I think it's time we thought of a new name for our near neighbours as i find yams cringeworthy! I'll start the ball rolling with THE SAVILLE'S or CHARITY THIEVE'S but I'm sure the rest of you will think of something far more insulting?

I do and no cringe felt at all. Poppy thieves is worth a try as well as being descriptive[emoji106]

Nothing wrong with the term Yam - just about fits them perfectly. It's a vegetable and is from the family of tubers. It's also known as an invasive species and regarded as a noxious weed outside of cultivated areas - whats inaccurate about that?

I've never once heard any Hibs fan refer to them as Yams in the "real" world. Must be an internet only thing , think its cringey as **** to be honest.

I have never called them that myself. It would be interesting to know where it came from as it doesn't really make much sense.

Got to be a generational thing as the yam term is certainly used amongst my friends and family, we even have a family yam.

It's possible to call them more than one name[emoji6]

Out of three names mentioned, Yams is the least cringeworthy for me - 'Savilles' and 'charity thieves' is a bit school playground, and as for Yams, I'm another who's yet to hear anyone refer to them as that away from this forum.
The Jambo's is too affectionate for me, so I just call them Hearts and leave the childish name calling to Hearts fans.

Like others I would never use the word ‘yams’ to describe them and have never heard anybody call them that. Find it neither funny nor appropriately offensive to them. A .net phenomenon that hasn’t really caught on imo.:cb

I always refer to any individual jambo, or collective for that matter as a Hertz ****(s) or Jambo Basturd(s)

"YAMS" makes my toes curl tbh but I don't know why.

Poppy thieves - like

Savilles - really? Making light of anything that horrible basturd done is really ***** patter. Hun like almost

How can you cringe when someone on the message board uses that term ?

Who exactly are you embarrassed for?

Unless , you are a yam of course.

I don't normally use the term Yam when talking to them, but do use it if talking to mates who are Hibs fans. I don't personally have an issue with it.

I have wondered though, why did we start using the term 'yam' to begin with?

They refer to us as the vermin so a retort might be the Warfarin and to be honest Puddle Drinking Window Licking Twirlers is too long and not very catchy.

How about, given the startling resemblence between the two goateed wierdos Harris and Potter, we should call them the Rolfs

They’re all crap patter. If you’re not speaking to someone from Hibs.net you’ll need to explain yourself every time as no one else will have a clue what or who you’re talking about.

Poppy thieves is the worst.

I heard a couple of people way back refer to them as The Gorgons.


"The name derives from the ancient Greek word gorgós, which means "dreadful", and appears to come from the same root as the Sanskrit word "garğ" (Sanskrit: गर्जन, garjana) which is defined as a guttural sound, similar to the growling of a beast, thus possibly originating as an onomatopoeia"

From Wikipedia
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorgon)

Thought that sounded quite appropriate.
