Him and his Hobo pals were ejaculating in their cornflakes at yet another Hearts in ?dire straits? financial story. It?s worrying of course but I?m gonna let the hobos do all our worrying for us, we know they love our finances. Its been on .net the best part of a week.

Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Mothy they are obsessed with the financial state of our club. It is the ONLY thing and I mean ONLY thing they have over us. I'ts scary mate. That retched little creep 'SirGay' has completely built his world around it. That is all he does, he is not interested in his team at all (suppose you can't blame him for that right enough) and instead has just become more of a Hearts hater than a hibs fan, more to be pittied i suppose but i can't help it... i would love to meet the guy, I'd love to look into his mental-case face and actually ask him about his weird obsession with us... just to see if there is any 'normality' left in the warped little sad-case's desperate carcass. Truly he is a one off... I sometimes wonder if he is that bonkers Macca boy that used to phone in and spout guff on the radio all the time. just think what it says about someone... Building your entire life around something so freakishly obsessive and continually unfulfilling and going to such incredible lengths to try and achieve... well... That is just it really... What has he got to gain from it all? That is what confuses me the most, think about it... If his aim is to convince Hearts fans that the club is going bust then... This is an ultimately unfulfilling task, he knows nothing about our financial postion outside of some warped newspaper stories from the weegia and some frenzied digging into accounts he knows nothing about and even if he was ever to strike it lucky and stumble upon something real, that would have serious implications for our future then... Well if that happened, he would be left with nothing to live for anymore. He has spent so long hating us that he is no longer even a football fan anymore, just a sad wee freak of a stalker. Seriously, for his own happiness and sanity he should give it a rest and try and live his life following a football team and getting passionate about them instead for a change, what a difference it would make to his life.

jamboinglasgow Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 "... A banking insider revealed: "The sums involved are colossal... " "... A football finance source added... " Yeah, yeah... Sources, sources, nice one News of The World, too much p!ss taking of Rangers this week was there? Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn............... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Thats what gets me. For all I know there is no banking insider or football finance source, it is just the NotW journalist desperate to make it sound serious. I mean I can understand giving the banking insider anonymity but why the football finance source? As they say sadly banks sometimes have money laundering they have let slip through, a google search of RBS, HBOS, Lloyds show that this happens. But I dont think it will be as dramatic as the Hibs fans seem to wish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the ONLY thing and I mean ONLY thing they have over us. to me they are desperate for us to go out of business so they try and find these obscure stories to prove we are out of business. Now the question is why do they want us to go out of business? Well for the opposite reason of why I want Hibs to continue. They want the pain to end, the humilation to end. The only way that can happen is if Hearts dont exist And to me that feels me with glee that they are suffering because of us that they want us to exist no more. For me i want Hibs to exist as it brings humour and points for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portobellojambo1 Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 However, crappy journalism aside it might be interesting to find out how this one pans out. Like anything else that happens to UKIO or UBIG it's probably safe at this point to assume that any impact on Hearts will be negligible (for now) but it will be interesting to see how this one pans out. Vaguely interesting, that is... I think the one thing that may work in Ukio Bankas favour is possiby the banking system in Lithuania redm, which isn't as tight as in other parts of the world. I don't think there is any doubt the basis of the story is correct, i.e. money was being laundered through the bank by a number of sources, however, all that may happen is they are told to be more stringent in their procedures, carry out more investigations of both existing and new business clients etc. Impact on Hearts, minimal if any, but if such stories keep certain people down Leith way happy, then so be it. I've been more interested in reading stories on the internet today about the Edinburgh tram project now being scrapped, but maybe that just interests me more.

ROMANOV FAN CLUB Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 It really is hard to believe that there are editors who actually accept this kind of work from their staff, was this written by Neil while on work experience at the newspaper in The Inbetweeners Is this the same as we are about to fold because 3 years ago Ukio Bankas was due to pay back a ?150 million loan to another finance house in Europe Is it cause the Glasgow media have never understood why a Lithuanian buisness man would buy Hearts Well here's a reason for you, think about this in your offices at the Weegieland HQ as you invent the next Romanov saga Ukio Bankas as in your words was a boutique bank not like our ?10 billion a year shear profit banks in the UK, that are now insolvent and racking up debts of hundreds of millions per year as Ukio Bankas still produces profits year on year, Stop and think about every article you have wrote and every time you have mentioned Ukio Bankas and count up the costs in terms of advertising and then count up how many times you have mentioned every other SPL clubs sponsors put together And when you see these facts know this EVERY HEARTS FAN THANKS YOU for making our club the most profitable and publicised shirt sponsorship deal in World Football, Just think about how many people said "who are they" 5 years ago and think how many people in Europe now know who Ukio Bankas are infact sure Vlad the great one himself will Thank You to the very bottom of his heart for making Ukio Bankas a household name And finally still the only board in Scotland who don't take a wage as UBIG pays it for us Yes I think its time for the old Vladimir Romanov song to come back just to get it right up the weegie press Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac_fae_Gillie Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 No real suprise,lot of Russia and other East europeons got huge amounts of cash they don't want traced back. Some will be direct criminal groups and others good old tax dogding business deals both of which happen to other banks too. Only bad here is the percent of business this reflects at the bank.But for a Lithania bank to be used by these gangs cant be a surprise especailly if its trying to branch out into the west as it offers these criminals access from the west. Only few months ago UK banks stopped accepting 500euro notes as 90% "YES 90percent" are figured to be in the hands of criminals(like a pub wouldn't give you change of that).Just shows the huge amounts these people have got to play with...

The Gasman Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Or it could be that the laws in Lithuanian banking are not good enough and being so the bank was oblivious to where the deposits came from ? . Am I not right in saying that UKIO Bank has been vetted (and passed "fit") by the Bank of England, to allow it to operate in the UK? While no bank could ever guarentee that they never touched any "dirty" money, it may be they can demonstrate that they've taken all reasonable precautions, therefore no blame is attached. Alternatively, an interpretation of the article could even be that it is the bank that is identifying, and reporting, these dodgy transactions. With the current focus on banking standards I would find it difficult to believe UKIO was still allowed to trade if they have been in the wrong since January 2009.

All very scintilating stuff... Now I just need someone who knows what all this means to explain it to me! YOO-HOO SIRGAY!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The People's Chimp Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Therefore this would have no effect on HMFC whatsoever. If a company banks with a certain bank and that bank is found to be involved in shady dealings (although whether thats the case is not clear) then the company is in no way responsible. That's not really true though is it, the whole "no effect on hearts whatsoever" line. I've got no idea about the veracity or otherwise of these claims, but lets put them aside as there's no point in debating that when the main source is the NOTW i.e. a load of tripe. But to say these things wouldn't have an effect on hearts if they are true is just naive. If true, that spells very bad news for what is basically UBIG's main raison d'etre, i.e. UKIO and that in turn spells bad news for Romanov. If UKIO are in trouble, then by extension Romanov will have some problems. Anything which is bad news for UKIO and Romanov will have an effect on Hearts.

But it would appear that UKIO are not even getting investigated but have offered their accounts up to be checked by the relevant authorities... At least that is what i think it is saying... No?

Perhaps if they take NOTW to court for libel then they will uncover SirGay as the stukachi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Another evil plot uncovered and halted by SirGay and his crack team of Hobo crime-fighters!! And UKIO would have gotten away with it, if it hadn't been for those pesky Hobos!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
