New Owner

**WHUHibs** · 28-03-2010 06:09 PM

Before someone says source,,,I wont give it!

Having not been on the message board for sometime this may have already been talked about...

However, if not then I can state first that there are possibly some announcements in the summer about Sir Tom stepping aside.

There are 2 options ,,one is good and one would be less inspiring.

Now I have put it in the domain perhaps one or two of our friends on here with close connections might want to confirm this!

***HibbyAndy*** · 28-03-2010 06:14 PM

If one was less inspiring why would Hibs entertain this notion?

Less inspiring to the fans...im not saying either is bad but one is less appealing to me...

No big suitors investing lots of cash,,,prudent but we need some investment on the park and in my option one of the options is less likley.

STF would only sell to someone who demonstrated they were in it with Hibs best interests at heart. If we were to be sold I don't think it would be to any shady characters.

So the unispiring one is Rod.

**Petrie's Tache** · 28-03-2010 06:26 PM

It is correct, I may by Hibs!

Well you sold half your garden to someone to build a house so you know a good deal!!!

Petrie could possibily pull together a consortium of some sort and buy out STF.

The other option, well I have no idea.....Pat Nevin?, did he not have a stint as Motherwell Chief Exec?

Everyone can guess option one.....the other option could involve people from the footballing community backed by investment...

David Murray.

***grunt*** · 28-03-2010 06:41 PM

Why don't you just tell us what you know instead of fannying around like this?

**KerPlunk** · 28-03-2010 06:42 PM

Blobby and Duff Jimmy are forming a consortium called BLUFF to make a bid for Hibs.

You heard it here first.

Because if I did then they would know who it came from!!!

If someone else puts it out like SilverHibee then perhaps its worth a punt...

I brought people to Hibs before and those of you who know who I am then its not him!!

***MrSmith*** · 28-03-2010 06:52 PM

Intriguing!

If true, I would expect this because I've suspected for some time Rod and STF have been getting Hibs fit for purpose.

Qualification for Europe and the additional income from third place would be an added value to the price..of course a full stadium with season tickets for next year with a brand new stand!

Can't remember what you call this type of company but did Petrie not say a while ago that the plan for when Farmer leaves hibs was us to be run by a committee which spends a penny less than we bring in rather than actually selling to an individual person?

Mikey,,,but aleast the windows in the new stand would be cheaper and we could see games of rugby player at ER for additional income!

**Petrie's Tache** · 28-03-2010 06:58 PM

John Collins?

inside consortium would follow that,,,and would be based on profit,,which in fairness can be reinvested but the other side of that if it doesnt go well then there will be no additional investment in any playing staff unless players are sold..thats the downside..

I can't believe there is a thread on here about boardroom matters, and its not about the yams
