After my Hertz friend throwing this line away again most recently, got me thinking and realising if Tynecastle's finest were to go to the wire and lose last day to Raith, that would be the third time I am aware of them capitulating at the final hurdle..ouch :confused: We totally Hibsed it five years ago right enough..the best thing was when JM told the listening public post match interview
Class
First class
and most of all HIBS Class :flag:
Do people still say that?
It would be the third time yeah but they're not going to blow an (at least) 8 point lead with 4 games to go.Quote:

Tedious term used by insignificant pundits.
Been replaced by "got Brora'd"Quote:

A jambo friend of mine used this term last week on a golf course when he screwed up a shot (again). I politely referred him to Brora / relegation / failure of legal challenges and manager / player signing policies. He was very quite after that.Quote:

What Hibs did that day at Hampden was so courageous..we should've won the League Cup-well done Ross County, all the same, the League-bl**dy Falkirk, came back in the Final, everyone waiting for us to fail again, some Hertz muppet asking for Hibsed it to be put in the OED-come on, behave yourself!-and a whole weight of history bearing upon them....it was a time for heroes..oh yes..after it as the commentator uttered those words "what kept you Hibs?"..then the exuberance..great moments and memories...we love you Hibees we do..:hibees
If this thread even needed to exist did it need to exist in block capitals? If so why?
Good list BH. And such recent stuff. The list could be so spectacularly lengthy too 👍🏻Quote:

I've never understood quite why we get so much scrutiny for the amount of silverware that we've won in recent years.
For the most part of that Aberdeen and Hearts have had much bigger wages budgets.
For that Aberdeen have a tired and tatty stadium, eye bleeding hoofball and the grand total of one league cup.
Hearts have two relegations, two Scottish cups, embarrasing defeats to Brora, an incomplete stand, a team of washed up journeymen and a list of stiffed creditors as long as your arm. It nearly broke them.
We've got a good stadium, a good squad with young talent, a league cup, a Scottish cup and a bright future. We're producing international level players and are third in the league.
'Hibsed it' is such a myth. We punch at our weight without a lot of the crap that came with it for both Aberdeen and Hearts. We're a well run club.
I personally just think the OP is a bit over eager to start threads and is an enthusiastic newbie, as opposed to anything more sinister.Quote:

And as alluded to, it provided John McGinn with a very satisfactory retort in the aftermath of our historic win.Quote:

There's a right few pedants on here. As an ex languages teacher, I thought my use of prose and punctuation was fairly sound. I'm being dug out for my use of capitals in the title thread, it'll be the exclamation mark next! :rolleyes:
Nah, for an ex languages teacher, you need to brush up your reading skills. You’re being called out for being on the wind-up. HIBSED It........GTF.Quote:

In my time supporting Hibs I have successfully pick up 2x Drybrough cups [valued in its day] 3x League Cups and a Scottish Cup. In three of the six successes we had to beat both members of the old firm in the semi and final, we had one win each where we beat Rangers in the semi or final and the only time we didn't play a member of the old firm we took care of Hearts on route.Quote:

Herts are legends in their own fans mind but the reality is a different world altogether.
WeeRussell has summed me up perfectly..too much time on my hands at present so have been starting up threads to see who thinks what in Hibs fan land. The way I termed the Marciano one was rightfully berated so no qualms with that..all about opinions..
I don’t really believe you, exclamation mark or otherwise.Quote:

GreenDay..I wasn't trying to quote Turnbull, loosely using it furthermore to John McGinn saying to football listeners "We Hibsed it right enough". A class giruy to all those 'voices' that were willing us to fail(and the media's beloved 'gers to win)...or would you have me as some American Idiot instead?
Why would a hibs fan start a thread like this? That saying was created by hertz fans in an attempt to humiliate us. Why any hibbie would use it is beyond me.
Hibs supporters using this phrase was, is and always will be the definition of cringeworthy. If there was any truth to it, which I refute as plenty other teams screw things up, it died on 21/5/16.
We Hibs fans have risen above such a futile put me down started by pathetic Bambos. If they are not flying planes with messages, contacting Susie Dent to change the English language, they still try to get in cheap shots by trying to self deprecate their own shortcomings with that old Turkish delight..when you're down you try to grab onto anything, eh? Like a drowning man..don't kid ourselves on fellow Hibees, there'll be plenty undercover readers seething at this as I type :cb
BishopHibee you are bang on..McGinn made a fool of all of 'them' live on air..WE showed 'em all :hibees:hibees
As has been said before, almost all their songbook died that day too. :greengrin
About as relevant as 5-1 these days.
Surely the correct title for a thread about Hearts is "jambottled it"? Using a phrase used by Hearts fans to criticise us is a strange choice.Quote:

Dont have a problem with it.
Hopefully we aren't using it with the Scottish Cup potentially opening up for us.

Brora’d it.
They all think they are so superior with this big team pish but let’s face it if big teams have the smallest capacity stadium in the city, not the last Edinburgh Team to win a major trophy, haven’t won the league cup for 58 years and counting, are in a lower league and were put out of the Scottish cup by a highland league team then they are a big team!

Polis make their way up and at the last minute the boy dives into the crowd but he hadn’t accounted for people anticipating this abs moving out the way it was like the parting of the Red Sea. Boy bit concrete but managed to hobble away whilst the Polis just shook their heads - just let em knock themselves out.
For those that first coined,or used the phrase, it died on their midden ,in the "10 minutes to go" game.Quote:

It's all made up by fans and the media to denigrate or build up a club or in the case of the media to give a story an angle or make it more interesting.
Each team and manager are separate entities and none has any effect on the character and abilities of another representing the same club years later.

This term from fans of the team who bottled it, blew it, and fell at the final hurdle with the winning post in sight in spectacular fashion on many occasions but most notably:
- against Kilmarnock at Tynecastle in the final game of the 1964/65 season, when they merely needed to ensure they didn’t lose by 2 goals! Beat 0-2 they lost the league by 0.04 goal average!! 😂
- against Dundee in 86 when they just needed to draw their final game. Well we know the rest of course, but in a rather amusing quirk this season was blown on Goal Difference. Hearts having been prominent in changing the goal average rule in 65. If goal average was used in 86 - they would have won!
Alanis Morissette and all that - lol 😂

Must be a sore one when the 'wee team' enters a competition at a later date than you've been pumped out of it.
Can we close this thread and Jambottled one?
