This double agent $#@! Petrie is pulling has to end ASAP. Either he steps away COMPLETELY from Hibs or he gives up the SFA gig. Him dragging the good name of our club through the dirt is not acceptable.

This. It’s a conflict of interests. It’s not unreasonable to ask him to do as you say IMO. Wish somebody had asked him that at the meeting the other night TBH. My understanding is without the Hibs gig he loses the SFA one by default so it wouldn’t really be much of a choice..

It's definitely a conflict of interests. If even questioning it, I'm sure you'd be told he has nothing to do with the running of our club and is just in the background. There's far too much smoke and mirrors nonsense for my liking.

Found this wee snippet on MongMedia. Wonder if paragraph 3 alludes to why certain folk in Scottish football are looking to move on?

" True Blue Treachery is set to make a series of sensational claims about the 46-year-old's time at Ibrox.

The book promises to lift the lid on sex, political plotting and football corruption, according to the Scottish Sun.

In his memoirs Whyte is to allege a Scots club offered to throw a match for money.

It's also alleged that one player saw sheriff officers turn up at Murray Park to seize his cars.

And another star's performance on the park dipped because his performances 'off the park' led to him picking up a sexually transmitted disease.

A source told the Scottish Sun: "It’s outrageous that it’s been leaked — it’s a real breach of trust.

"Nothing is signed or sealed yet and it’s not imminent."

Whyte was acquitted by a jury at the High Court in Glasgow in July after being accused of fraudulently buying Rangers in May 2011."

@Dub might know the answer to this.

Can/do sheriff officers operate in Scotland and seize property.

I was under the impression we had something else and they couldn't!

Yes they can unless it's changed recently. They can force your door open and poind your stuff and anyone elses stuff that happens to be in your house. It's up to you to provide proof that you don't own items otherwise they can tae them away if you don't cough up the cash you owe.

In Scotland a Sheriff appoints 'officers' to seize property as it's an order of the sheriff court. In England they're called bailiffs but I'm not sure how they are appointed. I assume the legal process will be similar though.

I'd imagine not, hopefully not.
I'd guess Kilmarnock, having given Oldco 3 stands for end of season parties, didn't vote against removing them, etc.

I'd really like to hope we're not involved. Killie are probably too obvious. Wouldn't have put it past Romanov's Gunts either the way he fiddled the cash and they were also up $#@! creek financially at that time. Throw a match for a nice brown envelope straight into his hip pocket?

**Whitburn Hibee** · 22-11-17, 23:48

Milne at Aberdeen wanting to 'move on' is another candidate if we're looking for folk covering their tracks but it could be anyone. As long as Hibs are squeaky clean we can take it from there. I really do hope Whyte names and shames in his book. I'm inclined to believe his account after all this time.

Absolutely.

A complete fantasist.

On the other hand, if he is denigrating The The Rangers or their allies I'm happy to give him the benefit of any doubt.

He probably chopped down a cherry tree in these circumstances.

I'm hoping he shows thae $#@!ers up for what they are. I'm hoping his revelations bring a few others down and signal the death of The The Rangers once and for all. I dinnae give a feck if it's all Walter Mitty-esqe, if it causes those orange $#@!s to implode, they can knight him as far as I'm concerned

Scotland would indeed be a better place if that scenario unfolded...sadly it won't

**Zellviren** · 14-12-17, 14:23

@traceyhibs

I've left the petition up for a couple of months now, and it's done the rounds amongst Hibs supporters both here and on social media (thanks to everyone who signed and shared it).

I'm now requesting that you unofficially forward it to the board of directors for comment, though I'm certain they're already aware of it, and answer the questions that at least 4,200 signatories feel should be answered. I do have another one to add to the list, though:

6) What action is being taken by Hibernian Football Club with reference to the now traditional sectarian bigotry that supporters of the current Rangers Football Club have significantly ramped up in recent matches at both Easter Road, and Ibrox?

There are two outcomes to this request, Tracey:

- The first is that it is met, that the answers are given fairly and faithfully, and we need go no further.

- The second is that it is ignored, and I will move it beyond the Hibs support to other fans movements around Scotland for additional signatories and a final, official, submission date to the CEO.

While I sincerely hope for the first outcome, I sadly expect the second and that the wishes of over 4,000 Hibs supporters will be hand-waved away.

My suspicion is that this may help to repair the lost faith in the fans representative role, should a proper outcome be arrived at.

The ball is in your court.

We have a board meeting coming up next week and I will put it on our report which we submit

Are you stating that only Hibs supporters have signed this?

Having had a quick glance, the answer is obviously not. The first signatory I saw said he was a Celtic supporter.

Obviously the vast majority will be Hibs fans as the petition was shared on numerous Hibs sites, but there will be fans of other clubs too.

I'm not sure that Rodders (in his Hibs role) should be held accountable to fans of the lesser greens for instance, but maybe that's your point?

Absolutely not (as Shrink has pointed out), based on the evidence. But it has only been deliberately shared on Hibs sites and Hibs-groups on social media, most of which are outside of my extremely small bubble.

Having had a think about it, that's a fair shout. If I move the petition on for other supporters groups, the likely destination of the final petition will be the SFA/SPFL.

I will still bring it up as per your request but that was my point and understand you can’t help who shares it.

Hi there,

There will be an update following our next board meeting. Unfortunately our December meeting was cancelled.

Our next meeting will take place on 30th January.

Thanks, Tracey.

I want to ask:

I’m not a person who hides behind a keyboard or username, and am happy to speak to both yourself and Frank about this properly. Due to the petition you know my name, but I also live in the Netherlands and, therefore, am unable to make a commute. Would you and Frank be available for a Skype call about the petition specifically, assuming a suitable time for everyone can be found?

I understand if the answer is no, but the aforementioned commute is why I didn’t turn up to any of the Working Together, Hibs Club or surgery meetings.

Appreciate that and happy to speak on Skype. Frank is heading out to Portugal tomorrow and back Thursday next week so week commencing 22nd would be great if good for you?

It would definitely be beneficial to discuss it prior to the board meeting.

My email is tsmith@hibernianfc.co.uk - let me know your availability and we can get something set up.

Thank you again

Thanks - I'll drop you an email later today when I get home from work. The timings look fine, so it hopefully won't be too difficult to sort out.
