Great idea this and I hope the stewards have been briefed that some of us will be entering the stadium with cans, bottles and suchlike.

I've blown a fortune on Christmas presents and nights out so this Food bank is very timely.

Thanks to all concerned.

D-C see post 784, I think the collection points are outside the stadium so shouldn't be a problem re the stewards

Food banks don't work like that, these dare to donate food. If you want/need food you have you to go to the charities

[offshorehibby]

Why wait till a game of football to donate to foodbanks

Im afraid the food bank thing reeks of the moral high ground.

"We want what's best for Hibs and we demand that what's best for Hibs happens and that the lying cheating owner gives the club to the community..sort of..but also makes sure it has lots of cash and that we win the league, without him in charge..sort of, but we don't want to be in charge..we just want someone else, who we don't really know who they are in charge. But whoever they are they better be good or we will be very cross ! Oh and we give food to the poor so we must be nice."

That's probably a bit harsh..but to me that's the way the HOH groups comes across.

You should let the boys standing out in the cold on Saturday collecting Food for those less fortunate that's what you think of them.

He is right though, using foodbanks to justify there campaign Against farmer is wrong.

The foodbanks are a good idea, using them as a reason to restart a campaign of spreading lies about tom farmer is not.

And accusing STF of doing 'nothing' for the community is pure spite.

One sentence in the HoH statement

" And despite the Club's origins they show scant interest in putting ANYTHING back into the community. "

I take it HoH are unaware Hibs have been running a Community Trust for about 20 years , providing offices for the Homeless World Cup,
providing accommodation and support for the Hibernian Historical Trust, to name but a few.

100% correct!In addition I know from personal experience that STF contributes to a significant number of charities most notably Prostate Scotland as does his wife to charities to benefit the elderly.These people are either totally ignorant or conducting spiteful and petty personal vendettas.If they and/or Buyhibs get anywhere near control of our Club,I'll never return to Easter Road after 54 years of holding a Season Ticket.

They are not ignorant, they know exactly what they are doing. They are preying on the ignorant and the clinically stupid.

They are now alienating supporters that may still have had an open mind about them .They really now should accept they are going about this in the wrong manner I am surprised someone of Pat Stanton's stature continues to support them Thier Dirty Tricks campaign is flawed and whoever is advising them on this has taken the wrong tact .

This is hands on hibs ronnie, pat stanton has nothing to do with them. He is, or at least was involved with buy hibs, though he hasn't said much about it since the launch last month.

TBF, a gathering of a few thousand people doesn't happen very often in Leith, so it makes a lot of sense.

And that says it all in terms of where we are as a society right now. Rolling back the years in terms of poverty and deprivation.

100% agree. The support that the NE Edinburgh foodbank gets when it holds collections at places like Tesco in Leith and Asda is simply phenomenal and shows how much people care. But it’s OK, Osborne says the economy is in good shape, the bad news is he was thinking of George Foulkes when he said it. .

But foodbanks are merely putting a sticking plaster on the problem of a gaping wound, it will take major surgery to even begin to tackle the core issues, just as you have highlighted SFH.
