LOL Wee bit of a diversion from the usual “corporate” offering.
Thought ‘Grant Stott’ was excellent as Dougray.

[Chorley Hibee]

Oh dear.....not for me I'm afraid.

As long as it entices some extra season ticket holders though.

[Vault Boy]

Urm... Different.

Sales are sales, though.

[04Sauzee]

I actually thought it was OK, a bit different, engaging with Hibs fans and a bit humour. Getting slated on their twitter feed but some folk will moan at anything. If you don't like it is there a way really any need to take to Twitter to slate it?

[Centre Hawf]

Not to be mean cause clearly folk have worked hard on that but a part from Dougray Scott that was fairly cringeworthy. Also is it just me or was there zero actual proper information other than "Chance for meet n greet" and "First to be back"? I should hope I'd be the first back if I've bought a season ticket.


Poor communication for me.

[Glory Lurker]

I liked it!

It's twitter, probably one of the more toxic social media platforms imo.

Fwiw I thought it was quite funny.

We seem to have been stuck at over 10,500 for a while now Can’t see this changing that

Yeah not my cup of tea but not everything has to be, not that important really. Who are they? Are they comedians, on the tele or a comedy duo we’ve just put in front of the camera?

[Saturday Boy]

I blame the lack of a proper grounding in English Literature.

Surely everyone should know about Mrs Malaprop in Sheridan’s “The Rivals” ?

What are young people reading nowadays?

Absolutely no idea who they are, it's not great but it's not terrible. I like it when Hibs try somethinf different

[SouthMoroccoStu]

You know what, it’s something different
Can’t do the history/family/pride stuff every season
Good marketing gets people talking

[MartinfaePorty]

I actually thought it was quite funny, but agree if the message is the benefits of buying a season ticket then that was a very small part of the video.

And bad marketing also gets people talking.....thankfully

The idea is great and I'm happy Hibs did it but good lord that is some of the cringiest *humour* I've ever witnessed

I'm being a grumpy **** but how can they look at themselves in the mirror after that

I blame the parents. Should be bringing them up on re-runs of Nellie Pledge.

[wookie70]

Different and light hearted. Not many Scottish teams will have Holywood stars doing a turn for them and whoever the other two were. Hope they did it for their love of Hibs and if so thanks for your efforts.

Indeed. And let’s not get started on The Rev. Spooner. Without him, we might never have heard of Ronnie Barker.

[madhatter]

Dont see the problem with it. Wasn't very funny or anything but bit of a laugh nevertheless. Good of them all to be involved - nice of Dougray to do something with Hibs. Seems to be quite an avid fan.

[grunt]

I liked it. A bit of fun during these dark times. Football fans can be miserable people sometimes.

Sorry but it’s cringeworthy. Whoever sanctioned this is in the wrong job

qed!

[Vault Boy]

I don't like it but I find it completely inoffensive. Most fans on social media are just taking the piss a wee bit, which I think is fine, but there's a handful who are once again taking it way too far.

Folk talking about people getting sacked for it, tagging members of media staff directly and properly going at the club. They are completely unhinged and they don't seem to realise that they are in fact the true embarrassments to our club. Self awareness is so often lacking in these people.

I'm just hoping, like anybody else, that it helps to shift some season tickets. It's probably helpful to have a broadchurch of marketing approaches.

Bit harsh.

It’s a bit of fun, something different.

[Bishop Hibee]

The responses on Twitter are more toxic than when we got relegated. Some absolute tubes with a bloated sense of their own self-importance.

It’s a bit of lighthearted nonsense promoting ST sales not an attempt to remake Citizen Kane.

[offshorehibby]

Some people need to lighten up up and have a giggle FFS

This is the kind of thing I'm talking about tbh, out of proportion.

Bonnie who?

[007]

I thought getting Dougray Scott mixed up with Grant Stott was quite funny, the malapropisms not so much. Still, it seems to be getting a bit of attention though so job done in that respect.

Nothing wrong with trying something a bit lighthearted, a wee promo with Duncan and Judy Murray would be decent.

I'd hate to run the Hibs twitter account I really would. You should see it on match day.
