Even the most die hard Hibby would be hard pressed to be more negative about our club. It's the same with Scotland some people seem to revel in our misfortune.

I understand the emotional argument for an independent Scotland but can't see any evidence it would be a success. Aside from the financial issues I have a real problem with the SNP'S tendency to centralise everything.

Seymour M Hersh Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 That would enable me to vote but I don't see how you could justify it tbh and I don't see that happening. It certainly affects us as it could mean us suddenly becoming foreigners in our own (wider) country. Very easily as as a quid pro quo to the inevitable demand from the SNP that all EU folk living in Scotland temporarily or otherwise get to vote along with school children.
