do, in fact, win in the end. Quote from hibs.shite No point lads. You are already millions in debt and all you will have to show for it is relegation. At least cheat succesfully like the big team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adayinmay Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Unbelievably relieved and overjoyed. I was told about 7 weeks ago that it wasn't going to happen. From a pretty direct link to BJ the rough quote was "They (Hearts) look like a goner, can't see it happening". I then feared the worst as we struggled through the creditor meetings of UKIO and UBIG. I spent a number of weeks thinking it was over. Fair play to BJ and Anne Budge. It really looks like they have turned it around. And well done to us, the fans. Great day.

Coco Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 What a fantastic day. Have always had faith in the Hearts fans but for someone to front up and capitalise the pledges is something else. There is something special about how the club and fans have come together to rescue the club from the wreckage.

jockmac Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Great news, well done to FOH and Anne Budge. Looks like the hubs desperate, pathetic, sad and bitter obsession with our existence is finally put to bed. They schemed together, working out all the different scenarios, "we are finished" they cried, genuinely hoping we died, this was there revenge on us for all the humiliation we caused them. Hahaha. Even at our weakest we still humiliate them. They truly are a bitter lot, that's why this news news is all the more sweeter for me. Deep down they know we will only get better and stronger, I will look forward to thrashing that lot time and time again. Nice cool beers tonight, then tomorrow, enjoy another hibs humiliation.

Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Reminds me of when I was getting my colonoscopy. The Doc is inserting the camera and says, glancing at the notes, "I see you're 65. You don't look 65!" To which I reply, "Which end are you deducing that from?" Lesson, don't make the Doc laugh when she is sticking a camera up your bahoochie!!! If anyone ever inserts anything up my bottom and does not flirt with me like that beforehand, I'm not gonna snuggle afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwidoug Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 First ?1m from DDs no doubt handed over next week. According to the BBC that's right. Makes me very proud that the supporters have contributed another million and there's plenty more to follow. For the first time in donkeys years we are truly solvent and just happen to be the employers of some of the best young players in Scotland.
