Has my Club died?

[lenthehibby]

I've been wondering about this because I seem to be experiencing the "7 stages of Grief" (normally associated with bereavement) in relation to Hibs, after 60 years of highs and lows:
Stage 1: Shock and denial. Characterised by disbelief, panic, nausea, vomiting, difficulty sleeping.
Stage 2: Pain and Guilt. May feel physical. Could I have done something?
Stage 3: Anger - resentment towards the person responsible. Even anger towards the loved one.
Stage 4: Depression, reflection, loneliness. Feelings of hopelessness and confusion.
Stage 5: The Upward Turn. Less pain and sadness- more normality.
Stage 6: Reconstruction and working through.
Stage 7: Acceptance.
I reckon I've reached stage 4.
Don't want to proceed to Stage 7.
Is the Club deid?
Should I seek help?

 

[Bangkokhibby]

The club hasn't died but it's no feeling very well 🤒

 

[Zab]

No, there’s a game on Saturday FFS.

You’d think Hibs haven’t been shite for most of the last 50 years eh

It's no died. It's in a comma and if we're all there for it and support it then hopefully it'll come out of it.
There's still hope out there 💚


Maybe comma is spelt with one m or coma either way the club is paused in a deep sleep like Snowhite waiting for a prince in the shape of a manager or new owner or a defensive CH to come and give her a big slabbery kiss and awake her from her nightmare.

I feel the same

 

[westsidehibs]

No but I wish someone offers to buy out the Americans

 

[JFP1302]

No but I wish someone offers to buy out the Americans

I wish the Americans would actively look to sell so they can get so far to fuck

 

[Central_Hibee]

Where is Ron? Not heard a peep for months or about his Deloitte audit etc. Maybe he wants rid.

 

[kaimendhibs]

Still breathing but the spirit has left. Absolutely hee haw from the club to quell any fears.
Said before but I fucking hate the Gordons

Realistically we are no worse or better off than most seasons. You take the last 30 years and average our finishing position. Historically we are a 6-7 place team. Actually probably worse when you factor in two relegations. We've been a middle of the road club for as far back as I can remember.

Funny you should say that, I was having a pee post match on Sunday and someone in the bogs said he felt like the club is dying. I agreed (without shaking his hand obviously).

 

[Cabbageman]

The Hibs we love is still in there somewhere but it's fading rapidly

We might be the portsmouth/sunderland/hull of scotland . Potentially good and with a good fanbase, stadium,training centre, etc but not having the correct ownership to take us forward 😩

Was it more surreptitiously, sorta masonic type?

I don't think it's dying, but it certainly needs a bit of doctoring.

Beyond my skills I'm afraid.

Nah, I said, "you are right mate".

 

[Bambino]

Nah we are going through a tough time and it's a complete and utter shambles on the pitch but the club will still be alive and here long after Ron Gordon's packed up and went back to Peru. Things change pretty quickly in football.

 

[jetsam1]

I will be in the UK and Scotland for the first time in about 5 years in the middle of next month. Only days I could arrange due to work I would miss the games but this is the first time ever I am feeling like not running straight down to the clubshop at least..........

On the park pal. Off the park we are in all sorts of trouble, ripe for a mercer type attack, if its not already happening from within

 

[Peevemor]

Eh

Except there's no way anyone can buy the majority shareholding without RG's agreement.

The hysteria's reaching incredible levels now.
