Hearts statement

24.06.2011

The Hearts Board of Directors has issued the following statement in relation to outside influences on players and the club.

"What's happening with the club today is not a new thing. For almost 7 years we have been fighting to shield the club from crooks, criminals and thieves. Many of the top players at the club have felt the bitter results of the swindles that have been carried out with them on their own skin. Skacel and Webster have returned to the club after realising where these 'football patriots' have led them.

"Over a short space of time 4 players at our club have been on the wrong end of the law. We note that 3 of them are represented by the same agent - Gary Mackay - who has been so vicious in his attacks against Mr Romanov.

"Taking into account the facts that have been omitted by the media it can be presumed that each of these cases is not a coincidence, but the result of targeted actions of a mafia that wants to manipulate the club and the results.

"Every year Hearts fights to be in the top 3, but even last season in the last 12 games of the season it was almost like someone replaced the team with a different one. Whose fault is that? Players? Manager's? Or it is mafia.

"Stealing players, bad games, problems with the law - all of that on top of record SFA fines. Problems are just shifted to another level.

"Mafia are dragging kids into the crime, in order to blackmail and profit on them. It is not possible to separate these people from pedophiles, and you don't need to do that. Each year we are forced to fight against these maniacs harder and harder. We are standing in their way not letting them manipulate the game of football in the way they want. As such they undermine us in every possible way they can.

"The task of the club is to tear these kids out of hands of criminals."

That's sort of what I thought after reading it :thumbup:

I think one of their players has just been done for kiddie fiddling or something.

Not quite fiddling.

HEARTS player Craig Thomson has been arrested on charges of sending lewd pictures of himself to young girls.

The 19-year-old defender was questioned by detectives after the teenage girls' parents found explicit photos on a home computer.

Thomson is alleged to have been chatting with the girls on the internet and is understood to have been unaware that they were underage.

Police visited Thomson at his Edinburgh home and removed his computer for forensic examination when the parents made a complaint to them.

Romanov is actually a mentalist. lol

To think he would have bought Liverpool if Hicks and Gillett hadn't beaten him to it. The Scousers got off bloody lightly considering.

Mackay was and maybe still is a legend on Tynecastle so I doubt this will go down well with most Hearts fans.

Not au fait with the politics at Hearts just now so I may be wrong.

"He was commenting on her figure, saying he liked her big chest, what she was wearing and would turn up in places that he knew she was going to be. Nearly every time he was in contact with her he asked her to take her top off."

"He moved on to sending her pictures of himself naked and asking her if she thought he was big. She was a 12-year-old girl, it's disgusting."

The sickened mum added: "He was well aware of how young she was. At one point he asked her how old she was now and when she told him she had turned 13, he said to her 'I knew that' before saying what he wanted to do to her. It is disgusting".

"He also invited her to come to his house for a sleepover, as long as she promised to walk around in her underwear. He tried to take her on drives and I'm just so relieved she didn't go with him. I dread to think what might have happened."

"I used to see him around all the time, he was everywhere. I would always put my head down or put sunglasses on to try and avoid him. I just hated seeing him."

"I used to shake when I did. He was always commenting on what I was wearing if I saw him. One time he drove past and waved and then later he asked if I was still wearing the leggings I had on earlier. So I'd wear things that wouldn't get his attention."

Absolutely sick, he should be locked up.

Thomson is now suspended indefinitely:

Hearts suspend sex offender Craig Thomson

Page last updated at12:26 GMT, Tuesday, 28 June 2011 13:26 UK

Hearts have suspended Craig Thomson after he was placed on a sex offenders list for inappropriate conduct toward underage girls on the internet.

The club announced the decision on Tuesday, a day after saying it was backing the Scotland Under-21 defender.

Thomson, 20, pleaded guilty to "lewd, libidinous and indecent behaviour," and was placed on the sex offenders list for five years and fined £4,000.

The club's initial backing of Thomson was widely criticised.

The official supporters' club of the Scottish Premier League outfit, charity Children's 1st and Scottish lawmakers were among those calling for Hearts to take action against the player.

And Hearts' water sponsor cancelled its contract with the club on Monday.

A very brief statement on the Hearts website announced Thomson's suspension and said there would be no further comment.

Anne Houston, chief executive of Children 1st, said on Tuesday: "The reason we got involved in this issue was because of our longstanding commitment to protecting children and ensuring they are safe and secure.

"We would maintain that there is no place in our society for public role models who have been convicted of sexual offences against children, no matter what other talents they might have.

"In recent years, Children 1st has worked closely with sports governing bodies, including the SFA, to help them train volunteer coaches on keeping children safe and allowing them to have fun in sport.

"But professional sports organisations also have responsibilities in this area. Everyone at a football club who has contact with children and young people should be trained on child protection procedures."

Lothian police say there are currently no fresh investigations into newspaper allegations against Thomson.

But BBC Scotland believes the club is conducting its own internal investigation into the allegations.

A police spokesman said: "Lothian and Borders Police are not currently carrying out any further investigations into a 20-year-old man who was convicted for sexual offences in Midlothian.

"If however, any new evidence is brought to our attention, it will be investigated thoroughly and the appropriate action will be taken.

"We would actively encourage any victim of crime to come forward to police immediately or alternatively to report the crime via Crimestoppers in complete anonymity."

The Scottish press has, understandably, monstered him this week.

No way he will ever set foot on a pitch up here as a professional again.

He'll have to go abroad or pack it in...
