    The SFA claim this move will help keep scottish government funding, not if we write to our MP's in our thousands. Get your MP's name and pen a letter, they believe in votes and nothing else.

    Agree, I'll be putting my season ticket cash towards an annual trip to one of the tennis grand slams if this goes through.

    You would think that if any of this was nonsense, the parties involved and named would be falling over themselves to make a statement or hold a press conference to say so.
    it's not nonsense.It's a continuance of the same corruption

    One hundred per cent. It would be a very sad day to walk away, but I'd have no option.

    aye hardly a surprise either is it. things had been looking good, very good actualy but there was always that thought in the back of my mind that those with power in scottish football wouldnt let there beloved rangers slip away. its disguisting how corrupt it is

    If it's not true, I am sure someone will very quickly come out and say so tomorrow.

    Support 100%.

    Won't be back if Newco get in to the 1st division. And if Rod Petrie is behind the plan or even supportive of it I will support any and all sack the board demos.

    If I was involved with the Edinburgh Ice Hockey or Rugby team I'd be preparing a marketing campaign to attract a fair few thousand pissed off fitbaw fans with time on their hands.

    So folks - apologies for skipping but isn't there an online poll for all supporters for all clubs SFA, SPL to vote ?

    Arab Spring folks remember social networking & internet power !!

    We have won the first round, they are trying a second - we can still win for the good of scottish football and we can do this before they can even dine on succulent lamb ..
    "At the end of the day, we all aspire to bigger things in our lives but one thing I can truly say from my heart is if I never kick a ball for one of these bigger clubs I would be delighted to stay with Hibs for the rest of my career. That's how highly I regard this club." Ivan Sproule

    Basically what has happened today has let everyone know that Scottish football has been no more than a circus for years,
    Like the joke that the music industry has also become.

    Time To Bring Fitba Back To The Fans

    Latest developments and the reluctance to kick Huns out of the league, shows what the SFA \ SPL think of the fans. And non old firm teams.

    If you don't want to be part of a corrupt Scottish Fitba. I believe there is an alternative.

    Pissed off fans should start a breakaway club. A new national league. Out of SFA control.

    A new Hibs playing out of Meadowbank. A share in the new club would cost £10. Space for everybody.

    Yeah it won't be easy. It wasnt easy back in 1875. Problems back then - bigotry and cheating. Nothing has changed and the year is 2012.

    Hibs belongs to the fans. Not farmer and petrie.

    If they were admitted to Division One with promotion denied to them for winning the title for two seasons then I would be fine with that. The money generated over that period for that division would infact help Scottish football. If it is a simple scenario of them getting straight back into the SPL after one season then I am out. I was going to attend more this season and take my daughter who is 7 along more often aswell, but I will not do so, if they squirm their way back into the SPL after just one measily season. Cheating is cheating, liquidation is liquidation they no longer exist, there is no Rangers just Newco!!!

    I was about to propose plans to get additional revenue into Hibs.. but now if the club can't be bothered.. frankly I can't..

    We have seen the document suggesting that Rangers may well be placed in Division one as a Newco.

    Now we are not as yet thinking it is a done deal or that the member clubs of the SPL have made a plan but if they have Mr Petrie and Hibs are a team involved then I think we might see far worse repercutions than the impact of no Rangers.

    Time you stood up and started counting the views on here which clearly show the rules in place should be the ones that are used. what is frightning is some Hibbies on here who I know go week in week out are going to chuck it, I am going to chuck it, Hibs will lose far more by agreeing to any sort of change to division one.

    My order for the new top is on hold, lots of STs are on hold this site doesnt claim to speak for the entire support but as any survey you ask a group anda fairly large group is sitting on here. The Hibs support are actually disgusted at the proposal.

    You and I both know Hibs would never get the chance to just drop 1 league, we would be starting in 3rd you know it and we all on here know it.

    Bottom line though it is conjecture and what the support will do is conjecture we will wait and see but if it turns out you are not in favour of such a proposal then you can stand by your integrity statement, if this is happening then I think you will have no integrity with me and probably many of the support.

    This website has never seen so many people who argue about managers, tactics and players all pull together with almost the same views, there are some serious ST holders looking at calling it. This is not a case of having a go it is just to let you understand the depth of feeling over this, if your mantra is full punishment we will stand up and be counted with you and a 100% clear concience.

    If nowt to do with you or Hibs then please get involved in making sure the integrity you spoke of is carried out to letter to best you can.
    Disgusted at this latest news, I have watched Hibs for 48 years but this is worse than any defeat. I have already bought two season tickets for my sons but that will be my last contribution to Hibs if we vote Rangers in to the 1st division.

    This is a con.

    Either we the fans are being conned by our chairmen or someone at the BBC has been conned by an insider within the ibrox closet.

    I dearly hope its the latter or I'll be drinking latte in a quiet cafe somewhere in town at Saturday 3pm, or Sunday 12:30, or Saturday 12:15 or Sunday ...

    It occurs to me that perhaps the majority SPL clubs were happy to vote no to the spewco in the guise of sporting integrity, punt the problem down to the SFL, knowing full well that the probability was they would end up agreeing to have them in division 1 for that inevitable one off ‘novelty’ season. In reality, I do wonder how pleased any of the SPL clubs will be if spewco end up in the 3rd.

    Of course, the 3rd is where they should be (and where any other club would be already) but talk is cheap and 3 seasons without the income from games against the spewco will be expensive.
