    Half time boos

    Why? Please explain, cos I thought that was ridiculous!
    The team put in a lot of effort, definitely should have been leading.
    Ok, not saying we were great, but why the **** do fans think that will help us! Take a look at yourselves, FFS
    We obviously all love our club, so give credit when credit is due!
    There have been loads of occasions this season when booing has been justified cos it's been woeful at times, but that was a shift today!
    Cmon the cabbage!

    Well done to the fans who got behind the team!!

    Tbh I thought the boos were very quickly drowned out by applause and support.

    Agree I think the fans did really well to applaud at half time I thought it showed people knew what was at stake
    "At the end of the day, we all aspire to bigger things in our lives but one thing I can truly say from my heart is if I never kick a ball for one of these bigger clubs I would be delighted to stay with Hibs for the rest of my career. That's how highly I regard this club." Ivan Sproule

    For my money....

    The half time boys were directed at

    1) The Patrick players who started time wasting from about 10 mins in

    And

    2) The ref and assistants who did nothing about said time wasting and were totally losing control of the game.

    Not directed at the hibs team or effort in my book

    People on the east booing when Collins came on as well. Dearly me. Should never boo our own player.

    Thunderous applause from where I was in the East at halftime despite the score. Fans were great today. There's always the odd idiot but we all pulled together today.

    Probably correct on both counts...Another useless tosser of a ref.

    I agree, the boos were drowned out by applause!
    If the boos were for the ref or the time wasting, then I take it back!
    I just thought the boos were immediately on the whistle therefore directed at the players! Normally boos for the ref are held back until they are about to go up the tunnel!

    Anyway, this is a hell of a fight we are in and just want the fans to do our bit!

    FWIW, we will be in the Premiership next season! That was a precious point!
    Lets get through this season and onwards and upwards!

    Thought the vast majority of the support were tremendous today. Can't recall the last time we went in trailing at half time and the support actually gave the team a standing ovation. Hopefully the boys will win on Tuesday and that will be the end to this nonsense but regardless lets have more of the same for the Killie match and finish the season of with a degree of positivity.

    Some boos but I suspect they are the usual suspects and were quickly drowned out by the supporters. I thought the team were well supported by fans who have had precious little to applaud for a long time.

    From where I was there was an initial chorus of boos quickly drowned out by a very noisy applause. I think/hope that the initial boos were frustration aimed at the time-wasting partick players and the terrible refereeing. The boos returned again for the ref going in.

    I am happy to state that my boos were directly aimed at the Hibs players. They are embarrassing. The fact that my 8 year old son has a better first touch than every single one of them is ridiculous. Amateur doesn't start to describe them. What surprised me was the number of fans clapping at FT.... Very easily pleased...

    Definition of a supporter:

    A person or group that sides with, backs up, assists, or approves of a person, cause, etc., especially in a public arena.

    So you're not supporting when you're booing, you're doing the opposite and basically doing the Jambo's job for them, so in a roundabout way.....LTYF's

    You're right amateur doesn't describe them, they get paid.

    How can you not be pleased with a late and more than deserved equaliser when we were a man down and when every single goal and point could be crucial? I was absolutely delighted and I was applauding because I was entertained.

    take a look at yourself. Your eight year old has a better touch than any of the Hibs players?. I smell a YAM. No 33 bus will take you to Gorgie,and pop into Specsavers on the way there.

    The players showed some epic fight in that game, I'm not saying all is rosy and any of us are happy with recent performances, but if you genuinely thought that we were hopeless today then I must have been watching a different game. They got a goal after a bit of a comedy of errors from us, granted, but we should've been about 3 or 4-1 up at half time but for superb goalkeeping and the frame of the goal.

    Bang on. I think that's one of the most entertaining games at ER this season (02/01 wins the title, natch!). I reckon any neutral that was there would have fair enjoyed it, but I was too busy biting my nails to have that experience!

    I never heard booing until the ref and his team approached the tunnel.

    Have I boo,d yes but the last two weeks have been better, I thought the fans where good today apart from MM and the fan :)

    Time-wasting has been horrific all season - can't remember the last time someone got booked for it at ER... This trend needs to be stamped out of football - some if it, especially by goalkeepers is just not on (we are paying to watch a guy slowly walk to pick up a ball, perhaps dropping it once in "mistake" and then walking slowly, placing the ball down slowly, and then doing hand signals to teammates, then to slowly walk back, hit his boots off the post, doing more hand signals, followed by a few seconds looking around, followed by the kick - step forward MacDonald and Langfield (best in the business)).

    The useless ref almost caused a riot with his wrong decision when Watmore got taken out and nothing was given (first time I think I've ever seen a 4th official actually talk to ref and say "that was garbage, it's a freekick"). So glad to see everyone in the stands going mental, everyone on the bench going mental and for once something went for us.

    It's exactly how Butcher says in his interview, some part of him thought our goal was going to be disallowed. People can slate him for his management but we're having a serious bout of bad "luck". How many times did we hit the post and the rebound landed at a Partick player?

    I suggest a change of username. You boo'd the layers at half time? Seriously?

    I confess to booing at half-time, which is rarity for me. I wasn't booing the effort or performance (which has picked up over the last two games) but venting frustration that we were staring another defeat in the face. Once I realised it was an ineffectual gesture, I stopped, as did many around me, who seemed of the same mindset.

    Oh dear. I applauded at the end. We dominated the game. Down to 10 men and got a valuable point. Our destiny remains in our hands. Unlike the Gorgie tramps who are down. I am very pleased that Hertz are down. Just in case you missed that embarrassment is stealing from local businesses, charities and the Earl Haig Fund.
