Is it not well known that you absolutely can’t take pyros in? Have the club not been clear?

Take the risk, pay the price.

It's harsh but at the end of the day I agree with you.

It's a shame if it's true that someone who clearly has done a lot to help with the atmosphere has had to face up to some consequences, but they shouldn't be exempt from rules either.

It's like folk thinking it's harsh that the guy who voted the ball away from Tavernier had his details published - the guy did it live on TV in front of a load of police and 20000 fans, he clearly wasn't that bothered about anonymity.

There is a wider issue in society these days where people think that rules or laws don't apply to them, that they can do what they want, when and where they want. They don't care about the people around them and then cry foul for it when the inevitable consequence eventually come around.

How about a deal?

Singing section agree to no more flares (home or away, inside or out) and Hibs suspend the ban. Any flares from that section, ban imposed/increased.

I don't doubt he has done a great deal.

But he was going to take it in to the stadium presumably.

Somebody is going to get hurt soon because of this.

The club and police have made there position to clear.

How would him letting it off outside the ground mean he was going to take it in with him?

It was lit, so no.. he wasn't. It was part of the corteo from Leith walk. It's happened several times!

Absolutely correct. Hibs never do any wrong on the park or off it and everything is continually rosey for eternity. The end, nothing to see here.

First time I've seen mentioned that the person with the flare was in a corteo. But I don't think it changed the fact he was clearly going to the ground with a lit flare and could have had more than 1 in his possession, with the implications that he would light others inside.

Wouldn't stand in court. Can't go banning folk for maybe, potentially having something in their possession. Like arresting someone for Arson because someone said they had a packet of matches.

The singing section dudes usually post on here when looking for funds (pretty sure the banned drummer is often one of them) so if clarity is being asked for then I'm sure they could post and let you know.

I'm going to presume it's a short term ban and he will be back soon enough.

No one is banned. That enough clarity for you?

Unless, when searched was found to be in possession of such items which are prohibited.

I wasn't looking for clarity so no need for the aggressive tone. But I'm sure those few posters who were demanding Dempster explains all will be happy now.

Actually it will and you need to know the law about it. If you have a flare and a football ticket in your pocket (including a season ticket), it is assumed under the law that you will be attending a game and thereby causing an offence. You just have to have it in your possession.

For instance, you could get off a train at Waverley with the intention of walking to Easter Rd but if you have a flare and ticket in your possession, that is when you cause the offence

It`s amazing how many people don`t actually understand this

Dempster does have a fair bit of explaining to do. That remark you made about us getting the begging bowl out or the likes? Well she’s decided they are banned. It’s getting ridiculous now. She needs to get off her power trip.

She’ll no doubt keep using those displays for marketing purposes, that’s for sure.

Time For Heroes anyone?

I said looking for funds not begging bowl. This is obviously a touchy subject for you so why not explain the full story then instead of dropping little bits of information regarding LD and her actions.

IE, earlier you saud no one was banned. And now you are saying 'they are banned' so which is it?

Edit - displays are banned. Seems a bit extreme. What were the reasons given?

Displays, “grouping together”, using our “privilege”, no individual bans. The meeting was short, sweet and direct. There’s not much else to post.

Hopefully she’s away over the M8 soon.

Possibly a reaction to complaints from FF Lower about stuff getting thrown and landing there?


Seems a bit harsh to ban what seemed a pretty popular contribution to 'the match day experience'.

I gather that there was a group in the West Stand hospitality which came over the radio loud and clear. Well done.

They made more noise than the actual signing section yesterday.

Is this the end of the singing section too then? Ffs.

So non reasons given then? Not saying you are keeping things back but I find it difficult to believe she would impose such a ban without good reason?

I can't believe anyone wants rid of our Chief Exec when she has done wonders in raising the profile of Hibs, but each to their own.
