Dons_1988 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Club owners deserved scrutinised more than probably any other business. These are generally guys that want to run a club as a business that profits from consumers but want consumers to act like loyal lemmings. Folk like Gordon’s business acumen is welcome to the league, a bit like cormack, but they need absolutely telt when they go off on their own path. Clubs need to be run commercially, yes, but the noise and shite from fans helps keep a balance. Aye, sometimes a lot of it is nonsense but these guys being held accountable is no bad thing. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Other Foot Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Hibs fans used to be fun on this forum. Not me; I was never fun. But now no one is fun. It’s as if some of you have decided to start treating this like a football forum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's to a more than decent season and I sincerely hope your defeatist ways are 100% incorrect. Starting on Saturday. What's everyone's first choice XI for Saturday? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's everyone's first choice XI for Saturday? No idea what the team will be mate. Its a bit of a lottery at the moment and that at this stage of the season/pre season is far from ideal.

Hoose Rice Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Hibs have suffered a major injury blow before the start of the Scottish Premiership season, with Aiden McGeady facing up to 12 weeks on the sidelines. Branding the situation ‘disappointing’, Johnson added: "He's going to be out for a sustained period of time. It's hard to put a timescale on it but it's going to be minimum six weeks, although it probably averages about 10 weeks. "I'm disappointed for Aiden; he's worked extremely hard to get back to a level of fitness that is capable of performing at Premiership level and unfortunately this has happened. "It's not ideal but it's why you have a squad. Somebody else has got to fill that void on a leadership level and a performance level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the opposite of a settled team. I actually know what both teams will be. The teams will be St Johnstone and Hibs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
