craig 5,199 Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 They apparently boycotted because Killie (more particularly Michael Johnston) abstained from the RFC vote in the summer. Seems only a Rangers boycott is frowned upon. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

calscot 0 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Yes, there's an outcry for Rangers boycotting a club that vilified us, said they didn't want us and kicked us out of the league - and this was a couple of years after shafting our fans out of money. We're vilified for using our civil right NOT to give them our money to attend their ground - a ground where we were told we weren't welcome. So can someone explain to me, what exactly Kilmarnock did to Celtic for them to have a boycott that makes the attendance for the game smaller than the visit of Dundee? What? They didn't like their democratic vote on a matter about Celtic? No! A democratic vote about another club altogether! Did they vote against Celtic's view? No - they ABSTAINED! How outrageous! They deserve to punished big time. And yet not a squeak from the press... I think we need to invent a new word to deal with how extreme the immorality that is coming from members and employees of this very strange club. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is becoming tiresome with everything that is reported about Rangers these days, hopefully part of JT remit will be to correct all these untruths and expose all of them for peddling their lies!. The agenda driven reporting in Scotland is embarrassing, especially when you look abroad and see how other countries only have admiration for the way the Rangers fans have stuck by their club, and yet here it is reported as the fans showing defiance!.

ian1964 10,444 Posted December 11, 2012 Author Share Posted December 11, 2012 Published on Tuesday 11 December 2012 00:00 HIBERNIAN chairman Rod Petrie last night warned supporters at the annual general meeting that the club will have to make “substantial reductions in costs” unless attendances rise at Easter Road this season. Petrie addressed a more subdued meeting than last year when majority shareholder Sir Tom Farmer stole the show after protests against the club and Petrie’s stewardship following the sacking of manager Colin Calderwood. Farmer was in attendance last night, and was given a round of applause from shareholders but remained silent as Petrie and manager Pat Fenlon answered questions that reflected the club’s healthier on-field position this term. Petrie, who again admitted “responsibility” for “mistakes” made in the appointment of Calderwood, told around 200 supporters that Hibs had done what it “thought was right at every step of the process” with regards to Rangers’ administration and their subsequent reintroduction to Scottish football at the Third Division level. However, he confessed that the issue had affected the Easter Road outfit financially and, with an operating deficit of £957,000 for the 12 months to July this year – the second consecutive such loss, he cautioned there may be difficult decisions to be made in future unless bigger crowds can be attracted back to home games. Petrie did not expand on the nature of the cuts, but it is understood that a cut to Fenlon’s budget would naturally be included if reductions have to be made. Petrie told shareholders: “Growing attendances by Hibernian supporters is our core strategy. We are asking supporters to do what they do best – support the team at home matches. If we cannot do that and if we cannot grow our income, then the only route to get back to break even will be to make substantial reductions in costs. “The club is asking shareholders, supporters and everyone connected with the club to play your part in getting back to where we all want it to be. “The stewardship of your club is in the hands of the board of directors. “The future of your club is in the hands of the supporters, who help in a real and tangible way by attending matches, either on a seasonal basis or as walk-up supporters. “Our plea is a simple one – if you can, please attend matches at Easter Road Stadium and support your team.” One concern that was obvious from the supporters in attendance was the prospect of the on-loan trio of Leigh Griffiths, Jorge Claros and Ryan McGivern all departing when their current deals expire next month. But Fenlon indicated all three had indicated a desire to remain at the club and Petrie reassured shareholders that everything possible was being done to ensure their contracts are extended for the rest of the season. He added: “Pat and I speak about players on a regular basis. We have been in talks with the three loaning clubs and we are keen to get things done, but the other clubs have different agendas. Each of the clubs have to make a decision but we are trying to help the manager in that regard.” 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super_Ally 0 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 I'm sure someone on FF will get us the freedom of information request on the Tims attendance in a few weeks. Be good to see that posted here when it comes. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
