Okay, let's make no bones about it, Hibs were poor for pretty much the whole game and were outplayed by a Celtic team who never needed to raise their game.
Let's move on and build from here. Don't get down on the team. I'm fed up of all the Calderwood/Petrie/any-given-Player bashing threads. Accept what we've got and realise that, like it or not, we're not going to be fighting for Europe or playing flair football. Hibs are in a transition phase (as we have been since Mowbray, admittedly) and we al know that, despite the summer clear out, that few of the players out there on Sunday are going to be here long term. Players like Booth and Hanlon are the future, but the need to be playing in a team that isn't getting barracked by all of the stadium for every poor touch.
Hibs might not set the heather on fire this year, but we'll come good. It's the Hibs way. Well, that and not being up to our necks in debt like all of those big clubs paying unsustainable wages.

There's no way we should still be in this 'transition phase' though, that's the thing.
Had Calderwood had his full attention on strengthening the squad, I feel we would've been sitting a lot prettier than we are at this moment. As it stands though, he's had 1 foot out the door for the transfer window thus far, and has made 1 proper signing as a result of this. Not to mention he is still to appoint an AM. Calderwood had a clean slate to work with this summer, so there's no excuses for a poor season in my opinion. We have been pish for god knows how long. The fans have the right to feel more than a tad aggrieved as we're not getting what we're meant to be paying for - entertainment.

Any gripes I have with management / board are saved for another time.
Why don't more people 'support' their team on the pitch. Sure, bitch on here all week if they chose but for 90 mins 'support' their team.
Maybe I'm old school but I have seen far worse Hibs teams than this yet have never experienced the total lack of encouragement on the pitch.
As I stated in a post last week. If your not happy with the current team or the prices or the kick off times - just don't go..
Simple really..

I heard parts of the stadium booing? Is that too difficult for you to understand?
What kind of nonsense to you participate in when the half time whistle blows anyway? Just curious?

to do.
Maybe the guys that stay away are in some weird logic helping the club out as maybe once the board realize that
people are not going to be taken for mugs they might act to do something about it. But its hard for people who have
enjoyed going to matches for years to sit and watch what was offered up as entertainment on sunday and expect them
to clap or sing a long, only the drunks would be able to do that and they are not supposed to be allowed in.
I don't actually think the current players are the worse players we have ever had but i would say they are the worse
organized/motivated group of players we have had in the 30 years i have been following Hibs

Right then, maybe it was just one old guy sitting next to me. Who managed to create a large audible booing sound loud enough to make sky sports. In fact, maybe he picked up one of the furry mic's and booed into that?

I'm deaf in 1 ear, was not at the game as i was in Spain on my hols and i never heard any bo-ing, though i never watched the game coz i decided to lie at the pool instead. So there, confirmed there was no bo-ing.
