Magnoem Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Mad Vlad did an interesting interview to a Lithuanian TV. The chat was about basketball club Žalgiris but of course Vlad ends up talking football nonetheless. Full interview , I'll translate only some parts. ..... The chat goes about budgets being too big in basketball/sport/etc.... VR: When the management goes side by side in one direction you need ten times less. At Hearts our budget is 10 million pounds. They/it (not sure who's that, take a guess) cannot make it to top100 , but I feel I am stronger. They (more clearer now) start fooling themselves - we get three red cards, three penalties in a game. It's their problem because next season I will be stronger. In three years I refused foreigners sold what I could and have young players, but they can not beat my young players. We are third but if we are it's like being a champion for me. ...... - Why do you need Žalgiris (the basketball club) - Good question. I don't buy Žalgiris in the market, not in auction. I make my capital higher and I know the money doesn't go in to air, but in to the club Secondly I have 20 year expierence in sport and I have to realise myself. Sports players have to go somewhere. For example Lithuanians couldn't think of goin to UK four years ago. Now Velička plays in my opponents team and scored four goals in four games. I get only pleasure for this and plus the club gets money. I want all clubs to be on profit. - You are a businessman, you invest time and money, do you think you can make profit? - I already did. In Hearts I made 15 million pounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 As the eternal optimist, I wonder if he is suggesting that if he sold Hearts now the value would be more than it was when he bought it. I realise there is an enormous debt etc. but the realm of finance that these guys deal in is well over my head and they can make a loss seem like a gain. When I lose my minosc ule amounts they are definitely a loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I buy them in Sicily at one cent apiece and transfer them to Malta secretly at four and a half cents apiece in order to get the price of eggs up to seven cents when people come to Malta looking for them." ... "Then you do make a profit for yourself," Yossarian declared. "Of course I do. But it all goes to the syndicate. And everybody has a share. Don't you understand? It's exactly what happens with those plum tomatoes I sell to Colonel Cathcart." "Buy," Yossarian corrected him. "You don't sell plum tomatoes to Colonel Cathcart and Colonel Korn. You buy plum tomatoes from them." "No, sell," Milo corrected Yossarian. "I distribute my plum tomatoes in markets all over Pianosa under an assumed name so that Colonel Cathcart and Colonel Korn can buy them up from me under their assumed names at four cents apiece and sell them back to me the next day at five cents apiece.

sawas Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 - You are a businessman, you invest time and money, do you think you can make profit?- I already did. In Hearts I made 15 million pounds. You beauty Vlad. Can we have a few bob for new players ? he was just telling lies, cos the interview is in Lietuvos rytas Tv, and Lietuvos Rytas is the main rival of ZALGIRIS KAUNAS basketball team. Lietuvos rytas is biges newspaper in Lithuania , they also have their own Tv station and basketball club, so they are using their media to show VLAD as a fool. They are doing the same with every member of Zalgiris Kaunas. Its just like HEARS vs HIBS...just imagine that Hibs have their own biggest newspaper in Scotland.Situation would be the same. Those 2 teams always fight, players are figting during the game , staff are figthing , fans are fighting...so it is normal that journalist tried to show Vlad as a total looser. http://www.15min.lt/gallery/show/Pries_BBL_finala___sirgaliu_susiremimai_ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYZm2uJ2yI0 thats normal in the stands , so if they have their own tv , taht is normal on tv...

If he is speaking in a foreign language which he is crap at then it sheds a slightly different light on some of his nonsense. I could do the same in Germany and probably get the same reaction! So in reality, he is being translated (initially by himself, then others) from Russian > Lithuanian > English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
