I live in Fife, I work in Halifax, West yorkshire. I travel up the road every sat morning to watch the cabbage, I have a family a laddie at 14 and a daughter of 5 years old. My family is 5 generations of green and white(and not those unwashed rednecks that stole, yes stole part of our club and then have the extreme brass neck to sing "and if you know, your history!!) Don't talk to me about commitment. Seen it through thick and thin before,i was there as a season ticket holder when we went 1-0 down to stranraer at easter road in the first div (their goal was a screamer!!) and i'll always be there, whats the alternative? the jambos? ha ha ha ha ha, not in my family!!, but, my laddie at 14 who has been misguided by me i try to teach him about awareness and positional cover on top of his game, then he sits and asks me what the hell are the hibs players doing in an spl match? sick of it now guys!!!

Sharing your pain.
Also lived south of the border for a while, came up for the match and spent money I never had. Including another relegation battle at Dumbarton (we won 2-0, think it was Rice and Irvine that scored).
However, I've never felt so despondant with the apathy and complete lack of interest that is threaded through every part of our FOOTBALL club.
We are a FOOTBALL club run by people who have little or no interest in the game. How many of our ex-directors pay to come to games and how many of the present ones would stick their hands in their pockets and pay their entrance money if they were no longer picking up a wage.
Ask an accountant what he'd consider a better season - a financial loss and finish top half or a financial gain and finish bottom half. Ask a football fan the same and you'll get a different answer.
The Boards silence is deafening!

Can you imagine it? " If we get relegated..."
No danger should they be talking in those terms.

It's more than a distinct possibilty and may serve to fire a shot across the bows of those players who think "we're to good to go down".
Yes a lot may be being said behind closed doors but after the dross we've been dealt the last couple of weeks why not come out and talk to us.

You want Hibs to be publicly preparing for relegation?
What kind of message would that send out to our opponents, our fans and our players?
Particularly our opponents?

Thats why Rangers are claiming the mantle of "the most successful club in the world". In football terms, and honours won, they may well be.
To the OP I would ask when Hibs were last "in the hands of Hibs supporters"?

.......I think the arguemnt however is their ability to make informed and intelligent footballing decisions as balance sheet experts rather than lovers of the beautiful game.The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits
The trouble with referees is that they know the rules, but they do not know the game

IMO you can dance round this for as long as you want the bottom line is STF and Rod are not going anywhere soon ,changes will be made when and if these people think its appropriate , if your following Hibs and your no happy youve got a choice to make , some have already done it with their feet,
its as simple as that.

I came on hear months ago suggesting that we need Hibs supporters on the board in place of Hyland and Linsday and got slaughtered by others who claimed that this was an old fashioned view and you don't have to be a fan to be a director.
Tom Hart, Dougie Cromb, Tom O'Malley Kenny McLean and even Kenny Waugh were all long term Hibs fans and never took a penny from the club. (KW may have tried to defraud the taxman, but the money still went into the club)
I wonder if the same can be said for the current mob.
