Did she mention the Pope isn't protestant and bears simply refuse to use indoor sanitary ware?

re the stand "with a bit of luck it will be done by the end of the year"
WTF!!!
Imagine Rod came out with something like that....
Making excuses about pitches needing replaced. Are hearts the only team with a pitch BTW?

Craig does not take training but he makes the decisions.
Targets for the season were getting to Hampden and finishing fourth = Fail
We don't budget for cup runs no wonder
We will change the team for next season and that will he a judgement season.
Caveman is a lovely guy who knows a lot about footballLast edited by Sammy7nil; 22-03-2018 at 06:19 PM.

They cant see that she's ripping the urine out of them. If this was Hibs I'd be livid. Thankfully it isn't.

Hibees infrastructure guys take a bow.

2010: The East Stand is constructed
The Club first obtained planning permission to replace the East Stand in 1999, with the planning document renewed in 2005. However, East Stand development was put on hold until sufficient cash resources were obtained to finance the building project.
In 2009, Hibernian Chairman Rod Petrie announced at the annual general meeting that the Club would enter negotiations with contractors to establish the cost of rebuilding the East Stand. After negotiations were concluded, Hibernian announced in February 2010 that work would immediately begin on a new East Stand.
Demolition of the beloved East Stand began in early March of 2010, with the new structure opened a month ahead of schedule in August 2010, ready for the start of the 2010/11 season. This development signalled the completion of Easter Road Stadium.
During the construction, Petrie stated, "The fact the Club is able to build a new stand during what is a very challenging time for football, and the economy as a whole, is testament to the rock solid financial footing of the Club created by returning a bottom line profit for five consecutive years.""We know the people who have invested so far are simple fans."

She said they would be 'Britain's biggest Fan owned club' in about two years time.
Another deadline that keeps getting further away.

Rugger is his game.
What he knows about football could fit quite nicely on the back of a second class stamp.

Hibs brought in someone who knew how to develop a Stadium.
Hearts....................... well they just didn't.

Worked with folks that worked for her and I’m surprised.
Her rep according to them for being as tight as a gnats chuff hasn’t rung true well maybe cutting corners cost wise undid her right enough.

Arrogance and ego probably. She thought she could save some money by running the project herself and no one challenged her.
Their decision to build the new stand around the existing one added huge complexity to the project, and doing without a proper architect was mental.

Hmm... Cathro was sacked for his poor communication skills, the Scottish Football Authorities need to improve their communication levels. Bit rich coming from someone who seems to specialise in obfuscation and evasion.

I thought some of the initial questions were quite good - sounded as though Thompson and English were reasonably clued up but the follow ups were rubbish and she got away with quite a lot in the end. eg.
Q - Did the mistakes made cost money?
A - pile of waffle
no follow-up
Q - How much extra did the stand cost?
A - pile of waffle
no follow up
I realise they're not Paxman but a bit more persistence and we might have got a few more uncomfortable truths.

Think she said he was extremely articulate, or something along those lines.
I think she just blatantly lies to them.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)
