Loan Moves From FBK Kaunas
Loan moves from Romanov's Lithuanian club FBK Kaunas to Hearts have proved controversial in Scottish football. The comparatively large number of such loans is seen by some as a bending of the loan transfer rules. Loan transfers from clubs outside Scotland are automatically exempt from the limitation on signing players on loan. Reaction to the influx of Lithuanian players amongst Hearts supporters has been mixed, with several being booed for perceived poor performance and the perception that they receive preferential treatment. In contrast, others such as Andrius Velička (Hearts top scorer in 2006-07) and Marius Žaliūkas became established important first team players.

Famous quotes containing the words loan and/or moves:
“Slight was the thing I bought,
Small was the debt I thought,
Poor was the loan at best—
God! but the interest!”
—Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872–1906)
“Denotation by means of sounds and markings is a remarkable abstraction. Three letters designate God for me; several lines a million things. How easy becomes the manipulation of the universe here, how evident the concentration of the intellectual world! Language is the dynamics of the spiritual realm. One word of command moves armies; the word liberty entire nations.”
—Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
