To hibs.net - here is how we're feeling tonight ( Monty sacked )

[Mikey1874]

We've got Blair Spittal AND Andy Halliday playing next week.

 

Choice of match winners.

[Victorian]

16,700?

 

[Gizmo]

I'm struggling to see how they justify that claim, even before St J beat them, but here is the last 10 games form table. 

[Mikey1874]

"Hibs booed off"

 

How can that be? You watched Boyle, Youan, Maolida, Marcondes. You should be singing Sunshine on Leith.

[Mikey1874]

Maolida just watching the winning goal go in was funny. Tried to wrestle the player but ignored the ball. Oops.

The first reply basically says that the aim for them is to be not quite as good as us this season.

They have never listened to a word the chief executive has said.Its not even that he has lied to them they have been repeatedly told they won't be spending millions and that they will be using Bournemouth to loan players in from them and partner clubs.

Made some good points on that thread too including greater dissatisfaction if don't challenge for 3rd, understanding they actually don't have enough money, key people at club aren't delivering, needing key replacement players and some actual realism.

Since Bosman has any team gambling by spending big bucks ever actually worked?

 

Us, Dundee, Gretna and currently Dundee United who are in mountains of debt. Throw in Rangers who gambled on Champions league money. Celtic pre Fergus McCann.

 

The throw high earners for instants success never works out. 
 

The model we have of learning and sustainably will keep us 3rd or 4th for a long time.

 

On the funny side at least some of them get the natural order of things.

I could only read so much and had to exit ! the shit that’s coming out is absolutely astounding.

[Hearts_fan]

[Wee Mikey]

Having now seen St J's winning goal I simply cannae contain masel'.

 

Look at it!!!  ... all 11 h1b5 players in the box.

 

Did not ONE of them track the flight of the ball?

 

Was it a case of every player thinking that someone else was responsible?

 

Anyhoo ... I was saving this 'un up should they suffer a 'Well deserved defeat (geddit?) .... but ... here it is ...

Bet they will be spending money, bet they will.  However it will only show that on their accounts later as they go further in the red. They will to begin to realise, all too late that  all the expenditure was under increased consultancy and Directors fees headings in their P&L.

 

The types of investors these new guys are working on the basis of a sum in but much bigger sums out.

There it is, the post that will never come back to bite them on the arse, I was wondering when it would appear.

 

Can someone of a tech savvy put this link somewhere on an alarm thingammybob so that we can pop it back out in exactly a year……..I think we all know how this will go 😁

Looking forward to the managerial merry go round starting again next week.

I seen this and also had a look at their Ben Kensell thread its a good read if you like comedy.

 

I note a few of them are all in on the BK group having football know how to drive them forward. I am not sure what they are basing this on to be honest. The BK group have got lucky with a manager at Bournemouth who could easily be away next season ( the manager wont stay at Bournemouth for long) this plus the other teams doing badly its been quite a lucky season for yo yo team Bournemouth.  Lorient are doing terrible and on the brink of relegation. Oh wait they do know how to run an ice hockey franchise I am sure that's a transferable skill 🤣

 

Popcorn time next season defo. 

[TexasAndy]

Wonder if the 12 point swing thread is still open 😆

[Gav M]

there's another thread about a foley interview on skysports, talking about Bournemouth and building up infrastructure etc. some of them belive this will be what they are in for and are talking about having to expand the ground because they feel they are at the % mark where growth is possible if there is more space! talk of filling the corners and/or adding upper sections to existing stands!

[martoon]

 

It's sort of cute that Lennon's record vs. Hearts was "good". 

 

3 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats in 9 derbies.

 

That's just breaking even.

 

Naisy has a record of 1 win, 3 draws and a defeat from 5 games against them.

 

That's 5h1te.

I'm convinced we are going to flourish under this new regime, money will become available that we never thought of, players we could never have dreamed of signing being loaned and signed for future stardom in England.

Plus the purchase of better quality players of our own.

Strap in, it's going to be exciting, been a long time since i was this excited about Hibs.

A great strategy, expand the stadium to create even more empty seats.

 

Back in the day when I still had to work for a living, a Hibee colleague of mine would always go on about them having a few hundred bigger capacity than us, like that made them a bigger team.  I'd point out 2 things, Killie have a bigger capacity than both of us, that doesn't make them a bigger team, and our average attendance exceeds Hibs.

According to Wiki, their capacity is just over 18k.

Pretty sure their capacity is lower than that now; they lost quite a bit of the end stand when they put offices in.

Just googled it; now just over 15000

Hibs have always had a bigger capacity than us. It doesn't bother me in the slightest. They don't have much to shout about after all.

[Turkishcap]

Depending on results they may need just one stand for remaining games.

It's kind of nice that Hibs have difficulty accepting their place, I like it, it makes being a Jambo that bit more enjoyable and fun. Imagine if they just accepted their place in our relationship based on the commonly acknowledged ways of judging success e g. trophies, league placings, head to head record. Of course, that will change next season now that their multi million pound investment has them on the cusp of being the Scottish Man.City.

I would take Bair if we lose Shankland. Tbh I would take him even if we keep Shankland. He would a good foil to him, a bit like Simms in terms of physicality.

Whilst I could take the piss and suggest you could fit about half a stand into the windy gaps between their mismatched stands, there's a reason their stands aren't symmetrical. They have limited space they can build into - hence why two stands taper at one corner to protect zoning and building restrictions. 

Obviously, they are not remotely threatening their capacity but they probably can't increase the stadium size as easily as they seem to think, even if it is just conjecture or wishful thinking.

I do like that the hibs fans are expecting annual cash injections from Foley, the same Foley  who said this of his/BK's investment in Hibs: " This is going to be fun. It's not a big investment for us. It's going to be a fun investment.”

The £6 mill for shares was earmarked for "player development & infrastructure". It's intended as a one-off, they are going to be very disappointed if they expect bumper transfer pots. The best  they can hope for is that they get some Bournemouth players capable of getting them out of the bottom six

Maybe but he has a bit of a Connor Salmon feel about him. One season is all he has. 1 in 34 for StJ and 3 in 37 for Vancouver. Certainly wouldn't spend much on him.
