"the big team"

[21.05.2016]

Think the penny has finally dropped that they aren't some big mega club. The financial doping fuelled the delusion. Now its a level playing field the reality has set in at last and they HATE it.


Edinburgh is green and white :flag:

They haven't done so well since the financial doping has stopped the level playing field is breaking their "hearts"

The penny hasn't dropped yet. It'll drop in 2-3 seasons time when they're scraping 7th/8th/9th in the league, getting pumped regularly on derby day and playing to crowds of 10-11k tops. Let's see how resolute the big team's support is when it comes to season tickets then.

Big teams have big stadiums..

ER biggest football stadium in Edinburgh and fills up if required.

Wee teams build a new stand and can't ever expand.

Big teams win both cups..many yams haven't see the league cup ever be won.

Wee team - wee pitch ( tattie pitch) at the Tynie Library- quietest fans home and away I've known.

Just looked at both teams cup records since 'that final' when the financial doping stopped - interesting!

Hibs
P 21 W 15 D 3 L 3 F 44 A 22

Hearts
P 10 W 2 D 3 L 5 F 9 A 21

All 3 of Hearts draws have come against Championship sides and 3 of their losses have been to Hibs. Both their wins have come at the PBS, only one against a top division team.

10 of our goals have come at the PBS - so that's both Hibs and Celtic scored more Scottish Cup goals at the PBS than they have in the past 5 seasons.
