Or it took a week for Spartans to formally withdraw from the agreement having gone to the press about it. Seems consistent with how we operate - release things when they are finalised.

Spartans handed in their notice long before the Evening News got the story. Originally Posted by Radium

Whereas it only took you 15 minutes to have a pop at Hibs. Originally Posted by Ozyhibby

I'm sorry but if we are all about improved communication with the fans, it can't just be the good news. They could have explained the differences in approach, the clubs plan going forward etc. Originally Posted by flash

You know things are looking up when even the moaners are struggling to come up with something decent to slate the club on.

Perhaps they felt it better to keep their own counsel on this? You've told one side, I am sure there are others and maybe they didn't feel it was appropriate to speak badly of anyone at Spartans. Originally Posted by Ozyhibby

That's the thing for me. Getting into a slanging match through the media wouldn't help us. Originally Posted by Andy74

Exactly. Nothing further needs to be said. Beating Hibs or Spartans up over this is pretty pointless. A business arrangement didn't work out, it happens. Originally Posted by Andy74

You'll probably find that most fans don't give two hoots about communication on stuff like this. I don't want the club releasing statements every time something changes in its operations. Originally Posted by Ozyhibby

Edit: That'll teach me to read the entire thread. A fair number of folk beat me to the same point.

Official notice from the club is good enough for me, anything else is hearsay, it doesn't have to be instantaneous just to satisfy the rumour mill.

It seems to me Ozy that you cant wait to put the boot in to Hibs over any / everything.
Given your affinity with Spartans this particular episode must have had you sharpening your studs with gusto.
Time to give it a rest?

That's just not true, I praise the club when I think it's merited. Originally Posted by BSEJVT

I think it just seems to you that I'm criticising the club a lot because it has been so poorly run that we are now spending a 2nd season in the Championship. Believe me, when that is fixed I will be as positive as anyone on here.
Edit:- maybe not as positive as Baldy Foghorn.

It's churlish however not to mention any of the good things that have happened since then.
It seems you have no difficulty finding and highlighting the bad but no interest or desire to highlight the good?
Is it the case that until we return to the SPL that as far as you are concerned everything is bad?
That's your prerogative if it is, but people are tiring of hearing how **** the club is, when it seems to many that they are now doing most things very well

To be fair the club seems to produce a constant stream of information these days.

And apologies for caring how the club looks to the outside world.

The outside world does not really give a flying one about such a trivial thing - I's be surprised doubt more than a few hundred people even knew about the initiative in the first place. Originally Posted by Ozyhibby

A bit perplexed here. Poster worries about how this, non 1st team matter makes Hibs to the outside world, outside world more or less oblivious to the setup in the first place.
Everyone moves on.

Anyone know if we will continue to use Ainslie park for development games? I presume this is unaffected with the termination of the other contract?

Why do we not use EM? Is it because there is no stand at the 4G pitch? Originally Posted by bigwheel

Think the rules state there needs to be a stand for development games. Originally Posted by 3pm

Whatever comes from all this, I think Hibs need a base in Edinburgh for bringing young kids into training. Tranent is just too far out for some parents.
