wee song for our neighbours to the tune of where have all the flowers gone

Poor as we were in the second half we still created the best clear cut chances. Not counting the not offside! Offsides and the one where simms was clean through and Porto fell over.

 

if Sibbick hadn’t let them back into the game we’d have have scored 5+

 

Yip, if Sibbick punts that out and uut stays 2-0 we get a 3rd before before half time. 

 

They can go on about ifs and buts, but that is also true. They knew it as well and is why half of them chucked it after the second. 

 

They were 5 minutes from a doing. 

 

They are lucky Sibbick ****ed up straight after our 2nd.

I've been watching Hearts for almost 50 years and whilst we've been the dominant team in Edinburgh for most of the last 40 years, I've honestly been amazed by a lot of Hibs fans' reaction to Saturday. They should be taking the defeat and their attendance on Saturday really badly, calling for clear-outs and sackings and all sorts of changes and whilst a lot of their fans are doing that, I'm staggered by the number that seem to have think that Saturday was somehow a success. And to start getting excited about The Rangers gubbing a team which Hibs couldn't beat less than 48 hours ago is really strange (but predictable) behaviour.

Hard to say fact with things like this but certainly very hard to argue surely.

 

Just 5 mins of keeping it tight after our 2nd and it's over. Similar Boycies chance. A punch to the gut bang on half time, choose your score second half.

 

Two incidents, somewhat self inflicted* which made it more uncomfy for ourselves but we dug in, were professional and got it done. This team has guts.

 

*Added to the injuries we suffered and the ref letting them away with murder.

Simple traits are getting more rare in the game. Is the captain on the pitch getting the message out to get it long and turn them for 10 minutes, clear the lines and don’t invite pressure?

 

Players want to play football on every square inch of grass when sometimes it’s not on. Ball out the park and we regroup in our half.  
 

It’s still percentages but doing the fundamentals gives you a chance.

Yup i think a slight issue was to put it out, it needed to be for a corner and defenders hate doing this. If it had been wider, he'd have put out for a throw. Also If he want to shield it, he needed to plant himself and stick his erse oot as well!! It was a real brainfart.

 

He did very well from that moment though. Great character shown, so look back, learn from mistake but be proud it didnt sink you. A good sign imo.

I agree. The guy has twice recovered from shaky starts to gather himself and do the job well.  The brain needs to start clicking earlier though.

I see the dewy eyed, warrior poet, flairmeister pride lasted just 2 days.  They’ve gone from “we performed better than you and sang louder than you” to “**** off Maloney with your pride in defeat pish”. It was do blatantly obvious it would happen after they had time to let it breath, but delicious all the same.

Yep and even though I would much rather we had made it easier there is a bit of satisfaction in seeing out the game, in the end fairly comfortably, with all we had to deal with.

Oh Hibs

It's a horrendous record they have against us.  To put it into perspective, they would need to beat us every league game over the next 20.5 years to equal our record against them.  That is if we both end up top 6 every season, which they won't always do and does not take cup games into consideration.  They will never do this.  They're ruined....ruined I tell you!

Given that our benefactor is now a board member, I’d say that blows most of the argument over 3rd party financial support out the window.  
 

Maybe they should focus on their own finances.  I’d say putting 2022/23 season tickets on sale before the split (and at the same time as semi tickets) would suggest they’re bricking it and relying on the distraction of a good cup run to plug the gaps.  If they can’t sell more than 14k tickets for a semi how can they expect to sell close to that many season tickets?

[Brauhauser2012]

Choose failure.
Choose getting humped by your city rivals twice in 7 days.
Choose spoon burning.
Choose making films celebrating your fans loser lifestyle of drugs, violence and gay sex.
Choose another countries identity.
Choose not winning 22 games in a row.
Choose not being able to sell your tickets. Choose Crabbies Green Ginger.
Choose jumping about at football games, swinging you arms around to beating drums to disguise the fact you crapped yourself again from the fear of yet another defeat and your working hard to shoogle it down your trouser leg.
Choose Hibs.

the thing they spectacularly fail to understand.  Our wage bill materially smaller than theirs.  Our income is materially more..

 

yes we have benefitted from benefactor donations- most of which have been used to completely rebuild the clubs infrastructure. We won’t keep investing in infrastructure for ever. 😂

It's nearer 9000 FOH members and the benefactors have committed to at least another 3 years. 

 

Misses the point also about why that is. 

[stuart500]

I think the hobos should be more concerned about their own future financial well-being than ours.

 

They have an owner who at some point will want to sell the club on. Will their owner settle for less money than he has invested? Doubt it. So how does he recoup his investment? 

 

Already their fantasy valuations of Porteous and Doig have been exposed as nonsense. Their only asset, Boyle has been flogged off to balance the books.

 

So is Ron likely to throw in more good money after bad to prop up their ailing finances? Again highly doubtful.

 

Their fans are not going to pony up to subsidise a wealthy owner at a time when their smack bills are rocketing. 

 

There will be no benefactor to hand over cash as this would simply end up in Ron's back pocket.

 

So Ron may well have to start stripping the club's assets, for example, selling their training facility land, to get his money back.

 

Of course there may be a rich hobo out their prepared to take them over lock stock and barrel but that will just eventually lead to a rinse and repeat scenario.

 

We on the other hand have our own destiny in our hands. Permanently. 

 

I know which future I would rather have and it's certainly not hibs'.

That's what disappointed me in an otherwise fantastic day.  Had we not conceded so quickly after going 2 up, their end would have been even more empty, and had Boyce put away that chance before half time and we went 3-0 up, we'd have had the stadium pretty much to ourselves.

Apparently celebrating after a win in a derby is bad patter, doesn't align with Hibs values as they never celebrate derby wins.
