You're right some of the deals we've done for potentially very little cash is impressive. We just have to hope that next season we can replicate that.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Stevie May looks like such a signing for Aberdeen at the moment.

While I still believe Hibs would be better off keeping the money themselves if possible, it's certainly not an unreasonable stipulation for STF to have included.Mon the Hibs.

Sounds to me like a sensible thing to do - it's not as if STF will receive more than the £500k he loaned us.

Imagine the potential team we could build when the loan is repaid and we have an extra 500k to put into the footballing department.

We have sold more SeasonTickets this year than last Folk knew we were likely to loose McGinn ,Dylan and were hopefully we would get Allan back
That tells me Supports still want to back the Club and were confident we would bring in Quality replacements
Fans now though want us to play attractive football finish higher in League than last Season and qualify for Europe and if possible win a Cup
All possible at this stage
What's clear is that The Rangers will get stronger with each passing Transfer Window so therefore we do need to try and finish third this Season and ensure we stay above Hearts and Aberdeen
If we can do that this Season and increase H S L membership by another 500 between now and end of Season , hopefullyvwe can build on that each Season with 14 000 Season Ticket Holders next Season
That has to be the Aim and the Performance on Saturday deserved a bigger Crowd Although the South Lower was fuller than normal

Like every Scottish club with the possible exception of Celtic we rely hugely on bums on seats … Our current upturn in income through the gate is not something Hibs can use in any long term planning IMO, mainly because it isn't based on a nationwide trend like the EPL is for example. Yes there is a modest overall increase in Premiership crowds, but our amazing upturn way exceeds that trend and its impossible to say for certain that that support would continue if the club had a barren season.
My take on it is that we will gradually lose a percentage of the feelgood support, even if we continue to perform well, as the novelty wears off and that if we have a bad season we will lose some more as the folk who only think a team is worth supporting if its doing well lose heart. The hope is that after that happens the hard core support who are prepared to stick with the club during the hard times goes from the pre 21/05/16 level of about 8,000 to a figure of about 11,000.
That is the sort of mindset I would have if I was running the club …. Though of course the aim would always be to work as hard as possible to keep growing the clubs support to the point where increasing the stadiums capacity became a no brainer and to be fair to the current incumbents I think that is what they are doing.

But it is still far less than the discrepancy between what FOH & HSL raise respectively
The remedy is in our hands today, whether we have the collective will to address it is the question

The loan is interest free; however could a clause have been entered that X amount of profit/turnover goes to STF company instead?
Hopefully I’ll be quickly put wrong.

2017 balance - £4,041,659
2018 balance - £3,481,655.
In other words, we paid £560,004 during the year. £60,004 more than we normally pay.
The accounts say that the loan is repayable by "...monthly instalments of £41,667 plus any accelerated annual payments triggered by the results of the company".
I read from that.. 12 x £41,667, plus a one-off payment of £60,000.

I'm surprised nobody from the ponzi scheme mob have not jumped on this overpayment and turned it into a new scandal.

They don’t know what to believe. On the one hand, they’ve heard we are teetering on the brink of bankruptcy. On the other, we are making money and our owner is creaming off the profits into his back pocket.
Must be confusing for the poor wee yams.

hibs finances
I recall that we were supposed to be building a full size indoor pitch at east mains, has there been any provision made for this in the accounts. Personally i think this should go ahead, and if its possible to rent it out to clubs who would find it beneficial to there needs. GGTTH.
