Giving praise to an away team on a Fans Forum the day after the match is 'going soft'?

It was more a reference to the match itself and the applauding of the opposition.

I only remember the injured guy being applauded off the pitch - were there others?

I was impressed by their number seven, he had a good game. I thought they set the pace of the game and probably caught us by surprise a little.

Guy beside us was saying he was the son of ex Hibs player Gary Murray ??

Was it not the Mick Hucknall lookalike that was Gary's laddie

No 7 and No 10 were excellent but the bald guy no 9 never stopped running and causing our defence bother the whole game. It was around the 80th minute or so he was back in his own half breaking up a Hibs attack then seconds later trying to get on end of a cross in to our box.

Energy, endeavour, bravery and no little skill from the part timers of Arbroath, I was very impressed. As was Stubbs going by his post match interview. Hopefully got his eye on one or two.

No, it was the ginger guy up front who is Murray's boy

Not soft.

Just patronising.

There was about 5 minutes to go and we had a two goal lead. Big deal

Number 7 looked the part

I was impressed with him. Thought the big ginger felly out of the Full Monty did well too

That's a little bit harsh. Is it not ok to acknowledge someone has had a decent game unless they play for Hibs?

TBF you're not always allowed to do it if they play for Hibs.

Haha, that did cross my mind when I was typing it.

They passed & moved better than half the teams who have come to ER this season. I've got to admit I was a bit worried they might score a second, that would have put us in real trouble. They had a few decent players too, its not hard to see why they are top of their division.

Maroon top with white sleeves? If Wallet Mercer had won would that have been the new Yam top?

It frustrates me that the majority of the support booed our players during parts, but support the opposition? Aye, it's a big deal.

I didnt hear any booing yesterday other than at the woeful ref...in fact the fans in the main reacted well to Arbroath going ahead I thought

Good to see a team come to ER and actually try to win the game. Outwith Hearts and Rangers (no smirking at the back) I can't think of many teams who have set out to do that in the league this year.

Well, I'd rather they came to ER quaking in their boots and throwing in the towel half-way through the first half. Stuff this sportsmanship lark - make 'em feel threatened and unwelcome.

Indeed. Totally agree. Be nice to our own players and make the opposition just want to go home at half time.

Lower-league teams in the Cup kick us and try to put our guys in hospital. Giant-killers are always hackers and gougers. And if they beat us, THEY don't go all 'play up, play up and play the game' - they give it to us tight and gloat all the way home and then some.

Did Arbroath have another shot on target?

Simply not true.

***JoeT_WasTheBest*** · 09-02-2015 09:43 PM

Their number 7 is on loan to them from Dundee United I believe. Decent player.

I never heard any boos towards our players? The ref was getting it tight but when we went a goal down many around me started clapping and cheering Hibs on even more!

As for the Arbroath players I clapped the subs as I thought over all they played well and I appreciate teams from lower leagues having a go and making a game of it!

Good travelling support from them today. Better than most this season.

Poor home support.

2nd highest crowd in Scotland and only 2 thousand less than your local team got against the lesser greens in the last round.

He is on loan from Dundee.

**Nutmegged** · 10-02-2015 09:10 AM

Football fans are fickle, congratulating Arbroath for playing well in defeat, yet if they hung on to that 1-0 then this place would be in meltdown for blowing a great opportunity to get to another Cup Final.

the narrative would have been very very different if we didn't comeback and eventually coast by them
