    2nd game - Rangers Away

    Just wanted to talk about this one. Pretty sure I won't be the only one who's been thinking about this, but a short while after THAT glorious day I began thinking about what it will be like when we next faced Rangers.

    Well, we now know when that'll be. The way the media painted us Hibs fans after May 2016 was nothing short of a disgrace and very much fueled Rangers hatred toward us. 'attacked the staff' 'attacked the players' 'goaded Rangers fans' the headlines some days were absolutely incredible! I know for a fact (because I know a few Rangers fans who are 'friends' that have been thinking this way) that they have had revenge set in their hearts right from 4.50pm on 21/5/16. On the pitch and sadly off it too.

    The media have then turned their hurt up a good few notches by painting the majority of our fans as wild thugs.

    This game won't be for the faint heart. As a father, there is no way in hell I'd even be contemplating taking my daughter to this game. I'd urge caution to anyone who is attending this particular one to be safe and smart. For those of us that have been through at Ibrox we know what those animals are like and how the police love to turn a blind eye to it.

    It has the added ingredient of being their 1st home game and our 1st away game, which generally adds an edge to fans for these occasions anyway.

    What's everyone's thoughts here? Surely I'm no alone in thinking this way?

    ........I can only imagine as well what they'll be like after we do our usual 0-3 over them!

    Away tickets issued only as part of an official transfer is my guess. Already happens in England and they will be wanting an excuse to do so here.

    Some folk need to get a grip .. yes the atmosphere will be hostile , but im sure if 8k Celtic fans can be policed for old firm games , then it wont be too difficult policing 900 Hibs fans..

    Yep, forgot to include that in my post. The Lennon factor, ripping the cup from them (I just love continuously saying it!! ) Celtic player in Ambrose, Whittaker (hopefully) who walked out on them when they got demoted. Boy, it's no wonder they hate us!

    That being said, it leaves no excuses for the authorities not to have a proper presence in this game and make sure everything is under control. It's no doubt going to draw out a few of the nutters in our support...which sadly might not be a bad thing in this particular game? Not advocating violence there..

    Getting to the game and after would have me more concerned than the game itself.

    But **** it bring them on

  13. #12
    The media will hype it up in the same way they do with OF games and then act outraged when there is bother. Neil Lennon being in the dug out just adds fuel to the fire.

    My girlfriend is due a baby 9 days after the game so I think I'll be giving it a miss rather than risk getting on the wrong end of some brain dead bigots fist or huckled by an over zealous policeman on edge.

    It's no the Hibs fans the polis will need to police. I think the danger will be the stuff that'll get lobbed intae the Hibs fans that'll be the problem, with the weegies finest ignoring it in the most part.


    Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

    A section of our support will be buzzing for this no doubt.

    A ground where we get spat on, piss thrown over us, coins thrown or anything they can get there hands on for that matter.

    And now we've got the added element of NL as our gaffer and the aftermath of 21/05/2016.

    A boycott would be fun but it'll never happen. I won't be there though. No thank you

    I can't wait for this one.

    A nice wee chant to sing to the Orks fans

    Have you been to Ibrox before? After we're locked in there are still thousands of them outside when we leave. It's not like the police line up side by side guiding people to their buses & cars, you're right in amongst them. I've saw full on knock-out punches thrown and the police quickly looking to the side and grinning. It's a horrible horrible place.

    I'm back from Wellington NZ, and I'll be able to catch this game, what's the chances of getting a ticket..? Usually only a 1000 or so?

    you just know that's going to be one of the prominent chants. Their reactions will be priceless

    This will be a highly charged game and the atmosphere will be pure poison. If we were to win this I think they'd crack and actually try kill us.

    It doesn't even matter if we win this one although i want to.... what does matter is that we rub their noses in 21-5-16 for the entire match

    Bring on the exuberance!!

    Haven't been anywhere near the place since the 70's and won't be starting now.

    The thought of giving them money gives me the dry boak.

    I'll happily take a little more of this after Ambrose bullets in a header and commences the back-flips...
