Debut 4 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 TBH, i didn`t feel like coming on JKB today. (i hear you say feck off then!) I am genuinely gutted by our loss last night. But it was more in the way of how the team played more than anything else. Even the lack of disappointment amongst supporters seemed to be not all there. I don`t take big game defeats as badly as i used to,back when i was 15,16, but it still hurts. But that`s the thing. I got back to the bus and young lads about 15,16 hardly raised a moan or grump. I know life goes on, but back in the day sometimes you could hear a pin drop on supporters buses after a big semi or final defeat., it was total silence for most of the trip back. Is it because we have won two cups in the last 9 years that it does`nt feel so bad now? Personally, i`m GAGGING to see Hearts win another trophy, i long for the day Hearts become a regular trophy winning team. Maybe being brought up during the Eighties has engrained a fear in me that Hearts might never win one again? But, from the damp squib of a performance last night and the seemingly lack of genuine disappointment amongst the fans, is the deep rooted passion of the past fizzling out?

Bindy Badgy Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 I think a lot of people have been worn down by the circus sideshow that we've been putting up with since Burley was sacked. Defeats are less of an effect on me know than they did at the start of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Seeger Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 When the main thread on here is about how people should not slag an ex hibs gaffer and threads moaning about the away support being "rough" and swearing to much you do tend to think the passion is on it's way out. Very sad imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stirlo Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 I know what you mean Debut 4. I think its just a case that we've had such an awful season that last night's game just summed it up really and the defeat did not come as a surprise to anyone. I also think that when you've been following Hearts over the last 20 years or so our record in semis is poor to say the least so we are used to dealing with the disappointment. I do have a feeling that things are going to improve next season though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if it was a Scottish Cup semi...... It was only the diddy cup (now we're out of it) after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T.F.Robertson Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 As far away as I am, (distance-wise) I have to say, I felt nothing much more than a sense of acceptance, as opposed to my normal ranting and raving. I agree with Stokesy, I also think it's inevitable after all that's gone on the last couple of years. As an aside, you can ditto that for the players, IMO, we've all slowly but surely been "ground down". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know. Were was the reaction at going behind?(the players that is). There was just no visual response from the players, there was no sweating blood, no throwing ourselves in where it hurts, no jousting for the second ball if a player miscontrolled his first touch, the players did`nt want it enough. These games tell you alot about your team. I`d empty a lotof them because they don`t have the mentality for the big game and will never bring us success no matter how many semis we get to.
