Hibs Statement

Recommended Posts

As Follows:

A Police-led criminal inquiry is underway into events at Hibernian’s historic Scottish Cup win over Rangers at the weekend.   The Scottish FA has also launched its own Independent Commission.   The Club welcomes the  announcement of the Commission which should have the widest ranging terms of reference.

The Independent Commission is to look into all aspects of the staging and management of the Final.  That is right and proper.  Everyone involved will want to know what lessons can be learned.

Hibernian FC will co-operate fully with the Independent Commission in every way it can and the Commission must be allowed to run its course and reach its own conclusions without fear or favour.

Hibernian FC today reiterated:

-That the Club is sorry that a number of Hibernian supporters invaded the pitch.   Whilst emotions were running high, the Club cannot condone supporters coming onto the field of play.

-That the Club will co-operate fully with all of the relevant authorities to identify supporters involved in behaviour which tarnishes the good name of Hibernian FC.

-In particular, the Club will do everything in its power to bring to book any Hibernian supporters found to have been involved in the most serious allegations of assault – including assaults on the staff or players of Rangers FC

-The Club will take the strongest possible sanctions against any supporters involved in criminal activity or unacceptable behaviour

Chairman Rod Petrie said: “It is now clear from various sources that supporters being on the pitch at the end of the match led to acts of violence and disorder.  

I condemn and the Club condemns all of the violence and unacceptable conduct perpetrated on the pitch and elsewhere and in the margins of the match at Hampden.   There is absolutely no place for it in the game of football.

"Hibernian will do all that it can to support the criminal investigations to ensure that those who have transgressed face the consequences of their actions.”

 

 

Glaringly lacking an apology to mentioned assaulted players and staff of Rangers - is it too much to ask?

All day to think up a statement, look at the photos and they come up with that!?! 

 

No apologises just allegations of assault. 

 

Enjoy the championship ya bunch of AIDS ridden junkie scum.

Forced into it by Rangers again, just like the SNP cult, sorry government. If Rangers hadn't made such a statement this would be getting brushed under the carpet consistently and then left to lie because it is the end of the season.

No dealings with Hibs.

No away fans at Ibrox.

Look into moving into the English leagues. Fuck this hovel and it's supporters.

Desperate stuff, and far from an adequate response, Trying to fend off further action.  Hope the club gets a call out very soon for the resignation of the entire SFA Board.  Don't give them an inch now - press home the advantage.
