They truly must be having a laugh by keeping this ST advertisement up. We're in a steady descend, one that is years old and with a chance of relegation. Is this the potential of my beloved football club?
Watch good football as well. Indeed, that may be possible if decent players were brought in. Sadly there is no correlation between our devoted support and both, the potential of the club being realised and the watching good football... Looking at trends you could say because of their ineptitude, there is a clear correlation between our support and being given a shell of a club, and garbage football to watch.

The creativity being demonstrated here in finding something new to hang the same old stuff on is truly impressive.
Every gimmick hungry yob,
Digging gold from rock and roll
Grabs the mic to tell us,
He'll die before he's sold.

We have an owner who is never near the club. We have a CEO who is only around half the week. Even then I'm not sure if he ever goes near East Mains. It starts at the top for me.

I see this as being the exact same as Fenlon leaving. After 2 SC finals, 1 europa league demolition and visibly building a very unbalanced team, there are still fans that post Fenlon vs Butcher. Where would we be if we had Fenlon? Other fans are aware that he, combined with Calderwood have taken this club back years.
This is the same, many fans will back the team until the end of the season - which I am going to do but I will not be positive about this embarrassment, sorry I can't be. After which, relegated or not, many will continue to back the team positively either through a false sense of achievement (staying up), a false sense of hope of change (years of this, so what is the chance it will be different this time around?), and after that, loyalty, which must surely be wearing thin for many.
People pointing out the decay get called scaremongerers until what they saw happening, happens. Some will stand on the "we'll be fine" and "give them a chance next year" bench (give us Fenlon back types), some will realise what has happened and change their mind. I am stating a opinion based on facts, some will agree now, some will agree later, and some will never agree. I just hope for the sake of our club, those wanting change don't get shot down by others simply out of sense of pride or a clan attitude. I hope change does occur without intervention and that we stay up.
Asking people to stay positive and just think about Saturday - nothing, facts, suggestions, or evidence shows that a big positive crowd helps this team. However, I'll willing to be less negative until then. I just hope people are willing to be more negative afterwards and not get caught up in the Groundhog Day effect.

It's Petrie and Farmer that should 'realise the potential of Hibernian FC', not the fans.

Looking at the thread title I was foolish enough to think there might be even a single constructive idea but there isn't one. I'll know next time.
