But through the whole thread we have taken more interest in that club than their own supporters, even now, in their death throws have taken about their own club.
As a Hibee I cannot imagine doing this, if this ever happened to Hibs (which with the way we are run probably wouldn't have happened to us) I know that this would have been sorted long ago, we would never have let it get to this stage, we would have asked questions, pushed for answers and harried the board until all our questions were answered. Every year we have a long thread about the state of our accounts, which are published in good time and in good order, we debate the good and bad of keeping the club "within it's means", yeah some of us want to spend more on the footballing side, some are in favour of keep a tight budget, but we all care about the financial side of the football club. Maybe we are lucky, had we not gone through the early 90s we may have been less sensitive to issues like this?
Looking a brokeback at the moment, you would never guess that their club is in such a state, maybe it is ostrich syndrome :ostrich: I really don't know but surely if your football club is in the state theirs is in you would care more? I know jambo's, most ******s, but a few who are genuine football men, who love their club passionately but even they fail to see that the last few years have been the death by a 1000 cuts for their team, they prefer to see 1-5, 1902, 22 in a row. I really do not get it. Maybe a few of the yam lurkers would like to come on this thread and enlighten me:confused: I doubt very much that will happen though.
