Sorry, farmer will be here forever?

Don't think there's any need for the smart arse reply.

I understand most of it was used to pay historical debt/loans.

Can someone remind me what the "basic and polite questions" were?

It would seem to me that allegations of impropriety have been made which has been refuted by Rod. So its up to them (HoH or whoever they are) to now offer their evidence that Rod is lying.

PS Rod needs to spell check his mail, or have someone read it for him.

All this letter writing stuff lends itself to copying mistooks - all you need is one crop typist...

True transparency would have a scanned / photo versions or original letter and response - has that been shared (sorry too busy with kids to investigate - call it lazy journalism ;)

I think there was a need for a better reply than the one you gave.

Q: Who is going to replace Farmer.
A: Somebody else.

If you're going to argue for change, and convince others you have the right answers, you'll need to do better than that.

You're talking about tearing down one regime, with no clear idea what to do next. I'd rather have Farner than Anyone But Farmer.

That doesn't make it much better, or i need new specs.

I may be wrong as my memory is now getting worse but did STF not buy the club from the receiver after Edinburgh Hibernian PLC (i think) went bust. £320,00 rells a bell. Then he split the club from ER (later to put it back) for a move to green belt land at Straiton.

There needs to be a plan for life after farmer. Right now there's not one that I'm aware of, that's something this new hands on hibs, kanes group and others are trying to address just now.

After farmer leaves fir whatever reason hibs will continue, I know that even if I don't know who will take over.

You obviously think farmer will live forever but I disagree.

Ok then. I didn't say Farmer would live forever, but you seem to believe I think that. Makes me wonder how much thought you've given anything, other than that something has to change.

Why is the onus on the club to disprove spurious claims made by others? Surely those making the accusation should be able to support their statement(s) with evidence, or take their claims (with their evidence) to the relevant authorities?

Because these claims have the potential to cause negativity and uncertainty. IMO that is exactly what they are designed for, the longer they go on and are added to the more chance of people believing them. The club could shut this down quickly IMO and shut these people up giving them zero credibility in the future. The club is struggling in this league, they are trying to rebuild everything so they don't need these sorts of claims, I would imagine it would be easy for the club to prove where the monies from the stones went for example.

It's been asked for.

There's nothing here that suggests the money was earmarked for any particular project.........

After the cost of the granite, the engraving and the installation I'm not convinced there would have been a massive amount left over tbh. I find it a lot easier to believe this is nonsense designed to play on the emotional involvement of the fans who bought one (myself included), compared to the allegation that STF and RP appropriated the surplus for themselves.

The allegation is that the money was to go towards a Hibs Museum but didn't. There's no mention of a museum in the launch and I have never heard it suggested until that Tweet.

So in a word........ No

He did, got the last 20 minutes, not much doing in game but it was more about him just getting a wee run out, will play part in a bounce game tomorrow and more than likely play as a tralist again next week, just needs the match fitness/sharpness plus his training through the week.

Ah. I would have been amazed if you did, but for a minute there I thought at least one of us had lost the plot.

Watched him at HT J and he was pinging them in from all over the pitch hitting the back of the net each time, his only chance he got when he came on was a free kick and he hit the wall with it folk will disagree with me on this but he still has it, he just needs someone to take a chance on him and hopefully after a few games to get back in the sharpness of things he could do a job for someone, but he enjoyed the wee 20 minutes he got,smile on his face again.

It's an opinion presented as fact, and like the HoH claims of financial skulduggery, it is presented with no evidence. I think this guy is out to make trouble, supporting his pals at HoH with airtime in a national newspaper. The questions about "where's the money gone" can be easily answered - have been answered by people on this very thread - but rather than study the real facts presented in the financial statements, he has continued to sow seeds of doubt.

I suspect this is exactly the sort of negative rubbish that Leeann was talking about in her post. He's stirring it. IMO.

Exactly.The people involved should be very careful with their unfounded defamatory statemens .They have no real interest in Hibs only in self promotion.I've had a season ticket for over 40 years and am also a shareholder and while I'm totally appalled at the present state of the club,I would walk away for life I any of these people got within half a mile of Easter Road.They have nothing to offer the Club but to try to blacken the reputations of others for their own ends.

I see STF has taken the time to send hand written letters to the 2 wee bairns that delivered letters to his house on behalf of HOH the other day.
