A load of patronising pish.

In fact scratch that I don't think there'll be any announcement apart from welcoming our new Chief Executive as Petrie is currently employing his tactic of say nothing and they will go away.

The wind of change, a fan rep on the board perhaps, another mid to long term plan via a new (female) voice and other such platitudes.

We'll still be down.

Probably something like "Hibernian FC would like to inform supports that, following ample consultation and discussion, there will be no changes to the club's board or coaching staff following relegation to the Scottish Championship. We would like to thank all of the fans for their tremendous support over this difficult period in the clubs history and we look forward to a new era of footballing success under Terry Butcher."

Frank Reilly from Hibs Supporters Club seemingly mentioned it on radio this morning

It may be the youth link up with Spartans. A work-mate of mine is a former player who still chats to some of the higher-ups there and he mentioned it last week. Supposed to be announced around June 1, so could fit with timeline? Afraid I don't know anymore than that though.

I can imagine this word for word. I doubt it's going to be something that will make us all feel more positive about things anyway...

Mike Reilly from HSA was on radio Scotland this morning saying that there was meetings last night with key groups / individuals to look at the possibility of ousting Petrie and Butcher - when asked by the newscaster how they would achieve this he said he could not give details at present but more information to follow hopeully by the end of the week in the form of an announcement to all fans - this is a fan led initiative of which we do not know the full details - yet ?

:agree:

Fans pressure group for changes to the board - wanting RP out - how is RP going to react to it ?

Farmer to sell / have less involvement but based on certain conditions.

All would have been much easier if we were still in the top league :rolleyes:

It looks like plans discussed include a season-ticket boycott while fans who have already forked out for the new campaign could be asked to cancel their payment plans or insist on their money back.

Business supporters will also be asked to consider cutting their spending and a protest march to demand Petrie relinquish his position has also been mooted.

They are being backed by former players, including Jackie McNamara Snr, Paul Kane and Ralph Callachan, and business investors.

It's the only thing I could see them listening to what fans have to say. IF enough people did it. Money is the language they understand.

Unfortunately I don't think enough people wiil boycott to make them listen.

There might be enough ST's sold to allow the club to stagger through the season but if that was low enough they might need walk ups to keep their head above water, we might have Rod by the nuts if the ST's sales are low, anyone hazard a guess at how many have been sold.
