[MGmick]

Hibs and Borussia Monchengladbach.
Missed the glory years of both.

Great picker, crap timing. :doh:

[blackpoolhibs]

Why would anyone support 2 sides? It hurts bad enough when Hibs get beat. :wink: Although saying that, i dont really mean that anymore. Maybe its age, but getting beat these days in fact does not hurt as much as it used to, anyone else feel the same?

[GraniteCityHibs]

I suffer from the same affliction! ...Could be worse chaps, Hearts and Portsmouth!? thank God for Jose Mourinho and Real Madrid!

Gladbach because when I lived there I had to get a footy fix somewhere. Plus the team at that time were similar to the Tornado's, scored plenty but were a bit untrustworthy at the back and green was a major part of the colour scheme so I could wear my Hibs scarf.

Now that I'm back home they are pretty much only a fond memory and it's just Hibs and barely that if I'm honest. I still care and Hibs doing something well gives me a lot of pride but, apart from the odd game and the occasional good player, we've been mainly rank since about 1975 so I no longer invest much emotion in how we perform.

[essexhibee]

Hibernian, West Ham (had a season ticket three years running), Southend Fc (season ticket for a season and local teams) .

All lost today. DIRE. UTTER DIRE.

I didnt get to see todays game due to work, im quite glad i didnt now. :grr::boo hoo:

Shaaaat upppp!!!

[Sauzee 62]

I feel your pain mate! Thankfully I've been living in Qatar for the past couple of months so I've missed it all and my newly adopted Qatari team Al Sadd are doing a damn sight better than both of them!

Mon the Wolves!!

I only support Hibs. One thing I don't get is people 'supporting' an English side who they never travel to watch, yet when talking about them say 'we.'

[Jones28]

I know how you feel :boo hoo::boo hoo:

[Purehibee_MYB]

Yeah don't think you can really emulate the same passion if you have never lived in that area really... I support Hibs and only Hibs... There are teams I like to do well such as Arsenal, but if Arsenal lose I am really not bothered in the way I am when Hibs lose... and if Arsenal win a trophy I will never celebrate like I did in 2007

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

I only support Hibs. One thing I don't get is people 'supporting' an English side who they never travel to watch, yet when talking about them say 'we.'How do you know that for a fact? I've probably been to more Hammers than Hibs games over the last 4 or 5 years as the sheer tediousness of the SPL just got too much to bare! Different grounds, pubs, banter has been quite refreshing.

[seanraff07]

What a glory hunter I am! NOT!

Hibs and Newcastle, there hasn't been one week this season when both of them have won, pretty dreadful!

[John_the_angus_hibby]

Me too. Family in Frinton and Clacton were split between the Hammers and Ipswich. Became a Hammer and I saw them quite a few times during 'Arry's era.

[El Gubbz]

What a glory hunter I am! NOT!

So am I, weird one considering west ham are a similar colour to them

[Banff]

Completley different! Claret and maroon are two VERY different colours. And I go a few times a season!!

[Dunbar Hibee]

Bang on, ****ing hate people who call West Ham colours 'maroon' !

I said similar :wink:

[ANDY McGEECHAN]

What a glory hunter I am! NOT!

Aye me too. First Scottish game Hibs 3-2 Huns 1968 I think.

First English game West Ham 4-1 Norwich, can't remember

the year, but I'm sure Pop Robson scored 3 for the 'ammers.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

I cannae tell you what my 1st Hibs game was, but, I remember my 1st Hammers game being a 6-0 win v Sunderland in the old div2. It was the day before the IRA bomb went off in a boozer next to Stringfellows, we were just round the corner at the time, v weird experience!

[NOLA]

Hibs, Marseille, Arsenal, in that order for me, was born and raised in the south of France, Marseille the local team, came here when 7, lived in Abbeyhill/ leith now for donkeys years, worked in London for a few years and used to go to highbury. only really get cheesed off when Hibs dont win though.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Heading to London for NY was hoping the derby would be moved to Jan 2nd so that I could go to UP for The Hammers v Wolves game. Quinns instead for some fine cuisine and a fine array of top continental beers!

[frazeHFC]

Hibs, Liverpool and Ross County.......enough said this season :boo hoo:

[Gmack7]

im a happy hammer tonight:greengrin

[Lang Toun Hibs]

Me too. Family in Frinton and Clacton were split between the Hammers and Ipswich. Became a Hammer and I saw them quite a few times during 'Arry's era.

Football supporters in Frinton?!:cool2: Surely not...

I've also got relations in and around Clacton and spent many a summer holiday with grandparents in Elmstead Market and Kirby Cross...it's a small world! Most of my relatives with an interest in football follow Ipswich so I've always kept an eye on them and Colchester.

[sundo1875]

good result last night hopefully now hibs can win:thumbsup:

[Banff]

i said similar :wink:

but they are not!!!

[heavy_g]

Hibs and Toronto Maple Leafs. We haven't won **** all since 1967!:grr:

[London Hibee]

I'll be amongst 3,000 other West Ham fans at the Emirates tomorrow, but will spend most of the game checking my phone for updates from Tannadice

I've lived in London now for 22 years (which is longer than I've lived in Scotland :boo hoo: ) and been a West Ham season ticket holder for the last 21 seasons and although I've followed them all over England and through many highs and lows (relegations, promotions, cup-finals, play-off finals etc) they still don't (and never will) mean as much to me as Hibs.

I can take West Ham defeats on the chin, but Hibs defeats hit me in the stomach.

I've realised that my West Ham games are just about the day out and that I only get anywhere near the same level of emotional involvement as with Hibs, when the Hammers are on the verge of winning something like the FA Cup against Liverpool in Cardiff, or on the brink of relegation and thus reducing the quality of my days out

GGTTH & KUMB

Good luck at the Emirates mate :aok:

You will need it :greengrin

[poolman]

My Hi-Bees and Fortuna Dusseldorf :greengrin

Have a mate in Dusseldorf and was there last year and took in a game so they're "ma 2nd team now :greengrin"

He's also a pal of the one and only Matty Jack, never met him that weekend tho :boo hoo:

Absolutely outstanding stadium FD have, best I have ever been in, also sitting in front row of upper tier drinking draft German beer the whole game and FD won 1-0 :thumbsup:

They're no doing to well this season tho :bitchy:

[FromTheCapital]

Hibs, 0.1% Celtic (Cause Scott Brown's my Cousin) and Chelsea !

[frazeHFC]

Still too much of a percentage, no matter the reason :grr:

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Never realised so many fellow Hibees were also Hammers!

[Danny_Hibee]

Never realised so many fellow Hibees were also Hammers!

Me neither....at least i now know I'm not suffering alone :greengrin

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Dinnae expect anything from an away game v Arsenal, its results like last Sat that cause the problems. Last away team to win at Highbury and first to win at The Emirates tho!

[sundo1875]

Bloody man united in the cup

[Dunbar Hibee]

Knowing West Ham it wouldn't suprise me if we did nick a result tho:greengrin Come on you Irons

[Wembley67]

Surprised the usual suspects haven't been along to shoot down anything not hibs related being posted :wink:

A few guys that I know started following West Ham years ago due to the football casual thing, wonder if there is a quite a few older hibbies that have done the same.

[London Hibee]

So just as Alex Song celebrated his 88th minute goal for Arsenal, I got a text from my uncle telling me United had scored at Tannadice :grr:
