For the first time in ages I'm looking forward to our next game. What a transformation in the team. Skill, grit and determination in abundance. Great to see.
Well done Alan Stubbs

The Hibee Spirit is Back

Was saying that at the game tonight.
Both Sunday and tonight are the 1st games I can genuinely remember really enjoying for months, if not well over a year. Can't wait for Cowdenbeath now.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

Attacking football played with style and pace. Goals. Entertainment.
Hibs class.

Me too, edge of the seat stuff. Ok some poor defending but if we keep this up we won't be far away at the end of the season.
More than matched the premiership side

Definite progress.

All I meant that if its 0-0 after 70mins on Saturday,this place will be houchin of shouts of "disgrace" "cowards" "embarrassing" etc
No harm or digs intended, just the modern day fickle fan.
Saying that,still think we need to be much more ruthless and unfussy playing the "smaller" teams

Lot more spirit and guts about the team. If that had been last years team they would never have had the heart and desire to fight back 3 times after going behind - they would have crumbled and conceeded more most likely!
It's still not perfect but definatly heading in the right direction!

The fighting Irish spirit is back with a bit of style to boot. How long have we been waiting? Kudos to Stubbs for turning things round... Just get more wins

Winning games becomes a habit....as a club this is where we must strive too.
Nice to see us pass the ball about though.Last edited by TowerHibs; 29-10-2014 at 10:52 PM.

The effort's there, the skill's there, the team spirit's there. In my opinion, we're two or three players away from having a really good squad.
I'm gutted about how both games ended but on Sunday we were playing against a team that's sitting top of our league and defending an unbeaten start to the season and last night we were playing against a side that's sitting just a point from the top of the division above us.
I'm very encouraged by recent performances and we're actually starting to look like a competitive football team again.

Wow, the 'let's extinguish everything Irish because of what Celtic have done with it' brigade are out in force. It's some of you lot that need to grow up, and infact show some respect! Wether you like it or not Hibs were formed by IRISH (theres that word again) immigrants. Bloody deal with it! Go on yourself St Pat, I agree with you, the fighting Irish spirit is most certainly back!

The guy used a well known phrase 'The fighting Irish spirit' yet people feel the need to jump down the guys throat because the Irish subject came onto the message board. This is where I have a problem. I blame Celtic mostly, as they've posioned so many Hibs supporters views and emotions to a major part of our club history, which is Ireland based. Like it or lump it.

I get the sentiment but its never been a phrase associated with Hibs. Getting a bit fed up of people rewriting history to suit their own dewy eyed notion of what present day Edinburgh is about.
Im proud of the clubs entire story, from isolation to integration to leading the way. All done without rancour or bigotry. The plastic paddies on here go against everything Hibs are about.

We've had plenty of discussion about the topic on here, I don't think my views are that out of line with other people's.
As for "fighting Irish" it's not something I've ever heard used to describe Hibs.

OK I never seen that discussion. Calling someone a "plastic paddy" when they might be just a "paddy" is as sectarian a statement as any.
