Just back from Riccarton, Neilson an Crawford met Brondby off the coach and are providing them with training facilities ahead of the game on Thur.

Seems only fair that the Sporting Excellence facilities are vacated by Hearts to make way for some Elite sportsmen.

I assume they managed to clear it with the 3rd year hockey students first then.

It's not even their facilities to let

So facilities paid from sport Scotland are being used by our opponents? Sound.

It's hardly the end of the world. They would have needed somewhere nearby to train, if it hadn't been Riccarton it would have been Peffermill or Stirling Uni or the like.

I can't see the fact they rented the same place Hearts do having any effect on the game, they were always going to train sonewhere locally.

Taking the game very seriously if that's the case, and far from the pre-season kickabout that many seem to feel we should be treating it as.

They were just letting them know that you can train there until you owe well over £100k then just get away with not paying it....

Wonder if Neilson was explaining to Brondby how to just dingy any receipt for paying for use of the facilities? Dinny pay it for 18 months and then you get use of enhanced facilities at cheaper price. Simples:cb

tbf at least the owners of riccarton will finally get some rental fees paid



not that the owners need money right enough, not when they can afford to write off the 30 million Billion rent money the grunts done them for



p.s. have hibs fixed up training at the rivals of brondby :)

So they've rented pitches from Heriot Watt?

I'm not sure what the story is here..

(Danish accent) Ah Mr Neilson, so tell us how you coped with our opponents the last time you played them?

We got knocked oot the cup....

I wonder if they will be paying for the privilege or have they heard that these facilities are free as long as you employ beasts and bump charities.
Never let them forget.

We we're 2-0 and we ****ed it up. It's was alright though cause I thought we'd have a better chance at the leith San siro. That's what Craig (I **** it on the biggest day of my footballing life and left my team mates to hopelessly surrender the league on the last day of the season) told me to say. It was his fault, but I'm the diddy they put in front of cameras each week, cause I'm marginally less hair and very marginally more articulate than a orangutan.

More like Hearts get the facilities for next to nowt, and rent them to the Danes for a handsome profit.

I've no problem with Bronby using Riccarton, they will need somewhere to train, as long as it's not east mains. I'm not sure what business Neilson has being there, if he was, and id certainly hope he has better grace as a professional than to be helping a team potentially damage the countries co efficient, even if that team are playing your city rivals. I wouldn't want a hibs manager doing that for any other scottish teams opponent's unless there was a genuine link there that could help justify it, for example the manager used to play for the team, ideally for a long time and grew an affinity to the club or they are managed by someone they are particularly good friends with, those I'd begrudgingly accept but just helping a team because it makes you rivals look bad is poor sportsmanship and petty at best. Not that there's actually any proof he's is offering anything but just being there leaves him open to suspicion

What's wrong with Neilson meeting up with Brondby? He's probably just asking for some coaching tips from a decent football team...


...or he's just spotted all the Scandinavian Blonde WAGS.

no. Brondby will rent from Sport Scotland. Lets not start acting like that lot. Its a sport facility available to anyone who wants to rent it.

Mmm, and it's Hearts we're talking about here. I know what side of petty I think they are on.

Another "special" relationship in the offing perhaps? the fans do like them, I remember talk of the Liverpool one, only played one tie and it was instant - they even got to be on the Yam creditor list, respectable position as well, £46k.

Surely you mean Heriot-watt are providing them with facilities?

can i take a wild guess here to what may have happened?

i think Brondby have hired Riccarton for some training sessions when heartz were due to train and the riccarton people have told heartz to sod off and neilson has been told to give the brondby lot the keys :greengrin

:agree: Undoubtedly another yam special relationship arrangement there - they are virtually joined at the hip, to the extent that HW never actually bothered pursuing the yams burgeoning pre admin debt the last time. They were even higher up the list than Liverpool, allowing themselves to be bumped for a very respectable £145k

Lebogang Phiri will miss the game as he did not get a Visa in time.

A quick Wiki search shows he is a 21 year old South African international playmaking midfielder and played 40 games for them last season.

Think we should offer Birkikara East Mains.

RoxburghHibs
12-07-2016, 10:50 AM
So in summary:

Brondby hire public training facilities also hired by Hearts.

HibernianJK
12-07-2016, 11:09 AM
I know Hearts don't own Riccarton like we own East Mains, however if we had a foreign club borrowing our training facilities and someone (would hope the manager) wasn't there to welcome them I'd be prety disappointed.

Yes.

The real story will be that brondby will actually pay for the privilege.

Just to clarify:


Hearts have NOT offered them training facilities...... Mainly because they don't actually OWN any training facilities.

Exactly, but feel the need to act as if they do by meeting the Brondby staff.

I'm pretty sure it would have been Hibs who set them up at Riccarton as good hosts and I'm sure the will do the same for us over there.
I'm also sure that George Craig had said at one of the HTC visits that Hibs had an agreement to rent at Riccarton as well once the new facility is built. What the extent of that is I don't know. Could be just the use of the indoor hall once a week of the players in for sports science testing etc but I'm sure that was what he said.

With the yam players hanging around powerleague hoping that somebody is a player or 2 short so that they can get a free game?
