Don’t bet, tardy payers and immersed in our culture

1179

Quick question for you.  Which Scottish team has won their last four home games, scoring 13 goals in the process?  St Mirren are on a run of form at home.  One of those wins was against Second Division opposition, but remember, this season, Second Division teams are on a par with AC Milan in the early 90s.

Ross County scored four at St Mirren Park but St Mirren scored five, while Hearts were despatched 2-0.  This is a team with good home form who kept their squad in place over the international break.  My best advice to you is to avoid betting on this one.

Many clubs have trouble paying their bills but the problem with Hearts and their regular tardiness when it comes to wages, evident again this month, appears to be different.  Hearts cash balances will have peaked weeks, possibly months, ago.  From now on they will be eating into ‘reserves’, or more likely, accruing additional debt at their owner’s bank.  The club have been here many times before and Vlad has dipped into the equivalent of his commercial pocket to avoid an insolvency event but I’ve always found it curious why he didn’t do so on time.  It’s not as though anyone can be surprised pay day is coming.

As such, there appears to be a degree of control over late payment.  The money is always provided but not before pain is passed down from owner to earners, which is a bit curious.

For all his faults, and they are many, Romanov and other shareholders in Ukio Bankas have ‘invested’ countless millions in Hearts, money they are unlikely to get back with the residential property market so depressed.  They have also not exposed the club to outrageous fortune – the overwhelming majority of debt is owed to the bank itself, balances at HMRC and other creditors are low, and they pay their football debts.  This means that if Hearts go into administration, the route back through a CVA would be clear.  The only serious losers would be staff made redundant, while Ukio would face a write-off, perhaps already acknowledged internally.

I was surprised at the news Danny McGrain was appointed first team coach yesterday but also delighted.  Danny’s was not a name mentioned for the position when Alan Thompson left the club but he is immersed in the fabric and culture of our club.  ‘In the days of changing ways’ a strong thread of continuity is an invaluable asset in ensuring the new generations acquire the important elements of our identity.

We are a club in touch with all that is important.

    Good luck to Celtic Soul Brother’s oldest (?) son who is refereeing his biggest game of his career to date later today. Manchester Utd Reserves beckons.

     

     

    Lets hope he quickly rises through the ranks and then CSB gets him imported up here :0)

    Thanks CRC for the mention-it is the youngest son(16) and he is on the line-kick off 10.30am at Carrington so we should be back in time to watch The Bhoys Vs St. Mirren on the box!

  2. If there is an actual DAY that 140 years of thems is finished then yes I will have a cigar and maybe a small Rioja but is that it, let MSM and sevco and the world know that they are dead because I am daily fed absolute toss that they are still alive. I want fireworks over Iborks.

    do you remember phoenix from the flames on Skinner baddiel show

     

     

    big Tam was on it…….are you goinf=g to show my goay in the 67 final

     

     

     

    no… are you going to show my goal in the 1970 final no

     

     

     

    what did they show??

  7. A Ceiler Gonof Rust on

    That was a decent first episode of Walking Dead (season 3). One or two of the scenes bore a striking resemblance to the deid heids assembling to get their next pumping by yet another bold fourth tier outfit.

     

     

    Lots of zombies dispatched and, none of them had six fingers?. Nor did thier slayers have a shamrock stitched on thier shirts.

     

     

     

    Should be good, mon the Q.P.

    Howdy,buddy.

     

     

    Just rounding off an excellent fortnight with my family. Battered useless by my niece and nephew at a stupid board game. (The other game was better-I won at that one….)

     

     

    An excellent evening,that one. And an excellent evening on Thursday too.

     

     

    A certain CQNer made an otherwise dull wee toon in Ayrshire into a night to remember.

     

     

    And the next time I meet TALLYBHOY,I’ll be sure to ask him how much I enjoyed myself.

     

     

    PS,should anyone be catching the last train from Troon towards Glasgow-be warned that the last train to Ayr arrives at the same time. Just saying like….

     

     

    Anyway,I’ll be back again around February,and having behaved to everyone’s satisfaction this time,I should be ok for a wee swally/soiree in Ayr if you are available.

    Re Tommy Gemmell-remember that programme-it was the incident when he chased the German(Haller?-the guy that died last week) and kicked him up the a**e!in a WCQ where we needed to beat them to qualify for Mexico-Wee Jinky opened the scoring but we eventually lost 3-2!

     

     

    Good programme too-Frank Skinner though a Baggie has a big liking for Celtic too.

    Icke worked at the BBC, and the link is not one I will read tonight…. it’s very long hehe.

     

     

    Always remember that Icke is fully immersed in the whole conspiracy, he is playing his role meticulously IMO.

     

     

    Ask him questions about his influences. Alice bailey etc.

    I remember posting a link to David Ike’s site on here about a year ago, was ridiculed for it, Icke is this that etc, aye he is/was a dreamer, but for sure, he sniffs them out.

     

     

    His site is a wealth of info.

  16. Allegedly when asked a question I think it was a Mr David “untouchable” Murray replied,

     

     

    I’m stupid duped stop picking on me

    I’ll send you the e-mail.

     

     

    Pinch of salt,etc,but worth a look.

  18. CultsBhoy loves being 1st forever & ever on

    disagree re Danny.

     

     

    For a start Lenny has young, fresh ideas. Danny can provide a useful counter balance –

     

     

    Danny has also remained in the game – he’s not been brought out of a retirement cupboard and been dusted down.

     

     

    Danny has the advantage of knowing Celtic – he is years older than Lenny and so I’m sure will give Lenny his opinion without fear.

     

     

    I see it as a great appointment

  19. I still don’t know what the tax case result means anymore, the Huns are dead so no one is paying the bill. Unless they are chucking Murray in the cells nothing really changes.

  20. Night all.

     

    Marching for our future tomorrow.

     

    George Square at 11.00

     

    Hope they get a step on as game ko at 12.30.

     

    Got to get your priorities right.

    I take everything with a pinch of salt mi amigo, guys like DI get ridiculed for being percieved daft, maybe he is, maybe he’s no, I for sure am not in a position to judge.
