To be fair I never seen a wee laddie with the guy that was getting some stick, what I remember there was only 1 maybe 2 peedo shouts/song towards him because he was doing some 'sexual' type gestures and when there's a bunch of wee laddies with sect43 then its a bit wrong that he was directing it towards our younger laddies.
Please don't go into sect43 bashing mode as half us are trying our bests, we didn't have to try so hard with the excellent hibs crowd there cheering the team on. In all honesty I'm no sure where a few are getting that we sing the peedo songs a lot when we don't.

Have to say that whilst some of the songs may be questionable the section 43 crowd bring back memories of my younger years in the east. Refreshing to see the return of a bit of Hibby mentalness that has sadly declined over the last few years.
I for one hope that this group grow and grow because they bring a bit of colour to the proceedings.
We need this demographic following our team. The next generation.
As a 36 year old dad taking my son to the games now can only look on with a bit of nostalgia as they bounce up and down singing and dancing.
I'm sure I sung a few 'non pc' songs on the east in my younger days and went a bit mental. Bring those days back I say!!
....we are the mental HFC...

We as a support need to join in more, join in with the songs we all agree with. If those that are starting the chanting hear this, then those songs will get sung more, everyones a winner.

I'm sure that a lot of folk would be more than willing to singalong- even the non PC stuff, but there are limits.
I also think, these boys need to be in the middle of the East to have the desired effect. They seem isolated in a fairly sparsely populated bit of the ground to me.
The idea is there- I hope we do see a return to louder and more frequent singing in the ground. I enjoyed it on Saturday.

As I stated, more than happy to meet up at the next game and have you point them out as everyone I travelled with sit together in the East.
Anything to shoot the group down I suppose.

Wherer were the main crowd in the stand? The whole stand was packed, not one section, so it was all the "main crowd".

Whoa steady, I asked one lad who was about 18 and was in the section at the front down to the left the question and that was the answer I got so it wasn't utter bollocks from me at all!!! There was certainly more than 18 in that section at the time, I don't know if he was the so called S43 at all how would I (do you have S43 tattooed on yer foreheads or summit)? Not trying to shoot down your group at all, the question was asked on here why the song about a paedo so I gave the answer I was given from someone in that area.
I don't think there will be any need for an identity parade do you?Last edited by Scouse Hibee; 16-01-2012 at 07:19 PM.

Exactly. So you asked a Hibs fan why he was singing it. I didn't sing it although people to the left of us certainly did. You assumed he was part of the group and saying that S43 are singing about paedos is making a wild assumption. No wonder we get shot down and a bad name for ourselves at times.

"I asked one of them"
Who are them? Considering all previous references were made to S43, it would be a sensible guess that you meant one of us.
We are trying our best to keep a bit of atmosphere going at what has been a dreadful time for us all as Hibs fans. It get on my nerves seeing constant digs and negative posts about the group when all we have done is tried to install a bit of atmosphere again, add colour, have displays and create new songs.
This isn't directed at anyone specifically, just the general concensus across this board.

I thought down the front worked well Watching you guys bouncing and singing from row x was great to see! Not sure if it was coincidence but it was interesting to see Garry and Lee head towards you guys after the 3rd goal. It must have some sort of effect on the players seeing that madness?
Ideally, I'd love to see the entire famous 5 stand turned into an 'ultras' kind of section. Imagine 3500 with flags and banners bouncing up and down, that would be awesome!
Keep up the good work guys :pfgwa

As much as it pains me to say it we've lacked in this department for a few years now. We need the next generation bringing back a bit of oomph to proceedings.
Saturdays atmosphere (albeit winning helps) was as good as I've experienced in a long time I'm aware away games generally seem to create a more tribal feel amongst fans but I genuinely feel it had an impact on the players.
That's why a more realistic starting point of the ff stand would be an idea. I know for a fact I'd buy my season ticket in there if the atmosphere was like Saturday
Getting a bit carried away here but get someone with a mega phone in there as well starting the chants and the place would explode!
For the record it was the entire support how done us proud on Sat..

Discussions are taking place about piloting the FF for a few games. The FF lower would certainly be easier to do displays.

Famous Five would be a good shout, i'm not the biggest fan of where we are at the moment. We are gradually getting better, trying to drop most of the 'silly' type songs. Alot of younger laddies joining onto us now so we hope to guide them to 100 percent back the team and step away from the anti hearts songs.
Celebrations from saturday left a few of our members injured one of the wee lads basically crowd surfed to the front over several rows great scenes though.

Might be worth writing to John Boag. At the moment the only approved standing area is Section43. You will need the OK from Hibs otherwise it will be a sit-down affair
It will be good to see singing in 2 parts of the ground - boy sopranos in the FF - male voice choir in the East

You'd be lifted within minutes for singing some of the chants we sang in the 70's/ 80's
