Totally outrageous. Unanimous decision!!! What did our representatives vote? If they voted for this they should resign.

For years we have watched Clubs (Rangers, Hearts, Livingston, Gretna, etc.) involved in financial doping win titles, and then go into administration within 12 months - how can this be tolerated and worse celebrated?
For years the SFA and the SPFL has worked to protect the interest of the 2 largest Clubs when the fans are desperate for expanded leagues?
For years the SFA have run down our game, they are unaccountable, and lack leadership.
As fans of Hibs FC and Scottish Football we cannot accept this stance by our Club..............surely!!?

The trouble with a poll like this is that those fans who feel really strongly on the issue are far more likely to click their mouse and vote than those who fall into the "couldn't care a monkey's category". The end result may therefore not be truly representative of either the Hibs Net community or the Hibernian support as a whole.

It's also possible (likely?) that copies of any legal studies/reports were to hand. If lawyers say that there's no point in proceeding then I'd believe them, especially given that they'd be the only ones to benefit financially win or lose (a Rangers appeal against official sanctions would result in thousands of billable hours on both sides).
As for the decision being unanimous, I for one want want board members, fans' reps or not, to vote with their heads and not their hearts.

Do you really think people like Leanne Dempster and Rod Petrie - the man who coined the "sporting integrity" phrase - would want to stand idly by if there was anything they could do that they felt would have an outcome?

When the reps are appointed, people should be voting for those you trust to represent you, not somebody that comes on here (for example) evrey 5 minutes asking what they should do.

I feel uncomfortable with the " legal "and "financial" terminology being used to argue that there is no case/appetite for a review by the SFA.
The LNS report and the 5 way agreement"fans no nothing about"came after the discovery of side letters.
The side letters prove players where ineligible and as such the SFA had/have the power to enforce there own rules regarding this matter.
The simple question to the SFA is why couldn't/can't you enforce your own rules/punishment for legal reasons.
my guess is the 5 way agreement would be laughed out of court,if this is the mechanism used to promise no more sanctions on rangers?
I don't agree with the boards statement.

So we want an enquiry - why? Getting an enquiry is no kind of result that I can see.
Just the start of another 1300+ page thread like the Rangers meltdown one.
And the final outcome? Will there be an admission of incompetence by the SFA or some kind of unenforceable punishment meted on old Rangers? Get real.
Why this forum seems so fully focussed on this issue beats me - and people not attending on Sat? Some people seem to be more anti-Rangers than they are pro-Hibs.

I'm past caring. Even if there is an enquiry, it'll be the usual "nothing to see here" cover up nonsense, and everyone's time will be wasted. The SFA grit their teeth and demoted Rangers to the Third Division - they're not going to go any further than that. It's a sideshow and now Hibs are back in the top league with a decent team I can think of better things to be concerned about.

Our club have clearly been affected by this and disadvantaged. Football is now an incredibly rich and powerful business but the core of it is competition. That's why the English Premier League makes crazy money from TV.
Scotland hasn't been competitive or fair for many years, predating these issues. Dodgy decisions by refs, ignoring sectarian chanting etc.
Now things have been dragged into the open and had a light shone on them. And our response is to shrug our shoulders and 'move on'.
Move onto what? Why did this happen? Who allowed it and why won't it happen again?
Put game is getting weaker and weaker. This move is only a going to male things worse, not better.
It won't affect my attendance at Easter Road but the club have seriously upset a chunk of fans. That can't be a good thing.

The constant lies and misinformation that the authorities have allowed to be spouted so often they are now passed as facts.
The point is, and its a crucial one, rankgers were NOT demoted to the bottom tier. They ceased to exist, started again and were given a helping hand INTO the bottom tier. Completely at odds with the ruling bodies own guidelines and rules, a blind eye was turned to HELP newco f.c. as they did not fit the criteria, it was not to punish oldco f.c.
As this has never been forcefully argued by the authorities it has allowed this lie to become passed of as fact.
I guess they have always been fearful of riling the nutters connected with sevco and that decisions have been made with their personal safety as paramount.
A deeper concern is that they are culpable, including RP and are concerned their collusion and compliance will be outed.
Its a poor show from Hibs.

In other words, that is the worrst that an enquiry could conclude?
And you still want an enquiry?
Why?
