Last night the possibility of creating a Manager's Fund which would accept direct payments from supporters was once again raised.
The person raising it was asked to put a few ideas together and see if there is any merit in trying to get it going and bring it up at a later meeting.
This idea has come up before without getting off the ground.
If there is anyone interested don't hesitate to come along to another Working Together meeting to try and get things moving.
In the meantime there are 3 ways to contribute directly to a fund which is ringfenced purely for the Manager to use in improving the playing staff. These are:-
1 Buy a season ticket for yourself and your family
2 Contribute to Kick for Kids/Leith Links
3 Buy a lottery ticket though only 26% of any ticket money is given to Hibs. You have a chance of winning millions as well
The club have stated that all money raised is given directly to the Manager at the AGM so any rumours of "aw but it doesn't work like that and the club hold some back" are totally unfounded. The club would be breaking the law to state otherwise.
Of course tax will have to be paid on each ticket
Basically if you want to see better players and are in a position to contribute please do one of the above. If you choose the Leith Links route I know FrankSuzy isn't too proud to accept small single donations.
