Beast Boy Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 1 hour ago, Coburg Hearts said: I know that the HSL scheme (aka as a ponzi) is of no concern to lots of Jambos, and that's fair enough, but I like to keep tabs on how it is faring, or otherwise. Here is a reply from their boss-man to a Lord Bunberry. Originally Posted by lord bunberry My money comes off every month, but to be honest I’ve lost interest in the whole enterprise. It’s been badly promoted and badly run since the very beginning. It was a good idea that has failed to capture the imagination of the fans. Hearts version has been hugely popular due to the fact that they needed to save their club. Aberdeen didn’t have that pressing issue, but they’ve managed to make their scheme hugely popular. We’ve had amateur videos from one of the proclaimers and prize draws to win tickets to European games. I’ll keep up my donations but I really think there needs to be a new scheme launched that is more professional and something that matches the ones our rivals are running. Lord Burnberry Thank you for your comments and we do of course respect your opinion. We do look at our rival schemes to see if we can learn things to help us improve but they both pose dilemmas for us : Hearts - their scheme was borne out of crisis and for their fans literally do or die. The other point to make is that their scheme supports majority fan ownership. We have no sense that Hibs fans have any appetite for this and indeed the recent transaction removes that possibility. Indeed we have had a couple of new Members join us as a result of this. Aberdeen - while this on the face of looks like a good scheme we think if we adopted this approach we would lose Members. At the moment our Members who contribute , lets say £10 per month, know that nearly all of that goes to it's intended use ( last year our expenses were negligible). If we proposed to change that so that only 50p in the £1 would go in accordance with our Members intentions we are not sure what our Members would think. See attached article https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/fp/...7eea_story__4/ We are looking at making changes as soon as we get this transitional exercise out of the way. I love how much it sticks in their craw that FoH is so successful. They just can not admit it, go out of their way to try and play down its significance... whilst stealthily and unsuccessfully trying to copy it. Oh the dilemma! Wonder how their shirt with the pledgers’ names on it is coming along? I’ve said this before, a few times now, and I will say it again: Ron Gordon will force them to turn HSL in to a repayment vehicle to fund the projects he wants to embark upon. Starting with their training centre. Gordon will front the money to pay for the indoor training pitch, and HSL will be turned in to the vehicle for the fans to pony up, and pay him back... Probably with interest. It’s a good job he has taken out floating charges on all of their property to protect his investment. 🐴⬆️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They honestly think that when the handover takes place the fans will be picking the team, sacking the manager, etc etc., and that it will all collapse around us. That is their comfort blanket. (in their Hearts i'm sure they know that's a load of crap) PS I hope and think you'll be right about our Ron........soon to be Ron the Con.

Ensures he gets full control of the club by shutting down their Mickey Mouse fan ownership scheme! Gets security on everything hibs!
