It’s really about losing to hertz, or finishing below them in the league, if u canny beat them then you need to beat one of the old firm, or be ahead of them in the table, or the fans turn sour, that’s the reality most Hibs minded folk live in.


They will if they canny beat hertz.


We finish 4th, lose to hertz another twice, start next season, are behind hertz in the league and lose to them two more times, you really think the fans won’t want a change of manager?


Yeah. The original point was taken outa context I think.

The original point didn't actually mention next season. Your first post was about losing to hertz and finishing below them were you indicate the need to beat one of the old firm which isn't a reality for Hibs fans as most of us know how far ahead they are of us now.Your 2nd post refers to if we cant beat hertz there will be sackings and again no mention of next season which is were I said if we lose to hertz and finish 4th no one will be sacked . Your 3rd post you add in next season and also throw in losing 2 further more derbies in it . Did I take the original point out of context or did you move the goalposts slightly on it ?

Suppose ppl just see what they wanna see, Uber fans gotta defend, doom n gloomers gotta be negative.

I don't think I'm a Uber fan just wanting to see what I want , more trying to look at things in a rational way , would talking about losing derbies this season and next with talk of sacking a manager be seen as a doom n gloomer and negative though?.


So that reply is kinda skewing the original post. I was never claiming hertz were better than us, or predicting that they would win the next 4 derbies. Or that lj should be sacked.

No you haven't claimed hertz are better than us or predicted 4 derby defeats or that LJ should be sacked though you have implied in your posts about 4 derby defeats and the manager getting sacked though .

U said we finish 4th there would be no sacking, under any circumstance.

Yeah I did say if we finish 4th this SEASON there would be no one sacked , don't know were the under any circumstances has come from as I don't think I posted that part btw .

I said if we finished 4th n lost the next 4 derbies while also being behind hertz in the league come Jan, there would be a sacking of the manager.

I think we should just concentrate on this season first without going to far ahead of ourselves as there's a lot of football to be played in this one yet.

Fwiw I think it’s unlikely we will lose the next 4 derbies, but if we did, the hate would be on and someone’s head would roll. It’s just the way the footy works.

Of course it's very unlikely we will lose 4 derbies in a row, hertz are no world beaters and certainly aren't miles ahead of us which makes this a very strange thing to be debating actually. If we are going into the realms of fantasy about hertz winning 4 derbies it is also possible that Johnson could win the next 4 and become the greatest thing since sliced bread that is also the way footy work's too.

You are aware of how poor our record is against Hearts? Whilst I absolutely think we should be getting a result against them at ER next months, them winning the last two derbies would hardly be a massive shock.

We need a win against them and LJ could really be doing with one.

Yes our record is poor against hertz , I get that , though I don't think it would be a massive shock if we beat them at ER either and I'm certainly not going to right us off against them just yet . Considering injuries , bad decisions and all the other stuff that's went on at our club to be only 5 points behind them just goes to show they aren't all that far ahead of us really.

Better teams lose to weaker teams because they lose their focus or take it for granted that they'll win and they lose that edge that makes them better.

We're not bad enough for that to happen so they're always up for the game.

Regards your second point, the gulf between them and us has never been bigger and it's only going to increase unless your mystery billionaire oil sheik arrives at Easter Road soon.

Dodgy puns on the Fish thread only please. 😀

You have miss quoted me up there, I would never slaver something like that haha.

The original post was replied to by 2 folks, you took your lead from their replies and changed the dynamic.

It probly would be seen as doom n gloom er by the happy clapping bunch.

Being better than hertz is all that really matters, win against them, finish above them, having the bragging rights and no one cares about anything else.

When we are “losing” to hertz the only thing that covers the cracks is a wee win against the old firm.
