    john Robertson deluded...

    He was just on Telly talking about saturdays Scottish cup semi and said not only once but twice that they are the third biggest club in scotland. Wonder where he got that bollocks from. Maybe still hurting from the beating his old team took the other day and it was all he could do to console himself.

    Yes he definitely made a point of getting that in about Hearts.

    Are you asking me? and if so do you agree with him? I was not aware hearts were I have to say depending on what makes it the biggest, not money anyway and our attendances have been as good as theirs of late. As for Money Aberdeen would be third.

    Deludded? If that’s a mixture of deluded and befuddled then you’re spot on.

    Just go and sit in the corner and eat something John.

    Lads no need to go all De Niro it’s only a commercial!

    I’m guessing Robbo panders and applies pressure at the same time.
    We all know and Robbo esp that the yams are at their weakest when their arrogance comes to the fore.

    Let’s see what develops (can we use that term with the kids these days?)

    Probably trying to lull Potter into a false sense of security before knocking Hearts out of the Scottish Cup on Saturday

    Id say it’s The Rangers . Aberdeen are probably 2nd as they have finished in that position for the last few seasons. Hearts are dug💩
    Christ ,this is the first time in six years that they have played at Hampden .
    Inverness have played three times in four seasons.
    Were above Hearts in every way . They know it but won’t admit it .

    It depends on what you mean by “big”.

    It’s such a fuzzy term.

    I find the whole idea of desperately wanting to be seen as the “3rd biggest” in anything bizarre, pathetic and sad.

    Stadium capacity >20k = big club.
    Stadium capacity <20k = wee club.



    Lying that your stadium capacity >20k = desperate wannabe big club.

    Sevco can fill a ground with Sevconians and are spending more than most but they've hardly won a thing since they started so I'd say they're probably 5th.

    Is he wrong? Hearts have a strong case for 3rd biggest. However, it's not exactly something to shout about.

    If it’s money, sheep are 3rd

    If it’s STs, yams are 3rd

    If it’s trophies since 2007, it’s us

    Outside the Old Firm you have similarly sized clubs in Aberdeen, Hearts and ourselves. Only one of them ever makes a point of claiming to be the third “biggest”.
    If you have to keep reminding everyone that you are a big club, you’re probably not really that big a club.

    Correct. It’s total insecurity.

    It doesn't really matter who are the biggest or third biggest club we all know who the BEST club is... let them talk the usual nonsense.

    Being honest Hearts could make a decent case to be the '3rd biggest' club. Fairly big fanbase, 16 domestic trophies compared to 17 for Aberdeen and 10 for us, same number of league titles as us and Aberdeen and more Scottish Cups than both of us. Aberdeens European trophy and good recent league record probably gives them the edge though. It's not a title worth arguing about really. There's no prizes for a made up honour of 3rd biggest.

    If you remove Queens Park, Rangers and Celtic from the equation then ourselves, Hearts and Aberdeen are in a little league of our own well clear of a host of teams on 4 and 5 major trophies. It'a decent target for us to close the trophy gap on Hearts and Aberdeen in the next few years. In the last decade we have 1 trophy each and Aberdeen and Hibs have both had the chance of a couple more.

    We have more ST holders than Hearts
