    It's a possibility, although there's still a month to go before the club could know how much it is. Possibly longer, since the SPFL prize money and UEFA Solidarity (?) payments might not have been decided by then.

    Last year's loss wasn't made good until earlier this year.
    When was last years loss made good? IG said at the AGM that it wouldn’t be done until the summer.

    Ah. I don't remember that bit. In that case, the £25m is way overstated, if it hasn't yet been paid.

    How would we find out when it’s been paid?

    Only in the accounts, I suppose. Either in this year's, or next, depending when it is paid.

    So..... January 26 or 27.

    All the signs suggest they're learning. Long may it continue.
    This was my worry at the start of the season. They’ve certainly demonstrated that they have learned.

    Think it showed a lot of character from Ian Gordon to stick to his beliefs that David Gray was the right man when it might have been easier to go along with what others wanted . Thankfully everything seems good now .

    Really good post.
    Ron talked about the matchday experience and let’s be honest, a lot of people sneered at the phrase and even the ambition to make it better.

    On Saturday, I had (almost) exactly the match day experience I would want when going to see Hibs. The stadium looked great, it was busy and full of happy punters watching a team of players fighting for the jersey.

    There were enough Hibs fans to justify reducing Rangers’ allocation and we were noisy and boisterous, with a great display in the standing section. The big screens (mind everyone slaughtering them for some reason?) playing a presentation of Hibees we’ve lost with music and messaging clearly coming out the upgraded sound system.

    To have a successful season across the club should be a source of immense pride to the Gordons, and while I’ve been critical and believe that they absolutely should have covered the losses incurred, they did and they’ve spent more to ensure we can be competitive, so absolutely they deserve thanks and credit for the season we’ve had.
    You obviously don't sit in the West Stand The sound system is incoherent when announcements are made.

    That's all you can ask for and sure as time goes on they will continue to get it right.

    Right at the back of the west upper - section 13. Sound is much better than it used to be!
