I'd take him, lets face it, he has kept the yams In a few games recently, otherwise I think they would have had a fair few hammerings.

I'd rather have Mannus from the saints

[greenpaper55]

In your wildest dreams did you ever think it would get so bad for the Yams ?, i voted for them to disappear off the face of the earth but what is happening now might be even better !. As the season progresses it could get to the point of their season becoming farcical if it's not already.

Administration was on the cards for a good while before it actually happened so yes I did think it would get this bad. Indeed I was also hoping for a lot worse ie. liquidation, but I suppose I can settle for seeing them struggle in this manner. As long as it lasts for a long, long time

Hospitality at the PBS is not going very well that their 2-for-1 £150 offer is being further discounted via the kickback raffle according to the snippets over the road. If sales don't improve in the next 36 hours, BDO will be accepting £50 a head for their normally priced £150 a head hospitality. I thought BDO were supposed to be protecting revenues, not destroying them. They truly are in the ****.

JKB and Hearts have once again got together to offer members the chance to win hospitality tickets, this time for the game against Partick Thistle on Sunday, January 5th. and the tickets include:

Arrival at 12:30 pm
Drinks reception
Chance to meet former players
Prime seating in the Gorgie Suite hospitality area
Betting available in Suite
Half time refreshments including pies, tea and coffee
Pre-match meal with wine, tea and coffee
Complimentary bar throughout the day
Man of the match presentations
Suite closes one hour after full time

Initially, there are five prizes of a pair of hospitality tickets on offer....Because this game is a 2-for-1 offer, these packages would cost £75 per person...if enough interest in raffle tickets, more prizes will be added to the draw. If raffle ticket sales are higher than 155, then for every complete 31 sold after that an extra prize of a pair of hospitality tickets will be added to the draw....Tickets are a fiver each
Raffle ticket sales will close on Saturday, 28 December at 9 pm UK time......The draw will take place shortly after that.

Reported attendance was 13,684. I've just been told it was actually just over 10,000.

Just watched all the goals from the SPFL highlights. Away end looked empty and there were big gaps in the asbestos stand.

Why would they do this?? More than 3,500 more. Sounds dodgy yet again?

They count season ticket holders even if they don't show up (Celtic do this as well).

Is there any reason for them to report bigger attendances? Other than trying to keep up the 'big team' charade?

Yup, my brother's a Yam ST holder and he (with a few others) went off to play snooker instead!



PS as an aside, this isn't the 1st time this season he/they have found something "better" to do and he's starting to lose the "keep the DD's going" argument with his wife

And isn't it likely that some season ticket holders bought more than one ST? One at the usual time and then another when BDO revealed Vlad had run off with the money? So there has to be an element of double counting in the 10.5k figure too.

They have 10,500 season ticket holders - a few thousand of these were bought to save the club as an extra and have been empty all season.

So I doubt we will see a league attendance reported lower than 10,500 all season.

The worrying aspect for them is the lack of walk ups and the good work Locke is doing ripping the support apart and making them painful to watch

And to think they have a congratulatory thread to themselves over by on getting 13000 yesterday, and not one dissenting voice. Truly deluded

So a quick back of packet calculation, for £50, BDO are giving a comfy seat (£30), pre-match meal and wine (£15), half time pies and tea (£5), and a free bar, that's some deal. Surely BJ is a Hibbie.

Was speaking to a ****bo tonight who reckons McDonald would not sign for Hibs as he is a huge Jambo. He also doesn't rate him.

Despite what many fans think, and yams are thicker than most, not many players put the team they support before their livelihoods. Denis Law didn't knock back Man City, and didn't pull out of scoring the goal for City that relegated United.

If Hibs came calling, and were the only ones to do so or had the best wages offer for him, McDonald would sign for us.

[Thecat23]

MacDonald isn't that good a keeper if you ask me. His positioning for a lot of goals is bad.

But from what I'm hearing Big Ben won't be going anywhere.

Thats great news if what you are hearing is correct.

[jonty]

For the record, I'm not saying Macdonald is a better keeper than BW and should come to hibs. I'm simply saying that he's been their best player and helped keep the odd point and goal difference down.

I don't see how that could be a tax dodge as the bigger they claim the attendance to be the more income tax and VAT they would be due to pay. If anything you would expect them to illegally declare smaller crowds and pocket some cash to avoid tax.

The police are always given the true attendance. I can assure you they are always a good bit lower than reported.

They (should) have already paid all taxes on ST money. They (should) only be paying tax on walk-up tickets. They only declare large/sell-out crowds as they are deluded fannies. Many years ago all teams under-declared crowds as a tax dodge. Often sell-out crowds at Darkhead were reported as 5,000 less.

I heard from someone inside Tynie the other night that the direct debits tailed off in December. The fans are rapidly losing faith and have basically thrown in the towel.
