Fixtures released?

When does the league cup start and format ? Will be kept apart from the yams ? (We didn't play group stages last season did we).

Winter break ?

New Hibs strip..macron kit make and main sponsor ?

Stadium Improvements - do the club plan to do any ? Singing section moving to sec 25. Hibs Signage / flags / murals inside / outside stadium.

New bar for fans before game ? Behind the goals has gone do we have an update ?

Hopefully one of the fans reps or the clubs will make an announcement soon about the summer and also bring back the season ticket target counter. I think we should aim for 13k plus.

Onwards and upwards!!

Probably a home new year Derby also.

First Derby early and at ER then PBS and back to us.

That would be sensible but this is Scottish football.

The draw for the league cup group stages is on June 2nd.

The group matches are to be played across 5 match days (you play 4 games obviously) the dates are July 15, 19, 22, 26, 29.

I think some games will be rescheduled for tv.

Really can't see a derby being played on Hogmanay with police on quadruple time and the street party **** happening.

That was a normal Saturday and a nice peaceful fixture with no history of conflict. I'd bet that Police Scotland will put every possible barrier in the way of our game being on Sunday 31 December.

Tracey Smith made a post on Facebook the other day which indicated that Hibs had in mind a temporary solution to replace BTG next season, with a view to looking at options for a permanent replacement in due course ..... it was all hints with nothing concrete being mentioned.

The OP mentioned a mural ....... funnily enough I had just posted on that subject on another thread, there's a huge gable end outside the FF stand which is crying out for a Hibs themed painting ..... I'm really surprised nobody has investigated the possibility of being able to do this, it would look brilliant.

KO 12:00 Saturday 30th December at Easter Road. Job done.

IMHO we will have games on Saturday 23rd, Tuesday 26th and Saturday 30th.
