Me. Their success has reflected well in all things Hibernian. Another case of English TV money ruining Scottish football. In this case, the women’s game.

Maybe we could divert some money we've spent on season tickets towards this?
Or perhaps we could just let them be self funding, pay the girls from what they earn at the turnstile, sponsorship and from transfer fee's instead of being plundered like this?

The women's team has done phenomenally well over a number of years, especially the last two or three and it's a damn shame if it's breaking up at the moment.
I've thoroughly enjoyed watching their progress, & the development of the women's game in general.
Cheap shots don't change any of that.

Joelle Murray was co-commentating on our game last night with sport sound. Her debut as far as I’m aware?

Both Arnott & Smith recruited by Manchester United women. Two very good players that did really well here. Best of luck to the pair of them

I take it Arnot and Smith will now be full time professionals?
Not sure what sort of wages would be on offer at that level, pretty sure I heard that if you were English and playing in that league then you got a healthy wage but it was capped?

Women's game in Scotland not developed enough domestically for them to get paid.
Therefore can't blame them for heading somewhere they can make a living out playing football.
They've served Hibs Ladies well so good luck to them.

Remember Hibs hosted the first ever organised women’s game of football in world - back in 1881!!
Supporting the womens game is in our DNA!

And to try and compete we will need even more money, in fact we will need even more money just to stand still.
Yet after all their success, they STILL get one woman and a dog watching them, why is this?
Any money diverted from our season tickets, is money that does not go towards the team i support.
I dont pay my money to fund womens football.

Good luck to Arnot and Smith with their new club, and I hope they have successful professional careers.

Your money has for several years been diverted to a youth team that wasn't producing players for the first team.Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

Had to happen … I presume Glasgow City will end up having the same problem as Hibs ladies, so from that point of view our women's team might be able to take the hit and still stay competitive with their only real challengers.
There's utterly no chance that Scottish women's football will be able to match up to what they can afford down south … for clubs like Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal and now Man United chucking between 20 and 30 grand a year for example at a female players contract is peanuts to them, for a Scottish club its unthinkable and that will never change.
Hibs will never fund our women's team from the clubs coffers and rightly so, it just wouldn't make any business sense because it would only work if we could recoup those wages from a transfer fee, and so far as I'm aware there are no transfer fees paid in the women's game. I do hope that the club continue to support the ladies team in every other way possible though.
Good luck to the girls leaving Hibs to go to Man United, what a dream it must be for them to become professional footballers

Bad news for Hibs Ladies who had a realistic chance of winning the league this year.
Scottish women's football should be seen as a stepping stone to full time football and its great news for these young women. Glasgow City have also had a few who have left for Germany and this will only strengthen the national team.
