Think its a distraction that isn't going anywhere and I'm not sure theres any real intention or expectation that it will happen. I wouldn't be surprised if its Hearts way of showing that reconstruction talks were never being taken seriously but basically a bribe would.
What school did he go to?
So the SPFL can attract investment from a billionaire faster than Rangers. Is there anything they can't do with Rangers?

Interesting take on the OP
Well I say interesting...
What's the story? Is this in the form of a loan or is it in return for advertising?

Maybe it's a replacement for a sponsor as we don't actually have one

Doncaster must be loving the bail out opportunity if true.
Sorry but take the money.
He's almost certainly not a billionaire but he seems t9 have access to funds.
He has channelled up to £10m into Hearts. Who knows where it came from.
If he can put a similar sum into Scottish football without conditions just to give his ego a boost then we should relieve the daftie of his cash.

Yeah see this is what I am wondering - what business man is going to put a decent sum of money into Scottish football just to be nice.
I may be being pessimistic here but you don't amass that money without having some business nous.
Yes it may be a financial hit now but I suspect it is either a flagship loss to garner attention for a profitable venture or it is a step towards a position of authority

should we aye?
"aww ma hearts"
"awww ma wee budgie"
thats you btw
As much as I can agree that reconstruction just to suit Hearts is a bad idea, I don't think many businesses of any kind never mind football clubs have a business model designed to get them through a pandemic.
If they go under it will be partly their fault for not being good enough in the games they got to play but also because circumstances made it unavoidable.
I don't blame them for going through every avenue available to them.
want the league as strong as possible, got United coming up and I don't want to lose Hearts
the best away game and a venue that your rivals can drop points at
