Boycott

[iwasthere1972]

A boycott would do more harm than good so for that reason I'm out.

[Criswell]

I have been on this forum many times being critical of Farmer/Petrie's running of the club and been ridiculed for my opinions by some who just won't see the full picture. I have been concerned for many years now that we seem to be sleepwalking towards disaster, and that moment would appear to looming large at this moment.

I don't come on this forum to be critical, just for the sake of it, or to vent my spleen. I express my opinions and feelings, which I believe many share, in the hope that the club will be aware of the level of dissatisfaction and frustration felt by us in this seemingly endless litany of failure and under-acheivement. A club with our resources should at least be competing at the top end of the league instead of continually languishing at the wrong end or fighting relegation.

I do not favour a boycott and have renewed my ST and will continue to support the club, however we should not let up in giving Farmer/Petrie the message that we demand change and they had better start listening to their paying customers. The toleration of decline is simply not an option!

Tin hat on because I know that there will be people who disagree but enough is enough. We need to get our club back from the hands of Farmer and Petrie. The clubs demise has come about because our owner does not care, he saved us not because this is the club he loves but because of family ties. Other clubs have owners who invest because they want success for the club they love, look at Stewart Milne at Aberdeen at the end of the league cup final in tears and Eddie Thomson at Dundee United as examples. We as season ticket purchasing, merchandise buying consumers of Hibernian FC are feeding Petrie his salary and the only way that these two men will listen is to attack the one thing that they are emotionally attached to, money. If we stop investing they will leave and we can win our club back and bring back the glory days that we sorely deserve. To Farmer I am eternally grateful to you for saving this club but now you are killing it. Enough is enough, the fans must be heard, we must stop investing money and save our club.

Stop investing, then who exactly will? We need action but if we walk away the club is finished. We need to rally round, get the job done and stay in the league and all the questions can wait until after the dust settles. Boycott's are the last thing Hibs need just now.

[Pray4Marc]

**** Hibs. Took 10years off my life this year. I'll not be giving them another 10 years. Rotten to the core.

[IWasThere2016]

Be there for the play-offs but be heard about change also - because if we change nothing, nothing will change. The last 7 year prove this, and STF/RP won't u-turn on how they 'run the business' otherwise they'd have done so before allowing 7 years of rot/dross/decline etc.

What exactly is the boycott for? The players and management haven't performed as they should, simple as that. Petrie has given us the management team that supporters wanted on several occasions. He has also given them money to spend.

You are missing the point. Completely.

RP's role is not to give us the management we want - it is to give us the team we want! Did we want Mowbray? No, but we wanted the team we got!

There is no defence for RP. The clown is guilty of 'leading' this club to this point, and he must go..

Been hearing this drivel for weeks and weeks, we make no difference hibs are beyond help, at least we have a great empty stadium and training complex eh. Couple of years in div1 and we will be selling east mains off to help us break even.

Mr.Petrie always does his wee walk about behind the goals on matchdays.
Wonder what his reaction would be if the place was empty when walking through that door?

I'm boycotting from the end of may until the start of august.

Ron I'm now worried I nearly agree with you, but if there is a few decent away friendlies I'll be there.

Don't see what a boycott is going achieve apart from hurting the club
