People are now complaining about HSL trying to raise additional funds for the managers budget? How anyone could take offense at the original post is baffling.

Yes it would, however between 4 members of my family Hibs have gained a total off £1285 out us for next season as well as previous seasons, I think thats enough imo. Those who can donate more then well done and fair play however I'm not in position to donate right now.

I guess the £1285 Hibs got from me for 4 season tickets for family members isn't enough? I can't afford anymore therefor I think I've paid enough towards the managers budget. Not about being negative, its my opinion thats all. If others can afford to donate then brilliant.Last edited by Hermit Crab; 06-06-2018 at 12:52 PM.

That's me signed up for monthly direct debits of £7.73. I know it's not much, but it's all I can afford and every little helps.

No, I cant post on this thread because I can't afford to donate. Talk about Ùber fan stuff.

Both are my choice though, if I thought either were too much then stop.
Certainly wouldn't feel that I should moan about someone asking for more help just because I thought i was paying enough though. I'd realise that it's a choice to make.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)

But at a time when the monies raised beyond this by both Hearts and Aberdeen through their schemes to name but two vastly outstrip what is raised by HSL then clearly its not if we want to compete at the top end of the table.
What do you think pays the other running costs of the club?
Some of the ST money goes towards this.
Contributing to HSL is a guaranteed way of putting money in the pot to be spent in players.
Every £ counts I would urge those that can afford to contribute anything at all to do so
HSL will facilitate contributions of any amount.
I much prefer where we are now to where we have been in recent years and there is no doubt money talks.
We finally have a structure and manager in place that we see that monies raised will be used wisely

Not meaning this in a bad way but what's the point responding to this thread stating why you think you donate enough? This thread has been put together to encourage more donators, it isn't a dig at people not donating so why respond like that?
All you've probably achieved is deterring people able to donate from donating as they'll likely say "you know what, I give enough". Its always a personal choice but sharing your own opinion of it will clearly have some influence on others. This "dinnae give the club another penny" talk helps nobody, except you as it may be popular opinion.
As a country we get less through TV money than the Austrian league, we are at the bottom of the barrel so thinking that all money from ST goes to playing budget is foolish, where is the rest of the money coming from to pay the catering staff, the groundsman, the office workers etc? ST cover internal costs as well.
HSL gives a mechanism to give money solely towards playing endeavors only if you can afford to. 2000 out of 13000-14000 ST holders and all the overseas bunch is a poor/slow turn up in my books and I think a lot of people are disregarding HSL far too easily.
We will be happy to moan when Hearts and Aberdeen leave us in the dirt, won't we? We are a negative bunch tbh and I think that is partially to blame. HSL are asking people to donate, if they can, and we seem to be getting our panties into a royal mess over nothing.
Donate if you can, simple message.

I cant multi quote but if I could I would highlight a few post on this thread from folk complaining about the issue being raised to the phraseology used.
For goodness sake you can skim past any post \ thread you don't like, its not mandatory to read them all.
Meanwhile in the real world our rivals continue to raise more than we do.
I know what I think is the bigger issue, but folk need something to complain about I supposeLast edited by BSEJVT; 06-06-2018 at 01:34 PM.

You’d have thought that most folk on .net are aware of HSL by now!
Maybe time to start getting your msg out to a different audience instead of coming back time and time again to the same folk?
If they want to pledge they will, they’ve had enough reminders.

Socioeconomic factors will change, we will get new members here. We've got a transfer thread that descends into puns each year and has numerous pages of essentially zero worthwhile information. Yet a thread about raising funds for playing squad is criticised. Sometimes things just seem a wee bit mental, honestly.

That is a tremendous contribution to the club. I don’t see why you would feel pressured to do more?

Any communication from HSL that I have seen emphasis the those who can afford to message.

This is a good idea, however way you slice it, Hibs will benefit, and its only £10, if you can afford it, go for it.

I've no idea why certain posters are offended by this. Nobody has questioned why they can't.
Can you afford an extra £10? No. I cannot. End of. Read another thread. You're no worse a hibs fan, person, husband, brother, colleague.. etc
Probably still moans about the 5p bag charge in Tesco anaw.

And I also disagree with fundamentally 'the masses' subsidising wealthy footballers or multi-million pound generating businesses.
