After that ozturk boy scores another long ranger today Scott fanny baws on the mc at Tyni announces the scorer and starts going on about alan Stubbs along the lines of that's 2 in a million strikes blah blah blah, even ma hearts mates were cringin, sad ****ers and we get humpty about ours playing a song, joke if you ask me.

There was a thread on kickback the other day about some ship getting linked to them. The first 3 pages are full of 'imagine the seethe on .net' type posts. Didn't get a mention on here because no one cares so descended into a circle jerk and ended up in an argument amongst themselves. All they were interested in was a non existent reaction from here.

No we didn't. He never worked for Hibs, he worked for an agency and they were told he was not wanted back at ER if I remember correctly. This was because he had been told not to play that particular song. The rights or wrongs are another discussion but he was not sacked by Hibs.

[sbell1875]

I saw a Hearts supporting friend shared something from a Hearts related Facebook page along the lines of Ozturk vs Stubbs - Hibs the club that keep on giving.

Basically, it showed the goal from the Derby, Stubbs's interview where he said 1 in 999 times he'll score a goal like that followed by some terrible footage of his goal yesterday. Of course, those mutants were falling over themselves in mock and mass slevering.

Here's my take, the goals are completely dissimilar. One left the goalie with no chance and one the goalie has completely whored up his attempt at a save.

If Ozturk really was this man capable of 40 yard wonder goals every week he wouldn't be centre back. A thuggish centre back at that as well.

Case dismissed - The Hearts are obsessed with the famous Green & Whites.

Let them have their wee gloat session. The goalie made an erse of it and that's it.

They're obviously trying to turn their focus onto something else and away from the guilt of being the poppy stealers.

Never let them forget.

[Glorious St Pat]

Yes an example of their obsession with us but such mentality has clocked up how many derby wins? We on other hand do little to wind them up and come of worst. The last time our mc attempted to do it with taxman - he got sacked!

Let them gloat and do and say what they want.

I believe that, deep down, many of them are embarrassed about what their club has got away with over the years, but out of sheer pig-headed ignorance they will never admit it.

[Phil D. Rolls]

I thought it was quite witty, but a bit cringeworthy that they are bothered by what our manager says. Their managers have provided plenty of "kick me" moments over the years - but Hibs have avoided the temptation. Let them get on with painting themselves as petty and bitter, it's what they do.

[TheHarpy76]

Exactly.
So why we moaning when they do it.

Already on this thread there have been references to their creditor list and as I've already pointed out,Albert Kidd and '86.

There are one or two threads on here talking about them yet over there their board is always full of hibs threads. To try and make out that there is a similar obsession over here is ridiculous...as is trying to make people feel guilty about laughing at 86. Why would you want to do that?

I'm not trying to make people feel guilty, just stating a fact that on a thread moaning about their obsession with us someone brought up AK and '86.

For proof of their obsession you only need to look at the comments on each and every Hibs online story in the Evening News/Scotsman. Absolutely bizarre behaviour from what I imagine is a bunch of 40 year old virgins

However don't kid yourself on that there aren't a hell of a lot of Hibs fans that post in the comments section in every story about them.

Bottom line is that yes they are obsessed with us just as much as we are with them.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded to the extreme.

There's genuinely nowhere near as many Hibs trolls on their stories, not even close. I admit that it's two way but nowhere near to the same extent. As I said earlier, truly bizarre behaviour to care that much/have that much spare time

Not sure how better to argue it tbh.
I just think it's a swings and roundabouts kind of thing.

[Broken Gnome]

Being completely biased, Hearts edge the obsession. Given all the 'Hibs are no longer our rivals/dead as a club' pish from 2005-2012, it's actually us that defines their successes over that period. If they didn't have those two games at Hampden no one would give a flying one about they're arrogance.

Sad to say, its our suffering at the hands of them that made their cup wins what they were and the difference in both clubs at present. If any of them claimed Hibs were an irrelevance, it's the biggest lie imaginable. The whole basis of their lording it up is Hibs. And not in a good way.

I noticed that a few threads on here with content alluding to WW1 have been locked and I understand that, nobody wants to see a line crossed.

But if what Poolman says here is true its a bloody disgrace .... For a minister to bring that up at a remembrance service, which above all else should transcend football rivalries, and where Hibs officials were in attendance, is an outrage as far as I'm concerned and utterly disrespectful to us and the occasion. I presume Heart of Midlothian had no prior knowledge of this.

As for the ship thing. The Navy accepting a request from the Yams to be the "official club" of HMS Queen Elizabeth actually made me laugh out loud ..... Its a bit different from having a ship named after you. The Yams reasoning for this on their official website is frankly cringeworthy ....... Oh and on that subject, they might want to reword the bit on there that makes it look like they were responsible for the formation of McCrae's battalion ..... much as they would like to make that claim, they weren't.

I don't think so DH. There was no reason for his company to sack him (if indeed they did). Hibs tweeted an agency that another DJ be sent to ER as this one had gone against an instruction given to him by Hibs management.

Now that we have marked the centenary of the outbreak of WW1, this might be a good time for Hibs to distance themselves from the Haymarket memorial and pay our repects in future years in private. This has now went beyond paying respect to the fallen and turned into petty point scoring about football.

Let our club pay it`s respects with dignity elsewhere away from that circus.

I had to double check that article was real. Wtf is wrong with people? "Challenging times"? Have they completely lost their senses?

I wonder how the people, charities, small businesses, universities, emergency services, military charities et al on the creditors list are recovering from their "challenging times", never mind those people in Lithuania who lost their pensions and savings to fund Edinburgh's "big team" for a few seasons.

Also, why not establish connections with ALL the clubs whose soldiers fought in MacCrae's Battalion, including Hibs, QoS and others? Wouldn't that at least be a more inclusive and appropriate commemoration in keeping with recognising the sacrifices made?

We have a largely spineless body of football journos, with maybe one or two exceptions, but I wonder if anyone will have the guts to call this out for what it actually is? Absolutely disgusting. Disgusting.

Couldn't agree more Carheenlea ....... Until about 10 or so years ago this was a dignified ceremony ... but in recent times it seems to me that the Yams have turned the WW1 stuff into something else ... commemorative strips etc. Our fans have found cause to react. Whether that's justified or not is a matter for conjecture, but now Hibs are disrespected at the memorial service .... whether Hearts knew about it or not doesn't matter in my eyes.

Its time for us to quietly and in a dignified manner remove our representation from what was a ceremony rightly conducted by Hearts to commemorate a proud and significant part of the clubs history and all of the countries fallen service men & women, but which now appears to have become a vehicle for promoting the club.

[grunt]

Anyone following the Edinburgh Evening News on Twitter will have seen that they posted a picture titled "Hearts fans commemorate WWI" or words to that effect when in fact there were representatives of Hibs and QotS at the ceremony. They have since apologised and amended their story.

Interestingly in the last couple of days I have noticed they are saying lots of nice things about Raith Rovers and calling them 'part of the Macrae's family' and that's all well and good but as a Hibs supporter coming from a family that has lots of history with the Army and also the Royal Marines I do not believe I would feel either comfortable or welcome at the Haymarket service.

Hibernian lost players and former players and had players injured during the Great War. The numbers of men from Leith slaughtered on the Western Front and the 1915 Train disaster at Quintinshill ran into the thousands. Therefore if Hearts want to sneer at our club, they can do it on their own and Hibs fans can do what they did on Saturday, stand in respectful silence for 2 minutes and wear poppies if they choose to do so.

This subject has become a tough one for Hibs supporters over the last few years ..... I don't think the view that many now have, that Hearts and especially their fans have crossed the line between dignified remembrance of an event and ramming it down everybody's throat, especially ours is just paranoia. But dare to point it out and the reaction is predictable ....... Even on here its become a touchy subject because of that.

To my mind its no longer just about what Hearts did, but about some misguided but encouraged unspoken question of what Hibs didn't do. Kind of like this in fact:

I am now of the opinion that its time for Hibs to observe remembrance Sunday in their own way at the official ceremony on the Royal Mile. I would bet that I am not the only Hibs supporter who thinks this.

Totally agree. Unfortunately the Hibs board don't do defending Hibs in the face of attacks from outside. We are far to dignified to do that. Never mind that in football and to football fans, dignity is all to easily mistaken for weakness. im sure we will say nothing about the slight, and as usual, those ******* will feel that they have reinforced our inferiority a little bit more.

Who ever made this decision from the Navy needs there f***ing head looked at. had a chat with a mate about this and they would have been better of naming it after a Fife team, i wondered why Hibs weren't in contention for this.

But to name it after these thieving tramps is a joke.

Hearts Legends will play a charity match against an HMS Queen Elizabeth team?? You couldn't make this **** up!!! Does the Royal Navy know the Yam history with charity?!?!

I noticed on a Yam facebook page that mention was given to Raith and I think another club ( Falkirk ? ) I didn't comment, but to me it was a clear and deliberate insult by omission.

This subject has become a tough one for Hibs supporters over the last few years ..... I don't think the view that many now have, that Hearts and especially their fans have crossed the line between dignified remembrance of an event and ramming it down everybody's throat, especially ours is just paranoia. But dare to point it out and the reaction is predictable ....... Even on here its become a touchy subject because of that.

I think you are probably right and that sort of nonsense from them needs to be challenged vigorously as it's completely disrespectful to the occasion. If they make Hibs unwelcome at Haymarket with their sneers then we should move the paying of our respects to the Royal Mile.

In years past both Lawrie Reilly and Eddie Turnbull laid the wreath on behalf of Hibs at both Haymarket and at Contalmaison where my own relative is buried. But I can only imagine the reaction from Eddie if he had to listen to that sort of pathetic crap from them. He was a former Royal Navy man who served on the Arctic Convoys in WW2 and saw men drown and burn to death in front of his own eyes.
