Last updated : 04 July 2009 By Steve Forbes


It has been revealed today that ex Hibs striker Steven Fletcher has handed 50% of his signing on fee from his £3m transfer to Burnley, back to the club as a thank you.

Just like his predecessors before him, Fletch has put the money, £125,000, in to the Hibees Youth Development programme.

Garry O'Connor, David Murphy, Scott Brown and Steven Whittaker have all made the gesture in the past of handing back ALL of their fee and now Fletcher does the same, with half of his fee going towards producing the Hibs stars of the future.

Superb gesture Steven.
