thegreatsd Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Last game I ever left early I missed the seventh against hamilton accies. It was Robbos 100th goal for hearts. Never left a game early since because of that. Lesson learned the hard way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWL Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Missed dozens, especially against Hibs. Just can't sit there when we're losing against them.

Mikey1874 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 The 2 late goals against Rangers 1984. Was still in the ground but too many people near exits.

martoon Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Missed Robbo's opener on Wayne Foster day. Got to the top of that dirt track hill, squeezed on to the Dunbar end and discovered we were already 1-0 up. Strange thing was that, at the moment Robbo scored and the Hearts support went wild, we must have been walking past the school and/or approaching the turnstiles. Iirc, you could even see the fans on the Dunbar end after you'd passed that building and their main stand entrance came into view. But, we neither heard nor saw a thing. Yes, drink had been drunk, but not that much. Still a mystery to me how we could be so close to ER but be oblivious to the fact Hearts had scored.

The Bannon Flick Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) Missed a very late equaliser at East End Park back in the 90's. Hearts were murder that day, seem to recall it was extremely windy and freezing cold. We were in the terrace opposite the main stand and were outside the ground behind the terracing at the away end when we heard the roar go up. Had to wait until we were back in the car to find out Scott Crabbe had grabbed the goal to snatch a 1-1 draw. Also, very nearly missed Colquhoun's goal in the Scottish Cup semi-final v Dundee Utd in 1986. Had been held up massively on the way to Hampden and had just found our spot on the terracing when JC smashed in what would turn out to be the one and only goal of the game. Having re-read the post title, the goal we missed wasn't that vital or important tbh - but there you go Edited October 26, 2021 by The Bannon Flick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitzroy Pointon Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Only one that springs to mind is the last minute penalty at Ibrox. Think it was 93/94 season and we were 2-1 down. Got onto the concourse and the shout went up but we couldn't get back up the stairs due to the crowd. Saw Willie Jamieson's last minute volley v. Celtic through that green mesh that was behind the goals when they knocked the terracing down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Findlay Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I missed Rudi's opener in the 2-1 semi final win over Celtic in 2012. I was last in the queue at the refreshments stall and got served after the 2nd half started. Was just turning round when to go back down to my seat when Rudi scored. Although I didn't see it as there was far to many blocking my view, I still went absolutely mental jumping about everywhere on the concourse, the chips went flying but I didn't care. The refreshment staff looked at me as if I was deranged, again I didn't care. The thing was I was at Hampden early that day and was sat outside reading a Sunday newspaper awaiting the turnstiles to open. Many fellow Hearts supporters walked past me asking how I could be so calm? I answered everyone of them the same. Don't worry we are winning today. It was just one of those times that I knew.

Debut 4 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Was just about to leave the ground at Dens when Alan Lawrence equalised in the 90th minute to make it 3-3 (finished 4-4 and lost on pens for those who don’t remember ) in the epic league cup game back in 95. I had my back to the pitch as did masses of other JTs. Managed to retake my place on the terracing and watch the remainder like many others.

They scored 4 goals, it's a funny game. It's often overlooked, by the Hibby in particular, that Hearts deserved a point that day. As you suggest, after they went 0-2 ahead we were all over them. The de Vries equaliser had inevitably written all over it and it looked like a Hearts winner would follow. It was only in the last few minutes of the 90 that the game started to get played in our half. I remember being slightly disappointed that it was going to finish 2-2 but overall that a draw was probably fair. The next 6 minutes was quite a roller coaster. 🎢 Edited October 26, 2021 by martoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left with my dad, By the time we were back to the van it was 4.4 😂 Left the Aberdeen v Hearts game league cup a few season ago we then scored as soon as I left the gates at Wheatfield we tried getting back in with 100's of other fans, security trying to stop everyone running back up the stairs. Got back in watched extra time and pens from Z. Edit - That league cup semi v Motherwell at Easter Road in 2005. Think it was 2.0 to Motherwell with 5 to go we scored to make it 2.1 I was in the old east stand right next to Motherwell fans we left walking behind the stand got to last door off the stand before the exit looked in seen the boy from Iceland making it 2.2 went back to our seats and conceded in the 120 min Edited October 26, 2021 by Stu_HMFC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midweek LC tie, bus held up by roadworks, soaked climbing over the hill to the beach end and, by the time we got in, 0-2 down after 15 minutes. Game over (0-3, ft) and a huge waste of time and money. Soaked again getting back to the bus and a long, miserable journey home. I didn't join the calls for Doddie's head at the end but the anger and frustration I could understand.

GinRummy Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) Probably missed a few but not many important or memorable ones. There was an early kick off once and I thought it was half an hour later starting. Got in and Lee Wallace had put us ahead really early on. Can’t remember for the life of me who it was against. Actually another one like that I remember. Against rangers, I was pretty young. Got in a few minutes late with my uncles and Scott Crabbe had scored, finished 1-0.

Took a bit of effort to convince him I wasn't winding him up. I was somewhere between the goals and the McLoed Street exit when we made it 1-2 so, fortunately, managed to see Robbo's equaliser. But only just. Vaguely recall finding myself pretty much out of the stadium when the celebrations died down.
