St J go on a good run, and then we win the derby causing them to drop into bottom six (even if it was on goal difference?

I think I’d soil myself.

I do realise that St J are on -9 with them on 0 just now.

Our +14 goals must be worth an extra point at the mo.

Today's game is great for us, as someone or both have to lose points, draw would almost be the best result for us, but it could be enough for the Hertz to stay in the top 6 after the break.
Win for the Dons makes it harder for us to catch them, and heap pressure on Hertz to stay in the top 6!
Win for Hertz the worst result for us, but makes it easier to catch the Dons!!!!!

It is very difficult for away teams on the 5-a-side pitch at tiny. We need to be prepared for the usual attritional sh-ite next week. It’s Potter’s biggest game of the season and the yams will not finish below us this season unless we win the battle first in each of the next two derbies.

Totally agree. Biggest myth going is that their pitch is too small to play football on, and that you can't play football against them.

Stubbs' record at Tiny, without being fantastic, was enough to show that of you go there and play football you've got a chance of coming away with something.

We didn't have a single good derby performance there under Lennon that I can remember, and that's because he bought into the war of attrition cliché rather than playing to our strengths against them.

You are right Stubbs did pretty well against the yams but overall I don’t agree. Lennon’s teams were all bullied there. If you don’t stand up to Levein’s tactics you can forget about playing to your own strengths.

It's very much a case of "can't or won't?" when it comes to playing football at Tynecastle.

Yes, the pitch is smaller than what we're used to.

Yes, they'll be in our faces right from the first whistle.

Does that mean we can't beat them? No. We have to remain calm, try to get the ball moving and look for openings that they create by pressing high. Hopefully Heckingbottom, untainted by all this Edinburgh Derby mythology crap, will be able to set us out accordingly.

Stubbs made sure we stood up to them and put ourselves about whilst also trying to get the ball forward and get some good attacking play going. Lennon just set up to kick the **** out of them with no plan as to what to do after that.

No, it really shouldn't.

Why?

As I mentioned, quite a few winning runs in the league have been kickstarted by either of us beating the other. Hearts prioritising derby wins didn't set them back in the league in their periods of dominance, and neither did it us a couple of years ago. It also ensures you get a few surprise wins out of nowhere - half the reason we had a terrible record a few years ago is because we treated it as "just another game" while for them it meant everything.

Case in point - the Tynecastle derby at the end of last season. Their season was over and they had lost all their games in the split but turned it on for us and ended our season. If we had approached it with the same intensity, we'd at least have gotten a draw.

We've only twice beaten them three times in a season, 1975/76 and 1994/95.

For what it's worth, it's not some sort of magical key to success. The last time Hearts won four derbies in a season, they also got relegated in the same season. Being able to beat one side doesn't guarantee you're going to finish high in the table or win a cup.

Isn't lording it over your rivals part of the derby experience to an extent? I by no means "hate" Hearts in the same way a lot of people do - at the most, my "extreme dislike" is reserved for the OF only - but winning a derby is IMO the best feeling as a Hibs fan bar winning a cup. I preferred the 2012-13 season - in which we were by and large average but were unbeaten against them - to the 2009-10 season, where we finished 4th but didn't win a single game against them. It makes seasons all the more special - I'd rather beat Hearts twice or three times than thump a Hamilton or St Mirren 6 or 7 times.

Fair enough about derby dominance not neccessarily correlating to success elsewhere, but you have to remember that this was an administration-hit barebones Hearts that won four games against us, and they would have avoided relegation if it weren't for their points deduction.

I'm just putting forward the point that - even if it shouldn't be as extreme as "winning derbies are more important than anything else" - we haven't treated games against them anywhere near as seriously as they have in recent years, which in part contributed to the pre-relegation dominance they had over us even with extremely poor teams. Beating Hearts should be a priority - maybe not THE priority, but one of them - as it raises everyone's spirits and brings people back.

Beating Hearts should be a priority - maybe not THE priority, but one of them - as it raises everyone's spirits and brings people back.

It raises the spirits, primarily of fickle fans who will abandon us again once Hearts win a derby or two. The 9 in a row we had over them brought a lot of fans out of the woodwork, that's subsided in their recent spell of dominance over us.

I don't deny that Hearts probably did take derbies more 'seriously' than we did in the 2000s, but you know what else they did? They bought players with money they didn't have and therefore were favourites in almost every derby on account of having a more expensively and better-assembled squad. The more you spend, the higher the quality of player, the more likely you are to win any match, irrespective of it being a derby or not.

I know I'm in a minority on this, but beating Hearts doesn't give me half the satisfaction of beating Rangers. Now there's a vile institution.

Hearts are our rivals, but their fanbase are (largely) just people on the other side of the city who chose to support their local team over one of the Glasgow two. Good on them, for that.

[the satisfaction of beating Rangers. Now there's a vile institution]

The club that i despise more has not been founded yet!

Many years ago my youngest brother was playing in a Youth Cup final for Salvesen.
The kind of games that attract scouts, of course .

One man on the sideline asked a Salvy coach/official the name of the striker who was having a stormer.(my brother)
When told the surname, he walked away muttering to himself.
Yes, that man was a rAngers scout.!

Perish the thought that such a club should ever come into existence. :greengrin

I could find common ground with at least 90% of Hearts' support away from football, with Rangers' it's got to be about 20% at most. The vast majority simply can't look past my football team, my heritage, my politics or my upbringing.
