    John McGlynn has not been paid this month, with the Hearts boss admitting it "might not be the last" time he would have to address the issue.

    The Tynecastle manager joins another member of the club's coaching staff and six players in not receiving wages.

    "It doesn't concern me, really," McGlynn said. "Everybody's been paid in the past and I'm expecting to be paid in the near future.

    "There's money due to come in which will certainly take that issue away."

    Hearts' staff were due to be paid their salaries on Monday.

    All 12 top-flight clubs have still to receive about £300,000 each from the the SPL.

    This, along with some other moneys due to the Edinburgh outfit, is being blamed for the latest wage problem.

    "The money's coming in from a very credible source; it's not like we don't think the money's not going to come in," explained McGlynn.

    "It's not like the last time when we were waiting on the money to come from Lithuania [where majority shareholder Vladimir Romanov is based].

    "I'm not that worried. My wife works, so I'm all right."

    On Wednesday, a top flight chairman told BBC Scotland that rival clubs believe Hearts should not be able to add to their squad while salaries remain unpaid.

    Earlier this week, Hearts said in a website statement that a "vast majority of its 45-man squad" had been paid their salaries in full and that those who had not "will be paid shortly".

    The league governing body last season charged the club "with failing to behave with the utmost good faith to the SPL" after they were repeatedly late in paying their players.

    It's their fault. Luckily they're not around any more to cause such financial troubles.

    We're gonna be back there in a few seasons, perhaps not if they can't fork out £3m odd to their clubs

    Yes The Rangers will refuse promotion i'm sure, after all everyone in the SPL hates Rangers and is therefore a "Bigot".

    No I didn't say that laddy, I'm saying the SPL may not be around by the time we get back up.

    And why would that be Medro? Do you think the SPL is now financially worse off minus a club that owed in excess of £100m?

    Bizarre logic if ever I've seen it.

    The SPL is worse off financially. It'll survive just fine though, so dinny panic.

    Sorry, did the SPL regularly miss payment to all the clubs in the league when we were in it?

    It was delayed because they were haggling over signing contracts with TV and sponsors and **** like that.

    It's a shame for the guys that haven't been paid. They'll just have to do whatever normal junkies do to get their fix of skag and AIDS medicine.

    They should have watched that Ross Kemp. He'd have given them ideas.

    Only because of renegotiation because we were gone from the SPL. Hardly oor fault they took so long striking new deals.
