No way. Petrie is doing a great job at what he does.

I agree the board need to release some and I expect them to.

***Livi_hibee*** · 15-05-07, 21:31

Middlesbrough couldn't match upfront what Celtic were offering Hibs and Scott. Was any other team willing to follow up their interest? We can't tell but it didn't look likely apart from the north of England side. Browns heart was then set on Celtic. Nothing more Hibs can do apart from take that money now.
The money coming now gives us more time to utilise it better than the Thomson deadline money for instance.
Sh*te place for him to go for ourselves and Hibs, think he will move on in 2 years time from there anyhow as the boys destined for similar things than his current gaffer. We must look after ourselves at the end of the day and Scott Brown now becomes Hibs biggest ever transfer fee received.

Middlesborough did notoffer 5.5M, in fact they said their valuation was significantly lower than that figure. Rangers and Celtic have been taking the best Scottish players since I was a wee boy and will continue to do so. At least this time we got good money for Brown and Thomson. Hibs will move on, with or without you as a supporter. The first one I remember was Colin Stein going to Rangers anad I was devastated for about 2 days until I realised that we would have a new centre forward to replace him and just maybe he would be better. And you know what, Lewis Stevenson might turn out even better than Scott Brown.

FergosMonchacha · 15-05-07, 22:31

Nope dont think so to RP leavin.

We usually lose the player and get jack all in terms of a fee in days gone by. Gutted that hes off ti smeltic but as been said its happened fir years. Remember bein totally devastated when Craig Patterson went to hunsville.com.britain fir 225k.

RP defo ti get the wallet oot nae doubts bout that- I forever the optimist think hell gee JC a wee bit i pocket money fir the summer holidays??

And who cares as we'll aw be back doon ER next season.

Hibernian Forever.

nabser · 15-05-07, 22:48

Not happy he is going to glasgow but he is not the first and unfortunately he wont be the last hibs player to end up there, like it or not we are a selling club always have and probably always will be.As for petrie 4.5 million for brown i think he played a blinder considering people were saying thats what we could get for brown and thomson combined.

irishhibee88 · 15-05-07, 22:53

The simple fact is that an EPL side were never going to pay that sort of money because for them paying that for any SPL player is a big gamble. Whereas Celtic were prepared to pay 4.5 million as they knew what they were getting with no risk factor.

***Forzahibs*** · 15-05-07, 22:54

If there isn't a DECENT cash injection into the team over the summer i'd say "yes"
Stand up and be counted my arse

Anyone down south with any football knowledge would know what they were getting too , they manage to bring in players from outside of England regularly enough .
Any scout / manager who watched Brown and couldn't see what he has should give up the game

tam4hibs · 15-05-07, 23:32

Dick Makay on BBC site stating that and quote:

"He can only go to where Hibs are prepared to accept an offer from," said McKay.

"There were a host of clubs after Scott and some English clubs offered more money.

"But Celtic ticked all the boxes for Hibs and for his personal terms. He is delighted to join Celtic."

So to answer other posts - yes we could have got more elsewhere. And RP seems to have jumped at the first solid offer.

Either way, this is not my gripe - neither is getting shot of the board. Im just looking for re-investment! 6.5 million profit in 5 months, 2 million re-invest on transfers = 4.5 million left for whatever they please. And still a very good season profit! (oh look, i am good a maths)

If im asking too much or being ambitious then please somebody stop me! Dont want us spending money we clearly have now. do we?

Cmon hibs, u wanna keep us happy - the men who pay thousands to keep yous in jobs - the re-invest. Get that buzz around the future of HfC again.

HibeeJibee · 16-05-07, 02:50

People should remember that the October 2006 AGM still reported debts of £6.9M. Bearing in mind Tom Farmer is Rod Petrie's boss, I don't see how we can blame Rod for putting some money into clearing debts and putting some more aside to pay off mortgages later, if that's what he is being told. People say 'sack RP' do they really believe whoever replaced him would have the power to take a different line? Of course not. What does disappoint me is that we keep selling our players to our competitors - could you imagine a situation in England where Man Utd and Chelsea constantly bought the best players from Arsenal and Liverpool? We are improving our opposition when we could have got the same or even more money from down south. It also damages the prospect of the national team as all the talent is hoovered up for the Old Firm reserves. However, our media will love it and say it is best for Scottish football - mainly because they spend 90% of their time sucking OF.

As a hibs fan i cant take this crap no more. trainning ground paid Oh sorry but you cant have money for players next season we need it for the trainning ground so as i see it thats about 10mil has gone to it now. We break records every season i.e season tickets new tops home an away.Look at the players we have sold an the money we made but we cant get players off it.Petrie says a big club like hibs should be in europe every year well how can we if there is no money.I think a protest should happen PETRIE OUT NOW on sunday after the game.

The man has done good hibs are probably the only club in scotland who are financially sound ,But he has got to give JC some money so bolster the squad or it will loose its depth .

They have a bit of money. If you announce that then the price of every player go want to buy suddenly goes up.

Money will be available but maybe for wages for better players rather than transfer fees. May get the East Stand sorted as well soon.

RP is doing the sensible thing - you will appreciate it when Vlad's rollercoaster comes to a halt.

DANHFC1875 · 16-05-07, 08:49

it's a shame broony has gone to smeltic, but we got a very good deal, what he is worth right now i think... and he will only get better at smeltic if he's given a regular game, which i think he will be.... will not make much difference to us next season as he was definately leaving one way or another. However Petrie MUST give collins some kind of funds for players next season as we cannot simply rely on the good quality young lads that are coming through... there has to be some experienced lads to show them the way ... and I don't mean some old geezer from league 2 in England... .... ..... I'm not going to hold my breathe... but i'll keep my fingers crossed at least.. Next season could be good with a few quality additions.. It's not all doom and gloom...but some people are never happy

I would add a couple of million more to your profit figure. Gates are averaging 1000 a week more than last season and we reached a cup final and that following on a 700k operating profit last season !

8m plus will be our profit this year ( less any big bucks we may pay out in June ).
