Well this is a surprise. Up yours Liewell.
Auld Turnbull is pan bread mate!Who's left to support them?
Eddie Thomson's disappointment of a son and that loudmouth Turnbull Hutton then?
Didnt expect that from Liewells puppet.
Auld Turnbull is pan bread mate!
I wouldn't be surprised as once it became common knowledge King had these emails in his possession Ashley and his cohorts never lasted long and now this.Didn't King buy the Charlotte fakes hacked emails or something? Something in there Petrie doesn't want the world to see?
They make some really good points. In other words concentrate on ourselves and move forward or join celtics bandwagon and hold ourselves back.
Good. It's showing Pete the Japanese as being the driving force behind every single attempt to knee cap us and attack our club.
Get those devious fuckers banned Rangers. It sickens me to see that pile of shite sitting in some of the best seats in the stadium
That is surely a reference worthy of a photoshop!Kim Jong Lawwell won't be pleased.
Another bites the dust.Hibernian supporters have contacted the Club directly, and via their two elected Non-Executive Directors, to enquire as to the Club’s position regarding Rangers, HMRC and the use of EBTs.
The Board has discussed the matter at successive Board meetings, and has come to a unanimous view. The Club had intended to make this known earlier, but a variety of factors, not least the need to focus on and conclude Hibernian business during the transfer window, delayed this.
Your Board fully understands the concerns of supporters regarding this issue, on all sides of the argument.
During the past six years, the matter has been interrogated by the highest courts in the land, by the SFA, and by the SPFL. In recent weeks, both the SPFL and SFA have taken extensive legal advice which does not support or encourage taking further action.
The lengthy and detailed explanation of the SPFL legal advice (July 26th 2017) makes clear that this matter has now been thoroughly examined by some of Scotland’s keenest legal minds, and their opinion is that – given the rules which applied at that time - no additional sanctions could be retrospectively applied. Similar legal views have been obtained by the SFA. Both organisations have looked at the issue and at potential sanctions, and have received strong and clear legal advice.
The SPFL – whilst accepting that no additional sanctions can be retrospectively applied – wants an independent review into how the issue was handled. The SFA has referred a specific aspect to its compliance officer. For all of these reasons, we also do not support the letter from the SPFL calling for a further independent review.
Your Board believes our game faces a choice. We either continue to spend significant sums of money and huge reserves of time and energy to challenge already lengthy and detailed legal advice. Or, we can focus on doing all we can to invest in the future of our Club and the wider game to improve our sport, and ensure there can be no repeat of the issues raised
We prefer the latter option - working to ensure that in the future our game is fairer and more open, and has the potential to secure greater commercial income to fund further improvement for the longer term.
Scottish football is finally emerging from a period of significant turbulence, which has damaged the sport, into a much more exciting future. While we know this is a divisive issue that will never be resolved to the satisfaction of all supporters, we cannot allow it to divert us from the future or to keep us mired in the past.
It is the view of your Board that we should focus 100% on a brighter future for Hibernian, and for the game. All of our energy will be used trying to bring future success to our own club, and to working together to create a future that all of our supporters can be proud of, on and off the pitch.
Something going on is this a cover up to get Petrie into Reagans job then surprisingly back the tramps case to remove titles from us.I hope King has something big up his sleeve.

We can only hope.Tuned in and he's about to have a cardiac arrest!!
He is fuming.
Superb
Working to ensure that in future our game is fairer = Rangers cheated their way to titles in the past.
More open = Rangers and the SFA are involved in a cover up.
Potential to secure greater commercial income = We need Rangers on board to help us maximise our income.
I think this is the real message Hibs are putting out. The fact they then talk of not wishing to spend their cash on legal fights means they know the outcome would be in our favour, but want to get their last dig in with the rest of the statement.
Anyone that thinks Hibs would have released this statement if they thought they could have had some of our titles removed from the record books is mistaken.
This is exactly what it's aboutI think it is more and more evident that The fat Japanese is playing this out publucly to appease the green and grey hordes. He can now pretended he tried.
Killie's main shareholder told them as well last week that they wanted nothing to do with it. Lawwell now needs a courageous journalist to ask him on who's behalf he was speaking.
The media campaign will now focus on getting fans to pressure their boards to change their minds. Already started last night with English saying fans have been ignored blah blah.
What Hibs did to Rangers regarding Gordon Neely is unforgivable. Their silence and inaction enabled his abuse of Hibs boys to go unpunished and abuse of Rangers boys to begin.Maybe more likely that Hibs know there is a shit storm coming off the back of the kiddie fiddling and it's best to keep a back seat now as God knows what the sanctions could be if the fiddling underwent full public focus.
