    The man's fake.

    Happy to take the credit when everything's good, disappears when the going gets tough. He even had the audacity to fine Riordan for speaking out about the state of the pitch.

    Poisonous and looks after HIMSELF.

    And dinnae get me started on his waterworks during the DVD.

    As long as he's daeing his thing, board members are puppets.
    What an utterly clueless post on so many levels

    Exactly what credit has he taken

    Leanne is the public face of Hibs and as Chairman he is trotted out when he needs to be as he represents the majority shareholders interests

    Rod Petrie could have earned many more times what he has with Hibs with no aggravation, he wasn't someone no-mark, he was a well respected and connected accountant and Chief Executive of an Investment Bank.

    He was originally put into run the club by STF and stayed around because he grew attached to the club.

    In exactly what way is he poisonous, because he wont turn round and drop his drawers to some of the half wit ideas that have crossed his and Leanne's desk.

    He then conducts himself with a bit dignity on the clubs behalf, unlike some of those purveyors of idiocy

    His job, like the boards isn't to be popular it is to make hard decisions to take the club forward whilst retaining financial control.

    It gets on my goat that because folk either individually or as a group make decisions that folk don't like that they are called puppets or worse.

    It wont bother them one iota and makes the name callers look childish and boorish.

    Its not all been sweetness and light but I have absolutely no doubt that post Duff & Gray everything the various boards of Hibs has done has been within the financial constraints they set themselves in the best interests of the club

    I wouldn't swap where we are now for any club in Scotland, including Celtic & The Rangers as I wouldn't want their baggage and prefer our quiet dignity.
