it happened 30 years ago and it didn't even involve us we are celebrating a Dundee win and Celtic winning the league get over it

Get over it ? I was at ER on that day and I neither celebrated the Soap Dodgers winning the league (in fact nothing was further from my mind) nor was I celebrating a Dundee win - I wasn't even celebrating Hearts 'losing' the league. It was just an absolutely effing hilarious moment in football (not just for Hibs fans I hasten to add) and one that still makes me chuckle when I ever look back and think about it. To me these moments make football what it is and quite simply I refuse to get over it - and by Sauzee there are precious few funny moments to enjoy when you follow the Cabbage !

So we shouldn't speak about Hibs doing well when we are?

Away you go eh, your stinking of Hearts patter. In fact I'm convinced you are a Jambo.

Can't take a bit of the harsh truth I see.....we shouldn't be talking about our bottle in the paper for the bottle to crash at the important stages.

Classic response...nothing to say back so accuse them of being a jumbo

I've plenty to say back, It's not the harsh truth. We are in a cup final, a quarter final, and can still go up through the play offs.

The league is over yes, but it's far from bottling it ffs.

I wasn't even born when it happened the past is the past. It's now and the future that bothers me

Hibs were around long before you were born, and some of our club's greatest memories (Famous Five, Tornadoes, 7-0) are from that era. So I have no problem remembering our past as well as worrying about our future.

Just a couple of days ago somebody posted a reminder that they did the same thing in 1965, losing the league on the final day after a 0-2 defeat.

Yeah. That was myself.

The laugh of it was in '65, 0-2 was the only result that stopped them winning the league that year. Any other defeat would have been OK ironically. Hardly the best way to win a league - getting beat that is.

Fair to say, the 2-0 defeat result has had a pretty big impact on our poor Jambo chums over the years. Shame.

Did they not lose to 9 men Caley ? Bottled the League Cup V Saint Mirren ?

Every team in Scotland has allegedly 'bottled it' - it's a media thing with Hibs, much like our keeper woes seasons ago.

When the tattooed weirdo Ryan Stevenson was high fiving their fans before taking a corner with only a minute or so to go? No way could they have Jamboed it up from that position...

Well, I appear to have ruffled a few maroon feathers and got under the skin of the Hibs-hating hordes over on Kickback. They have responded to my Jamboing/jambottling it thread and dedicated a thread response and to date have spewed 3 pages of posts. The amount of comfort blankets they are throwing around each other is pitiful. Seems they don't like a taste of their own medicine. To be fair, one sensible and honest jambo actually admitted to still being hurt by Dens Park in 1986. Needless to say he was pounced on by a fellow jambo who accused him of being a Hibby. Oh the joy of watching them squirm.

It's absolutely superb viewing! Don't let them forget it, that was THEE all time bottling event. To not only lose the league after 37 undefeated games, to then get humped 3-0 off Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup final a week later! Scenes!!!

"Because we deserved it" that sense of entitlement again.

You have to be able to win it. Nae awards just for being the "famous" etc..

**Stokesy's on fire** · 03-03-2016 06:43 AM

To suggest that we should no longer point and laugh at our rivals for the most famous bottle job game of all time is insane.

There isn't a more well documented bottle job event in the Scottish game ever. Hearts have won the bottle job crown and they did it in style. well done to them on adding the bottle job title to their cabinet fair play to them.

Spot on. All this "hibsing" it chat is to take the focus off the ultimate bottle job.

Yes make you wonder if some masochists out there would prefer it if we were Butchered... Again... Folks might say "only Hibs" or "only on Hibs.net" Ive done it myself but In these tinternet charged days maybe things will never be as at first glance they appear.

Mark McGhee from mammory always seemed to be a thorn in Hearts' side either Aberdeen or Celtc

Scotland 16 months later after scoring only 12 goals to join Celtic in a £170,000 deal.^[2]^[3] McGhee won a further Scottish Premier Division title in 1986 as Celtic pipped Hearts on goal difference.^[1]

McAvennie arrived from West Ham in October his opportunities lessened in the first team. In April 1988 he came on as sub against Hearts in the Scottish Cup semi final with Celtic 0-1 down and almost single handedly changed the game, scoring the first from a near impossible position and creating the winner for Andy Walker.

***Bostonhibby*** · 03-03-2016 05:29 PM

I suppose the ultimate Jambo-ing it is the swallowing of all the guff from Romanov about Champions League wins, World Cup Stars, share issues and megasuperhotelstadiums but ultimately ending up as a busted flush that stole charity money and bumped many more innocent businesses whilst the man they hero worshipped fled the country with their cake baking money.

Once again they never quite achieved the prizes they thought were theirs.

Correct .... Never ever let those factors forget it

Eh? Get over the fact Hearts blew the league title with all of eight minutes of the season remaining? I don't think so; it was the finest exhibition of bottling it you could ever see, and was the SECOND time they threw away the title on the last day.

Pleasing

They will never get over it, so why should we?

what makes it even better they got humped by the sheep the next week sc final can still remember up the toon for months beforehand
all you ever heard was championes NEVER EVER HAVE I LAUGHED SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH

Was that the same season they were sponsored by none other than MITA ( mita won this mita won that )

could be wrong though
