Cruyff Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Peruvian Craig Whyte Hope they end up the same way as Rangers. They certainly wouldn't be allowed to keep their shoddy history either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex member of the SaS Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Hibs.net is a real hoot. Each trying to out do each other in making out this is all fine. Right thing to do and how other clubs are really worse off then them ( honest ). Why are other clubs getting new players and yet they had reserves at last accounts but are not signing anyone. One guy trying to work out why they voted to end the league, when they had a chance to gain a place on St J costing them £130K. With fans threatening to return season books and not renewing would that have cost them more than £130 K? They really did think Ron the Conn was going to splash millions on them making them challengers for the top spot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What wasn't a prudent move was going for deferrals rather than cuts a few months ago. It's never too late to do the right thing though. Other fans and the media slagged us off for what was a sensible approach. They are a few months late, probably with reality biting and with the illusion of "we'll be ok" truly shattered.

Yes, but they somehow didn't work out that zero income would eat up what cash they had. And months after other clubs worked it out they suddenly realised that they better cut costs to survive. Nobody will call them out for it as their CEO isn't Ann Budge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Un-feckin-believable. More so after all the self congratulating about deferring being the right way, indeed, the Hibs way, to do it. Never burnt a spoon before.

Indeed, he will be looking for a return on his investment. As far as I know they still haven’t released last years accounts which were due by April but they were given an months extension I think.
