Last Sunday I attended my first Hibs game in an absolute age.
In my heart, and I speak as a non Edinburgh Hibee (and not a young man), I have never been away and walking into ER on Sunday it felt like that.
I had to attend the game, the future of the club I love was and is at stake. Anyway, I knew as many of us knew that a 2-0 first leg scoreline was fragile and Hibs have a history of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
My point is this, even as a non regular attending Hibee, I have been banging on to fellow Hibs fans over the last 2 years on Hibs.net that a majority of players were not good enough and Rod Petrie MUST be removed from his position. All I have ever heard in reply is Petrie was the greatest thing since sliced bread and our best 11 from a bunch of idiots was yet to be found.
Collectively we accept second best and for all I love Hibs it will always irk with me that my fellow Hibees accept that.
