Boycott? You wont have to worry about the first match....or the second match.......or any matches.If you can call them matches.Thousands will not come back.

Some will, but a mass boycott of the first games will get huge publicity.

[DH1875]

I'd just ask Rod to come out and tell us the truth and what's really going on. It's starting to get confusing for me. A wee statement from Rod would go a long way for me deciding what my Hibs future will be.

[Lofarl]

I will boycott Scottish Football totally. I can watch the EPL instead. If this goes through Hibs are dead to me as they are complicit in it.

realy cant see an email to any of they addresses making one bit of difference to who they reach, good on people if they want to try tho. Id say the only hope in this mess is for uefa or fifa to get involved but dunno if theve got previous of doing so in a situation like this

Trust me, if your MP suddenly has hundreds/thousands of emails he/she will act!!

we need to raise the bar on this argument

Is accepted and the Rangers Newco are admitted to the new first division, then ALL honest supporters should boycott ALL the first games of the season.
Hardly anybody showing up would send a clear message that the fans do not accept this.
Any other clubs supporters reading this and thinking the same .... spread the word.

Why just the first game? Don't go back at all and as I said in another thread fight for the resignation of the yes-men.

Right, I think the general consensus is that everyone is raging, so who do we vent this fury at, who do we tell our opinions to?

Stick the email addresses in this thread of everyone we should be emailing to complain.

I'll get it started with

Anyone got any SFA addresses, preferrably Regans?

Don't forget your councillors and MSP's

I am sure if it was done all the teams would have an emergency meeting as they could not survive if that was to continue, but you have to start somewhere.

[frazeHFC]

Can we not just all head to the SFA/SPL or whoevers headquarters and have one huge riot demo?

You'd be wasting your time as the payment plan has nothing to do with Hibs who already have the money up front from Zebra finance.

They will already be in div 1, the deed will have been done. The time to do something is now, not after the event.

[ronaldo7]

Have I got this right, it's been a long day.

The SPL have threatened the SFL clubs in that if they don't agree to Newco into the First Division they'll start SPL2.

Where are the extra clubs coming from to make up SPL2?

[alexedwards]

Said on the other thread the Dundee United fans were mad to run along and buy ST's based on the announcement - only when the deal is
done should those (who are serious) put their hands in the pocket. If this is going through then they think nothing of the average fan -
sporting integrity my ass.

[grunt]

The report is quite clear on why the clubs will vote for it. Whether the statement about the loss of revenue is true I'm not so sure, and I doubt we'll ever truly know. But the message is clear: "Will you accept Rangers in the First Division, or do you want to kiss goodbye to £16m a year into Scottish football?"

Several clubs got their fans to do this, Hibs included.

Perhaps but I would like to find out how to cancel it, if indeed it can be done and of course it makes a point to the board. Ultimately I would hope it doesn't come to that.

Certainly no knee-jerk reactions on this thread!




The usual culprits jumping on Petrie's back, before putting their brains in gear.

So your learned view of that document, and the outcome from it is ..?

[clerriehibs]

I don't understand ... WTF is this "integrity" thing that Petrie has been banging on about?

Ok so what can we all do now, the first game is where ALL supporters can make a concerted effort to show their feelings, I am open to any other suggestion that will show ALL supporters outrage.

I'd be quite happy to see the back of TV money and all the ***** that goes with it. Yes, all our clubs will be a lot poorer, but real football fans won't desert their clubs. Pandering to the OF yet again will see a significant number wave cheerio and that's pretty sad.

Complicit? Sounds like our chief executive is the friggin architect of it.

Yes because this Newco business and the mass opinion of 99% of Scottish Football fans is relatively unknown

As already mentioned, boycotting the first match will make 0 difference. All the fixtures, arrangements etc will already have been made for the Newco to be in the first division. If the SPL and SFL aren't willing to stick Rangers down where they should be when nothing is set in stone, they most definitely wont do anything after the first game of the season.

The humiliation of the cup final last month is so much worse than Rangers getting into the 1st Division.

Not for me, I am used to Hibs letting us down on the park but this is just corrupt. I didn't think I would get over the final but time is a healer and there is always the next game to look forward to. Would rather hibs spent less on signings than attempt to buy rangers fans money.

[sevenzero]

Like what has already been posted , rod needs to come out and let the fans know what's happening ! I allready have a season ticket for this coming season , but there is no danger I would have renewed had I heard about this carve up !!!! That missing 2500 season tickets from last year will go AWOL if this goes through .

'Integrity' of his 'investment'?

[LancashireHibby]

I'd back it. Would need to somehow persuade other clubs to do similar and set up a league completely separate from the SFA.

Not at all wasting your time if you have been mis-sold a product, in fact every SPL could be on a sticky wicket if it's shown they have lied to there fans to get ST sales.

The fact it's on direct debit gives you additional security and protection.

I'm completely finished with the game in Scotland, should this go through. You must make up your own mind what you do.
