Rudolf Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 These muppets go on about us playing their reserves being the reason that they had so many gaps in their end and that we rammed 4 past them on that lovely day. Their team included Caldwell, Whittaker, Fletcher, Sproule, Murphy, Thomson, Hogg, Smith, Glass and Benji the dug. Super Zibi was also their first choice keeper. Hardly a reserve team. They now get all misty eyed at the loss of half of these mugs. So only Brown, Rat Boy, Killen & Mikey Stewart missing but I'm sure they were playing when we pumped them 4-0 and 4-1 at Tynecastle. Can't remember who we had missing but I'm sure it included Bednar, Fyssas, McCann and didn't Elvis have to go off injured midway through the game. Anyone with a better memory than me?

Goncalves was preferred to Fyssas (presumably with the pace of Sproule in mind). Bednar and Brellier were both suspended for us. What a great day that was. ps: You're right by the way... Brown, Rat Boy, Killen & Mikey Stewart all played when we pumped them 4-0 and 4-1 at Tynecastle that same season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Wiseau Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 They had to sell all their best players just before the game, which really ruined their preparations. John Collins, Andy Goram & Franck Sauzee were particularly missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigandy Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Of course, they were missing O'Connor that day... I had a great conversation with a Hibs fan after the semi. Hob - Broon, Ratboy, O'Connor all never played for us Me - But you have sold O'Connor Hobo - Aye but we still didnt have him in our team Me - Because he isnt a Hibs player - you never had Zidane playing for you either Hobo - But hes not a Hibs player so why would we have him Me - O'Connor isnt a Hibs player either so why would you have him Hobo - He used to be a Hibs player so he was one of our missing players. Hibs ignoring logic since 1875. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had forgotten about the rumours sweeping through Edinburgh that Riordan had signed a new deal and bought a new car with the signing on fee. Makes it funnier that he was screwing them for Celtic of the eve of their biggest game for decades! Some hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 probably the most tension packed day out to the football i have ever had, i don't mind admitting i was worried sick. when janny rolled it in, all the worry and tension just went up in a puff of smoke. got to be in my top 5 football memories that goal.

Cade Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I loved it when the tranfer window shut and O'Connor was still with them and they were all full of confidence. Of course, the end of a transfer window only means you cannot BUY any more players. As the vermin found out to their horror, you can still SELL a player at any time.

Mr Romanov Saviour of HMFC Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Pat Stanton was a crucial miss for them that day. Stanton outside Easter Road waiting or the team bus. Stanton outside Hampden after being told he wasn't playing. Stanton at Christmas that year. Stanton a few hours ago. Stantons cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winston churchill Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 what a season three different yam managers put four past sir tony of lochends all stars in the same season. surely some kind of record. as for the semi final result. the lochend can dress it up any way the want.they got done doggy and still wake up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night thinking about it. what also winds them up is the fact that, a pub team took us into penalties;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone with a better memory than me? aye, i remind the Hobos we pumped them with their super duper "young" world stars aswell. Overated and always have and will be. I can never recall Brown playing well in a derby in particular. 4-0 is a trouncing in any shape or form. We outplayed, out fought and beat Hibs into submission as their players lost the plot. Some other SPL sides of supposed lesser talent would have given us a stiffer test. Well, Gretna did in the final anyway. Puts the Hobos to shame.

JamboJen Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Had a scroll forward to the threads on the match. Other fans asking why there were so many spaces in the Hibs end and they've got fans saying there's bad roadworks around Hampden!! Aye because Hampden's THAT big that Hearts and Hibs fans will take completely different routes to get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolf Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 Just remembered another well worn Hobo excuse... 'We couldn't train in the week before the game because it was muddy!!' Pathetic.
