I love the stats that highlight just how bad there home form is against us. Ours isnt much better in the Cup but the losses don't outweigh the wins

[Craigieboy]

History goes out the window with this one.

 

They are a sh itty little club and we will pi ss all over them.

 

Thank you & goodnight.

Can someone remind me what happened the last time we met them in the Cup? I have a very short memory...

Thanks for that. It's all coming back to me now!

 

Even before a ball was kicked, however, you sensed that the Hearts supporters felt it was going to be their day.

 

As Carnival de Paris belted out the speaker system, they bounced up and down and sang their hearts out while the Hibs support remained strangely subdued.

 

Happy memories.

[Hearts Heritage]

The game is a 'one off' and no amount interpretation of the stats will predict the winner.

 

Hearts have a marginal advantage in away games Winning 5 to Hibs 4.

 

Though at Easter Road Hearts have only lost once and won 4.

 

3-Feb-1900 SC 2nd-Replay Hibernian 2-1 Easter Road 12000

23-Mar-1901 SC SF-Replay Hibernian 2-1 Easter Road 18000

19-Feb-1910 SC 3rd-Abandoned Hibernian 1-0 Easter Road 30000

Game Abandoned Hibs win replay at Tynecastle

10-Feb-1912 SC 1st-Replay Hibernian 1-1 Easter Road 18000

15-Feb-1930 SC 3rd Hibernian 3-1 Easter Road 28000

10-Mar-1979 SC QF Hibernian 1-2 Easter Road 22618

So a draw may not be the worst result for Hibs.

[cuddledoon]

A replay might NOT be good for Hibs - as they have NEVER won a Scottish Cup replay against us after a drawn match !!!!! (They did win the 1910 game after Hearts were winning the abandoned first tie).

[cuddledoon]

It's over 75 years since there has been a Scottish Cup replay between Hearts and Hibs !!

so who was man of the match ?

[cuddledoon]

Hibs have only ever beaten us ONCE in a Scottish Cup tie at Easter Road !

 

Long may that record endure.

[brownkg]

Thanks for that. It's all coming back to me now!

Happy memories.

Shouldn't that be UNFOLDED or Disguised?

They have been paired together 21 times in the past. So it is 21 ties.

 

Hearts winning 12

Hibs winning 9

 

= 21 'winners' of the games

 

There have been 7 draws and 3 abandoned games which resulted in replays.

is 3 abandonments in 24 meetings not quite a lot? any idea why were they abandoned? or was this quite common in ye olde times.

Disputes were quite commonplace in the early football era.

Hibs won the match when it was finally played

 

 

 

 

The one in 1910 was a 'crowd break in'

[loveofthegame]

So taking out games in the 19th Century and very early 20th, we've beaten them 11x to their 4 victories.

 

Sounds good to me.

[Era Macaroons]

Thanks, interesting reading & informative as ever.

 

Had to laugh at the bit where the ref stopped it when the crowd were 3 yards onto the pitch (as if just 1 or 2 yards on the pitch was ok).

 

[Deek]

Going back to the 79 cup game. I recall standing in the Dunbar end when the Hobo's beat us 2-1.

 

You have Gordon Rae and Ralph Callaghan down as their scorers, but I thought George Stewart scored for them. I vaguely remember a newspaper headline which said something like "By George its Stewart", but it was a long time ago.
