    We should adapt it to the times and say we like, or sometimes quite like Dundee.

    Could we "hate" Banks O Dee?

    No axe to grind with them really but it fits and I always think they sound more like a folk song title than a name for a football team.

    Good badge though.

    We could also change it to Livi. Not got a problem with Livi either though apart from the name if their ground.

    I could easily hate iced tea - basically because it's not coffee or beer.

    Or even Ice T - rapper turned unconvincing TV detective?

    Surely somebody from Dundee United would turn up to help with the shortfall. If they are bringing nobody then you might have a point.
    They will but it will not make up for the shortfall. Even if Utd brought 1500 fans over two games you will have 3000 tickets at normal pricing. Hospitality will be nowhere near sold out and it would be highly unlikely the game would be on tv so no extra income there. Plus the home end would not sell out.

    Two sold out matches and hospitality at cat A prices. Both games live on TV. Increase revenue from advertising etc. You do the maths.

    The position of being Edinburgh's Premier club could mean that we get more hospitality for other games which might have gone to them. That would make up the shortfall.

    Let them get relegated for 10 years for all I care. By the time they get back we could be out of sight.

    Hospitality is sold out most games, certainly for Saturday 3pm games. And do we get extra money for games being on TV? I thought it was one big pot but maybe I'm wrong. We will maybe lose a couple of thousand at the gate if they go down but I can live with that. They certainly wouldn't be wanting us to stay up if the boot was on the other foot. Get them down.

    Good shout.

    It brought to mind Mr T, the unlikely crimefighter and all round good guy who always looked like he was dressed for a particularly garish cocktail party rather than battling to save us all from dubious villains.

    He is built like the sort of guy Hearts are usually fooled into believing is a famous striker so it might work.

    Nooe, you’re spot on. We don’t get any more money from league games being shown live, we just get the central payment.

    Just dawned on me that we would lose a cat a game, even Hibs supporters pay more for that, so could lose a bit of revenue there. Still say stuff them. Hope they get relegated.

    We don't get extra cash for being on TV. It's shared out amongst the clubs.

    Well weve never really hated Dundee. What other team fits the song though?
    Airdrieee maybe? Or now we're going up in the world under Ron how about PSG?

    Can I just make it clear that I want Hear7s s relegated and to spend at least 5 years struggling to get promoted.

    I was merely looking at it from a financial perspective. I know which the board would choose.

    It would be funny if they went down. And thered be plenty of enjoyment to be had in the pub and in the playground. But do I really want them to go down with the benefit of cold logic? Probably not.

    Relegated and spend the next 30 years down there, totally depleting their fan base so they're on a par with Edinburgh City but regularly draw them in cup competitions.

    I've thought about it too much.

    Couldn’t agree more. I wish Ron had said at the AGM “in order to reach our 17000 season ticket aim and cement our position as Edinburgh’s premier club, we are exploring a short team loan of half our first team to Hamilton FC”

    We all accept we will lose income because of their incompetence. The one bright light is for every Cat A game we lost they would be losing 3. Without considering any other factors they will be down 3 times as much as us. The reality is it would be much, much more. But they would have their Daniel to dig them out of the hole that he dug in the first place.

    We are likely to lose a cat A game this season as well because the selfish Jambos have marooned themselves to the foot of the table.

    Any apologies from them though? Nah.

    Leave mrs doctor Budge alone, she's doing fine. I'm getting used to her, even if she is getting a bit careless with money.

    Are there genuinely Hibs fans who don't want Hearts to be relegated?
