the no1 club in Scotland who need to invest this transfer window are...

[Springbank]

Hibernian. I can't think of anyone else.

Tony Mowbray's "Upward Spiral" is in freefall reverse.

No investment = a gate receipt today of £100k less than the same stage during Mogga's reign, where "House Full" signs were being dusted down.

Speculate to, erm, accumulate.

It's one thing appointing a manager in between windows.
We can all accept he can't change much in that time.
But to be into week 2 of the short window, no signings, it is time now for CC to show bottle.

Or - just perhaps - he feels he is untouchable with his cushty long contract. If that is how he feels, then we really are going down this season, and today's crowd will not be the lowest we see at ER this season.

On the other hand, we could ask the board to invest, and light the place up again with some imagination........

mr petrie must show bottle and back the manager give him funds , a stand doesnt win you points PLAYERS DO get players rodney , petrie gave calderwood the contract calderwood didnt give himself the contract , mr petrie gives us funds to perform on the pitch not a fancy stand that is empty blame the right people , calderwood might not be great appointment but who appointed him ? mr petrie

No dirty words on this board please!!!! How a so-called 'businessman' can do business without a calculated investment risk is beyond me.

i had to read this five times to make any sense of it. who is rodney? i think i get the general point of your post though. the stand was built as the planning permission was running out. I don't think we can blame mr Petrie for that decision as it is a cracking stadium that has made the hearts fans extremely jealous. However, yes, he really does need to show his hand and back the manager with funds for the on-park-product.

Speculation, personal opinion and some buzz phrases, this is like reading the daily record these days.

Awight RH, hope things are going well in Australia, it's been quiet without you. They've even organised "official" singing sections to try and compensate.

Hope you are enjoying NZ so far RH, glad you escaped safe and unharmed from that convict colony

Maybe it's just me, but the longer you spend away from home, the less important the Hibs become and also the more downright depressing and frankly seriously irritating all the doom and gloom posts on here become

first and only football game i haev paid to get into since august '08


keep forgetting that wellington play in the same league as the oz teams but steve-o from here is allegedly a bit of a fan according to his facebook updates


will probably go to a game if i ever get down that way although not sure i can support 2 teams in the same league even if they are in different countries

True enough.

All the more frustrating as the uglies are there for the taking this season and next. But we may not even be in the same division to take advantage!

Apologies for the lack of redtop humour in this post, I wasn't aware of that rule

A jambo might be jealous of our stadium but i'm jealous of their league position. Hibs are a study of vanity at times, with our state of the art training facilities and 20k capacity stadium. It's just a shame we've got a sheidt team full of wage theives and imposters.
