If not, why don't you practise what you preach? What has my position got to do with Hearts? Why do you think it is so wrong to argue that the club should have more cash in the bank? We don’t need to spend all our income and could still be competitive even if we built up £1 million quid a year in reserves. The long term survival of our club should be everyone’s priority. Having 2-3 months of cash in the bank is a risky strategy. We don’t need to take this risk. It would be understandable if we our income was low, it’s not. We are simply spending too much.

It is a parallel. If a similar fate struck you, without any outside help, would you be able to last a year and pay your bills? Quite simpe really. YES or NO? Could you even last 3 months as we appear able to do? YES or NO? Can we assume you are not a Company Accountant?

But the idea that the Neanderthal OF lap dog pundits Ann is having a go at would be jealous of high standards of behaviour seemed a bit of a stretch. I know what really gets their goats is any risk to the OF on the pitch I am glad we behave well but I am afraid I would swap good behaviour to an extent at least for more league points. PS but while we are on about high standards an explanation of the process by which Ann came to award a £10m contract to fit out the new stand to her brother's small joinery business would be interesting.

As far as I’m concerned he’s as welcome as a fart in a spacesuit now. Disgrace Agreed on the last sentence. But I am not sure he can "sell the jersey" in a BBC studio. The pundits jerseys are now the BBC microphones and the colours of the teams most of their audience support ie the OF. Fortunately I never read the Sun or Record sports pages and only listen to Sportsound for match commentary when Hearts TV audio is down (and even then revert to the JKB match thread if it gets too bad) so I am unaffected personally by all the output of all these idiots. A course I recommend. And banning them from Tynie would achieve whatnexactly? Other than make Hearts look petty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How on earth you can get upset by someone arguing that we should reduce the risk to our clubs future by saving more is weird. We could easily afford to do it. Don't know your financial circumstances and won't ask,but would ask this: How much have you in reserve and how many months of no income could you personally stand? Many people and companies live hand to mouth so for a business with overheads like Hearts it's understandable we don't keep huge amounts in the bank. IF we had huge amounts in reserve how many on here would be crying out for Stednel to get hold of it for better players? It wouldn't last long. No one or business saw this coming and had it not come we would not be moaning about how much was in the bank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraggle Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Was a solid statement setting the record straight. Not a huge fan of Ann Budges recent running of the club but fully backed her decision about asking staff to take a paycut, and all the reasons she has put forward in her statement. I wouldn't ban The Sun/BBC/etc. When I did the War of 2 Halves show it was the Friday night before the Rangers game a couple of years ago, and when we were in the Main Stand we walked past all the media seats. I noticed the BBC, Sun and Daily Record were all sat in pretty decent seats and thought that if I owned the club they would be sat right down the front where there is no roof and leave them open to the Scottish elements. Let them come along so we adhere to our media requirements, but treat them like shit when they are at the ground. Sure I read that Mercer was a bit of a dab hand at dealing with the media like that.

Once we have built up some cash we can increase the player budget. Like every other stable business we have cash reserves to last us up to 3 months (the amount advised by every accountant and auditor) of not having any income, the issue here is that we may have to go longer than 3 months without income so we have taken steps to ensure that the 3 month cash reserve can last longer, not exactly rocket science!
