    Bargain?

    Thought this summed up the season so far:

    One of the lads at work was shopping in a local Chesterfield sports shop. He spots a copy of the 2010 Hibs annual and thinks it would be a good gift for me. Very nice of him eh?

    It's marked at a bargain 50p. He gets to the counter and is told by the young lady that it is now not 50p but in fact 10p!

    He brought me the receipt to prove it as well! He also had the 50p sticker from the cover. Not one sticker of course but three, one on top of the other. Original price £5.00, reduced to £2.00 then 50p! Finally 10p!

    Now dosen't that just sum up our season? We start at a fiver and end on 10p!

    Gaun the Hibees.

    He should have waited until after our game at the weekend when it would have been half price.

    Knowing Hibs the book will have three price stickers on it just like the one in Chesterfield. Except the bottom sticker will say £10, the middle sticker £20 and the top sticker (the price you actually pay) £30.

    Petrie get it sorted.

    Ken, it was originally £10 but once Petrie had inspected the store a few times that was the case.
