Johnny Sandiego Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) They are now just a click bate comic who run deliberately divisive articles/headlines to wind folk up. Thus leading to more views and more advertising money. Its gutter press tactics at best. They also have a habit of spreading one article over 2 and also running those god awful picture articles which go over 3 and 4 pages.

I read the EEN every day to keep up with local new and inevitably end up reading the football ‘news’. Anybody who doesn’t think they have an affinity to hibs clearly doesn’t read it. It’s so obvious it’s not even debateable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prefer Andrex meself. Softer, more absorbent and doesn’t leave ink on yer arse. I’m not paranoid but anyone who doesn’t think the media have a love in for our city neighbours is deluded. Is everyone out to get us? Nah. Do they prefer the OF status quo? You can bet your arse they do.

Not sure if Preston should be included for the same reason either. Barnsley might be worth the watching over the next wee while though to see if they crop up enough but I reckon theyre more a flash in the pan paranoia. So far- Definitely against us- Every referee every week Edinburgh Evening News Sportsound and all their pundits except Tom English but absolutely Willie Miller Charlie Nicholas Maybe against us- Gary MacKay Mickey Stewart Allan Preston Potentially against us Barnsley.
