they don't have a good recent record there, but will surely fancy it today?

['mon the beers]

Hoping they do the business today. For how well they’ve been going in the league this season I didn’t think they were that good a side on Tuesday. Hearts had the European game on Thursday so that might impact them!?

[Carheenlea]

There’s always a chance The Dons could crumble under pressure of the white hot atmosphere of an inciendiary Tynecastle.

They will be in trouble from the second BBC Heartsound start talking about the legendary, nay, mythical atmosphere.

you can mock.. but going to Tynie as an away team is similar to going to Galatasaray on a European night. Well minus the flairs…. And a crowd that’s half the size.. and a bit less noises… and more cardigans.. not so many banners either or flags.. or decent players….

[Since452]

A draw probably the best result if we're looking to reel in the sheep. They are the most overrated team in the league.

Hearts usually beat Sheep at Tynecastle

Will be a definite reaction from the Hearts tifosi if Dons score early

What is it wi jambos and their weird cardigan fetish, they even wear them in their 40s ffs. 🤣
Was it Levein that started the trend ?

[hibsbollah]

I actually have a chance to go if i want, sitting quietly in the home end, i dont know that many jambos but theres always the possibility i forget and out myself by jumping up punching the air when they concede.

Was it Levein that started the trend ?No mate, their dear old grannies have been knitting them since the wearers went to primary school and the tradition merely continues into adulthood and beyond - it supports global sales of maroon wool and faux leather brown buttons.

Beige corduroy strides are available but I think are restricted to Foundation of flumps members only now?

There seems to be an odd number of almost pension age or older punters amongst them that feel the need to walk about almost head to toe in maroon (including team coat with club badge) even on non match days, it just doesn't seem to be so apparent with other teams.

On a separate note, the amount of diving about that both teams do, there must be a good chance of a red card or two.

[hibsbollah]

F’ell ive had some insults in my time but thats fighting talk :faf:

[04Sauzee]

Hearts aren't very good but actually fancy they will tuck Aberdeen away this afternoon. Aberdeen weren't very good on Tuesday.

[He's here!]

A dull draw would be OK.

[erin go bragh]

Think the Sheep will win comfortably.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

Really hoping for an Aberdeen win. FWIW, I think Hearts have some decent players but not enough to compete in the league and in Europe.

[HarpOnHibee]

Injuries (minor) and red cards from dodgy VAR decisions all round, wrecking both teams for at least the next several games.

[Carheenlea]

You’ve obviously never been to the Skyline Lounge then with Jambos dressed up in their match day best .

Injuries (major) are also more than welcome from my point of view.

I don’t want anyone to die, but a few season ending injuries would be fine by me.

[Donegal Hibby]

Think the sheep will edge it 2-1 and top of a good weekend ….

Nice to know there’s doubt and nervousness in their usually gung ho ranks. Mind you, a win today will see them back challenging and expecting a top four finish. :greengrin

[Smartie]

The Sportsound golden child derby?

They won’t know who to support.

Perhaps your "major" is simply my minor. :wink:

Kind of agree, now that we have gone above them they will raise their game for this, no doubt Shankland will get a couple of goals after all the abuse he appears to be getting. Aberdeen were poor against us, hopefully they won’t struggle for 3 games in a row but who knows.

[SHODAN]

I went along to Tynecastle a few times when I was a student and bored in the hopes of seeing Hearts lose.

They beat Hamilton 2-0, Celtic 2-0 and Aberdeen 5-0.

I learned my lesson.

[GreenCastle]

Aberdeen win please. Sadly I don’t think we will catch Aberdeen and need Hearts to stay behind us. The more turmoil and pressure on the manager and Shankland the better.

[Jones28]

Aberdeen to pump Hearts please.

Canny believe some hoping for a draw, why?

[Real Emerald]

I remember when we were bottom of the league, terrible. 😁

[easty]

I think it’ll be a draw, but I hope they get absolutely humped.

[The Harp Awakes]

Indeed. They'll be swooning over Aberdeen's stupendous title challenge while reassuring every one that there's no crisis in Gorgie and the good old jambos will soon be marching up the table.

[Dashing Bob S]

Aberdeen by at least 5 please

[Tambo]

Would be great if the sheep can do it.

[green day]

Aberdeen have rotated their squad, defence looks ropey to me.

[Itsnoteasy]

Sounds exactly like Hibs

[LunasBoots]

Aberdeen seem to have hit a rough patch, but heres hoping

[California-Hibs]

0-7 belongs to us, but I'll happily allow Aberdeen to remind them of that day again today!

[cabbageandribs1875]

after a quick check for wins at Tinycastle so far this century



Aberdeen - 5
Hibernian - 7


bookies quite rightly have Heartz favourites, unfortunately i agree



but, Mon the Sheepies :)

[Springbank]

Dons fans forum doesn't like the look of their defence & seems odd to change shinnie out for the more light weight Clarkson when there's a new defence to protect

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Aberdeen 10/3 on Betfair

[Baader]

Come on the Dandy Dons!

[Hiber-nation]

Can't see Aberdeen winning this. Low scoring Hearts win or draw.

Only 6 for Hibs I think. Millennium derby 2 weeks too early.

[cabbageandribs1875]

yeah i did look at that, soccerbase sometimes don't have the exact month/date especially for games decades ago

but i already knew we won the last Derby of last century at Tiny so i've cheekily added it in for the 1999/2000 season:greengrin

edit: Sun 19th Dec for that 1999/2000 game

Tynecastle is throbbing as the hosts start on the front foot and Aberdeen are under pressure immediately.

What the F#$k kinda reporting is that

2 down so far. Lovely.

[CyberSauzee]

1-0 the Dons. Great finish. Cardigans will be getting chucked on to the pitch.

[HarpOnHibee]

Aberdeen's ability to look relatively average while still managing to carve out goals out of nothing is why they are where they are in the league. It doesn't take much to be high up the table in this league, just some effective breaking with composed finishers on the ball.

[flash]

Spanish joker for Hertz loves a wee bit theatrics.

[easty]

I don’t think Aberdeen have even been poor.

They’ve rested players today and haven’t ever looked troubled. Comfortable on the ball all over the park. Created a couple of decent chances.

The real aberdeen are back utterly hopeless they are lucky to get a draw at Easter Road and Tynecastle. Can't believe a team as poor as them are second in the league

[Fifeshirehibs]

From the Bottom of our Hearts has a new meaning tonight. Marooned . Play golf with a big Blackpool Tower, he was a top level ref, and Pool fan, says when Calderwood left Critchley was lost at Blackpool. These last 2 European thumpings have come from teams relegation threatened in their countries.

[SHODAN]

Aberdeen's competitive record in Edinburgh, last ten years:

Played: 37
Won: 8
Draw: 11
Lost: 18

Goals for: 31
Goals against: 57

[cubehindthegoal]

Wouldn’t have normally watched that match, don’t care who wins, but today I did. Draw is fine. From now on though, it’s about what WE do. GGTTH.

[buktapurple79]

Sheep are gash but still took 2 points fae the Yams they are in serious soapy bubble, all the expectation and f-all to justify it, they will not got ahead of us and I know that’s a low bar but we’ll climb and they will get dragged into the mire oh happy day!

[Fifeshirehibs]

Beeb commentator describing Duk as " looking a little sheepish there".....

[Jock O]

Strengthening my previous post that it keeps us in the the battle for 3rd. :greengrin

I think it definitely proves that all outside the Glasgow two, and actually including Rangers currently, teams will take points from each other all the way up at the moment, so a run of a few games against teams around you will improve position rapidly, so I suppose that's what we need to be aiming at in immediate future. It is unlikely any one team will emulate Aberdeen's run to date but half a dozen games between now and winter break could make a huge difference in what teams aims are for next year.
