Yes, and Hibs and the players know that. I think an agreement will be found. I also think Kamberri and Boyle will be sold and we will make new signings, with the new players having to fit into the new pay structure.

I wonder which player has been feeding the details to the Record journo.

It could be someone that's been let go, ot even one of their wives.

Would depend entirely what the contract said.

I think if we were his only concern,u expectation would be that he sees us right, but I think he has a number of businesses and without knowing how they're all doing, it might be that he needs us to cut our cloth in the meantime.

It’s all a bit of an unknown at this point, but selfishly I’m only interested in hibs. He’s bought a football team and that means he’s got to be prepared to put money into it at time’s of trouble.

I actually thought it might’ve been one of the coaches that have been let go.

But Hibs should have been on the front foot, no way we're they going to keep this news secret, so the club statement should have addressed all the issues. We have gone from big screen TVs & ribbon advertising & able to reject shirt sponsorship to a bit of a bunker scenario. As yet I've no other club, apart from Hearts, appear to be going down this road in fact most appear to be recruiting, with Dundee Utd's American owner more willing than ours to "pony up". I suppose it's all about survival but I'm bracing myself for a season of mid table mediocrity.
