Heard sales have slowed to a drip myself. Rumours eh

I have good memories of him.  A very good player

Another who couldn't get out the door fast enough when Celtic came calling.

Listen to Leanne's long awaited update.

Or read the short version

York Hibbies

Waste of seven minutes! To save others:

Working to improve the stadium access problems.
She speaks to Ron regularly.
Room to improve initial results.
Nearly 13k season tickets sold.

I hope they are happy to pay for the Usher Hall to remove all the stains there will be on carpets and seats after he's been there.

Unfortunately so are we and they are above us in the league

[Gordon Ramsay]

Hibs are terrible but they are above us in the league so what does that make us? 

 

Levein should be ashamed of himself. 

[FWJ]

For good or ill Kickback’s still up and running.

Which is more than can be said for .ned

 

Pants must still be in the tumble drier over there.

It's just a shame that we are in no position to laugh at them atm, thanks to our management team.

It currently reads like a Hibs mirror of JKB.  Get rid of manager, signings are crap, players looking anxious and not performing, problems go beyond the manager, who can they get to replace Heckingbottom, I'm never going back as long as he's the manager etc. etc.

 

Would be hilarious if we weren't in such a predicament ourselves.

In 1985, we lost five of the first nine league games (two draws and two wins) before going on the amazing run. I can't recall how they started (although one of our wins was against them).

Aye and pretty sure one of the defeats was a 5=2 skelping from the mighty Clydebank.

Was it not St Midden, and 6-2, although I think we also lost to Clydebank in that opening spell.

Don't give a **** about your team but it's definitely not the worst start Heart of Midlothian have had.

We lost 1-0 at home to Clydebank, i think. The game that started the run. 0-0 at Tannadice a week after IIRC.

A week after the Clydebank game, that we lost 1-0 away we drew 1-1 with Dundee at home and then went on the run, all thanks to London Hearts website and not my aged memory so no smarty pants moments here I am afraid  I

One extra point was all we needed so it was over before it began

But it was a fun ride till the end.

[martoon]

Iirc, Hibs lost their first 6, perhaps 7, league games in 1985/86 whilst simultaneously reaching the League Cup final.

 

It was that kind of season.

6-2 to st mirren yip!!! Think what that could have done to the goal difference if it had maybe only been 3-2!! 

[Texia]

We’re in a shite position at the moment there no getting past that, but you can’t help but laugh at how quick they’ve turned on Hecky.

Fair enough

 

My memory was from the book i had years ago, going through every result of the season. I liked that book.

[Worthing Jambo]

We sat at the Clydebank game contemplating relegation that season.

Amazing how quickly circumstances can change.

Especially under a manager with drive and will to win!!!

It's also very odd that our manager was a massive part of that team where the blend of youth and experience was bang on. The older players brought in were bang on. The desire and will to win were bang on. That team was everything this one isn't. Made of glass, can't score goals, carrying passengers, played to win every game.

[Turkishcap]

Well look not too bad a side, on 4500 crowds they do well, well.

That thing at the Usher Hall - if they were acting out A Man for All Seasons with Eck as Thomas More and SirAlex as Henry VIII, I'd go.

Different era and different culture, back in those days you had to clean up the shite(sometimes literally) in the stands, clean boots and go through a real apprenticeship, once you got your chance you had to take it or you were on a YTS on about 4 quid a week... made you want it. Boys now a days get pampered and very few have that same desire to succeed. The older players didn’t have the comfort of massive salaries to bank so the longer they stayed in the game the better. Very few from any of our squads through the 80s/90s have stayed in the game most are taxi drivers, posties and tradesmen now.

 

Now a quick call to your agent and your off to a new club and not one shite is given about the club your leaving. We currently have a team who just aren’t responding to our manager and perhaps he is past his sell by date and we need a new modern thinking coach who knows how to get the best out these players.

 

The Hibs manager is different, he’s completely underestimated this league and thought a few carthorses from England’s Sunday amateur leagues could cut it up here!

Pretty much nails it. Real lack of desire generally because you're financially alright anyway. Different approach required.

Although everyone knows how the season ended, the first game ended in a draw with Celtic - they scored an injury time equaliser!
