A massive Hibby thank you to everyone who has given up a few pints, meal or night out to help pay for the Hibernian FC supporter display on Saturday 14th April. The club shop has been kept busy with sales of strips, foam hands, flags etc. We have raised enough money £489 for the 10,000 people A3 card display and are starting to make inroads into the cost of the SIX HUNDRED streamers
Please keep these Paypal donations coming to hibs12thman@hotmail.co.uk (hibs12thman@hotmail.co.uk)

The North Stand Lower (capacity 4,500) faces the TV cameras so we need to have all our flags in there. Big surfers and large flags all need a fire cert (please pm us if you need further advice on this). The Sect43 guys will have dozens of wavy flags, 2-sticks and banners as well but we all need to buy, make or bring any of our own to make that North Stand (Sections D1 to D5) a SEA OF GREEN. Blocks of green and white Streamers will be passed to the top rows of the North and these should be thrown when the card display goes up - i.e. when the teams come out of the tunnel until they are lined up on the pitch.
The East Stand is being sold from F1 (beside D5) round behind the goals. We are aiming to produce the card display in Sections F1 to F6 or F7 - a total of 10,000 seats. One section Green, the next one white and so on. That will make either three green and three white sections or four green and three white. We need EVERY SINGLE SUPPORTER in East sections F to hold up the card from when the teams come out of the tunnel until they are lined up on the pitch. If you have a flag in that area, you should show it before or after the card display
Crew required for one or more of these tasks:
To place cards and streamer packs on seats before the game. The night before looks favourite although we might need a wet weather alternative. Glasgow Hibbies welcome as are crews from other areas. Edinburgh car volunteers especially welcome - we should all share the fuel cost
Flag and banner makers, Sunday 1st and 7th of April. No experience required. Anyone know a hall or other space in Edinburgh we can rent?
Pre-match. To hand out streamers. All 3 Stands
Post-match. To retrieve cards. Sections F in East
What do you think - Can you contribute a bit of time?
We want to make this a GREEN DAY out to remember. Aberdeen will have their end looking good but our end should look better. If we all join forces we can make Saturday 14th April a fantastic day out for every Hibby.
