Boards of other clubs have put their supporters through hell and the fan base has continued to support.

I am apalled by the clubs statement but of course I will be attending on Saturday and every other Hibs game. I support the team, even if raging at the board.

I'll be there but I'll be making my feelings known to Petrie and co.
Sadly too many happy clappers, not just in our support but across Scottish football, have absolutely no guts when it comes to dealing with the Deadco's corruption.
A near empty Easter Road on Saturday would send a message, but sadly it will never happen.
It's no the players fault the board are a shower of cowards who condone cheating.
Maybe your wording made me misread itQuote:

100% still be there backing the team. They didn't vote this the idiots in charge at board level did.
They are a dead team, let's focus on Hibs. Never been a better time to be a Hibee.Quote:

Stay away if you must but no-one will miss you.
Are folk seriously considering not go to support the team on the pitch purely because of the statement??. Sheesh.
I'll be there on Saturday supporting the team as much as ever. But I'm really disappointed by the statement and a wee bit of my love for the club has been tarnished
What planet are you living on mate? ''Sadly it will never happen''? ****ing glad it will never happen more likeQuote:

Was it John McGinn's fault that Rangers used EBTs ? Did Martin Boyle vet and approve Craig Whyte ? Did Efe Ambrose issue their UEFA License ?Quote:

There are different ways to argue your case and have your opinion listened to bud. Taking it out on Neil and the players is the wrong way to go about it.
There is some absolute zoomers on this site.
Well put TH I cant believe some of the stuff I'm reading about people not coming to support the team on Saturday. F---ing unbelievable!! That will send out a great message to Neil his staff and the players FFS:brickwallQuote:

I watched the film Ghandi today.
I feel the options for us, and other supporters in Scotland are limited. We can only be passive. But we must be firm.
I propose a minutes silence at 18 minutes in our next game unless we score and again in the 75th minute. And/or both.
That was was when we were born and this could be the death of us.
All other clubs supporters should do the same with appropriate timing.
We will all do this until Scottish football is clean.
A bit OTT.Quote:

I'll be there on Saturday - Hibernian are my team, and no incompetent, unscrupulous and deluded board decision will ever change that. If there are any protests planned though, I'll be more than eager to oblige.
The fact remains: what a way to kill the ****ing feel good factor at the club! That statement is as good as complicit in Rangers cheating. We as Hibernian supporters have a board who have put out a statement that is not only non-representative, but it is also embarrassing for us as football fans.
I'm not so sure he isn't attending on Saturday because of the statement, it's probably because he wasn't going anyway.Quote:

Scottish football is corrupt, to what degree is probably open to debate but at it's core it's rotten. A rigged enquiry won't change that. I love Hibs though and will support the club regardless of believing the above to be true.
I'm sure the board will be made aware of the fans feelings on Saturday but it's not the fault of the players or manager so I'll be there to support them.

I don't believe that every supporter condemns the statement...I do believe the majority do however. Just look at the polls/social media reaction, and you can see that for yourself. Delusional to think otherwise!Quote:

If you can, get out and support the team !!
:flag::flag:
Of course I'll be there.
I'd imagine the vast majority of our players hate the ***s so no point punishing them because our board are spineless cowards.

I'm a fan and I'll be telling Petrie exactly what I think of him in song.Quote:

And, as a fan you think that will help the team?Quote:

Aye, because i'm sure John McGinn and Simon Murray care dearly about what fans think of Rod Petrie. They may just not perform to their usual standard....Quote:

I don't think a few choruses of "Petrie get tae ****" will harm the team performance whatsoever. It may just get the message over to the board that many fans are cheesed off with their pathetic statement though.Quote:

I'll be there supporting the players and cheering them onto victory. The players don't deserve a boycott because of what the board have just done.
Don't give a two monkeys about the board. Only have themselves to blame if vile chants are directed towards them.

The SFA and Scottish League / SPFL awarded these honours and surely they have the power to remove them if they feel the spirit of the competitions involved was compromised, never mind actions by a club whose tax avoidance scheme as I understand it lead to a situation where players representing the club were not properly registered.
As for boycotting Easter Road because of this statement .............. FFS honestly !!!
I'll be there..!!!
And anyone that's not going, can ma pal get your ST/ticket?
I don't think boycotting is the way to go. It's our club and just because we have a board who care little for the integrity of the game, we shouldn't let them keep us away.
This battle will be won eventually, it's just a shame that our club will be on the losing side.

The board can expect to face some serious heat over this though.
I'd hoped fans would still go back the team. Wasn't the players fault! Maybe instead of boycotting we can all take brooms in and wave them at Petrie 😁
Sweep all the lies under that tash Rod.
What an absolute rasper of a thread. Not going because of some daft statement - right then. I'll be there regardless. You spend the afternoon with the wife in Ikea or Safeways if you want though.
Would you mind if you don't give me a lift to the game?Quote:

Im unhappy about the stance club has made but I have seen far far worse than this and we managed to all still go.
Not for the first time over the years I have found myself pissed off with the board at the club. Im sure I will be again.
Pathetic thread this .
I'll be there but would love a banner unfurled expressing our feelings with regard to the Huns and put some serious public pressure onto the club to re-think their stance.
The conflict of interest for Rod Petrie in all of this can no longer be denied, he's putting his position ahead of the will of the Hibs support and Hibernian Football Club
I will not be attending on Saturday, as I'm going to watch MK Dons instead
:greengrin
Thank god for that then!Quote:

People will go on Saturday because the team are playing well. When we stop playing well, then fans might be quicker to not go now than before. If the club sets its stall out as just being about bringing in the money then they better keep putting out the product.

That'll show them.
I actually won't be there this weekend as I'm working. But I'll be having a dirty protest at work in solidarity with all the boycotters.
Exactly! Complicit in fraud and now we are guilty by association. We have been hung out!Quote:

I'm disappointed in the statement from the club however, hopefully, yet probably unlikely, there will be a separate movement from Scottish football fans with our views expressed. Doubtful that will happen, but I'm still going to back the team.
Maybe this is Petries way of worming into the top job at Hampden. He might finally get to f#$k from Easter Road! Glass half full guys!
Despite being hacked off with that ridiculous decision I'll be coming up from London for the game.
I will be supporting criticisms of the board but also supporting the team. I do not think that board decision represents what the majority of fans feel. It sadly proves our board are still remote and aloof when it comes to big controversial decisions!
It's a shame our elected supporters reps aren't holding a surgery before the game.
Give Neilson it tight!!Quote:

News flash, not only is football not fair, but neither is life. Call in sick everyday from now on. It's the only protest capitalism will understand.
On a side note from all the doom and gloom, I have to say that I was absolutely amazed to find only three areas in the whole stadium that could accommodate 7 folk together when looking this morning... we're season ticket holders who always invite family to a game once a year and it's never been an issue before now. Changed days!!

I will certainly be there, but do think that we as a support need to do something which clearly indicates that many of us do not support the stance the club is taking on this issue. I won't condemn those who say they will no longer attend (though I think they are very few in number) because everyone has a right to respond as they see fit. I sympathise with their sentiments, if not their methods. Personally, however, I think it's the wrong tactic and would prefer we find some way of expressing our displeasure with the decision which doesn't harm our own team.
You want everyone to boycott the game and financially hurt the club and impact the team because you don't agree with the statement? Get a grip. Time to stay off .net for a while until this calms down i think.Quote:
