Hearts fans and smoke bombs?

[Diclonius]

What was the point of them throwing two of these on the pitch before kick off and subsequently delaying the game?

Surely the whole point (if any, there's a good reason these are banned) is to throw them on when you score, thereby delaying the restart and giving the opposing team longer to wait?

Maybe they just weren't very optimistic this evening.

[Jack Hackett]

They're just very very thick

Erses. Simple as 👍

Nutshell. One could scent their desperation and fear from the hospitality seats in the West.

[Lancs Harp]

To be fair they were distress flares. The knew what was coming.

[Monts]

They knew they wouldn't get to use them during the game. They were just trying to delay the inevitable.

[squire]

Blew their beans early

[monktonharp]

I thought they had 4 in total? original white one on the pitch and almost immediately a maroon sheitey one in amongst themselves then a bloody orange one, which started drifting in the air to amongst the Hibs fans near the touchline. then, there was another maroon sheitey one which rolled onto the pitch but seemed to die out, a bit like their team as the game progressed. there also was a green one, presumably from our end as it was just after we scored.

[Hibby70]

I thought it was a very good display. How they managed to get flares the exact colour of the rust on their main stand god only knows.

[monktonharp]

we got beat 4-1 on flares.

[SirDavidsNapper]

Be better off just smoke bombing themselves. Saves the torture of seeing derby pumpings

[O'Rourke3]

Not a fan but given they usually get thrown to celebrate,just before kick off and the score is still 0-0 seems about right for their fans surely?

[Carheenlea]

Don’t mind them, adds a bit of colour and atmosphere to the occasion. The fact they were ignited pre match told it’s own story though - they knew they were beat from the minute they woke up this morning. An act of defiance/bravado in the face of what they knew what was coming.

[Wee Effen Bee]

Is it true one particularly dense Jambo threw a pair of 70s disco troosers on to the pitch? 🤫
My coat, get I will.

Section Nazi seemed to be congregated near the east and seemed proud of themselves at half time. Not sure what happened but none were left at full time.

[Swedish hibee]

Why orange?

[hibeejoy]

********s.Even in that they're *****.

Why orange?

The strange wee club were probably trying to impress their Catholic hating West coast brothers.

Tragic

They were simply celebrating the 0-0 scoreline before the game kicked off. They were utterly jubilant about it at half time too.

No doubt a few were kept spare to celebrate having a shot on target, but unfortunately for them it never came. Surprised they didn't invade the pitch after winning a corner in the second half.

[SouthMoroccoStu]

They made a reasonable amount of noise in small patches of the first half but it was just that - noise

No real songs or chants that I could make out. Some trying to get the Lafferty 7ft plays the flute tune going (they really are diet Huns)

To top off their auspicious first 45 contribution, singing “can you hear the Hibees sing” at the end of the first half was just bizarre

A bit premature for celebrating a 0-0 draw there lads

[Johnny Clash]

Setting off smoke bombs at the start of the game didn’t do their big cousins much good at Hampden although it must have been surreal for hundreds of them behind the smoke to hear the Hibs roar!

Hertz now have a sizeable section trying to ramp up the sectarian nature of their club . Songs about flutes, ‘The Billy Boys’ variation, Ulster flags and the orange smoke bomb just sadly mimicking the Paris Buns. The fights in their end might have been the result of disagreements about all that crap ... or maybe going radge at each other after so many legged it after our second?goal?

[IGRIGI]

Flares? SOS signals in reality.

[snooky]

Hearts playing with flare? Surely not.

It was Levein's game plan to play for time before the game started. He's a master tactician don't you know.

👍 That made me laugh

[Geo_1875]

Think they were trying to recreate the WW1 atmosphere that brought about their finest hour.

Reminded me very much of the final when the mutants launched smoke bombs onto the field and first thing I thought was "hope we get the same result" the clowns couldn't even get the first one out of the stand, the 2nd was launched from about 10 rows up on the bottom of the south, was hoping the fud would have been spied by the cops

They were trying to smoke them, realised they got very hot so throw them away, ****ing fuds that they are.
