'Monkeys go home' - Romanov

Pity me...as part of an ongoing project I am currently lumbered with the task of translating political and economic media reports, as supplied from translation agencies from countries throughout Europe, including Russia, and submitting a comprehensive, intelligible and credible digest. This would be a prime example of the quality of crap that I receive. I swear it warps the structure of the brain worse than drugs. Drugs are better for you.

my condolences mate, that sounds like absolute hell.

hopefully the financial compensation is greater than the mental strain

Vladimir Romanov statement
05.01.2012

"As soon as Hearts moved closer to the third spot the monkeys start to squeal, lie and create conspiracy plots.

I thought I had expressed myself clearly - I am selling the club and I am not going to give any more money away. It is pointless to support show business, not football. Hearts is now living out of its own budget.

Everyone knew, including players, media and SPL that the wages are going to be paid as soon as the money was received for Eggert Jonsson, who was sold last year. But media still tried to create conspiracy plots about the team and managed to get a prompt and unwise decision from the SPL meeting, which the club asked it to postpone until next week in order to get opportunity to pay the wages.

As such I have not cheated anyone. The monkeys tricked the SPL, fans and themselves and showed who is in charge of the football mafia. They will continue to cheat as this is their job.

I am used to their lies. I remember when the fight started between two people at the end of one of our AGMs and all the cameras were there as they were expecting it. Later that episode was covered by all major stations as backdrop of the AGM, trying to portray the club as a mess.

I feel sorry for the poor monkeys. Mowgli is asking to work for the publicity of the Old Firm, that's why they have to lie and tell tall stories.

But there is no future for Scottish football while these media monkeys are in charge. Not just for football, but for the whole country. When people tried to protest in the streets, media turned it into chaos, demonstrating masked instigators and hired gangsters in front of the cameras.

I have nothing to prove. Seven years ago I proved that there was no football, but only show business. When Kaunas threw Rangers out of the competition you switched your TV off to avoid embarrassment. Fear takes away the wisdom.

I am going to reiterate once again - I am not going to gift the club money anymore. The only thing left for the club to do is to develop its own youth and attempt to enlighten people who have been deceived and held as part of a stupid crowd by Mowgli.

The progress is there - Mowgli is under prosecution and in exile. But until they open a zoo for the monkeys and keep them in cages, they will keep jumping on people who are straightforward and not afraid to speak."

I think he's a genius.

I don't think he likes monkeys.

It is official. I got a text about it and had to register on their site to read it. Unreal.

You've registered to the Hearts official site - that makes you an official Jambo

I live in Edinburgh and took a season ticket at Tynecastle one year. Romanov is ****ing nuts. Within 2 months of taking control he promised Hearts supporters he would win the champions league

He has constantly released paranoid press releases, stuck 2 fingers up at the SFA and tried to take on the old firm, allied to that he has had internal revolt with players releasing press statements against him. He has sacked a manager who took the club on a 13 game unbeaten run from the start of the season and chnged manager about as often as you change your pants.

The guy is a ****ing lunatic.

But its been far from dull (the dull bit has been on the pitch).
