Hey Wastecoatwilly Hope you don't mind me asking, but why the 'Crown of Aragon' flag for your avatar, are you Catalonian? If so, how do you think the Spanish league will get going again ? Do you think they will get it up and running better than in Scotland? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djchapsticks Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Jesus Christ....I mean, surely there's no other way of dressing this up other than it being the offer of a bribe. A large cash sum being handed over to lower league clubs from third parties with no expectation of repayment. And no written proposal to detail the money handed over. I mean, she should turn up with the money in a briefcase and have done with it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She certainly is a very successful business woman. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zing. Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 (edited) If this money is going to be available no strings attached then surely reconstruction gets binned and the leagues are played as normal? Obviously depends how much these philanthropists are willing to put in but if it’s significant it kills reconstruction stone dead.

the jambo-rocker Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Daft question as I feel like I'm missing something here, but why are league 2 clubs so against 14 now, when a month ago they were collectively all for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wanted permanent change, they also don't like the possibility that 14 has the potential to become 16 if it gets implemented and Brora and Kelty get in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnydun Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 So Budge is saying there's philanthropists standing by to give clubs in the lower leagues millions of pounds. By 'clubs in the lower leagues' she means 'Hearts'. By 'philanthropists' she means 'The Foundation of Hearts' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djchapsticks Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Cockwomble is completely roasting her, FFS. He's now calling her bluff by going 'oh, well if there is no conditions and it's completely above board and altruistic, that's good, let's do it.' I can sense a backtrack coming on. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy groundhopper Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 In almost desperate times,it appears that Budgies bribe means that Hearts are no longer a football club - but are now working as a charity handing out money...mmm lets get a high profile 'tv personality' to do an advert, this is way beyond the loaf of bread feeding thousands. Maybe a tv show 'Spreading the Jam' ps wouldn't want to face Budgie in a divorce case ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
