What they're saying

"
It's clear to see the Gordon family are heavily invested - financially and emotionally - in Hibs. Not for the first time, club owner Ian Gordon last week put his hand in his pocket and stuck £40k behind the bar at the fan zone for travelling Hibees in Ghent. It's refreshing to see, and not taken for granted, an owner appears to be learning what it means to be a football club custodian.
