Griclesfield Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 its all very well winning 100 million pounds and putting it into hearts .. but then how do you pay the players wages per week etc and the pressure on you from the support to buy quality players .... i would rather keep my money as much as i would love to own my own team.

Blizzard Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 No chance. I'd move to Lithuania and buy Kaunas. They win their domestic league and cup regularly. I'd stop all the loans. I'd sell Vellicka to the highest bidder. I'd then get Elliot, Mole, Robbie, Jose, Makela and Basso on loan for ever. I'd appoint my lad who knows feck all about Lithuanian football and I'd appoint a Scottish Spaniard who speaks perfect Russian to run the club in my abscence. I'd remain in Edinburgh where I'd take up a controlling stake in Hearts and move all the best players to Kaunas leaving Hearts to win the league and cup every year.

Hans007 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 If I had ?95m in the Robinson era I'd have wiped out the ?17m, bought his shares. Gave good contracts to Pressley, Webster, Hartley and Gordon. Built a basic but adequate stand and kept Levein giving him a big transfer kitty and full control. Nowadays you'd just be chucking money, Full of dross and reportedly ?35m+ in debt. No thanks. Would buy Hubs and shut them down but. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin_T Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I would definitely attempt to by the club, however I would look to put the club into administration before the season is out (we can't be relegated this season due to Gretna's lack of stadium), so as to reduce the debt to a sustainable level and get rid of the high earning dross on the books. Once the club had come to CVA of around 25p in the pound with existing creditors, I'd write a cheque for the outstanding debt, and run the club on a sustainable basis based on the continued development of young players allied to a sensible budget recruitment of senior players. Craig Levein would be the new Hearts manager on a 5 year contract with full control over player recruitment and selection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Levein would be the new Hearts manager on a 5 year contract with full control over player recruitment and selection. Why would the creditors (principally UBIG) accept 25p in the pound when the club is sitting on a major bit of real estate (Tynecastle) and has just been bought over by a massively wealthy lottery winner? It doesn't really matter because pretty soon your all going to be watching Motorhead provide the half time entertainment as Hearts open the topcatdome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redm Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Hell yeah. I even had a succession of very detailed dreams about it. So rest assured that if I win EuroMillions, you needn't worry about a thing. I have everything in place (in my head) and a whole heap of mighty fine refurb ideas such as replacing the seating with beanbags. The redm revolution. I like that.
