Ulysses Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I know I have not posted on here... We've been here a long time, through winning a cup and having a roller coaster ride over the last couple of years. You never found us then. No opinions to offer, no comment to make, no analysis to discuss, no frustrations to express. But hey, you had no trouble finding us and registering to talk about some unsubstantiated doom and gloom rumour. So the "facts" may not read well for us, but somehow I don't think you're too worried.

Snake Plissken Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 So we're going bust again... I have to say I'm getting doomsday fatigue. Could we maybe have some ground rules on this sort of thread? i.e if you don't name the source in the OP then its thread deleted. If you have less than 100 posts you can't start a thread - this will eliminate wind-up threads as no-one will go to the time and effort (or be able to) get to 100 posts just to post a thread.

Charlie-Brown Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 The Birac aluminium factory had been making losses but it seems as if they've now returned to profitability according to the most recent figures. http://www.alacrastore.com/storecontent/ISI_Intellinews/IntelliNews_Today-BA187195129 Also from Reuters http://www.metalprices.com/metalNews.asp?id=77592&svc=RN&type=1 August 22 - Birac, owner of Bosnia's sole alumina refinery, moved into profit in the first half of the year after completing a restructuring of the plant. Since 2006, the refinery has operated using only 50 percent of its installed capacity of 600,000 tonnes because of low global alumina prices and the high cost of electricity and gas needed in its production.

If you look at the key facts I pointed out then you should be concerned about the UBIG group. Wether this story is rumour or not, the UBIG group are in trouble when you look at the facts of business. You seem that concerned that the rumour never spurred you to look at the UBIG website. no. Hearts can't go into administration without the whole group being in trouble. have a look for yourself and tell me it makes good reading? Now instead of debating this without facts, go and find some.

ruuudi Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 I have a low post count so ignore this if you want I heard the administration rumour from a friend of a friend of a friend who attributed it to someone who used to own a lot of Hearts shares and who i imagine would maybe have this type of information. I'm not naming the exact source not to protect that person, but to protect the person who's been told privately and who's leaked it. Of course it could all be Chinese whispers and is just that stadium company not happy at a bill not being paid so starting court action. Wouldn't be the first time Hearts have be slow at paying up, but always do in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely scenario is he will try and sell us and get some money back. just my opinion I am not sure that there is any evidence of great personal wealth at the Romanovs. Total assets of UBIG are ?161m at end June, current full market capitalisation of Ukio Bankas is c. ?65m, Hearts are obviously worth nothing.

Right Meadows tell me whom you deal with at HBOS corporate almost daily, bearing in mind my sister in law is at the top there I am interested as to how such a "prominent edinburgh business man" with one pub speaks to them "daily", your words. I am not doubting Hearts are in trouble what worries me is that your last attempt at fanning the flames never taught you a lesson. Cash flow problems are an issue; hopefully the Craig Gordon money and the sale of sellic tickets can help short term, but there is no doubt a problem exists; your words and the facts that ill advised kbers seem to listen to your rantings and in the last major post lies, worry me.

delpieroismagic Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 No doubt there is a major cash flow issue.

A price too far in my book if it's in order to rid us of VR. Not necessarily. That would only be the case if all debts need to immediately be called in. If Hearts could get rid of the high earners (Beslija, Makela, Basso etc) and scale down other unncesserary costs to a manageable level, the club could continue at Tynecastle provided it can service the existing debt. There is no doubt in my mind that HMFC need a clean break from the Romanov regime. I mean what does it say that a lifelong supporter such as myself, season ticket 13 seasons in a row etc...didn't buy a season ticket for this season and has only attended the first two home games of the season? For the long term benefit of HMFC, a parting of the ways with Romanov is an absolute must. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
