A strange Tuesday for Hibs. With their city rivals toiling under the threat of financial calamity, it was Hibs who ended the day with a dismissed employee and something of a PR storm.
At half time in Sunday's game against Dundee United the tannoy at Easter Road blasted out a few lines of George Harrison's Taxman.

A splendid SPL smorgasbord seeing out September. Alarming alliteration aside, we can sit back and enjoy six games in the top flight.
Michael Ngoo and Danny Wilson tasted cup final defeat on Sunday as Hearts lost 3-2 to St Mirren in the Scottish Communities League Cup final. The Reds duo, who joined Hearts on loan in January this year, were powerless to prevent their team slipping to defeat in front of a packed Hampden Park crowd.

The Spiraling Cost of Modern Football
Modern football. The glamor, the glory. The excitement, the expense. Following football has become a very expensive hobby in recent years. As transfer fees skyrocketed in the mid 1990′s, wagesspiraledto similar lofty heights.

Liverpool v Arsenal   Anfield, Sunday, September 2 1:30 p.m.
Liverpool won't be including Clint Dempsey in their side to face Arsenal on Sunday, mainly
because they drew the wrath of their fans more than Arsenal did after the debacle that saw him end
up at Spurs.

Liverpool Luis Suarez managed to find a return.

Andy Carroll has been asked to consider his future with Liverpool after boss Brendan Rodgers told
the big money signing that he will be third choice striker at Anfield.
Rodgers is desperate to offload Carroll to fund a deadline day transfer swoop and he has left
Carroll out of the Europa League squad to face Hearts tonight to give him time to consider a move.
Stewart Downing could have a Liverpool future as a left-back, according to Reds boss Brendan
Rodgers.
The £20million signing from Aston Villa has struggled at Anfield since his arrival last summer and
has been usurped from his left-wing role by 17-year-old Raheem Sterling.
But Rodgers used Downing at full-back against Hearts in the club's Europa League play-off and is
planning a new role for the 28-year-old England international on a long-term basis.
With the arrival of Oussama Assaidi and emergence of teenager Raheem Sterling, Downings hopes of
a regular first team role on one of the flanks looks increasingly unlikely.
The 28-year-old England international has struggled to impress on his first season at Anfield,
failing to score or collect an assist despite of his 36 Premier League appearances last season.
Here's hoping his passing is as slick as his hair...
Image: guardian.co.ukLiverpool welcome Hearts to Anfield on Thursday evening as they aim to
book their place in the Europa League group stages. With a 1-0 win at Tynecastle it's the Reds who
hold the advantage but the tie is far from over.
talkSPORT's Graham Beecroft was uncertain about Brendan Rodgers' decision to put his faith in young
winger Raheem Sterling over the last week. So much so, that ahead of the Europa League clash with
Hearts he threw out a couple of factual inaccuraces, referred to Sterling as Smalling and then
launched into the most ridiculous, rambling, [.
Motherwell were held at home by St Mirren and Hearts remained unbeaten with a draw at Aberdeen
in the Scottish Premier League matches on August 26, 2012.
Aberdeen 0-0 Hearts
Hearts continued their unbeaten record in the new season with a clean sheet at the Pittodrie
Stadium. Aberdeen were the stronger side in the beginning as Hearts looked a bit lethargic
following their loss to Liverpool in the Europa League.
Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has declared that winger Raheem Sterling has a "big future" at
the club after impressing in the Reds' 1-0 Europa League victory over Hearts.
Sterling, 17, joined the club from QPR's youth set-up in 2010 and has emerged as one of Liverpool's
most promising young players in recent years.
Brendan Rodgers has revealed Andy Carroll missed Liverpool's Europa League win over Hearts with a
hamstring problem.
Carroll failed to make the squad for the play-off first leg in Edinburgh - despite his presence at
the stadium - with the £35million striker linked with a return to Newcastle.
However, Rodgers says the forward was set to start against Hearts and he remains hopeful he will be
fit for Sunday's Premier League visit of champions Manchester City.
It wasn't exactly a pretty performance nor was it very controlled but it was a win nonetheless and by the end of the 90 minutes Liverpool's experience had helped them to a 1-0 victory over a plucky Hearts side.
Celtic, Hearts, Kilmarnock, and St Johnstone all won while Hibs were held at home by Inverness in the Scottish Premier League on September 22, 2012.
Celtic 2-0 Dundee FC
Celtic moved up within a point of the SPL lead with a solid home victory. It hasn't been a perfect start for Celtic but they are unbeaten at home and remain the overwhelming favorites to in the title.

Brendan Rodgers does not want his Liverpool team to rely on goals from their strikers this
season.
The Reds manager says there is a need for all his outfield players to contribute, and he is keen
for there to be less emphasis on the number of goals from his forwards.
Liverpool drew a blank in their defeat to West Brom on the opening day of the Premier League
season, and Rodgers says they cannot simply look to their strikeforce to open their account.
