Ryan Gosling Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Do you think Barca might change their strip sponsorship from Unicef to some sort of Leith Reprobate program? After all, once they see their scab-covered, unwashed fans bedecked in their sick-green shirts waving their needle-tracked arms and gnashing their yellow, rotting teeth, they might feel an ounce of sorrow. Then again, maybe not. I'd imagine once Barcelona's players step out onto the Murrayfield pitch they'll think two things: "What is that smell? and "Where have the crowd gone?" as Hibs fans disguise themselves as seats once again. Its the Hibernian way. Don't forget "Where is Ksanavicius?". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vegas-voss Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 There's absolutely no way Hibs will get anywhere near our attendance at Murrayfield, but to be honest i don't care. If it was the other way around you'd have Hibs reminding us for years about their big game against Barca when they got 58,000, but i'd like to think that Hearts have better things to be proud of (that's whole different thread!).Mon the hearts p.s. I saw one of their tv adverts for the game, something along the line of "total fast football" or something just as hilarious, they leithers crack me up It is total fast football as it won't take Jones long to punt it from one end to the other(with flair of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therapist Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Messi is different class. Could be equivalent to going to watch a young Maradona live. I saw Maradona live. Difference is that I saw him at Hampden playing against Scotland. I certainly wouldn't have paid money to the Leithers to see him. Your point about the vermin not making money from the game is irrelevant. You will still be giving them money and, in doing so, will reduce any loss they incur. Fact.

Munch Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I canny wait to see the Hobo attendance:) I think it will be embarrassingly low. Wee fecking team alright:107years: The game will be switched to fester road, due too lack off interest, and even fester road will not be full for the game.

Deans Jambo Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I''ll be p***in myself as much as anyone with their low attendance but i have to say that our attendance was made up of at least 50% neutrals (maybe even some hibees)! I knew several folk from out this way that had never been to a football match in their nelly duff that were taking their kids to the barca match. I decided a long time ago to never attend another pre-season game but couldn't avoid the lure of Barca. Now after watching the dullest 90 mins in their lives do think anyone would want to repeat the 'barca experience'. Unless they enjoy training games. (Note to self): Do not attend another friendly match, REGARDLESS OF OPPOSITION. FTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Barcelona will be gutted having to slum it with these inbred mutants. Playing in a half empty stadium to a load of ugly, ugly people. This will probably put them off coming back to Scotland next year. Surely if they were scared of ugly, ugly inbred mutants ugly people then they wouldn't be going back to the city of Dundee for a second year running.

Elmo Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I really can't beleive that Platinum one thought that the neutrals could be duped twice into paying to watch a game that has lost it's biggest draw (Ronaldinho) and was utter gash as a football game last year. It does however cheer me no end to see all the cretins on.net completely contradict all the things they said last year when we were playing them. Anybody could sell out Murrayfeild for a game against BARCA It's costing Hearts a million quid to stage the game. etc etc etc etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Dung Heap Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Your point about the vermin not making money from the game is irrelevant. You will still be giving them money and, in doing so, will reduce any loss they incur. Fact. Sorry to pee on the fire so to speak, but this is inaacurate.....The Hobos will not gain or lose anything whether theres one man and his dog there or 65000. The game is being staged by Platinum One. They hire out Murrayfield, Tannadice etc, pay for stewards, police, Barca's fees and accomodation for the few days etc. They also receive the ticket income less the SRU / Hobos / DUFCs handling charge. The theory is that they cream off a nice profit once all the fees are paid for (as happened last year). I can't be ars*d working out the finances of say 2 14k crowds this year, but gut feel is that Platinum One could be looking at a loss. Unfortunately the Hobos are unaffected - they receive a nominal match fee from Platinum One, as did HMFC last year. Still wouldn't make me go like... http://www.platinumonegroup.com/PLATINUM_ONE_announces_FC_Barcelonas_return_to_Scotland/Default.354.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
