Hearts fans cheering when Griffiths was injured

[dp00]

If I never already hated them , there behaviour when sparky was down injured has just made me hate them even more

On a plus point I thought it changed the game and made the players more determined to win after hearing there fans

[down-the-slope]

pretty shabby even against your great rivals....

But the enforced change actually worked as Sparky was fairly quiet again like in Perth and Ross's robustness gave the Hearts CH's something different to deal with

[TheEastTerrace]

I ended up on a 26 into town with loads of them. Cretins to a man, hoping that LG had broken his leg. Funny, Fatty Foulkes was on the bus and I couldn't resist asking how it felt to play a role in bringing agent Romanov in to destroy his club - GIRUY

[thebakerboy]

I agree with the bit about Sparky , thought it was disgusting and really showed how low they have gone. It's normally polite and sporting to applaud an injured player off who ever he plays for. But then again it is the Jambos we are talking about.

If it was skacel for the v us I would take no shame in cheering

[Devilstorment]

I think i missed it, but didnt one of the Yams go of injured. I dont remember us bouncing about like we had scored a goal when that happened


We had a thread on here a few weeks back about the definition of Hibs class. That is it. We werent bouncing about like barbarians hoping their boy's playing career was over

[Cocaine&Caviar]

[CropleyWasGod]

Aw dinnae kid yersel man ..hibs fans would do the exact same ..its tribal ..its in us all ..:agree:

Dunno about that. I had the same discussion with my boy on the way home.

When Goncalves was stretchered off in the 4-0 game, I clapped him as he passed in front of us. And I know I wasn't the only one. However, I don't remember anyone actually cheering; most folk did nothing.

What got me today was the EXTENT of the Hearts reaction. It seemed like everyone was at it.

Big difference, I reckon.

[Hiber-nation]

Aw dinnae kid yersel man ..hibs fans would do the exact same ..its tribal ..its in us all ..:agree:

Aye, could you imagine even 1 Hibs fan applauding Webster if he was taken off with a minor injury. Its a Derby and it was hardly life threatening.

[hibsbollah]

It was the noisiest they were all game. When it happened I asked myself would we do the same if their talismanic player went down, and I really don't think we would. Hence, Hibs Class:stirrer:

But they haven't got a talismanic player so then I realised it was a stupid question.

[stoneyburn hibs]

Dont know if anyone else noticed but it was the raking studs of McHattie on the back of his ankle that caused the injury, then when it was signalled that he had to go off , McHattie getting a wee well done handshake from Zaliukas. Shame they ended up losers.

[S4uzee]

Hope they all stayed to see him giving it big licks at the end!!!

[Alfred E Newman]

The great deluded ones thought Griffiths injury was their passport to the next round. How wrong they were. Caldwell gave us a bit more muscle up front.

[DarrenSQH]

Karma. Hope they enjoyed watching him dance on the park at the end!

I thought it was Barr? I will take back the abuse i gave him

[CropleyWasGod]

The way I saw it, it was neither. The defender challenged him, and he went over on his ankle.

[Wembley67]

Ach baws, we would do exactly the same, stop moaning and enjoy the night :greengrin:pfgwa

[fife hfc]

Bunch of ********s. On way up to the station tonight with my nine year old son, grown men were abusing us, I just smiled and told them how very intelligent (always had a big mouth:greengrin).

Also just looked on kickback and the muppets are talking about how some of their number destroyed seats and the toilets in the away end. Even though I hate the thought of they lot damaging Easter Road, this time if they have cost thousands of pounds worth of damage then it will hit their chances of survival. so lets hope the away end is wrecked:devil:

[lucky]

McHattie was high 5ed by the yam captain as Leigh was taken off. Total **** the lot of them.

If true, it just shows how stupid they are 'cos any repairs will have to be met out of their share of the gate money, numpties, real knuckle-draggers.

[Jones28]

It wasn't our equivalent of skacel though, it was LG who hasn't done anything to wind up hearts fans


Shows they're **** to a man imo

This!!

asked this a few times to jambos and still never had a proper answer.....why do they hate griffiths so much? the things i have seen written abou hime, greetin, ****, horrible human being, wouldnt pish on him if on fire etc etc.....as far as i know leigh has never wound them up or said anything so why the pure hatred?

also they way they celebrated his injury was embarassing......it wasnt even like a 'waaaaaaayyyy' cheers that you might expect they were all bouncing about like they had scored :faf: flumps!!

[Elephant Stone]

I don't get the seethe from their lot towards Leigh. Although I suppose having vastly inferior strikers to your rivals for a long time probably eats away at you.

[StevieT]

McHattie was high 5ed by the yam captain as Leigh was taken off. Total **** the lot of them.

Does anyone have a picture of this?

[Eyrie]

A clear demonstration by them of what "Hearts class" means.

[aljo7-0]

A clear demonstration by them of what "Hearts class" means.
A clear demonstration of an oxymoron as opposed to "Hearts fan" which is a clear demonstration of a poxy moron

[Sir David Gray]

Can't get too upset about this to be honest.

We would have done exactly the same thing if one of their players had been forced off with an injury.

Griffiths, whilst in a bit of pain, will be ok and it's not anything that's going to threaten his life or his career so I can't get too uptight about this. If it had been obvious that it was a serious injury, such as Fabrice Muamba for example, then that would have been entirely different but it wasn't and he'll be fine in a week or two.

We had the last laugh anyway so GIRUT. :thumbsup:

[Cauld Bovril]

They hate him because they`re scared of him:giruy::giruy:

I disagree, they all looked like they were celebrating. I've never seen that from any team in my life.

[Twa Cairpets]

Anyone at Airdrie for the play off second leg a few years back will remember the sympathy shown to Medals McKay when he exited stage left on stretcher.

He deserved it though

To be fair, a lot of them decried the stupidity and cost of the vandalism but I got the impression that they thought the bill wouldn't be paid ( as is their wont) till somebody reminded them that Hibs will deduct the bill at source before sending their cut of the gate money. I hope the damage was significant.

[english_hibee]

Invoice? Thought we only accepted cash rather than credit? Oh wait, my mistake, that's them :greengrin

Speak for yourself.

[Eyrie]

Pretty certain it was Mackay. I remember yelling at him to "Cheer up, it could be worse. You could still be playing for Hearts." Which makes as much sense now as it did at the time, but it's stuck in my memory.

So do i, the gold leaf bathrooms and platinum lined mirrors will need replacing. Also the steam rooms and jacuzzi's. Not to mention the thousands of diamond encrusted seats they damaged....wonder how much we will be deducting from their half :wink:

Now that is good.

[CraigHibee]

They are puddle drinkers, nothing more, nothing less ****my maroon wearing *****bags

[EH6 Hibby]

I thought it was pathetic the way they were celebrating. As for the people saying we'd do the same, I can honestly say I never have and never will take pleasure in someone getting injured, no matter who they play for.

[LancashireHibby]

I think we've probably all cheered when a player goes down, but to start celebrating when the stretcher bearers come on is seriously poor form.

[Jones28]

Disgraceful behaviour, even for them

[steakbake]

Classless. Edinburgh's shame. I've genuinely never seen anything like that in my life...

[hfc rd]

They acted as if they had just won the CL. Anyways we had the last laugh and it was great to see Leigh come out at FT and join in with the celebrations.

[God Petrie]

I've been to literally thousands of hibs games. Never have I seen the opposing fans cheer an injury which warranted a stretcher. ****

[Hibbyradge]

:top marks

[matty_f]

From their 'goals for' stats this season, it's not that surprising that they reacted the way they did - I mean, they have to cheer something.

They can't be that far away from forgetting what cheering a goal feels like.


As for cheering someone getting stretchers off, remember we're talking about a support who came to Easter Road with eye patches after Deano had his op.

Griffiths has more class in the swelling on his ankle than the Yams have collectively.

[--------]

Classless. Edinburgh's shame. I've genuinely never seen anything like that in my life...


I have. Septic supporters chanting "Yogi, Yogi ..." as Bobby Duncan was stretcherd off in the late 1960's for one example.

Hughes had stamped on the back of Duncan's leg and broken it - deliberately.

[The Green Goblin]

I disagree, they all looked like they were celebrating. I've never seen that from any team in my life.

My thoughts exactly.

I have never seen that sick reaction to a Scottish capped player being carried off before.
I myself would never display those actions in public- I may think it or do it in the privacy of my home watching it on telly but to jump up & down and scream for joy.. No.
The sooner this clubs ends. The better.

[marinello59]

They actually thought that marked the point when the game was handed to them. It just made it all the sweeter when the ball eventually hit the net. It must really, really hurt them to see us bounce back from May so quickly as they slowly sink to the level they deserve.

[The Sea-gull]

If LG played for them and this happened in a derby we would have reacted in the same way.

He is just one of these players that opposition fans love to hate. Coz he is cocky and quality.

[21.05.2016]

Sickening cheering and dancing as a player is being stretchered off but to be honest nothing surprises me with that horrible low life bunch of tramps.

Disagree that we would have done the same en masse.

Remember at the semi final v them when Goncalves got a serious looking injury. A few guys started chanting 'die, die' and cheering and they were very quickly shouted down and told to shut it in no uncertain terms by a far larger group of supporters.

You'll always get a few idiots but I honestly can't remember a whole stand celebrating a player being injured before. I also don't even get why they hate Griffiths so much? Yes, he's a Hibs fan but what's he ever done to them?

[Keith_M]

As others have said, we have a few idiots in our support that would probably behave the same way if the roles were reversed but the sheer number of arschlöcher* in their support is amazing.





* German swear words, it's the way forward ;-)

[Posh Swanny]

Much as I found it very distasteful, would the reaction from Hibees have been that different had a stretcher come on for Skacel against Dundee United the other week?

[Davy Mac]

Anybody who has played the game either Amateur or Professional generally don't wish a serious injury to any player.

So clearly a lot of them have never played the game before - says it all really.

[JollyGreenGiant]

I disagree, they all looked like they were celebrating. I've never seen that from any team in my life.


:agree:

I think they were celebrating because they saw Leigh getting stretchered off, thought that our only goal threat was gone and that they were going on to win the game.

Fools :na na:

I was genuinely aggrieved when I heard David Robertson broke his leg the other night, applauded him off. As I would with any player.

It's this weird emotion called "Compassion" that people of lower intelligence can't get. I understand insects may have this emotion as well.. Says a lot for THEM.

[Beefster]

McHattie was high 5ed by the yam captain as Leigh was taken off. Total **** the lot of them.

It was Barr and it was more an unintended stamp on his ankle/foot.


I thought it was pathetic the way they were celebrating. As for the people saying we'd do the same, I can honestly say I never have and never will take pleasure in someone getting injured, no matter who they play for.

You, and the majority of decent supporters, might not but that doesn't mean it wouldn't happen.

[Hongkong Phooey]

Not read the whole thread so apologies if already posted, but I remember being at Broomfield for the play off against Airdrie when Gary MacKay got stretchered off and taken round 2 sides of the ground crammed with Hibbies.

Don't remember a lot of charity towards him.

Special case maybe and I wasn't at the game yesterday so not sure how comparable the incidents are, but we all lose a bit of control at the fitba.

[Kato]

Maybe the people saying "we would have done the same" could edit their comments to "I would have done the same" as they are in no position to speak for every Hibs fan on this subject.

I reckon about a third of their support were cheering as though they had scored a goal something I've never seen before and hope I never see again.

Thought it worked for us their players seemed to be under the impression we were a one man team too and they visibly relaxed when Leigh went off. Well done Caldwell and of course Spoony.

Its not only their players, so called pundits and media ****s think the same. Aslong as we have cover for our injured players we will come out on top, I think we have a better depth and quality of players than the rest of the league, if we can hold onto that team I honestly believe teams like M,well, Inverness and Dons will die away come the end of January, but we need to keep picking up the points and winning, all we need to do is hang in there until then.

[Phil MaGlass]

Any news on Leigh´s injury?

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Aw dinnae kid yersel man ..hibs fans would do the exact same ..its tribal ..its in us all ..:agree:

Definitely, theres an awfy lot of precious folk on here these days.

[Hermit Crab]

Was deffo Darren Barr

And Barr got applause from mcglynn when LG was down getting treatment.

[Hermit Crab]

Any news on Leigh´s injury?

Was going to ask the same thing.

[East Coast Hibe]

Any news on Leigh´s injury?

Bruised and swollen by all accounts.

He tweeted that he should be okay for the weekend :)

Had zaliukas gone off in the same circumstances yesterday ... I'd have been cheering. It was never a bone snapping type leg break situation. They saw as well as we did that he wasn't in such pain that he couldn't hop back on to the pitch.

Had skacel somehow been in their colours yesterday and been stretchered off ... I'd have managed a "cheerio cheerio" right enough.

[HIBERNIAN-0762]

I have. Septic supporters chanting "Yogi, Yogi ..." as Bobby Duncan was stretcherd off in the late 1960's for one example.

Hughes had stamped on the back of Duncan's leg and broken it - deliberately.

I was there and can confirm this, my auld man said after the game that you could hear his leg snap at the fit o the walk, never even got booked for it if memory serves me right..animal

[clerriehibs]

Nonsense. Never a week goes by without a potential leg breaking over the top challenge being shown on telly. If that's not wishing a serious injury on a player by another player, then I don't know what is.
