Stokes, Swanson & Boyle

**Delboy4** · 12-01-2018 03:13 PM

Just heard...

Now this is the rumour so don’t shoot the messenger!

Stokes, Swanson & Boyle missed the curfew time whilst allowed to
chill out and have a beer.

That is why they weren’t in the squad today. Now if this is true, I’m annoyed that...
1. They take advantage of being allowed to have a couple of beers
2. That it’s a training camp, not a holiday camp!
3. We have a massive game coming up so they should be professional like most big clubs

Now, as I said, it’s a rumour but if this is true, a massive fine should be given to each player. And god forbid , if it’s Mr Stokes who is leading the horses to drink - get rid because he did this years back with other players.

Hopefully this is not true...

Someone posted something similar on another Hibs website
Really poor show if true

***SRHibs*** · 12-01-2018 03:16 PM

Maybe they were just at a Celtic function!

**Delboy4** · 12-01-2018 03:17 PM

I heard from a good source. I honestly hope it’s not true as we don’t need this right now!

***Allant1981*** · 12-01-2018 03:17 PM

was it not said in jest on the match thread today? looks like its been taken as gospel

**Springbank** · 12-01-2018 03:18 PM

Usually I'd be bothered, if this was true.

But do you know what?

Beat Hearts on the 21st and i couldnt care less about this. And i hope all 3 score :)

Mon the Hibs!

And if they lose ?

IF (and it's a big IF because at the moment its all just rumours we are hearing) this is true then I fully expect that Lennon will be coming down hard on them. As a poster has already rightly stated, it's a training camp they are at not a holiday. If they have been granted a bit of lee way and been told they can have a couple of beers in their chill time and it's been abused then that's not on. Disrespect to the manager and the club.

Hopefully though this is untrue and it they were simply being rested due to minor knocks.

**canuckhibee** · 15-01-2018 06:42 PM

Disappointing, when considering how the club have stood by Swanson and Boyle for reasons well documented. Their week in Dubai the previous week was surely their downtime to have a few beers. Swanson needs to get a grip soon.

Also, I don’t know which night it was but could it have been when the gaffer was at that function and they’ve thought “whilst the cats away, the mice will play!” ???

Would be surprised if it was last night with a game today.

Now you're making stuff up. No need.

Not making anything up, just passing on from a source.

Here’s me thinking it was the Hibs fans forum too !

If NL was the only coach there your post might have made a modicum of sense.

It's also a myth that mice think that way.

That's true, we had mice a few years ago and they didn't appear to give a stuff that the cat was around

**Dashing Bob S** · 12-01-2018 03:58 PM

Couldn't give a monkeys. Do the chaps good to let off a little steam. In the old George Street days it wouldn't have been just a few beers, there would have been ****ging, cocaine shenanigans and the obligatory assault on a loud-mouthed Jambo bouncer. Sadly the way the game has become so sanitized, it's now left to us, the fans, to fly that flag.

Why would a Hibs fan post this Quote " It could have been " Quotes like this can only cause harm .As iv'be said before if you don't know for sure don't post

**Delboy4** · 12-01-2018 03:21 PM

Yeah, 0-3 and all score

That would do for me 😂💚🇳🇬

***Frazerbob*** · 12-01-2018 03:22 PM

Missed it by how long? 5 minutes or 5 hours are very different.

**Delboy4** · 12-01-2018 03:23 PM

Knowing Stokesy, probably the latter! 😬

***Mikey*** · 12-01-2018 03:24 PM

New boy Jamie Maclaren, Anthony Stokes and Martin Boyle all sat out the friendly clash with minor knocks.

Well that report kills the curfew story, hopefully, but bad news for Gray, sounds similar to Farad's injury and I don't think he was ever as effective when he returned to fitness.

It's a story that's surfaced since today's team was announced. No-one was telling us about it earlier in the day.

I'd be really surprised if it isn't made up.

Going by the fact your original post stated it was a rumour but then wanted Stokes out “if it’s him that’s led them astray” based purely on a hypothetical situation, and then followed-up by this.. can we assume that you don’t like Anthony Stokes?
