EggMan Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Christ on a bike what a tit. Have you ever observed a minutes applause? If you have you will have noticed that there are always songs sung in tribute to whoever has passed away. You question whether the Hibs support is supposed to listen in to every chant of the Hearts support, well in this instance the answer to that would be yes, before you marr the occasion by booing (doesn't matter what you are booing, you shouldnt boo during something like that, wait till after) you should have listened to what we were actually chanting before you jumped to whatever conclusion you jumped to. Embarassment each and every one of you. That includes your team. Complete joke of a club you really are. Get over yourself. It was all down to confusion, don't kid yourself otherwise.

Boof Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 That is definately the case. It is a shame that this confusion happened, but but's exactly what it was: confusion. It was NOT clear to most of the Hibs support at the game that your support were not infact singing Hearts songs. It may have been clear to those watching on Zitelli or the radio, but that's irrelevant; it wasn't clear to those at the match. So the Hobos immediately assumed Hearts fans would mar the recognition of a fine man by singing Hearts songs? What a shower of numbskulls. Really, just so frikkiin' stupid.

Ignorance is no excuse under the law -- so Hobo stop trying to defend your bunch of deaf fans whe got it wrong and made a complete arse of themselves -- just like the hard men who attacked a bus on which were a number of women and children.

Gizmo Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Yes but as the Hibs fans there were quite clearly not watching on TV, songs from the away support are not as easy to hear due to the noise around them. Pretty simple really. But continue on your crusade... Perhaps if the hobos weren't so eager to jump on their high horses in the first place we wouldn't have this thread?

Romanov Stole My Pension Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 I personally thought the Hearts supporters chant of One Eddie Thompson was a bit cringeworthy to be honest. He was very good for Dundee Utd and Scottish football, but Hearts supporters would never have sung that about him when he was alive. I may be a little out of order but I just felt it was jambos trying to display themselves in good light rather than actually pay homage to the man.

Your 'fans' tarnished a good gesture (doesnt matter what you thought we were chanting, the honourable thing to do would be to observe it properly then boo us afterwards. Yes they did tarnish a good gesture, but mistakenly so. The booing was directed at what was conceived as disprespect on the part of the Hearts support, and this was done immediately rather than after the minute was up. Now I appreciate this leaves the Hibs support open to criticism as booing during a minutes applause can easily be misconstrued as disrespect aimed at the deceased, as you have done, but the Hibs fans felt that it was Hearts fans who were being disrespectful, and thus communicated this at once. In hindsight, the boos were unjust, but at the time things were not clear. In your view, taking into account the Hibs fans thought it was Hearts songs being sung, then the only dishonourable thing about the behaviour of the Hibs fans was that they didn't wait to communicate their displeasure at this (percieved) act of disrespect. Again, in hindsight, perhaps they should have waited, but they did not. At this was not out of disrespect, but more born out of anger at percieved disrespect from the Hearts support.

The boos were in no way aimed at the late Eddie Thomson, despite the Hearts support on here doing exactly what the Hibs fans did earlier today and unjustly turning it that way, the difference being that it is being done knowingly - i.e. you all know the boos stemmed from confusion. That is the crux of the matter. Your argument wittles down to the fact that the Hibs fans should've waited till after the minute was up to express their displeasure at this percieved disprespect, and this point I have already addressed.

The facts are: Hearts fans sung One Eddie Thompson Hibs fans thought we were singing Hearts songs and booed. It would have been wiser not to boo at all especially when you say you didn't even know what we were singing. Instead, Hibs fans should have carried on applauding and avoided any of this confusion.
