I don’t believe this info for a moment. We are not in good shape for the season ahead. 

Get them in early he said.....that’s worked out well

Just a thought, if the money in the company account that owned Hibs belongs to that company and RG did not buy that company, how would the cash in that company transfer to the new company that RG set up?

No loan yet.... but Hecky wants a striker and he’s spent the biscuit tin cash, so loan incoming two days after he took out security on their stadium. Get the pop corn out this is going to be fun to watch!

 

 

 

I think/hope the guy is going to be another Craig Whyte. He's no even got a submarine, That should be enough to set alarm bells ringing. I hope this is the end of hibs. I ****ing hate them.

[Haringshairband]

Looking forward to seeing the cracked Hibs badge and the "Hibs in Turmoil" headlines. It might be a few years down the line but it's a nice thought.

A genuine surprise that Peruvian Ron isn't an altruistic billionaire, here to pump millions into Hibs to make them the dominant force in Scottish football.

I’ve just spotted him at Edinburgh airport throwing a case of money into a flight bound for Peru.

Gladly see them die, they hate us and I cant think of no better feeling than watching their demise announced on Sky Sports while cracking open a fresh tinny.

I used to be deluded and i liked the Edinburgh rivalry more than i could stand the Old Firm. I used to have an "Edinburgh first" attitude.

 

See now, i'd watch the club get wiped off the face of the Earth and I'd enjoy it. I'd feast off their rage for the rest of my life.

 

Fans cannae even get together and sort their club out like we did.

 

( im not bitter at all)

 

This.

 

They were murdered on that glorious day in May. 

 

They have never and will never get over it.

 

Humiliated in the biggest Edinburgh derby ever, live, around the world.

 

It was the day that H1b5 banter turned poisonous. From that day onward it’s been pure hatred, whereas we see them as an annoying wee brother that we enjoy slapping at every opportunity.

 

I have copious amounts of popcorn in the kitchen ready to go. The demise will be immense.

Exactly, it used to be a great rivalry and now they cant handle it! 

 

Annoying wee brother analogy is spot on!

 

Here's hoping it goes upside down for them!

It doesn't paint a pretty picture for that lot, especially when you take into account the lack of funds been made available to them by Gordon to invest in the first team, and them being asked to pony up lol 

[Coburg Hearts]

Over on hibs.net they're under the impression that the reason we are getting so many players in is because of the FOH money. As they are raising £20,000 a month from their HSL scheme (or were), they are all mostly pissed off about the situation they're in.

Wait until it dawns on them that not a penny from FOH funds has been used to  bring in players, and then wait until it further dawns on them what players  we might be capable of bringing in once we have paid back Ann and the FOH money is ours to spend as we like*.

If only someone could go on their forum and explain the facts of life to them. 😊

*  I know it's not quite as simple as that, but they cretins are not to know that. Haha

if this is true the club owes us an explation in detail as to just wtf has happened to our cashflow. season tickets, walkups, mcginn fee and promotion bonus, europa money, wages freed from 11 departing and whatever else ive forgotten. truth time hibs!!

 

 

eastcoasthibby 03:56 PM Yesterday

If this is true then it's a shambles ...we released or got rid of so many but I supposed some will have needed pay offs but if we have spent a bundle on fees and wages for what we have brought in then someone needs to be accountable for it ... Fraser Murray and Sean Mackie have been drafted into the squad as has Josh Campbell and it seems like Ben Stirling so these guys alone will be on pretty low wages. The Gray and McGregor deals surely won't have any cash up front, so that leaves all the income from last seasons additional attendances and McGinn money plus this year's ST' s have gone on James, Doidge, Allan, Newell, Maxwell, Jackson and Vela even giving them 3k per week only equates to just over 1.1 million and Doidges fee up to 1.4 million. Is this all weather pitch at HTC coming out the budget just now ? And have we brought in anymore coaches or physics or sports science people ? There just seems to be a massive void !!! 
It's typical Hibs let's not explain or be open with the fans we will just keep asking them to have blind faith and trust ...the writing is on the wall the players we have aren't good enough to have us challenge for anything ..we are at least a strong central midfielder and out and out box playing centre forward short and the money needs to come out of the box under the table to pay for them. If we are depending on Ollie Shaw's wage paying for a replacement centre forward then let's not hold our breathe cos he won't be on much !! 
Think it makes it worse when we also see our city neighbours bringing in bodies on decent wages no doubt and we are operating like Teams that have crowds of 3-4 K per week who seem to be able find gems every season to do a job for them.

 

 

The Captain.... 04:02 PM Yesterday 

What the actual **** is going on at Hibs at the moment...****ed up a sponsor..****ed up introducing a new turnstile system then blame fans..****ed up testing new ticket purchase and now told we're all spent up on transfers when stevie wonder could see we are woefully short in quality. Then to add insult to injury a humiliating horsing by the hun.

What a time to be alive.

This is shaping up to look like a relegation dogfight style season for me. I don’t see it nor feel confident in us this season at all fir the minute. Hope I’m wrong though.

 

Hakim Sar 04:29 PM Yesterday 

So either Heck has spent the budget on a complete bust of a transfer window, the club is bluffing or the club is being dishonest about our financial health. This is 4 weeks after a new owner coming in with investment. Bricks and mortar is nice, community stuff is nice, but the first team ALWAYS comes first.

Hibs cannot afford another Calderwood, Fenlon, Butcher era. I can't stress that enough.

Wonder who approached them and what the offer was.

 

Are they really in a situation where they are able to turn down money...? I have my doubts!

From the home page you can make charitable donations for good causes. 

 

This money will then be given to Hibs by way of sponsorship to help run the club.
