trago13 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 If it had indeed been more than the 5 we actually got that fine lovely day in May, would it have changed how we torment that lot??? Think about it, 5-1 is actually perfect for a quick reminder, as seen by our very own 5-1 around the world, as seen by millions tonight watching our own lovely Jambo athlete and as seen by quite a few hibbies at every derby. If we had scored 10 (as a lot of us think we could have) would this have changed our ability to rub it in quite so easily??? I know this might sound stupid but how do you do a 10-1?? Maybe our gaffer had this one covered for us and done us a favour!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restonbabe Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 yes. he told the players to take it easy after the 4th went in and we did. i for one would have loved it if we hammered them. yes theyre broken, yes 5-1 is epic however a ever so slight part of me thinks what if. is that a good thing? because hibs fans dont realize how piss they played that glorious day in may Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iantjambo Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I'm happy with the 5. It gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside knowing-and more importantly THEM knowing-that we could step it up and score anytime we wanted to.

Marvin Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Although i am obviously delighted at 5. I am a little miffed that we didn't stick at least 2 more past them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Internet Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I'd rather we hit double figures tbh. You don't need a hand gesture to mock them about a 10-1 defeat in a cup final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Old Tolbooth Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I'd rather we didn;t take our foot off their scrawny little necks in the fashion we did, we should really have had double figures in that game, the 5-1 gestures have been brilliant and will last for ever more, but just to hold up 10 fingers to them without even acknowledging their lucky 1, would have a lot more of them having one leg over the Waverley Bridge, last night with Eilidh Childs proves they'll never ever get over it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammy T Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I personally think it's unprofessional to purposefully 'go easy' on a team rather than it being respectful, but there you go.... 10 we could deal with easy enough. The problems would have started at 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboGuy Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 To the day I die, I will NEVER forget the amazing Paulo Sergio indicating unambiguously how far forward Hearts were allowed to go, and how far back they were allowed to fall towards the end of that game. Anyone got a video of that? He knew they were broken, and being the gentleman that he was he stopped the Hearts squad from skewering the Vermian as they deserved. A classy gesture from a classy and brilliant manager (remember he did this with someone else's squad, totally changed their style to a continental style and they had only really got into it in the few weeks before the Final). And his Hearts team left Hibs dead, humiliated, shown for the frauds they are - and their "support" for the moronic part-timers we have always known them to be - but on a GLOBAL stage. And (following on from the frequency the Vermian used the 7-0 thing before it became a "Malmo Moment"), we have 40+ years of 5-1 signs left to enjoy!

I used to agree with that sentiment, however after those bitter tossers in their thousands tried anything to close down HMFC I really wish Sergio had let his team run riot!! I said at the time when he brought Beattie on and played him deep in midfield that Sergio was doing them a favour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamboman1512 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Would have loved it if we didn't go easy on them and scored a barrel load of goals but it is immensely pleasing when I see one of those numptys with a h1b5 licence plate, gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside.

gowestjambo Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 My one regret is we did not annihilate them 8-1 then the 0-7 would be finished. In fact I will not be happy until we beat them 7-0 at easter road! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And (following on from the frequency the Vermian used the 7-0 thing before it became a "Malmo Moment"), we have 40+ years of 5-1 signs left to enjoy! I disgree with this. Whilst Hearts fans were beside themselves its about entertainment and 90 minutes of teams trying to score goals. To actively not try and score for over 1/3 of a game is against what I believe sport is about, which is beating your opposition first, then beating them by as much as possible and entertaining your fans. Whilst 5-1 no doubt eclipses 7-0 in most peoples eyes. It statisically doesnt. Not that it is that important, but still, I'd personally prefer Hearts to have equalled or bettered that score when they had the opportunity. And we had at least one other opportunity to do so in the last decade (when Rix's Hearts went 4-0 up just after half time with Hibs down to 10 men). Its not that important, but in my opinion "going easy" on a team is a pile of pish. Hibs deserved to be humiliated even more than they were that day. Its not about 11 professional players, its about 30000+ fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tian447 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Even if we'd beaten them 10-1, they'd still claim the clean sheet in the 7-0 as some sort of superior victory.

Hearts Heritage Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 The 0-7 is very easily 'written off' Great team you had back then. You Really should have won more than the League Cup that season. Best team in the league but you only won 1 of the last 9 league games Chucked that away. 4-2 up in UEFA Cup QF lost 2nd leg 3-0 hard luck Lost to Rangers in SF of the Scottish Cup. Unlucky that season but still that result at New Year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
