Rod Petrie

**Aspire** · 28-10-2009 02:35 PM

After reading about the financial problems Rangers and the Yams have got.

How glad are we now that we have Rod at the helm of our club.

He has taken so much stick over the last few seasons.

The man is a legend and I think the Easter Road faithful should show him some appreciation on the weekend.

Yogi will take us to the promised land and the holy grail.

Maybe we could sell Rod for a few million quid.

Could,nt agree more.The long term future of Hibs has been preached by RP and STF for the last few years.Hopefully we are now starting to reap the rewards of the work he,s done.Hibs long term future is the most important thing, and we just need to look at the Huns,Yams etc to see that spending what you dont have gets you.We have been down that road before and should remember where it nearly got us.

I think this is the best bunch of players we have had for a wee while so I'll call a truce.

was saying this to a mate at the weekend, im worried that a premiership club or one of the INFIRM take note and approach him. didn't an Aberdeen director go to Everton?

I think the difference is that neither RP nor STF are on an ego trip and RP is, I believe, Hibs through and through whilst STF, although initially showing little interest, has become a follower. Both men have served the club well through particularly tough times.

I think Rod has done a fine job, and earns every penny of his (reportedly) huge salary.

**soda70** · 28-10-2009 05:12 PM

In Rod we trust :)

hope your right mate, I know he and STF go back a while, so maybe workin for him is just as important.

Petrie's done a good job at Hibs. Im glad he's here and not somewhere else! Anyone know if he is a Hibs fan?

His salary is not that huge, not for a fully qualified accountant, for his position, and for someone who knows exactly what he is doing.

Rod Rocks

**~~Phil D. Rolls~~** · 29-10-2009 01:16 PM

We'll be calling him Mr. Petrie next, and doffing our cap whenever he walks past. Good to see him getting some credit on here at last. I just hope people are more patient the next time we go through a tranisition.

**bobbyhibs1983** · 29-10-2009 02:02 PM

i think he like many peole has said, though i do wonder, when hibs are debt free(soon i hope) i do wonder what ll hapen if say we get £1million for player x(this time we are debt free) i do wonder what ll happpen, will it stay in a bank?
and think ok we need money in reserve in case of another bad fininacal(sp) spell

or buy new players,increase the wages

Let's be clear, he's done very well in squeezing ££ out of the saleable assets we've had at the club over the last 4 years, and in his appointment of TM at the right time. However the true value of this strategy has yet to show through. If and its a big IF, we can capitalise on our relatively strong financial position by winning things and regularly competing for Europe, then RP may indeed achieve Legend status. IMHo the job is only half done.

I wouldn't go as far as to call Petrie a legend, but I'm certainly happy that he has kept us out of a financial deathtrap!

My understanding also, but never really a real football fan. Thank god he is in charge at Hibs and long may it continue. When you see more and more clubs north and south of the border struggling and some going tits up it proves he has been right over the last few years no matter how painful it has been for us.
