Depends how closely 'the tache' views our financial position and how generous we are gonna be lol! I'm sure Hibs, Leeann and the Hibs board will 'get it right'. They are no slouches when it comes to this kinda stuff and they will try very hard to keep Neil Lennon 'sweet'! Perhaps even a 'comforting arm around his shoulders' will suffice! We're all human and there are times when one can just feel 'down' and fed up! Neil is a 'good man' and previously said at an AGM, which I attended, that he was 'in it for the long haul'! That Hibs project is not over and Neil should be encouraged by the management team around him who recognise that kinda predicament. He has done a great job so far and watch the solid Hibs support backing Lenny on Sunday. Will the players respond as well? We'll see!

I think the thing that will eventually sway Lenny is the desire of the board to keep most of our good players and provide some funding to bring in one or two others.
According to the media Rangers have targeted McGinn and others are catching the eye of teams down south. The last thing we need is losing 3 or 4 first team players and that must be avoided at all costs because it would shake the fans belief that Hibs want to progress.
I`m sure the board will see on Sunday that we are prepared to turn up and support the team but there is a fine line between keeping that support and losing it. Nobody,especially the board, wants to see us back to crowds of 9,000 at Easter Road.
