Good interview with Charlie, gets the point across well and again good publicity.

The more fans see and hear about this the better.

Sky Sports coverage is a pretty big coup as well.

[Garymcl]

Great interview with it also being screened over the uk more good publicity for the club and HSL my only negative point is the reason it was on was to promote HSL but the camera angle didn't show the HSL logo but as I've said all good we must make the most of this feel good factor I've donated to the cause and I hope as many hibbys ( if they can afford it) as possible can donate even a small amount all money goes straight to the managers budget for players great idea let's do it if you can Ggtth

Time waits for no man/woman, just another reason for not putting things off in life, in my humble, the time is right and now is the time for the Hibernian Football Club to continue on the upward trend.

It is. Pity the more local media aren't interested. Local paper for local people.

Our local paper is printed in Newcastle the night before I am led to believe, not much local about it at all.

...but it's still for local people though, mostly.

It was being printed somewhere on the west coast for a while when did it move to England?

No sure but I did hear it was being printed in Newcastle, never read it myself.

Don't speak too soon. With a little luck tomorrows Evening News and tomorrows Scottish Sun.

Not sure if it was picked up well but we hope that supporters will consider Charlie's plea. Aberdeen are reporting that AberDNA ( their HSL ) have just raised half a million from 3000 supporters who have stepped up to the plate since 1st April 2018 to hand to Derek Mcinnes half a million pound to spend on securing/retaining players.

If supporters don't want or are not able to commit a regular amount to HSL please do remember the one off donation option. If 10,000 even donated just twenty pound we could hand Neil a huge help to support our ambitions.

Half a million in less than 3 months? And we’ve raised little more than that in over three years??

what are they doing that we aren’t? We even get higher crowds than them ffs

They must have some hefty "lump sum" investors, if you look at their monthly memberships, the top one is £18pm.

Even if all of the 3000 paid that, it amounts to £54,000 per month.... £162,000 in 3 months, so if they have raised half a million in 3 months, I'd be surprised.

In this instance more than happy with the exposure to be gained on a broader basis via Sky. GGTTH

Delighted to report that we have now gained over 40 new donators since the Sky interview. Interestingly, a number from our fellow Hibees based in England. Thank you for your support from afar.

Please keep spreading the word by forwarding on the video either by email or social media.

What about getting the Proclaimers to hold a concert at Easter rd and donate the revenue to HSL ?

Good news. It shows the balance between getting the national press on board and the local press.

Agreed and it was great to see one of our own interviewing …. one of our own

Here’s what you get with Aberdeen’s. It’s really nothing like HSL, more just a product the club sells.

Still a great idea though, maybe something we should look at

When we launched our new web site we introduced the concept of different donation benchmarks which would be measured in Francks. Donators can log into the Member area to see how many Francks they have. This is intended as a little fun and not to be taken too seriously. We are currently looking at a number of things that we can use to recognise these different contribution levels but as we said at the relaunch we want our "goodies" to be on the park. We don't see much point in spending £30 to attract a £40 contribution. We also have to be mindful of our Articles which require us to direct all funds to the Club. Having said this we would really welcome any suggestions in this area ?

Hi,
I think a wee ‘exclusive’ pin badge or something would be a great idea. Something unique, discreet and hopefully not too expensive.
I’m sure people on here could come up with some good designs.

Thank you for this great idea. The more suggestions the better. Others have suggested an HSL scarf, draw in a lottery for special things at the Stadium, a virtual pitch sale.

If it takes money away from HSL, I'd disagree.

Every £1 of HSL money goes to the Club. In a scheme like Aberdeen's, for every £1 contributed, 16p. goes to the VAT man.

Crops, I’m saying a membership scheme is something we should be looking at anyway, not to do with HSL. Anything that encourages spending with Hibs, is a plus for me

A membership scheme would be VATable, too.

My point, clumsily put, is that if someone wants to give £10 to the Club, they should be encouraged to give it to HSL rather than directly, for the VAT reasons. Also, £10 towards buying something from the shop, for example, has a cost to the Club. £10 to HSL is pure profit.
