Ha Ha Hearts
Some 2nd half.
If that's in a derby game Gordon saves that
100%. Tips it on to the post and the score off the break away.Quote:

It was in reply to a post solely talking about Aberdeen. The dig was shoehorned in with glee by a poster who doesn't like Hibs.Quote:

He definitely hadn't been booked before. Very strange.Quote:

No one seems to know. Beaton didn’t show the yellow card to him in quick succession which he should have done if it was two separate cautions. Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s been a total F up.Quote:

Beatons been flashing so many yellows at hearts players it's no surprise we missed it !
Will be interesting to see if the Yam can be organised, show some bottle and get a draw when down to 10 men.
Is s what the entitled do, re Voldemort after Hibs penaltyQuote:

Good thing we have Hearts to provide us with much needed therapy this season. :wink:

Shankland is a sneaky thug. For me, he is the most dislikeable person in Scottish football.

They have a decent chance of getting second. Sevco are very poor.Quote:

It makes things worse for Hibs that Aberdeen have improved so much and Hearts are having a shocker of a start but we are only 3 points ahead and could be on equal points and or below them after the derby.
They’ll discuss it in full looking at every angle on Sportscence this evening!Quote:

If we can get it right, we can take all 3 points from Dundee Utd which would give us a significant lift for the derby.Quote:

The only thing we do with any urgency is sack managers and marketing to fans.

This one tame so far.
Aberdeen's turnaround has been especially rapid (although they did finish last season quite strongly despite bring bottom six). 13 straight wins is impressive. United look uo have come back better prepared this time round.Quote:

Aye but are they sheite to watch, or foul players when they are breaking and strangling the life out of games, if so we want none of that pish at Easter Rd.Quote:

To be fair, they average two goals a game in the league and three goals a game in the cup so they must be doing a bit more than just strangling the life out of things. If we had a manager getting that from the team whilst winning 13 on the bounce, I’m sure we could all put up with a wee bit time wasting or whatever.Quote:

Both clubs however, have had financial/regulation problems in the past.
There was an incident in 1990s when 3 or 4 Sevilla players assaulted some Betis supporters outside a nightclub. Went to court and think some players were fined/suspended.
Volatility reached it's peak in the 1990s/2000s when the two owners Del Nido (Sevilla) & De Lopera (Betis) despised each other to the point the derby games were toxic. Hence the frozen wine bottle thrown over the Sevilla manager's head. Also caused a fair bit of bother between both ultras in the clubs.
It calmed down slightly when a Sevilla player (Puerta) collapsed on the pitch and later died, not at a derby game. This led to a reconcilliation between Del Nido & De Lopera.
It is still the fiercest derby in Spain.
Whatever they're doing, it's effective and it gets results. Where as we carry this myth that our "brand" of football is the right way to play and we're just really really unlucky. When in reality, our brand of football doesn't deliver results and isn't even good to watch in the modern game. There is such a thing as trying to do too much on the ball and sometimes less is more, something that as a club we need to come to terms with.Quote:
