"Speculation"

[WestCoastHibby]

Leeann Dempster quoted in BBC interview about the Neil Lennon debacle saying some of the speculation was "outrageous"
Top tips hen, don't treat your paying customers who've invested a lifetime of support, blood, sweat and many tears in supporting Hibernian FC like mugs.
My head doesn't zip up the back, and we do deserve to know why finance that could have been channeled into the team goes to a manager and assistant to keep "schtum"
Just hope there's plenty clauses in the new man's contract that don't allow us to be stiffed if it all goes Pete Tong.
Small rant, sorry. Just how I'm feeling

How much money did Lennon and Parker receive exactly?

Was just about to ask the same. No one outside of those involved has the slightest idea.

Managers come and go... the supporters or anyone else should never know exactly why. These matters are obviously confidential.
Be great if we could just move along now and concentrate on the manager and team we actually have...

Ok then... let's speculate on speculation.... Jeez

Her comments protect all parties. Neil has said complimentary things about his time here, Leeann has been complementary to Neil.
We have no right to know any detail covered in the compromise agreement so time to move on....

I do not as a Hibby of 50 odd years think that "I'm entitled" to know the precise ins and outs of "every single business matter pertaining to my club".

I for one do not feel like I've been treated, in your words, "like a mug" by my club.

Neither do I feel like, again in your words, "stiffed" by my club when things appear to go wrong.

I respect my club's stance of "discretion and confidentiality" re the circumstances surrounding Neil Lennon's departure.

Couldn't agree more. Bullometer is off the scale on this site at the moment too many provocateurs.

There appears to be an increasing amount of people walking around with an attitude of "entitlement", that feel personally offended and get upset when matters they have no right to know are not divulged.

Agreed. However, now that the new manager is in position the moaners need to rake over old ground to try and dredge up the latest dig. I don’t know why some of them bother with Hibs.

My feeling's exactly!
I buy my season ticket to watch my team, I'll leave the business side to the people with experience.
They know a ****ing lot more than I do.

Ta. Definite indication in that interview that Hibs had an eye on Higginbotham before Lenny left, so it looks as if the incident where he threw the chair at Leighanne, missed and it hit Petrie was the last rather than the first straw.

Well, for a kick off nobody knows how much Lennon or Parker were paid. How exactly can the club reveal why Lennon and Parker left the club without breaking what sounds like a legal arrangement? And the big question nobody ever answers … why would Neil Lennon sign a gagging order, or in this case an order which bounds 'both' parties to confidentiality, if he was entirely blameless in what went on … surely if he felt he had been treated unfairly or unjustly a guy who is never afraid to speak his mind or stand up for himself like Neil Lennon would surely have told Hibs to stick their gagging order. It looks to me like this arrangement is beneficial to both parties.


She is right, some of the speculation was outrageous, as was the nature and tone of some of the attacks on Dempster and the club on social media, including her twitter account.

Its done …. FFS lets move on.

Never felt the need to quote one of my own posts before, but I had to so that Son of Paddy's reply to it can be compared to what I said.

I posted to say that I agreed with what LD said about the speculation and abuse … then SOP said he agreed with most of my post, apart from bit where I agreed with LD about outrageous speculation and abuse and then he goes on to construct a sentence which no matter how you read it looks like he is agreeing with my agreement with LD's opinion on the speculation and abuse.

Colour me confused
