Yeah, Glasgow and Renfrewshire are well known hotbeds of Hibernian Support.

Read that a little while ago, I see that the player assaults are now just "alleged assaults"

They would have to be since there hasn't been a trial.

The whole thing's damn simple: if they're blue, string 'em up. If they're green, pin a bloody medal on they're chest!

Every article in the Herald includes the words/phrases, "riot", "alleged assaults", and "goading the Rangers Supporters". At no point do they ever mention assaults by Rangers fans.


A suspicious person would think the Herald and Record articles were written by the Rangers PR Department.

Traynor worked for them both.

Those papers are rags. Nobody reads them, if they do it is as a comic. I am glad we invaded the pitch as it added to the occasion. Loved every second of the day.

From a selfish point of view we all did, but the players and staff would have enjoyed it a hell of a lot more had THEY been allowed on the pitch.

Stubbsy himself said it would have been better for them had the fans stayed in their seats.

It was what it was though, here's hoping we get another chance to enjoy a Scottish cup in the proper manner.

When we win the Scottish cup again there will be no pitch invasion and it will not compare at to 21 May.

That all depends on when we win it.

If it's another 114 year wait, there might well be a pitch invasion

And even if it's next year a number of the players that played on 21st may won't be at the club so will have missed out.

Sorry being selfish but it was the fans day as much as the players, 114year wait and a lot of fans got overly excited, i went on the pitch and behaved, id do it again

Sorry if I come across as a party pooper but by going on the pitch you didn't behave. Simple as that. I've been going home and away since 1979 and I was ecstatic. Not for one second did I even consider going on the pitch. It's just not acceptable imo. I can understand why people did it but it's just wrong.

Can confirm that I haven't been lifted. Must have been another in this staunch Hibby area!

[gav71]

Don't regret for a minute being on the pitch can't understand why the supposed attacked players weren't brought out to show off there injuries? Something that baffles me to this day maybe the hibs fans we're taunting the Huns support but they came on to fight but all they could do was grab young kids and hit people from behind before being put in there place and I enjoyed every second of the day and really what were you meant to do get squashed or go on the pitch?

If you think about it all police Scotland are trying to do now is cover up there own failings for not being prepared for a pitch invasion I had said as soon as we were through that if we won there would be a pitch invasion so if all the match commanders hadn't worked that out they shouldn't be in a job poor policing and stewarding was the problem on the day nothing else

How come the cops can kick in a 17 year old laddie fi mussy's door at 7 in the morning, but all the crooked mps and so called cellebs get invited to come to a police station

I get what you are saying, as for going on the pitch though, i personally shook two stewards hands and a policemans before entering the field, i got caught up in the moment I suppose.
I think people will be very for and against so I dont think we can agree, however I felt most conducted themselves very well.
If you look at Man City winning the league in the 95th minute the media lapped it up, pitch invasion is pure passion etc etc, I think the media has given people a tainted view on what was a very civilised occasion for myself and I hadnt even heard of trouble until I was on the bus home.
Different strokes for different folks I guess

Fans taunt the opposition fans at every game I've been to. Usually with he old "You're not singing anymore" ... and other dittys and it's never an excuse for violence - just part of the game.

If there hadn't been the massive over reaction from the suits at Sevco then I doubt there would have been more then a couple of arrests. I've seen worse violence at a wedding. So well done Sevco - people are getting lifted to placate the media hysteria that you set off .

Like I said all along. The most triumphalist and provocative support not being able to handle it when the shoe is on the other foot.

It was more the duration and intensity that hurt the poor wee lambs. They were "relentlessly goaded". Didn't you read Jim Traynor's match report??

Apparently people were even calling them huns, which is a real shame because the name seems to upset them. It's really not good enough.

[RoscoHibby]

Does anyone actually know what the "score" is in terns of arrests?
Like a lot of folk on here, I didn't know there was any bother until the Sunday. And I did go on the pitch (altho after seeing the footage, must've been one the 1st to actually leave it..)

Do you sit in the west stand? You come across quite boring.
