    This will be a poisonous atmostphere. Ibrox is a vile, very hostile ground at the best of times but they are baying for blood after last May and just to add even more fuel to the fire, our manager is now Neil Lennon.

    I'm looking forward to the hundreds of arrests and media outrage following the inevitable barrage of abuse aimed at Neil Lennon.

    Think the original tune is called 'Sing Hosanna'

    The Sevconians don't like it up 'em!

    Yup, numerous reports of missiles being thrown. Was that the game our players were having stuff chucked at them when taking corners?
    I was at the previous 2-0 game . Coins were raining down all game . Horrible, horrible lot .
    Marathon bet should supply all attending green hard hats with their logo and the 3-2 cup final score .

    I don't think its too bad at Ibrox these days compared to the past. The atmosphere is horrendous, but the level of danger is not as bad as a lot on here seem to think. I also think that the Hibs fans that do go will be up for it anyway, so it will be mostly young men and slightly older guys. With us winning the huns will mostly gone by the time we get out. Coins, pies and bovril is the main issue.

    If we lose, we lose (which we won't). There the ones getting all hyped up about next season, all the pressures on them

    Hopefully this gets moved for the tv.

    BT still showing games on a Friday night? 😈

    They have nearly signed a complete new team Traditionally they don't start well in the League So if we get in the players we want particularly up front and our team gets all our pre season games and league cup section under their belt then we should be looking for dome sort of result
    But how they gell under new Manager will be a factor and how we handle hostile reception away from home will be a test for our new players
    But it will be indicator of our aspiration to be in top four

    It's the chorus to the hymn "Give Me Joy In My Heart (Sing Hosanna)"

    Amazing how many football chants are based on hymns.

    This particular one is a belter and if words could be found for the verse then it would be awesome. First stab:

    Give me joy in my heart, super Hi-bees
    Give me joy in my heart Stokesie.
    Give me joy in my heart from a corner
    Hendo sticks it on the head of Gray

    (all together now)

    You surrendered,
    You surrendered,
    You surrendered.
    To the Hibs in May!!

    There's only one thing better than a Hibs calendar and that's two Hibs calendars

    The very sight of us in away end is enough for them. We should just stand and do the conga for 45 a break then 45 more.

    Maybe I'm making this up but I thought Huntic had an agreement that the only home games shown from Greyskull and Darkheid were the games between them because they lose too much income when matches are moved.
    Look at the televised fixtures and they are invariably Rangers and Celtic away matches. There a limit on how many matches can be televised at each stadium. Most of the Ibrox/Parkhead matches are taken up by OF derbies. Rigged to minimise disruption and maximise income for the uglies.

    Obviously it was different when Hibs and Rangers were in the Championship.

    Unfortunately not much chance of this, once again televised games are set out for minimum disruption to both Glasgow sides, making sure their support isn't affected with the game being on tv, but basically for the rest of us, who cares. The only home games televised by them is when they play each other.
    They may do this down South to some extent, but at least they are well compensated to the tune of millions,but hey, this is why we're the laughing stock of the football world, because our folk in charge totally agree with what goes on.
    What gets me is why all other clubs accept this present situation, accepting the scraps after the so called big two have had their fill.
    Either tell the TV companies to beat it unless the money is significantly increased and that it is distributed equally between all sides no matter what games are shown on TV, or get shot of the two of them, put them in their own league.

    I'd doubt the ticketmaster site ever crashes but a sharp spike in demand will create a queue. The site is set up for a number of sessions(thousands) and if there's already demand on the site - which on TM is most of the time - then sessions look like they've not connected. They have usually but you might have a long wait. It took my session 15 minutes till I got a screen up I could interact with for the Hearts game. Too late by then of course.

    As for Der Hun I think the club should simply call it out before the game in a press conference challenging Rangers to ensure the safety of the travelling fans in and outside the ground. The club will use fans evidence of mistreatment by stewards or the polis and anything they get from media outlets. What can we do? Ban their away fans from our ground. At the very least this will draw attention from some news broadcasters who may even put themselves in our bit. I'll wind up the no surrender brigade having to behave but they've been getting away with that pash for years and it needs to stop.
    In a different scenario, the Edinburgh Book Festival tickets went on sale, online at 08:30 last Tuesday. I logged on just after 08:30 and at the top of the page it told me I was number 3246 in the queue. It steadily counted down every 10 minutes or so until I was front of the queue at 11:00 and able to choose my tickets and order them without a hitch, being patient and not panicking works on some systems. Maybe if the Ticket sites all had a queue countdown like that there would be less angst.
    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    The clubs had the chance to change but obviously didnt want to, think Aberdeen voted to protect the 11v1 voting.
