The majority of the board with Sir Tom and Rods influence will vote as Petrie wishes. Good luck the next time we want to deal with Celtic mind. Petrie v Lawwell will be interesting.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I'm not that fussed about title stripping (although I've been convinced that it if it is possible - a big if - then it would be necessary/ desirable).
Why is Andrew Dickson still employed at the SFA?
What was Campbell Ogilvie's role in it all?
What were other clubs involved in? Rangers have failed to co-operate with previous enquiries but at least they have bared their souls to an extent. What have all the clubs that have been into administration (including our own) done to smarten up their act and ensure it doesn't happen again?
What happens if Rangers beat Hibs to a European place on goal difference this season, but fail to comply with FFP rules? How far will the SFA/ SPFL be allowed to bend the rules to ensure they get into Europe, to ensure Rangers get more cash (assuming they don't get pumped out in early July by some dildos from Luxembourg) to compete more strongly in Scottish football's showpiece fixture?
These things matter much more to me than title stripping. That's for Celtic to worry about.

Shocking statement. Did Rod not once say "integrity is beyond purchase"?

That statement is not good reading and the Hibernian Board should hold their heads in shame. Hiding behind so-called legal advice where the issue raised by Celtic is the need for an enquiry into the conduct of the SFA.
I can see a massive backlash over this from Hibernian fans and I fear the feel good factor is about to be blasted away.
100% Petrie is behind this and I'd question the how unanimous this decision was - some arm twisting behind the scenes I reckon.

Others have the drive and fortitude to press for change where injustice is clear. The progressives.

Extremely disappointed by the statement from the board. However, the board members are merely custodians of the Club, they are not the actual club itself. My commitment is entirely to Hibernian FC, not the board. I'm old enough to have seen the back of many Hibs board members over the years, some are remembered with affection, others definitely not. The supporters are the constants of football clubs, not the directors.

Truly pathetic! I'm glad I held back from buying season tix, our so called board, you have lost my business!

Ask yourself why there is only one club (allegedly) who wants to take this further?
Could it be that there is no point as there would be no satisfactory outcome?
I think thats what the statement says.

This will end up being a Celtic v The Rangers argument which will detract from the real issues and the chronic need for change in leadership at both the SFA and SPFL. It's shades of Fergus McCann v Jim Farry in the 90's (as in it will become a battle of personalities).
I couldn't care less as it won't even change my opinion of Rangers and The Rangers - they are Scotland's Shame and I don't care about how many titles they have or don't have - all I know and all I care about is that I don't like them and never will. I do however have unconditional love for Hibernian FC

Rangers have been punished by having four years in the wilderness and almost guaranteeing they'll watch Celtic get 10 in a row.
Title stripping legally isn't an option. What more do people want?

So they want us to consider
We either continue to spend significant sums of money and huge reserves of time and energy to challenge already lengthy and detailed legal advice
so for us they paint a simple choice - invest in the above or the team and the future. After this transfer window it's an interesting dilemma to throw in supporters direction. Does this equate to a choice of increased revenues going to legal fees or keeping/attracting key players in time like McGinn, Stokes and Hendo...

I'm guessing the whole spectrum of opinion has somehow been passed on, ranging from there's some who want the legal review, through titles being stripped and right up to let's move on leaving the tainted titles out there and the guys who allowed our game to be rigged to stay there and do who knows what next?
