Jason Cummings

[Northernhibee]

Absolutely tragic and disgusting way to treat a Scottish Cup Winner at the club. Far as I’m aware he’s never said a bad word about us since leaving the club and that song was utterly pathetic.

Dinnae drink on an empty head.

[Alex Trager]

What song

[Northernhibee]

What song

Several “paedo” chants and songs. Pathetic.

[SteveHFC]

Several “paedo” chants and songs. Pathetic.

Yep. ****ing disgusting.

[Chorley Hibee]

Said as much at the game.

Shameful stuff and thoroughly undeserved. Guy worked his socks off for Hibs and has never had a bad word to say about us.

[HibbyAndy]

This saddens me

A true Hibs legend and loved scoring against them lot

Shan times

[Northernhibee]

Apologies to Jase from the majority of decent Hibs fans. Hopefully the rest will stay the **** away or shut the **** up.

[Chorley Hibee]

I still think I'd have him back too, he'd eat up some of our chances.

[CL0762]

Yup, at a Dundee corner Jason went 🤷🏼*♂️ to Lewis and pointed up at the stand. Absolutely zero need for it as well.

Also, those that tried to start an ‘Irish republican army’ shout take that ***** away to parkhead.

[BILLYHIBS]

Disappointing

We are better than that

A Scottish Cup winning legend

[Bangkok Hibby]

Huge swathes of football fans are weak willed, utter morons who get caught up in the mob nonsense. All teams suffer as do we. It won't ever change.

Generally not bothered by giving any of our ex players a bit stick. Cup winning team included. I agree though the couple of chants aimed at him were cringeworthy and distasteful.

For what is worth he isn’t the type of boy who is going to lose sleep over it and when he was walking down towards the tunnel were the Dundee team went in, he gave the Hibs fans in that corner a clap.

For a boy who is generally a bit of a wind-up merchant, he kept it respectful throughout.

[heretoday]

We should get him back. He'd have converted one chance we had late on no problem.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Absolutely nae need. 🙄

Was no need for that song. Really hope your proud of yourself.

He was getting applauded by the Hibs fans in that corner as he left. He really didn’t deserve the treatment some gave him today. It’s a pity some went down that road, apart from that our support was pretty damn good today.

[hfc-1875]

Sad to hear that, silly wee laddies no doubt. Noticed on the tv he seemed to give the away end a wee clap as he was walking off too.

it didn’t take off anyway so rest easy that there’s no appetite in the larger Hibs support for that type of pish.

[Bostonhibby]

Done nothing but good for Hibs, a bit of a character and he would have been on the end of some of our chances today for sure.

Good to see him focussed today. I'd be happy if we signed him again.

There was a few 'questionable' songs sung today by so called Hibs fans. The Paedo one about Cummings was a shocker. One guy tried to start an IRA chant but nobody joined in. The forever and ever song with all the lyrics got several airings and a guy behind me was screaming at the ref calling him a masonic bstrd. Pretty poor stuff today actually.

[Hiber-nation]

Yep daft laddies. Absolutely pathetic. They were even trying to start the Craig Thomson song and were calling McMullan a hearts barsteward for some reason. Hopefully will be drowned out when we have a bigger away crowd.

[heretoday]

I'm sure Jason is grown up enough to know that football crowds can be cruel, however much of a hero he was at ER. We do seem to have some unusually moronic types following at the moment.

Our away support always seems to be split between the very best Hibees and the hateful ignorant dregs.
Sadly most of us don't seem to have the inclination to do anything to address the nasties.
As for the use of the word paedo, every person I have ever heard use it has not been the most enlightened. Coincidence? Nah.

[JimBHibees]

Sad to hear absolutely moronic

I was going to start a thread when I got home, but glad it’s been raised
Felt really embarrassed to be a Hibs fan today, some of these chants were disgusting, never naught against one of our cup winning team. Spoke to someone from Hibs at the end, they were disgusted too. Young lads who’d been drinking heavily, dragging the whole club down!
Looks like we’re going to have self police at away games

Thankfully at the end JC got a few claps from the Hibs fans

[Borderhibbie76]

Wasn't there today but this is pretty disgusting and really not what JC deserves..sad to hear but u can tell on twitter some of the "younger brigade" that call themselves Hibs fans these days are not sharpest tools in the box shall we say - Cummings was a great player for us who deserves much better

Drinking heavily? It was a midday kick off. 3 can wonders and a low IQ?

[Mikey_1875]

Yep some poor stuff today. Found myself inadvertently in the vicinity of it and although some of it helped to create good atmosphere some songs were well over the top. Couple with some punching the stand and kicking seats towards the end it’s as if they had never seen Hibs drop points before!

Makes me sound like am an old fart but I can't ever remember behaving like that when I was a teenager early 20s at the matches...bizarre stuff

[Lancs Harp]

Didnt hear it on the tele but sad to hear about. Jase gave his all for Hibs, is a real character and of course is a 2016 hero. Just shaking my head here. Sounds like we had one or two idiots at the game today.

[A Hi-Bee]

Certainly not to one of our own ex-players, even the ones that went to the dark side, but history is full of terrible examples of what happens when the non independent thinker (sheep) are manipulated and they follow a few nasty bassa's.
I would take J.C. back at Hibs any day of the week, we should have done it when he was around for next to nothing.

[Baader]

Disappointing to hear this. We wouldn't have won the Cup without Jason.

I remember once at St. Mirren, decent banter with Jamie Langfield, and then the paedo chants started.
WTF, why?

Such a bad thread. Nothing to do with the posts, but to do with the (hopefully small proportion of) moronic away fans.

I've said it for years but Cumming's would thrive at Hibs. He's a really good striker.

[tmb1875]

What are folk expecting kp to do about it!? Does he know the 20 or so young team shouting the pedo chants, I doubt it. Better not to give these things oxygen and instead focus on another very good, noisy away support who done there best to lift the team.

So we should just ignore it? That’s condoning it in my book. KO could arrange for a statement from the club. I see reminder that such behaviour is not the fabled ‘hibs class’.

Don’t know what really needs addressed. Reflects poorly on the numpties singing it. Abusing a Scottish Cup winner is bad enough, referring to them in that manner even worse. But it’s just stupidity. If clubs were to try and address every daft chant or shout at games it would take up an awful lot of time.

[Hermit Crab]

I would suggest a combination of education as you say, and warnings that if it continues they will be banned.

Hibs do nothing to improve the atmosphere as it is without any other measures. They already say at every opportunity what won’t be tolerated. Your always going to have a small minority of bams at every club at everytime. These folk don’t care. Think Cummings deserves better but he knows what fans are like and won’t lose any sleep over it.

He had a very tidy first half. Dropped off nicely, kept possession and linked play well, took his chance when it came.

It was a good performance from someone I’ve got an awful lot of time for.

It won’t be news to him that we have some right cretins within our support.

For the first time in a while I looked at Jason and thought "that's a player who would have a place in the new look Hibs". Much harder working, much less selfish and still had that knack of finding a half yard of space and getting a shot away. I thought he was way off the level we needed but if he can do what he did today consistently then I'll have been totally wrong.

Fonts was solid at the back as you've said.

Terrible was to treat a Hibs Hero. These will be the same mindless, morons who felt it more important to noise up a few Huns at Hampden after the final whistle than celebrate the most famous of cup wins. Club would be better of without them.

I'd be quite happy if they were banned but not really possible. Singing that to a Cup Legend, that extended his contract so we got some money, and has never bad mouthed Hibs is sick. No doubt it will be the same half wits that block the toilet cubicle snorting coke. No idea if they are in the singing section but it came from the area that the songs were starting from. They are they are not welcome at ER or Hibs games in my opinion. Total low-lifes.

[southern hibby]

Don’t think it is impossible. Every team in the league has CCTV use this to identify them. Just the same as it can be used to stop sectarian/ racist abuse.

Lots of folk blaming it on the booze. Problem I've noticed in last decade or so is fans becoming dependent on coke. When I was younger, coke was something you could afford two or three times a year, and you'd take it at a party. Now kids can seemingly buy the ***** every single weekend.

Lads - word of advice. It might feel *****ing ace, but it makes you into a *****.

[CentreLine]

what do you suggest? Banning them all?

Tom Hart more or less put a stop to pro IRA chants simply by bringing representatives of some fan groups in to ER and explaining his wishes. Maybe a personal, grown up, approach to AST holders would be worth a punt? A spoon full of sugar and all that 🤔

[Dashing Bob S]

Groups of young lads drinking too much and indulging in questionable chants at Scottish football games…after a global pandemic, brexit and forty years of neoliberalism, I have my limits. I won’t be back at will stay at home watching games on TV with the sound from now on in.

Not a bad song but used to like in the 70s when some fans sang "The famous Edinburgh Hibees took a holiday to Rome to see what the Pope would say.And what did he say He said Glory to the Hibees there us never been a team like the Hibees etc.Now that was harmless but against the Huns many made a Pope Blessing sign which was wrong.

If young lads are still anything like they were when I was their age I doubt they are paying full price for all of it. There's always someone who can get their hands on that kind of stuff at a questionable price. It's usually best not to ask the questions.

[ABZHFC]

Daft laddies singing stupid songs, and I agree there should be some level of self-policing within our support (i.e. folk telling them to ram the IRA stuff etc). But as others have said, they'll get a kick out of seeing that they've succeeded in winding up .net users/older Hibs fans, and I doubt they care about 'representing' Hibs in the best light possible.

As a side note, grounds like Dens Park usually see poor atmospheres from us, we sometimes take a couple of thousand of us through but literally everyone sits down and barely sings unless we score. I do think this feeds into it, as all the singing is left to a small group of drunk/coked-up young boys who are all determined to outdo each other in outrageousness. I really wish we had an away end on their feet for 90 minutes and roaring the team on a bit more, would be far easier to then drown out anyone trying to start questionable chants. Wasn't the singing section's doing by the way, weren't at Dens in any official capacity yesterday

[Dee in peace]

Not usually in the habit of registering to other teams forums, but did so just to say that I couldn't believe the chants yesterday and have found this thread a refreshing read.

No moral high ground either as our support has sung some shocking stuff over the years too like most supports.

Glad to hear that Cummings seemed to take it well as I genuinely felt embarrassed at what a section of your support were repeatedly singing at him.

That aside, thought it was a good atmosphere from both sets of fans despite the noon kick off, on Sky Sports and ticket prices taking a hit on the size of both supports.

Decent game of football. Kind of a game of two halves. Thought you got lucky with the penalty but the Boyle one on one has to end in a goal so got off with that one.

All the best for the season.

It's a pretty pathetic thing to chant at any player, and I don't care who they are or who they play for. But to aim it at a Scottish Cup winning legend is as low as it gets. Also the IRA stuff is decades old and should be left there, or at Parkhead where I'm sure they'd be much better recieved.

You are not the only one who couldn't believe it personally was watching on the box so didn't really pick it up till logged on here. Embarrassing.

Thought you were good yesterday important you keep Charlie fit. Like Paul McMullan very skilful and tenacious and was superb in your play off games. Good to have the Dundee derbies back as one of the best games on the calendar. Good luck for the rest of the season. :aok:

Interesting to see a fair few comments attributing offensive comments/songs effectively to "daft young laddies". I'm not sure there would be the same reaction if similar comments/songs came from fans of Hearts, Rangers or Celtic.

I know people like the tribal atmosphere of football and while modern day is becoming a bit too sanitised there are still lines that shouldn't be crossed.

Football rivalry can still be enjoyed without it becoming toxic.

Well done to Rangers. The kind of firm action all clubs need to take with it having an impact on those that sat by and watched it as well.

Excellent approach from them for a change, too often it's written off as the actions of 1 or 2 idiots who can't be controlled. Punishing the supporters club they belonged to and who they travelled with should make them all think harder about self-policing this kind of crap in the future.

As much chance of that as us pinpointing our Stone Island Massive at Dundee

[Since452]

Jason C scored a scrappy goal but he isnt good enough for even a top Scots side.

He barely touched the ball second half. Happens every time an ex players scores against us, they're suddenly brilliant. Dundee is about his level.

[Since90+2]

I think Cummings would be a useful option to bring off the bench if you need a goal. He's a very natural and instinctive finisher.

His all round game is nowhere near good enough to be a starter for us though if we are aiming to finish 3rd again.

[Wilson]

He barely touched the ball second half. Happens every time an ex players scores against us, they're suddenly brilliant. Dundee is about his level.

Couldn't we apply the Lawrence Shankland rule and say Jase would see more of the ball and get more goals in a better team?

Saying Dundee is about his level seems quite funny to me. Perhaps because they just scuppered our chance of being alone at the top of the league.

[JammyDoidger]

Has the nack of scoring in big games, he thrives on it, absolute stick on to score yesterday. Would love to have him in our side, every time we played hearts i thought he would score.

I have to admit that as I get older these hateful chants , such as on Kyogo, Cummings abuse and some of the Mercer stuff from our fans, and many of the other hate filled stuff from other teams we hear at and around games puts me off football at times…

It depresses me that we have to put up with this garbage, and chat about it, rather than focussing on and enjoying the actual game . Despite our disappointment in the result, it was a good football game at the weekend, and there’s lots of good things happening in Scottish Football.

More than likely yes. But the important thing is that the morons who were involved in the racist songs have been given lifetime bans. Not everyone on that bus participated in the singing but regardless, the supporters club will now have to be disbanded and that will have made those numpties singing public enemy number one within a section of their support. A good thing, as it shows the consequences of racism.

What I hope it will also lead to is folk on supporters buses calling out such behaviour in future, with the implications for the supporters club being so severe.

Seems about right that ..a few years of exclusion feels about the right level of punishment .

He's not around to hear the chants, it's only going to hurt his family now, which I don't think is fair, so I think it's time we move forward as a support and take comfort from the fact that his plan failed and we're still going strong 31 years later.

Mercer offered to buy shares did not liquidate the club. Duff and Gray getting into bed with Rowland was the problem. Surely we are better than that.

The difference is that Duff & Gray genuinely wanted to improve Hibs, Mercer wanted to kill us off.

He did of course score a very important goal at Tynecastle.
Did pretty well for us a few years ago but not so sure he is good enough to strengthen us these days.

He was pivotal to the cup win no doubt to suggest otherwise is attempting to rewrite history.

I'm Irish I fully understand and I'm 100% proud of my countries history fighting an empire and the people who fought for an independent Ireland but it has absolutely nothing got to do with a football match played in Scotland or football in Ireland for that Matter. Fans that support Irish clubs don't sing chants about the IRA so why in Scotland??? By all means express these views by becoming politically active in a political party but keep it away from football. Hibs were founded by Irish immigrants. Our name is HIBERNIAN, our colours are GREEN AND WHITE and the HARP is on our crest. That's more than enough to celebrate our identity. Leave the political stuff to the bigot brothers in Glasgow.

By your logic the rangers fans who sung we thought you were dead we hoped you dead to Neil Lennon at Easter Road was OK and not a hate crime because it was an individual not the religion.

No, Wallace Mercer is dead. You can't really incite violence against the dead.

we would absolutely have been knocked out of the cup at tynecastle that day if it wasn’t for Jason Cummings. Don’t forget he scored the winner at Easter Road too before getting sent off

He got sent off in the 3-1 win not the 1-0 win.

They also had someone sent off

Fantastic post.

Hopefully the wee fannies singing the IRA pish find their way to Celtic Park because there’s no place for them at Easter Road. They’ll be wearing khaki parkas and getting smashed off Hearts das like their heroes the Green Brigade next.

This saddens me

A true Hibs legend and loved scoring against them lot

Unfortunately all clubs have them and we're not immune.
I sang some stupid stuff as a kid at the games but NEVER at a former player and where the sick chants come from aimed at a guy who was at the heart of us winning the cup is beyond me.
Why doesn't anyone take videos of it and post them publicly on you tube or something a bit publicity might embarrass them into thinking before spouting their bile.

It’s not a new thing. Tommy Macintyre came back to ER playing for Airdrie and was given a hero’s welcome during warm up.

10 minutes in to the game he was getting all sorts of dogs abuse and songs sung about him.
