2024-25 season non-Hibs games thread

I'll leave dot net for now maybe some football discussions at some point when I look in tomorrow.

Plus, it's hardly on topic, and I pride myself in only arguing and ruining threads about football.

Like I have said it is horrible seeing the kids caught up in it, but to blame Israel is crazy. Fighting some of the worst people in the world(Hamas) who are using their own people to protect themselves and their weapons stockpiles. How are you supposed to fight against that? But to see some people on here claiming im trolling and make it seem im in the minority when most of the UK support Israel is just silly.

Have you spoken to most of the uk, since you’re speaking their behalf?


It’s clear there’s atrocities on both sides, perpetrated by both sides

3 in 4 people in the UK support an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, Hamas supports an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. Israel does not support an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, despite Hamas having been open to a deal to return all hostages.

You're right though. Normal people in this country certainly do know what the definition of a genocide is. Which may explain the overwhelming support for an immediate ceasefire and the use of the term 'genocide' by several of the largest human rights organizations in the world.

Didn't want to involve myself in this on the footballing section of the forum. But such ignorant spreading of disinformation can't go unchecked and is the very reason monsters like Trump are able to weasel their way into power.

Not true in the slightest. Very much in the minority.

Eh, you don't fight against it. They've won. It's not a fight. It's a massacre.

If someone is holding a kid hostage, you dont just shoot the kid to get to them.

Majority of the UK voted for Brexit. The majority of the UK are morons.

Please stop and get back on topic. This is the football forum.

Morton v Ayr just started on BBC, if anyone is interested

Are you really saying that because some people are wanting a ceasefire that the same people think it is a genocide? 2 different opinions

Does constant rocket fire coming from Gaza into Israel civilian areas not meet your threshold for war crimes? You should maybe learn your history aswell about who started the fighting and not just over the last few years where you think there is a "genocide" going on.

Are you really going off 1 poll of not even 2,000 people? In Eurovision this year the UKs most votes went to Israel. Thats probably just as meaningful as that poll lol But I dont think either side is going to agree, and like people have said its a football forum so I will leave it there.

Holy Ground, somewhat ironically?

Please take the politics to the Holy Ground. If you want to keep it going here then a long running thread will be closed and deleted .

Anyone watching Greenock vs Ayr?

Me. Has there ever been a good game of football played at Cappielow? Probably the worst away end in Scotland.

I started watching it but turned over to Monty on Gardeners World for some gentle relief from the constant drumming.

Nice to see he’s landed on his feet after leaving us.

Broony and Whittaker were behind me in the queue at Linwood Starbucks this afternoon. Brown was glued to his phone and very serious looking.
Forgot they had a game tonight, I just assumed they were picking up cars at the phoenix.

I didn’t realise Whittaker was their assistant manager until searching it after this post. Nice to see a pair of ex hibees doing well.

Perfectly observed minutes silence.

Well done all.

What the hell was that free kick for?

Which game? 🤔

Bournemouth ahead at Brentford.

Watched the 2nd half of the West Ham game, just as bad as Hibs. 0-0.

Aberdeen 3 Dundee 1

goal machine Simon Murray scores

Aberdeen 2 Dundee 1

3-1

Aberdeen’s dream season continues. What a run they are on and will bouy them again after the Celtic annihilation. We could only dream of having a team like theirs, which is a killer considering how awful they were last season. Grim.
