From 0762 (that's my forum name and it has been the same on Hibs.net etc for about the past ten years unless I've missed some divine intervention that has changed it!!)
I'm afraid not supercooper and another wrong assumption. I've already put in as much money, that I can afford to pay out to support Hibs, and I can assure you it's not a pittance and I don't regret backing Hibs financially in this way. Indeed I believe this is the way to move forward collectively for a club of Hibs size in order to maximise what Hibs have to offer on the pitch and in ultimately attracting more fans to ER Stadium in a city like Embro that has a continually growing population. This policy is about the future (a positive and secure one!), not just about the here n now, and I'll embrace it by putting more money into the club when I can and I know there are lotsa Hibs fans who will be backing the club in this way as well. There are different ways to support a football club and this is one avenue that many Hibs fans will follow in order to improve our club for the better, esp in the long term, and it will ultimately work in a progressive, community football club like Hibs FC. I may disagree with certain things that I'm observing on Hibs playing side/operations but that won't deter me from backing the club financially and indeed, formally having a say in such disagreements and discreetly debating the issues with a view to improving them or at least receiving an explanation re said issues and debating them further if necessary.
