A HIBS fan has launched a campaign calling for answers from the club’s board relating to the Rangers EBT saga.
The supporter today kicked off a petition – which has over 900 backers – asking questions about the Lord Nimmo Smith report, title-stripping calls and the Ibrox side’s recent financial results.

The fan hopes to send the petition to Leeann Dempster
He hopes to eventually put it to Easter Road chief executive Leeann Dempster.
In September, Hibs said they were not in favour of a review into Gers’ use of EBTs from 2001 to 2010.
A message on the change.org page reads: “This petition will be sent to the CEO of Hibernian Football Club.
“But its questions are obviously of interest to all Scottish football supporters, particularly those of clubs that have publicly stated they intend to drop all future proceedings.
“This is not good enough.”

Hibs fans have already expressed dismay at the board’s stance
And of the Easter Road club’s stance it says: “This is extraordinary, given that the supporters were not consulted in any meaningful way and the overwhelming response seems to be that the investigation should continue as far as supporters are concerned.”
Hibs supporters voiced their anger at a match in September, unveiling a banner that said: “13,000 season tickets. Zero opinions heard. Unanimous?”
That came after a club statement which read: “The board has discussed the matter at successive board meetings, and has come to a unanimous view.”

Rangers won 13 trophies during the ‘EBT era’
Meanwhile, the SFA’s position on the EBT row also sparked a furious war of words between Celtic and Hampden chiefs.
The governing body rejected an appeal by the Hoops and the SPFL to launch an independent review into the game’s response to the scandal that rocked Scottish football.
