Where no doubt we will be slapped with a fine for 'bringing the game into dispute' or a points deduction.

But well done Hibs for having the balls to stand up for whats right & calling this out. Proud its our club that has started the ball rolling.

[Pedantic_Hibee]

The SFA should be ****ing ashamed of themselves for it to get to this stage.

Can’t see them fining or a points deduction. We gave done what they should have done years ago. Condemned it but gave went decades either way their heads in the sand. They are as complicit.

Hopefully be able to point to the letter to the club thread on this forum. This isn't simply Hibs behind this, the call for a ban on certain away fans is coming from our own supporters, and there is little doubt Hibs deciding to act now has been prompted to a fair extent by Hibs.Net. Something Hibs should point out to the SFA at the very start of this 'meeting'

This a million times. The ****ing governing body of our game and they only belatedly act at this point rather than taking the lead and even then it's just for 'talks'.

They're interested in one thing and one thing only - and that's how to massage this problem away from the limelight without upsetting the established order.

Spot on.

Probably going to discuss how we cant cut allocations for the SFA`s beloved Glasgow Rangers and how dare we claim their fans sang and behaved in a abhorrent manner. resulting in a fine and a slapped arse for our troubles.

Yep. The instruction will be to stop talking about it.

I still find it absolutely incredible that in every game that either of the uglies play here without fail, we get this barrage of bigoted bile and it always goes unchallenged and unreported.

[Diclonius]

Tell them to **** off.

They only care about it now it actually affects their golden children.

[CapitalGreen]

Do the SFA not have eyes and ears, why is the onus on a member club to do this rather than our governing body take the lead themselves.

[Scorrie]

We’ll probably get a 10 point deduction

[Zazu62]

Did they do the same with hearts when they cut the allocation?

[One Day Soon]

Literally IDGAF what the SFA want to say to us on this. The blazers have been actively enabling this sectarian bile for over 100 years. To not act is to endorse.

Time for talk is over.

The 2 situations are not alike, other than both reducing their allocations.

Hearts reduced them to allow more of their own fans in (no laughing at the back)

Hibs are reducing due to their behaviour and it’s that which the SFA want to talk about

Spot on. No way should we turn up and entertain those *******s.
It's our stadium and we decide who gets in and who doesn't.

...while allowing it to stay firmly in the limelight.

The SFA can do nothing about what allocation Hibs give Rangers (except in the Scottish Cup), as evidenced by the "no Rangers/Celtic away fans" at that derby.

Perhaps they have been waiting for a club to say something?

[blackpoolhibs]

I hope we go in there all guns blazing, enough is enough. Tell them twats to get their house in order.

This has gone on for decades too long, man up Hibs and the SFA and call it out for what it is once and for all.

It's time for proper penalties, points deductions have to be threatened now. Start with a clean sheet, first infringement a warning, 2nd 5 point deduction, 3rd, 10 points, 4th, relegation.

[weecounty hibby]

I hope we just tell them how it is. Decades if inaction from the football authorities has allowed two teams fans, but the hun in particular, to behave however they want to. Sectarianism, bullying, harassment, anti social behaviour around the streets etc etc. The bigotry from them has got worse and worse since they got away with cheating almost scot free. We have made our decision based on what's best for Hibs, our support and the local community who must hate it when they come to town in their thousands

[Carheenlea]

Trying to decide whether this is a welcome invitation or one with undertones of threat.

[WeeRussell]

Oh to be a fly on the wall..

[Alex Trager]

Disappointed, was hoping this was for the decisions we’ve had against us over the last few weeks.

Conveniently takes the heat off their ***** refs

Might be a daft question but are the refs freelance for r do they work for SFA or SPFL?

They f****d with a wealthy American (or Canadian?) before and got ragdolled. Hopefully even those morons learned a lesson.

If the SFA want to discuss it they can get out their ivory tower and come through to Easter Road and we'll discuss it there.

Exactly so. It shouldn't have been left to a member club to take action against the bigots. This should have been dealt with by the SFA decades ago.
Shame on them.

[Aldo]

So in Oct 2022 Kyle Lafferty was banned for 10 games by the SFA for breaching a rule which forbids the use of insulting language which includes reference to the likes of ethnic origin, race, nationality, religion or belief.

The 35-year-old Northern Ireland international appeared to use the phrase “pack of Fenian b*******”?

Well well SFA. Why have you not condoned the bigoted sectarian bile sung at Martin Boyle as he lay on the ER Pitch.


Then we have the Orange Order reporting Hibs fans for a banner depicting them with a red line through it.

So If they can report an incident like this to the Police maybe a couple of hundred or maybe thousand Hibs fans can report this sectarian singing as a hate crime to the Police.
