Not always. The fans have been very quick to criticise and this is by no means the first time booing has been discussed on this forum.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

You are making this in to it's all the fans fault thread when it is clearly not, players were to blame today for not taking there chances, if we keep drawing against pish poor teams in the championship at home then the fans will let the players no it.
Bring on the kippers.

I understand folk were booing at the end of the Yams game last week. That'll be the day that I'll ever accept the manky mob being held up as an example to us.

As a guy who's had no influence on what happened to us before this season, Stubbs' reaction is perfectly understandable. Anyone with eyes and any sense could see what we were trying (and largely succeeded) to do today, and for a long time now.
I wouldn't fault a single thing about our performance today, we created a hatful of chances through both patient play and quick, incisive breaks, hit the post, hit the bar and the Raith keeper had several very good saves. We never looked in any danger throughout the 90 minutes.
It was one of those days. Regardless of the huge disappointment at the draw, there's no reason for anyone to boo us today.Last edited by Stevie Reid; 01-02-2015 at 12:26 AM.

IMO Stubbs reaction in a way mirrors the booing at the end. The fans booed out of frustration and AS had a go at us for the same reason, he rightly couldn't have a go at the players because for 85 minutes of that match they were excellent. How the hell we didn't win it is an utter mystery. I know you make your own luck, but this season for Hibs its like one of these boxing matches where the judges are all homers and you need a knockout just to get a draw.

How about this?
Yes, you are absolutely entitled to boo the team.
You pay your money and you are free to do what you want.
But, without wanting to patronise anyone, might it be worth trying to invest your energy in something more positive?
Worth a shot, surely.

There have been issues with folk behind the dugout for a while now. They got to fenlon big time and we all know what happened with malpas. It's a few folk who like making themselves heard in the home dugout.
That said it takes the p*** slagging off some supporters but ignoring most of us who follow the team through thick and thin. It's like the media focusing on HoH. So how about stop commenting on the noisy few and give some credit to the loyal majority (who sang stubbs name for half the game.)

Get the Neanderthals to ****. But stubbs needs to see where people are coming from. Yes, no reason to boo. But surely he can understand the frustration? The only way to vent that frustration is to boo. I don't agree with it and I certainly didn't do it. But ffs that fat **** scored with their only shot of the game to equalise in the last minute. Of course emotions are running high.

I like stubbs. In fact he's the best manager we've had in a long time. But today he made mistakes. The biggest of which was bringing handling on instead of Stanton.

Supporters turn up despite ticket prices and the opposition. Focus on negatives if you like but it's really not going to help.

sorry but people that booed go **** yourselves. I would love to hear what the aim of booing the team off the park is and how it helps the side progress? I'm sure they were aware themselves it was a disappointing result

I love these threads. Every time we have a bad result people cant wait to come on here and have a go at a small number of fans. Mostly its people who sit on their hands and contribute nothing towards the atmosphere at games that moan the loudest.

Can anyone point me to a time in our history when a home draw against Raith Rovers would not have resulted in Booing at Easter road.

Sorry, dont agree. Football fans are the most fickle in sport. If we went on a run of 10 wins on the bounce and lost the next game at home the players would get booed off. Look at the yams last week? Unbeaten in the league up till the middle of January and they boo them off!! Absolutely pathetic..... Stubbs is quite right to be pissed off. Booing your own players is the most pointless thing ever..

I'm not going to get into the actual subject being discussed as I've been saying the same thing for months as Stubbsy but he looks really pissed off in that video.
He's been one of our most honest and up front managers for a while.

The more I think about it the more I think Stubbs has played an absolute blinder here.
First off I'm not defending the booing although I understand the frustration. But is that the 6th or 7th time we have snatched a draw from the jaws of victory or defeat from a draw late on? Alloa away, Falkirk at home twice, Hearts at home, Raith at home twice......
There's a bit of a pattern there of being unable to see a game out yet by bringing up the reaction at the end Stubbs now has a fair bit of attention being paid to the crowd as opposed to a consistent on field issue, it's only a couple of weeks since we threw away a 2 goal lead at home. Stubbs made a big deal about us being the fittest team in the league at the AGM so surely the last 20 minutes is when that shpuld be shining through not when we should be throwing away precious points on a regular basis? It's the same thing happening consistently as well; long, scrappy spells in the 2nd half where we fail to kill a game and end up sitting deeper and deeper trying to see it out.
Maybe some fans do need to take a look at themselves but maybe Stubbs would be best off concentrating on addressing and acknowledging a pretty obvious issue rather than having a wee pop.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

This has become a very bad habit from the fittest team in the league.

If anyone thinks fans don't make a difference then look at Palace, Stoke and the like. Poor teams that get results and always mention the fans.
Yes, Hibs should definitely have closed the game out and won convincingly yesterday, but to say the fans have no effect is naive imho

Hibs on the park still have a lot to do to get many fans onside after the debacle of the last few seasons. There is a brittleness among the support amplified by Hertz steamrollering teams every week. That's why some fans booed yesterday. For the record I didn't.
