I don’t do Twitter but wonder if this whole discussion might have been avoided if the original teaser tweet had said something like ‘Good news re sponsorship - details released at 2pm’
This is how it feels

Especially when Hibs opted not to have a sponsor for two seasons. How much did that cost the club?

Another thing that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere is the club tweets in the build up to the final - showing the players getting dolled up, arriving at Hampden, checking the pitch, etc.
I thought they were spot on.

Of course the people responding are part of the subject, several posts reference them including many of yours.
Are you now dictating the thread course, to use your own sort of dialogue?
I’m off out now, talk soon.

A shower of punters once stood and told everyone who would listen that HSL was a Ponzi scheme for STF and petrie to line their pockets it hampered the take up of HSL hugely so much so they failed in their target before STF sold up to Ron.
We now have a shower of punters chucking abuse at Martin Boyle winning player of the year the week after a cup final we lost, a player judging by this season we’d be worse off if he decided to up and leave, these shower of punters could be the difference between Boyle staying with us to Jan for example or jumping at the first offer that comes, the manager wants to sign jackson Irvine there’s a shower of punters chucking abuse at him after he scored for Australia midweek again could be the difference between signing on and not.
What I’m trying to get at is the actions of a shower of punters on twitter could hamper the progress of the club and managers plans so should be worthy of lengthy debate on here IMO without threats of thread closures

Tbh. I can’t recall the social media pre the final - unfortunately the result will have put that into a zone that no one will care about ..
We’ve been largely excellent on social media for a good number of years .. we’ve obviously got a someone temporarily in while they fill the roles that are available ..and it shows..doesn’t have the smarts and connection with the fan base that we’ve traditionally had in recent seasons

Look at the opening post. I'm not dictating anything and I've no idea what my sort of dialogue is.

If you really think an eclectic mix of volunteers from a range of age groups, locations, and sociopolitical backgrounds are carrying some kind of unified agenda against certain viewpoints on a football forum, then I'm not sure what to say.

Part of that you’re not understating? Again, asking in your own preferred style.

I'm flattered that you're so interested in my writing "style". In my defence, having lived in France for 17-18 years (almost a third of my life), English has become pretty much a second language for me and I've never been very good at switching quickly from one language to another - it's like turning a cruiseliner through 180°.Last edited by Peevemor; 05-06-2021 at 03:48 PM.

And if Hibs really didn’t want chat on Twitter good or bad then I don’t think Tweeting is the thing for them.

Why not drum rolls and constant long drawn out reveals for ST renewal numbers? I mean our renewals will amount to more cash than this sponsorship deal.
Funny thing is I couldn't give a toss about our sponsor, even more so after the tweets. It shows the dark side to social media and marketing done on the platform. This was clearly a fishing exercise to increase interest in the eventual tweet. Like most social media attention, doesn't seem like it mattered whether it was good or bad attention.
The abusive tweets, the arguments on here show me that it probably wasn't worth it. Time will tell because covid obviously impacted club plans but, for me, club interaction with fans has gone backwards. All been about securing sponsors, which is clearly important but so are fans, especially when they've paid for STs but never been to ER. Involving said fans in fishing exercise to please new sponsor isn't great on early bird deadline day.

HSL is a separate entity with a separate twitter account so hibs don’t do the teasing for them, they aren’t teasing the release of season tickets because what kind of a tease can they do when the object is to take your money....drum roll please we’ll be ready to take your cash at 2pm.. it’s silly
There was some supporters rightly or wrongly unhappy with what hibs done with the front of shirt space the last 2 seasons some had it down as a cover up because they couldn’t find a sponsor, some other fans would be unhappy if we had bookies or alcohol companies on our shirts the club has sorted all that and probably thought some people at least would be happy and the ones who don’t particularly care wouldn’t mind a little fan fare to introduce the company and maybe pat the guys involved on the back a little for securing some much needed cash I.e gregg mcewan who is quite happy with himself on twitter getting this over the line.
The club hasn’t done anything wrong here and is being battered unfairly.

Battered unfairly? Apart from the small scale abuse on twitter, where is this battering occurring?
Don't know the guy but ofcourse Greg McEwan would be patting himself on the back. He's interim CEO probably looking to secure the job and salary full time. Is he being battered online? Seen a lot of "well done" and "fantastic stuff".
