If the banks had been regulated properly and RBS/BOS had not been allowed to go into investment banking and financial products not completely deregulated and the city did not police themselves rather than an independent body, then no it would not have happened. Banks and bankers are greedy. You have to curb what they do or they will run amok. Basically all the lessons and organisation that came out of the 1929 crash and 30s depression were undone in the 80s/90s/turn of the millennium.

RBS, HBOS, Dunfermline, Britannia, Co-op Bank were sunk by poor quality lending [to people like Philip Green]. Northern Rock relied on short term funding rather than customer deposits and basically ran out of money. Lloyd's was nearly sunk by saving HBOS. Poor quality management was, and always will be, a key part of the problems any organisation faces.

RBS and HBOS where no longer retail banks but part investment bank/venture capitalists/sub prime lenders. They could only do this because of the deregulation of financial institutions and products plus the lack of a strong independent regulatory body. This was New Labou's doing. Northern Rock as well was allowed to lend to sub-prime borrowers and use the short term money markets to fund their long term mortgages. They were able to repackage these loans into offshore special vehicles and sell them as low risk money market instruments. The strategy blew up when short term lending rates spiked as the financial crisis broke. They were only able to do this because of the framework created by New Labour. The final pump of air into the credit bubble was the cutting of interest rates at the turn of the millennium to get Labour reelected. The overwhelming real money spent to bail out institutions was spent on these 3 institutions (£120 billion).

My recollection was the American subprime crash and interest rate fixing by the various big boys over there. This crash made its way over because so many of the banks here, invested in the American model which was ultimately flawed. Fred the shred Goodwin on being removed said, "what do I know about banking?" I'd have followed Iceland's model at this point by jailing them all for gross misconduct and riding a gravy train that was not there but they still took out huge bonuses knowing that the ordinary tax payer would foot the bill.

Not read that thread but they won two Scottish Cups under him, pumping us in one of them. For that they went into admin, came out of that smelling of roses and suffered relegation. We did things the right way, still end up being relegated and spent two seasons more than them in the second tier of Scottish football.

Not for a minute saying I’d have wanted us to go down the same route, but long term they are in a decent state financially as if none of it ever happened.

It was a general credit bubble. Sub-prime was one manifestation of it. In UK we had a re-mortgage market with those being repackaged into bonds. HBOS and Northern Rock speculating on short-term interest rates against long term. RBS as well as poorly regulated lending had become an investment bank trading all types of securities globally. HBOS was involved in property and company take over speculation. Barclays suffered big securities trading and loan losses. Sub prime was a small element, the icing on a credit mountain.

The writing was on the wall for HBOS when the BOS/Halifax "merger"(in fact a nil premium takeover)paperwork contained more about the treatment of executive bonus treatments than anything else.RBOS compounded the original error in appointing Matthewson by replacing him with Goodwin,a complete meglomaniac and surrounding him with nodding dogs.As a result a 300 year bank was destroyed in 300 weeks by Halifax nonentities and Goodwin thought he could do no wrong.In a way it didn't matter what external forces did because both banks were being run by people who didn't know that banking is a long term business and didn't have a scooby.

Deregulation started in the 80s under Thatcher. The only criticism that can be levelled at New Labour is that they didn't re-regulate it! David Cameron actually criticised Labour for over regulation! As for Northern Rock & HBOS, there were queues outside NR of customers trying to withdraw their savings. If the government hadn't stepped in & guaranteed the safety of savings, then there was a serious danger of a run on the banks & complete financial collapse. As for interest rates they actually rose in 2000 & averaged 5% over the 1st 11 years of the Labour govt. They only plummeted after the financial crisis hit. I'm sorry to continue an unnecessary political debate but I hope your comments on our takeover are more accurate than your comments on the financial crisis.

...and I've drunk some s**** beer in my time. 🤮

it was locally brewed though. In fact compared to some beers it was ok. It was about the time of the rise of weak, chemically tasting lagers. Of which few survive, bar Tennents and it's sister Carling of course. Mass produced stuff, so far removed from the classic pilsner style lager as to deserve an award for inventing and selling mediocrity. Another is the nitro disaster that is Guinness. Wonderfully marketed however. I see Coors light trying to make inroads in the UK now. That will up the blandness stakes I tell ya. Happy hopping!

Some of the posts and comments elsewhere I find truly baffling. I’m sure someone must have said this already so sorry for repeating it but it’s worth hammering home.

STF & RP have concluded a deal to sell their holdings and allow someone else to take the club on and hopefully forward.

For anyone who thinks there’s skullduggery afoot from our new majority shareholder I’d like them to think on this....

Our club once upon a time fell into the hands of a couple of shysters by the name of Duff & Gray, they took our great club to the very brink of extinction and in the clubs darkest hour a local man made good who didn’t really care for football decided that this simply couldn’t be allowed to happen as it would rip a huge part of the Leith and Edinburgh soul out of the area, so he stepped in with his own money and saved our club not for profit or for gain at the time but because he felt deeply that it was the right thing to do, to save the club for the people he grew up around and through their custom had helped him build his own business.

Over nearly three decades he and his closest adviser steered our club slowly in the right direction, doing what needed to be done and taking all the flak that came with it when there were some pretty bleak times on the park including two relegations but there where phenomenal highs as well with two league cup wins and the holy grail of Hibs lifting the Scottish Cup.

If anyone who is a true Hibs fan thinks that Sir Tom Farmer would in anyway allow someone to buy him out without him being 99.9% sure that person was genuine and the right person to take the club on and forwards the quite frankly you simply haven’t been paying attention for the last 28 years.

I don’t need to question every aspect of the deal because I trust that both Sir Tom and Rod will have done everything they can to ensure the club remains in safe hands and away from the clutches of conmen and fly by nights.

Hibs ranked 99 places higher than Hearts, that'll go down well with them.

Will be interesting to see if the EEN Jambos report this.

What doesn't make sense is how they have a higher offensive rating than us given we scored 9 more in the league than them last season and 18 more the season before.

[jgl07]

Hearts appear to be ranked below St Johnston and Motherwell but ahead of Livingston.

Whatever happened to beer mats? When did they disappear?

Branding on glasses (more eco friendly?) injuries from flying beer mats :)

I see the Zombies finished above Celtc. I’m sure the the treble will ease their pain...

These things are nonsense. Quite funny though. Natural order and all that

The fact that they have Rangers above Celtic tells it’s own story!

Tusker! That takes me back to my seagoing days and long stays in port at Mombasa. Good stuff when cold but some bars didn't have the facility to chill it back then, misery really was a warm Tusker. :greengrin

Anyone tried Einstock? Icelandic, expensive out of majestic but **** me that’s a brew and a half. I like the Icelandic Pale Ale, absolutely glorious. If I won the lottery I’d brush my teeth with it.

I agree they need to be ice cold.
They even have the frosted glasses here. Great bar.
Had three and packed it in. Have to get up in the morning!

If anyone wants a good laugh surf over to keekback comedy gold

They think Vela a good signing and they are glad Bartley gone because they were scared of his physicality

They still want Potter out though

They seem to have very strange view of our team. They admit they have a poorer keeper than us but they think they have a better defence and midfield and the front players about the same. The stats unsurprisingly don't show that. We scored nine goals more than them and lost eleven less goals last season and have strengthened our defence.Jeezo they are on a different planet. Even quoting our profit for last season then saying it included mcginns transfer and we are needing to sell players for £2m every year. It's quite creepy how obsessed they are. Stating what a great team they have got and of course once haring,Naismith and walker are fit they will be fighting for third. There are loads who think we'll finish above them but they are shouted down by the maroon thought police. Not as bad a the bigot bros forum but horrendous nevertheless. Obviously beating ciwdenbeath equates to finishing third in the spl. In their world anyway.

Genius eh!

They have even resorted to slagging Mallans eyebrows but admit that both he and Allan would walk into their team 😁

I'm no time traveller but I seem to remember watching McGinn score in Tripolis with my own eyes in August 2018.

Your eyes didn't decieve you. Record spl home gates. £2m from the mcginn transfer at least,another 400,000 for villa getting promoted.,around £800,000 made from Europe all not included in those figures. They have as much knowledge of our finances as they have of where the foh money goes. Absolutely not got a clue. It's actually quite tragically funny how thick and gullible they are. Not all of them as there are a few sane voices but they are soon derided by the loonies. Just a very,very weird forum.

[The Spaceman]

Those morons over the road truly believe they'd rather have Clare, Mulraney, Haring and Walker over any of our midfield :faf::faf::faf::faf::faf:

Jamie Walker and Haring on their very best form would compete. That's it.

Haring when fit. Walker has not played for 18 months and was pish the last six months while at Hertz. They say so themselves. They are banking on Naismith signing and not getting injured(highly unlikely)walker getting back to form (a big ask) and haring getting fit reasonably early even when he will miss the first 8 or so games then will take s few weeks to get match fit. Id be very worried if that was our situation. Oh they also still have their hopeless keepers from last year. I know we all see our team through tinted glasses but they take optimism into a different reality.

Anyone remember Breaker Malt Liquer ? That 'beer' had a health kick to it. Yeah I remember it. I think it was like a " snake bite" - half lager, half cider ? Had a big wave on the font.

They did the same last year and went on to win the league in September so I must admit I am concerned.
