    Now that's a big claim, poverty would not have been eradicated with independence. Going by some the comments on the Living Wage thread many Hibs fans support paying as little as possible to staff. So I doubt that many would agree food banks would not been needed in a country basing its future on declining oil revenues and cuts in corporation tax

    Time to give HoH some credit...

    Hands On Hibs also appreciates all the assistance we have received from the Board and the staff at the football club over the last few days. This is a great example of the Hibernian community coming together.

    Methinks they have had their erse well and truly skelped..

    I don't understand how he can steal something that a company he owns bought, reconstructed and paid for.

    lack of professionalism has embarrassed the cause of both these organisations ...they will never get the fans base behind them - too political and almost childish communications

    100% spot on, they have alienated the very people they need to make this work and turned their campaign into a bloody joke.

    So he's using East Mains as a cash cow for his family AND he's trying to steal our stadium?

    Any evidence?

    Was toying with the idea of posting another poll to see how they are progressing in winning people over on here since the recent communications but didn't fancy falling into any of the categories mentioned above.

    I think they have dug a big hole that's going to be difficult to get out off, the recent tweets if true are playground stuff and maybe even actionable if STF could be bothered?

    It's another bizarre turn of events.

    If BuyHibs wanted to be taken seriously they really should have positioned them as far away from HOH as possible. One of the directors taking to social media to make claims about STF stealing from Hibs is bewildering. If this is happening/going to happen then make the evidence public, failing to do that just continues to alienate people and comes across as Daily Mailesque 'what iffery?'.

    It seems that the guy was asking Andrew Sibley questions relating to the q + a that Ashley did on here. So he has been called an "agent of the board" and STF is stealing/has stolen (they weren't clear) Easter Road. I can't help think these groups are linked, however much they play it down.

    It's worth mentioning that Andrew didn't really answer him other than in riddles.

    They don't really help themselves.

    Maybe HoH are the ''guerrilla marketing'' wing of BuyHibs.

    A joke of a campaign by people who have not answered one of their allegations. Its dead in the water now in my opinion, i'm certainly not interested in anything they may have to say about Hibs now.

    I have to say, i started off on hearing both groups arrival as being positive for the club and support. As time has gone on its evident that there is nothing good that these groups can bring.

    The biggest problem any group or person has is how split a support we seem to have at the moment. We would be a nightmare if we were fan owned as we seem pretty split when it comes to most things

    Wrong. You've said this earlier in the thread as well. Complete nonsense. During the meeting with Hands On Hibs and the board, no legal action was used as a threat by Rod Petrie or anyone else. It would only have come from Rod Petrie anyway as he was the man in control and asking HOH if the tactic of targeting Tom Farmer could be stopped. All this went on while Leanne Dempster who runs the show if you listen to many on here sat on her hands.

    It seems they have now accused him of theft as well.

    What point are you actually trying to make here ??? Dempster doesn't have a real job ? Petrie is still fully in control ??

    Leeann Dempster is responsible for the day-to-day running of the club. Dealing with unfounded attacks on STF, who has no official capacity at Hibs, is outwith her remit. It's normal that RP, as co-accusee, was the one doing the talking.

    It's not that hard to understand.

    The bit in bold... are you saying that RP did ask the HibiLeaks stuff to be stopped?

    If so, that is the essence of what I am saying. If not, and you were (or know someone who was) at the meeting, then I apologise.

    That sounds a bitter response and part of the reason the support is not supporting buyhibs.

    Leanne dempster is running the footballing side. Rod Petrie is representing sir Tom farmers interests ie the ownership

    another pop at hibs.....getting boring

    Scattergun approach, accusation after accusation but never any answers when questioned on anything that's relevant?

    He ASKED if the direct tactic of targeting Farmers business's ect could be stopped. I repeat, no threats of legal action were made, like you hinged at in an earlier post. Or someone did, apologies if it wasn't you. Hands on Hibs representatives agreed to this after consulting all other members of the group. The promises were. The board would publish a strategy for the future of the football club and this would be published before Xmas, also the AGM would be in this time frame. None of these have happened as I'm sure you are aware..
