If they are going to spout out news, they should at least stick to the facts.

I'd much rather hear them coming out and saying "we're gash, most of us arent working hard enough or fit enough for the Hibs jersey. Expect massive changes in January".

Now that would be something worth hearing.

Latest news, Man gets angry in empty room at nothing.

[Wotherspiniesta]

The players should be feeling positive.

This is the longest we've gone unbeaten all season.

Let the good times roll

Not angry just fed up.

Memo to all at ER shut the f*** up and do your talking where it matters. Quite reasonable request methinks.

Agree... but most teams go out and play for their own pride if not for the jerseys. Apart from a choice few we do neither. I am over it I just to win every week as that is what I expect.

Completely agree with the op's sentiments. Interesting to notice the only dissenting voices, so far, Scoopy, a man in the know and close to someone. And a couple of admins. Is this the official site now?

Nah Scoopy runs ma supporters bus and is just like me Hibee through and through. It's just me, I have been known over the years to be a greetin faced b*****d especially when my Beloved Hibs dinnae win.

[nonshinyfinish]

I think it is naive in the extreme to expect players/managers to say exactly what they are thinking to the media. Is Calderwood really going to say, 'Aye, we're *****e' and then list the players that he doesn't think are good enough? Of course not. Does he have a list of players that he doesn't think are good enough and wants to shift in January? Of course.

I don't think we are keech I think we are just massively underachieving. As I heard at the St J game we have 3 ex Man U players playing and still we cannot look capable of beating most teams. It's maybe just me but I expect Hibs to win every match they play - unrealistic yes - but i still expect it and always have done. In CC I trust.

[Hibbyradge]

What's this thread about?

The players have not had a game for weeks.

Of course they're "straining at the leash".

Under Yogi we were playing cack, but he was telling the world that we were playing like Brazil and the Dutch. Now that was embarrassing and bizarre IMHO.

I don't know why you are getting so many negative comments, so far.

Back to topic, I 100% agree with your view that the players must do their talking on the park. Even since Morais "we will be all over them like a rash" resulted in a tame game at Killie or the famous O'Brien "now you will see the real Alan O'Brien" or something like that, I have been getting increasingly fed up with such comments.

Get over it - well yes, it is not a life or death situation, but I hate people who are all talk and no action. I am sure you have seen plenty of them at work!

[matty_f]

Remember the stick Nish got when he said 95% of fans don't know what they're talking about? How did saying what he really thought go down that time?

[blackpoolhibs]

I now don't give a toss what any player says. I don't even take any notice of what the manager says now, in fact i sometimes don't even bother reading it now. Its always the same old sheite, although to be fair I'm not sure if i want them to tell me the truth, as they cant really tell me we are crap, and such and such is bloody hopeless.

Time for the boys to grow a pair and start playing for the shirt. If they don't do that now, then most of them will be off very shortly.

Reminds me of Sex Panther, it works 60% of the time, all the time.

Anyone can throw out a stat like that, I can't remember a footballing questionaire with a SAE to Colin Nish. Did anyone else sit the test?

[greenlex]

Players and managers saying this stuff are asked a question. They do t just stoat about like robots spouting this type of line. I am happy enough with what has been said. It's prefferable to we are pish and I don't know when our next win is coming from.
I would await a ten page thread if the truth was quoted by anyone from ER.

Perhaps you could tell us what the unofficial line is and we will all agree with that.

I sympathise with the OP, though.

I wish at times they would just say "No comment." or "We'll see if we can answer that one on the park come the weekend." They're just feeding the insatiable media machine, of course, but it's at complete odds with the club's usual philosophy of 'we'll let you know when we've got something to tell you'.

I can't remember the last time it happened, but there have been occasions in the past when Hibs players have been forbidden by the Manager from talking to the press in the midst of a bad set of results. Not a bad idea.
