Are you planning to put a bid in for the club?

If so, how much were you thinking?

Did we have a bid accepted for it?

Did the mice take it along the M8?

[Mikey]

You used to get a great scran at the AGM but Scott Lindsay put an end to that. Quite right too as it was a waste of money.

If you are able to take over the club, will you put on a buffet in future years?

Your answer may be important.

I'm good at these clues. :wink:
It's Warren Buffett isn't it.

[California-Hibs]

This Hibernian Retro always goes quiet after folk ask about their proposed take over bid that was once suggested in a thread by him.

Load of rubbish me thinks, but very odd at the same time.

However if you plan to plough in over £20 million then I'm sure he'll give you a fair hearing.

Now now CH there will be no questioning, dissenting or anti retro posts on here or you will be deleted or banned from the site.

















Oh sorry that's the retro Facebook page isn't it?

Off topic I know but who was once quoted in the EEN as saying the following about AOB?

“their winger was fast and is a good player”

You're a wee troll Mr Retro man.

My son plays this game where he farts just before leaving a room, leaving those trapped inside to deal with the fall-out.

Was it not Pep Guardiola or some other Barca lovey after MOB tore them a new one at Murrayfield?

It seems the retro team are happy to see Hibs get beat.

That seems strange.

This Hibernian Retro squad are an embarrasment. Happy to suggest they'll 'bid' for the club, but when quoted never reply. Ban people from their page for asking direct questions. Thinking a defeat is 'what the doctor ordered' prior to an AGM.

'Retro Team' can do one.

Maybe if the yam children got outside and played football rather than trolling they wouldn't be bottom of the league.

They won't have any plans, I doubt they will even be there. They are the new sidney hibee, attention seeking lonely people.

Trolls don't tend to go to the extent of sending out Hibs t-shirts to prize winners in their competitions.

[Hibby D]

Probably not, but it still begs the question (with respect) why this person is being permitted to come on here with what appears to be the sole intention to ****-stir?

Oh, is it? In that case I retract my last post and I'm actually beaming with pride. So proud.

[spike220]

Sorry to burst you bubble, however there won't be a buffet.......:rolleyes: Well that has to be top of list, the reintroduction of the AGM Buffet, I can hardly think of a more pressing issue.

[Bostonhibby]

Maybe the retro plan will be to save the yam, knock us and them into "one team in edinburgh" shut Hibs down, flog off Easter Road for housing and lay the foundation for a new team that plays in maroon at the soon to be completed gorgie megasuperhotelstadium that will then go onto champions league glory.

All paid for by somebody else.

Ah, but they tried that already, its why they are where they are today.

Think I will vote against it, just like before.

Easy peasy.
HR can be spotted a mile away - they'll be sitting 4 abreast, with one clutching an A4 piece of paper with their agenda and mission statement. Another will be carrying a very large fake cheque with which to buy the club.

Only sit next to individuals, or groups of 2 or 3. Simples :greengrin

I'm going too. At this month's meeting with the board there was an appreciation that Jamie Marwick had done a good job putting us back into profit. But supporters were looking to the Chairman for the vision, the leadership, the accountability for league positions over the past ten years

Kevin you raised that at the meeting with Rod? Since then LWT have formed a small working group to improve communication between management and supporters. Some actions are already underway.

Hibs already brought back Colin McNeil (Head of Communications at Scottish Power) to improve the communications. He did a good job for the club the last time he was here. Like all board members he is a supporter just not elected by ST's.

I think the club should look at your suggestion separately. The supporter rep should focus on Vision. That's a higher priority than Communication IMO as it is at the core of everything at Hibernian FC

Came on here to find out all the latest on the takeover bid to be launched at the AGM.

So far as I can work out, Johnnyboy will be chairman (but his 'consortium' has unspecified funding) while the rival bid from the cotton magnates is now looking a little shaky. Is this right?

You forgot the tape recorder. One of them will have a tape recorder.

There was free wine at The Baker Boys book launch at E R last night. The red was going down a treat. Was a good do even if the author was sh@tting himself but he was more relaxed later.

[Speedway]

I predict the following 15 outcomes/statements:

1. Great financial performance due to cup final and increased ST take up

2. Backed the manager in the transfer market

3. Couldn't get Griffiths no matter who Rod offered to make pregnant at Molyneux

4. Reasonable start to the season, Yams/Malmo games hurt, won't happen again yada yada yada

5. Some weird extremely selective stat that makes us look like we're doing great. (only team sponsored by Nike in Edinburgh to reach final of
last years cup all year or something)

6. EM, grass roots, other stuff that doesn't win us SPFL matches all doing wonderfully well

7. We wouldn't be here without STF - RP

8. We wouldn't be here without RP -STF

9. LWT smashing progress, wonderful.

10. Someone fiercely questions the price of a nip in BTG

11. Someone else asks if Riordan is training with us

12. Board states it's vision to be competing at the top end of the league and in the latter stages of the cups

13. Two man anti-RP protest outside from the Hibernian Who Cares? team

14. Someone calls it a day, rolls their sleeve up and publicly self harms.

15. Class dismissed, no further questions your honour, together we are stronger, let's all be in the family way for a brighter tomorrow, Hibs still here in 678 years, tighten our belts, live within our means, it's a marathon not a snickers, great tradition, rock solid financies etc and so forth.
