Tommy Walker Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 It wouldn't take a forensic scientist to determine, or at least have a good guess at, the Hibs trolls on here. Is there a similar bunch of Hearts fans who troll them ? If so, maybe we should have a forum exclusively/only for both groups ? A keyboard square go of the mighty trolls !

Alex Kintner Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Sadly I think some of the posters you think are trolls are actually just so bitter and entrenched in their positions that their hyperbolic posts abusing our own staff and players just makes them seem like Hibs trolls.

Markymark Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Interesting view really. Some people demonstrate their frustrations in different ways. Last 8 weeks have been grim in all honesty. I could list a dozen reasons for this but I’d be repeating what others haven’t already said. For me Levein has to take responsibility and make sure he absolutely puts a rocket up this team. He protects the players to much by blaming other factors such as ref and injuries. Out of 18 players only 3 would get pass marks in my opinion. (Haring, Naismith, Dunne) the others are bang average at best. 2 players in on 3 year contracts and instantly loaned out, £400k spent on Wighton and Clare with early signs pointing to money wasted again. Levein doesn’t seem capable of changing tactics during a game, and continually repeats the same mistakes next game. 4 years and not one single youth players managing to cement a first team position. For the number of coaches we have I don’t see any improvement in any of our players since the beginning of the season, quite the opposite. I personally think it’s for him to step away from Hearts in all capacities. I won’t be screaming for his head but I certainly won’t be rushing in now on Boxing Day !

Good cover story, sounds like a simple case of Hobo trolls being right under our noses, simple but very effective.

ToadKiller Dog Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Been on here since its early days there has always been trolls and always been ultra negative torn turnip hearts fans. The trolls for the most part eventually get carried away and out themselves and the torn turnips at some point leave in the huff only to come back later under a different name. Not worth bothering to much, same happens on most social media forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trolls are bad but the arseholes who go from the view we can win the league one week to everyone needs sacked the next is tiresome, its like you cant have a measured view inbetween. Guess thats just social media though, where a balanced view doesnt get a reaction. Edited December 16, 2018 by Jamboelite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Shame about trolling. Some of the time people need to be criticised.

I don't have an account over there - however maybe people delight in their misery and the only way they can see it fully is to have an account. As Hibs.net routinely lock down their forum after a defeat, I believe they say this is due to the traffic they then receive. Forgive me if I am mistaken but surely after a defeat there is less traffic - I generally avoid this place after Hearts get a doing. I enjoy to read their pain but surely our number who go over to laugh at their expense is greatly outnumbered by those hiding after a defeat. One thing you can say about JKB is the forum has courage no matter the situation on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizarre Berra wasn’t signed as part of the 18 players and uche has played 6 league games scoring 1 goal so whilst he works hard the jury is out for me still on. 3 goals against Cowdenbeath and Inverness don’t warrant me classing the big man as a success. Point proven though when we talk about trolls. You picked what you wanted and didnt acknowledge the other points. This place is farcical when you don’t agree with the apologists of Craig Levein.
