Hearts Auction

**hibbycraig** · 25-06-2017 12:06 PM

A hearts friend of mine is at the auction today. Steven Pressley paid £425 for a turnstile. Some guy just paid £2k for a bath. One of the old style hand painted signs sold for over £2.5k.

They should just go the whole hog and shake them upside down by the ankles on the way out.

**Brooster** · 25-06-2017 12:14 PM

Lets face it, if this proves anything its that the commonly held view that your average Hertz fan tends to be from the more affluent areas of Edinburgh than your average Hibs fan is probably true ............ I cant imagine many Hibs fans with enough disposable income that they can afford to chuck away over 2 grand on absolute sheeeoit like that

**kevo1875** · 25-06-2017 12:33 PM

It's what all the big clubs do, sell bits of tat to deluded fans and call them a historical momento lol...two grand for an old bath ha ha , wonder if u can still see the pinch bar marks on it from trying to get nades ass out of it..idiots

Brilliant

Sound like Presley bought the only thing worth having and at a reasonable price.

***KeithTheHibby*** · 25-06-2017 02:09 PM

Some ****ing moron on my fb just bought a large pane of glass for £250. Hope the **** breaks it on the way home. Twat.

**LeithSqualk** · 25-06-2017 03:03 PM

Any accountants able to say if they will have to take the VAT off what was raised?

***SouthMoroccoStu*** · 25-06-2017 03:12 PM

It's the tat on offer and the desparation to raise funds that amuses me most

I like to think if we were to sell of the contents of a stand which is over 100 years old it would be for a charity or 2 - Dnipro and Kicks for Kids spring to mind

They are the charity

**hibbycraig** · 25-06-2017 03:17 PM

They ended up getting 60k. Most expensive thing was that owl. Some idiot paid £4100 for it. Haha

To be fair, it's never been used.

**Pretty Boy** · 25-06-2017 03:25 PM

Did anyone buy the shelf for the league cup in the trophy cabinet? Unused in half a century.

**Morganleith** · 25-06-2017 04:21 PM

Raised over £60k apparently. The owl went for over £4K ffs.
suppose it's been worthwhile for them for crap that would of gone to the tip

**Sioux** · 25-06-2017 04:51 PM

I wonder why they didn't make the same effort to raise money to fund their creditors when in admin. in fact I don't wonder - its probably something to do with morals. ****ers

Maybe the buyer thinks it's a tattie planter.

**Thecat23** · 25-06-2017 05:15 PM

As much as it's a red face they are now £60k better off.

Closer to the truth

***NORTHERNHIBBY*** · 25-06-2017 05:20 PM

Bet they insisted on cash up front just in case.

***Col2*** · 25-06-2017 05:21 PM

So that's them at £360k against a target of £1m.

Initiatives dried up now.

Next it will be more begging cash cows

Has the symbolic emptying of the cow taken place yet though?

Yeah but they've nothing left to pawn and they're still a billion miles away from covering the shortfall.

As has been mentioned the initiatives are beginning to dry up, only so many cakes you can bake and faces to paint. They'll be doing sponsored walks and having jumble sales next.

They really are an embarrassment.
