suds66 Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 These clowns never learn, after being humiliated in Europe and scrapping a win against Motherwell, Yogi is still talking about their "Style of football" Let?s hope normal service is resumed after today?s game, HMFC above the Flumps in the league? Hibernian manager John Hughes: "We have to have belief and trust in our style of play and try and take the game to Rangers "It's still a bit of a mixed bag. You don't know what you're going to get. We'll always score goals with the quality we have up front. "I want an expansive style of play but I want to keep the back door shut as well and be ruthless in our defending. "And that starts from the front. Can the forwards work harder, get that tackle in and close down." http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/scot_prem/8930132.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosanostra Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 As we all know, the flair myth is what your average Hobo clings onto to make up for a life of being 2nd best in a footballing city that is pretty much 2nd best. They have had no real success and have been completely dominated in every way by their rivals so they have invented something intangible and subjective that they can cling onto to make themselves feel better about life as our bitches. They are so sad and transparent it's actually quite funny. It must be quite an unhappy, squalid existence supporting Hibs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gods a Jambo Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I hope the luck they got last week has disappeared today and they get ripped apart by the Huns. The levels of delusion amongst Hibbys is truly frightening. That said, i hope they keep it up as it makes it even sweeter when reality bites.

I like it better when they stick to their traditional style of being pumped right from the off and then keep up a steady flow of poor results until the end of the season. That's the real Hobo way.

Craigieboy Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 They actually believe it despite the woeful displays that they have put on week after week and after being humped (twice) last season by Hearts 'industrial' approach.

That's the only possible eventual outcome for the Hobos. Last season's league campaign, Scottish cup exit and this years Europa assault sums Hibernian FC up perfectly. The only oddity was that we had such a bad season ourselves that we finished below them. We still beat them home and away and finished unbeaten against them but our results against smaller teams under our last manager hindered us too much.

suds66 Posted August 22, 2010 Author Share Posted August 22, 2010 I agree with what you are saying, but is does not help the situation when the press continually talk about "Flair" in regards to how the Flumps play. Since the start of pre season the Hobbit's have played the "Dutch way", the "Brazil way", "Their style" and "expansive football" You could not make it up, I bet when the deluded ones watch the highlights from the Arsenal game against Blackpool, they will say that's how they play!

I personally think it's great when the press help them perpetuate their flair myth and it's even funnier when they let the "Leith Rain Man" speak to the press and he comes out with gems like the above. It makes it even funnier laughing at them when we invariably pump them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linkin- hearts Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I actually thought the phrase "expansive football" had something to do with them having widened their pitch as i can't see any difference in their style of play. Riordan still moans a lot, Stokes just seems to get in everybody's way and Miller keeps running down blind alleys. I have to say, it's all dutch to me:whistling: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
