queensferryjambo Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 I was in FOPP with my daughter today and whilst bored a book at the counter caught my eye. It was 'Hibs on this day; History, FACTS and figures apparently. I presumed that there would be no mention of the 19th of May 2012. I presumed they would just pick some random match played in another year on the 19th of May that they won. I presumed wrong and was loving their FACTS in this little piece about the 19th of May 2012. How many excuses and how much bullshit can you fit into one paragraph Glad they got in the FACT that referee Craig Thomson was a Hearts fan though. Obviously being from Paisley the hot bed of Hearts fans who can argue with that fact. Even the line about Hearts not scoring 7 makes me think the authors were crying when they wrote this. Still they are over it right? Pure Hibs Fibs gold - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montgomery Brewster Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 4 minutes ago, Class of 75 said: Twice? Mismanagement over the next few years led to the demise of Hibernians. The club inexplicably failed to attend a meeting which led to the formation of the Scottish Football League in 1890. This meant that Hibs did not participate in the league, while Edinburgh rivals Heartsand St Bernard's were founder members of the league.[21] Not participating in the league meant that Hibs found friendly matchopponents harder to come by, while the lease on Hibernian Park expired.[22] Hibs became homeless and the club effectively ceased operations during 1891, which meant that the remaining star players (including captainJames McGhee) moved to Celtic.[22 ‘They’ claim they have won it as below . When any non vermin can read the above and see that they did not exist and reformed with a new name. Ala sevco Hibs have won the Scottish Cup three times, in 1887, in 1902 and 2016. lies !

Montgomery Brewster Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 The club was reconstituted in 1892, and the club acquired a lease on a site that was to become known as Easter Road.[23] A significant change at the time of the reformation of Hibs was that players no longer had to be members of the Catholic Young Men's Society. On 4 February 1893, the club played its first match at Easter Road.[23] The club belatedly entered the Scottish Football League during the 1893–94 season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debut 4 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 It’s embarrassing. Any myth to make themselves look like they’ve been hard done by or cheated. A nugget to make people think they’ve been conspired against. Pathetic but they have absolutely no shame in embarrassing themselves. As long as it fits into the Hibs bubble and future generations of muppets believe it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martoon Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Give Lugton's "Making of Hibernian" trilogy a bash. Every paragraph, page and chapter is like that. Hibs are the angelic, righteous, saintly...Hearts are petty, evil and totally nasty. Easter Road is the "Holy Ground", Tynecastle is "The Hole", Hibs' derby wins are gone into in great detail, Hearts' are either a one sentence footnote or often skipped over altogether... It's like a boo-hiss panto script. Borrow them from the library, as I did, and brace yourself for the funniest, most ludicrously romanticised history ever written about a football club. Alternatively, borrow them from a Hibby and purchase a clothes pegs whilst doing so. The horseshite is overpowering. Quick sample of 1935 when Hearts thrashed Hibs 5-2 on New Year's day then, in September, 8-3: The former: ...and on Boxing day (1934) Hibs played Patrick Thistle. In March... The latter: In the September derby there were 11 goals. I'm paraphrasing, although not as much as you would hope, but that's the kind of thing to expect. The next derby on New Year's day 1936 was an heroic, last gap equalizer for Hibs, 1-1 draw. You'll think you were there such is the detail.

Vlad Magic Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 They should be keeping their precious gums shut. Ron is currently going through their finances with a fine toothed comb with a view to increase turnover (widely reported). This in itself is admirable and should be done by any decent CEO. The season ticket sales and turnover simply do not add up however. The widespread abuse of concession ST has been highlighted again as a major issue and something he is desperate to stamp out. On top of that there is also wise spread abuse of free ST for carers of disabled supporters. Disabled is concession with carer FOC. It’s been abused along with student concessions etc etc. Expect a massive tightening up on both of these next season. The thousands on cheap ST’s are going to have to pony up and pay the correct amount. Many wont and will simply stop going. All is not well with Hibs finances on the back of this. Expect a big fall in their sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
