Because then everyone would just have 10 James Collins and a goalie

Sad stuff that this is the reaction to someone's third post (1st thread outside of their welcoming one). May all be hilarious and you teaming up to have a wee laugh to yourselves is great and all, but my statement of 95% was virtually accurate. Saying 95% of all of my posts, which I make it to be 366, include "95%" is what I'd expect from an infant to be honest. And is, as expected, totally unsound and wrong. All that was lacking was "why not 6.9 million" followed by laughter to sum this up.

Fair enough though, I'm not going to be scared off by anybody on here. I just hope that the guy who initiated this thread isn't. The turnover of people joining and leaving must be quite high. As long as we all **** our pants laughing, right?

So 1.9 m isn't a suspicious amount? Strange figure to reach randomly.

95% suspicious you might say.

Why is 1.9m suspicious? It is 95% of 2million but so what?

You're right, it's not. I'm sorry I even questioned it.

Why do you think its a pretty pointless thread ??

what do you think the first team budget is at Hibs ??

Would not be 5.1m as Hibs do not spend that amount on the entire wage bill of the club

No idea. Is it 1.9 million? Otherwise, what`s the point of picking that figure out of thin air and arguing about how to spend it. I think that`s the point he is making.

The figure is a pretty accurate estimate Green Goblin based on the accounts of the club. I have read a lot on here over the years about budgets etc.

i was interested to hear the thoughts of supporters on how they would spend the budget number.

A first team squad of 25 players on 75k pa more or less hits the 1.9m number.

Was a genuine questions with a very realistic number calculated from the published results.

Accounts are audited and not made up internet numbers.

all i am trying to do is to have a chat about how to spend what is Hibs budget number on a first team squad.

if thats not of interest dont worry about replying

[Cropley10]

Utterly pointless thread. Firstly how is this (95% suspicious) figure of &1.9m arrived at? Historical accounts? Except the income of the club will be affected by relegation.

However we don't (really) buy players so this £1.9 m figure is really a wages figure.

And we don't know what players are on, nor what we could offer them.

The bigger question is will we have more to spend on player wages than the puddle drinking, charity stealing, debt dodging, WW1 winning crooks up the road.

Will be interesting to get the OPs view on this based on his obvious football knowledge.

1.9M ?????. Is my paranoia setting still on high

[BT58]

Perhaps the op has got the figure by £380 X 5000
The number of ST'S sold ( but that is full price and no concessions )

To save me from having to go off and redo the calculation, how did you reach the figure of £1.9 million? How did you separate out the playing budget from other wage costs, and how did you separate out the first team squad from the others?

In any case, if your number is accurate in terms of previous years, IMHO there is not the remotest prospect of us having £1.9 million to spend this coming year.
