Probably wasted the money on putting seats in for fans or something silly like that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WH is paying the cost of the new pitch in Hampden, as I understand, it and in return the SFA are letting us play there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidersmad Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 When it comes to secrecy, obfuscation and economy with the truth around bungled stadium construction projects our committee could show the Ibrox board a thing or two. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider1975 Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 13 hours ago, Hampden Diehard said: Nothing mentioned on the Hibs site re ticketing arrangements for away fans for the three home games listed. Sounds like a Hibs problem rather than a QP one. Not according to Hibernian, whom I emailed yesterday. Still, as long as we’re punting the hospitality packages rather than ticketing arrangements I’ll suppose it’s all tickety-boo!, this below was their response. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any reason, really, why there's not links to tickets for Peterhead and Hibs yet? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, as long as we’re punting the hospitality packages rather than ticketing arrangements I’ll suppose it’s all tickety-boo!, this below was their response. Another example of it. Something punters want to know? They’re not interested. Game is a week tonight and Hibs have the tickets on sale already. In isolation, you could shrug and accept they’ll be out in good time. It’s a pattern of behaviour, though. They know they have the money of the band of folk who’ll be at Easter Road and they know that they pretty much always will. Not even sure it’s contempt, or if it’s just total indifference. What’s the point in even complaining now? “We’ll improve communication” has been the line for several years and it’s turned out to be complete bollocks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what it's worth I contacted them too and was told the price is £18 for adults. Hopefully they go on sale soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too busy rolling out a green carpet and polishing the chandeliers for Baron Haughey’s mates to bother about the competitive game of football in four days time. Really excited about seeing Stephen Welsh and Scott Bain in the flesh tonight. What an honour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Rico Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 If you are looking for something to generate some optimism ahead of the season then I suggest you don’t read the interview with Calum Davidson. Reads like a plea for help more than anything else 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonSpider99 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 At very least their admittal of not being ready for the season is better then sleep-walking into the season unawares. I for one cannot wait for the panicked deadline day loans that all inevitably flop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an86 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Right. Now I’m concerned. Summer recruitment should have started in January. We brought in one of Haughey’s relatives to oversee it when the season finished. What the f**k are we doing? Five years into “the project” and we have no permanent home, no real on-field identity, no communication strategy and seemingly no recruitment strategy. You’d think the committee might have taken the message from the recent election, but it’s business as usual. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Rico Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 And that’s the version that was approved for release by the club.………suspect the unedited view is even worse 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zanetti Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Great opportunity to build on a marked improvement in the second half of last season while top tier talent like Ferrie, Thomson, Thomas and Paton are all still under contract and we've somehow managed to do absolutely nothing. Davidson clearly not to blame for any of this, that's a brutal interview. Can't say I blame anyone who thinks we're favourites for the drop, I'd probably bite your hand off for 8th right now which is quite depressing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
