    That name is going to kill the show Hibs wise tbh. That needs a re-think.

    If you have a link at some point I'll have a listen mate but I'll be honest it will probably put people off unfortunately.

    You mention that the producer came up with the name - he should admit it was wrong and change it.

    I am sure it was done with the best intentions, but it was a schoolboy error - no different if he called the show "The Bears Den" and you were punting it on a celtic fans site

    Silly choice of name. It will certainly influence media-savvy Hibbys, whether that’s petty or not.

    Wouldn't worry too much about the name, as the OP said, it's about all things football so not a Hibs radio spot. Good luck to them, just hope they give their AFC mate it tight :)

    Any name that has instant connotations with a specific team will alienate potential listeners. Probably best to change the name before it gets going!

    So the two Hibs fans said nothing ?

    Or is the Producer just a ......?

    Lesson 1 ,do nothing to alienate your potential audience and that would include if they had used a title referencing anything Hibs.

    Change title.

    Apart from the fact that kickback is the name of an unofficial Hearts fans forum what does it have to do with hearts?

    If that's going to put a Hibs fan off from listening then some folk need to get a grip.

    It's the most basic part of being a supporter - tribalism. If you think it's not going to put some folk off, you're being naive.

    I know it’s kinda petty but when i hear the word kickback i associate it with Hearts. As I’ve heard about it hear I’ll give it a listen, if i hadn’t I give it a wide berth.

    Lots of talk of it being a poor choice of name. How about we think of a few neutral but catchy names the boys might consider as an alternative? Something not already in use elsewhere 🤔

    Talking Balls 🤨
    Penalty Shootout 😖

    Okay maybe not but c’mon Hibs.net we can be more positive for the boys
