Erm.... But it's not a separate banner ad?? It's deliberately designed to associate ALL those clubs being behind FOH. If that makes me a sensitive soul then you're spot on.....

:top marks There's nothing innocent about the way the ad is constructed. It has been carefully structured by the EEN and FOH to deliberately associate Hibs with their campaign and the plight of Hearts. The implication that the EEN are somehow the "champions" of the Edinburgh clubs is also a nonsense. It not only ignores and/or fails to represent the views of the vast majority of Hibs fans on the Hearts fiasco (which are well known) but abuses it's privileged position by using the Hibs branding in this way. If Hibs have approved or been complicit in the construction of this ad, they're either very naive or misguided. If not, then Hibs should be looking for an explanation from the EEN.
apparently hearts are being given 800k advance by the SPFl, anyone else heard anything on this?
It's on the rangers fans site
My view is that they've put all the other clubs badges above the statement 'Your paper - supporting football in Edinburgh and the Lothians.' and below the Evening News logo and so is separate from the rest of it.
I can see how people would have differing opinions though.
They've probably stuck that in at the bottom in the hope that it would keep fans of other teams from moaning about the ad, but has backfired due to the way they've done it.
The boys club story is a classic distraction to deflect the possibility that some yams might realize their situation due to the recent 9 man reality check. It must be tempting for many of them to end their humiliation and shame so the maroon mind control from FOHBDO and the EEN will intensify.

And here we go.....

... So we can expect a free full page ad for all of the other clubs featured at the bottom of FOH 's then?
Their attitude of moral superiority is sickening. Apparently its better to not pay creditors than have someone offer to do it for you and save your club. How sickening are they?
P.s. nice to see them abuse Sergey: thats a definite sign he's getting to them. :-)
Another supposedly good news story after their worst result in the season last weekend.
It's all about timing :greengrin
They could have 10k people pledging but it doesn't matter.. 4 issues...
1 - they are still struggling and the shares remain frozen = no change till April (very close to end of the season..squeaky bum time).
2 - The lack of FOH business plan and risk involved is massive - even the sane yams have doubts plus they will still be in debt next year - just a new and smaller debt if they get through this.:greengrin
3 - What is plan B if the FOH plan falls short? FOH 2 ? If FOH fails the trust and fans faith will be lost - but they haven't got much choice.
4 - The stadium - it's a death trap and they can't afford to fix it - still a massive problem.
One thing I've just thought of that made me giggle inside.
The yams are going on about debt free, well apart from all the stuff around actually buying the club and how that is so much less than the £30/75 million debt they've shed.
When/if they ever do get round to paying it off it will be a new thing for them as they never paid knack all in the past with all that forgiveness/swap stuff.
I think they genuinely believe that once the money goes to Lithuania that they've cleared their debts. The majority will cancel their DD's thinking there's an actual owner in the background who will now look after things. It's like buying a flat in a stair. What do you mean I've got roof repairs I'm on the ground floor.......:rolleyes:
