They say they have no record of this and cannot understand what type of person may pose as a Police officer to try to stop Hearts scoring goals at Easter Road. Although they are discounting nothing.

Silvery_Moon Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Robbo said the police told Hearts not to score any more goals but also stressed that Hearts tried their hardest to score more but were unable to do so.

Doctor FinnBarr Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 A poster on here has claimed to be in the dressing room that day and confirmed it did happen. Can't remember the posters name but he refused to confirm who he actually was. Might be shite, don't know. My guess would be GM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martoon Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 we barely crossed half way in the second half, and no because Hibs had us under the cosh.

travellingjambo Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 The police came into the Dunbar end that day at half time and told us to stop laughing at the Hibs fans, else they'd have to let the ones who hadn't already left out early and it might conflict with the emptying out of the Mecca bingo hall at the foot of Leith walk. Fact!!! I know, i was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DETTY29 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Is it just me that doesn't think we were half as crap or Hibs half as good as they thought they were in all these games we didn't lose to them? You go in to the games expecting to win and comfortably and if it doesn't happen you think we have to have been crap or them brilliant. Similar to the last derby. You feel deflated because we didn't win but from 30 minutes to the 80th, 6 attempts for us and none for them. But you just remember the terrible 20 minute start and last 10 when we decided a point was enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debut 4 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 andi17 is a lifelong friend of a player who played in the mercer game. The "police told us to calm it" chat has become a bit of a wind-up from the players of that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
