This is a great game to show the Hun hordes the SPL doesn't need them. All we have to do is go along and support OUR team .

**Thecat23** · 05-10-2012 01:52 PM

Correct.. I hope it's a good crowd and show the SPL is thriving without them.

***Chuck Rhoades*** · 05-10-2012 01:55 PM

Will be under 10,000 I feel. Club missed a trick by not promoting this game in all ways possible.

Strange...stadium ammouncer mentioned it a few times at the ICT game, then nothing until PF mentions it again in the Evening News last night...I haven't seen any other promotions other than on the Fishy site....
looks like it's up to us then !

I sort of agree. It would have been a good idea for the club to remind the fans that this is the 'would-be Rangers' game to encourage fans to get along and support that fact that Hibs did the right thing in voting against their entry into the SPL. But at the same time, I really think it's the fans job to turn up and support the club tomorrow - the club did what we wanted, so we should be backing them now by turning up in numbers. I think it falls more on the fans than the club.

***PatHead*** · 05-10-2012 02:16 PM

I was thinking about this just before I came on Hibs.net. Tomorrow is the day when all these supporters who said they would never come back if "Rangers" got off scot free have to attend. Even if it is only for one day.

There can't be any excuses or they are hipocrites of the highest order. If they can't make it the least they can do is send a cheque to Hibs for the gate money. Hibs stood up and were counted now is the time for supporters to do the same. Put your money where your mouth is.

Before anyone calls me an uberfan or the likes I wouldn't demand this from supporters if it were not for the exceptional circumstances. Tomorrow is the day when the board will find out the cost of not backing "Rangers". Don't let them down. Best of all be there and enjoy yourself watching and cheering Hibs on to victory.

Exactly, the club should have been driving this by stating that theyhave been hit by not hosting Oldco twice a season and the financial implications this has caused. Then marketing for a sell-out to make up this loss.

Yet they still expect us to break the bank by signing quality players?

Exactly, but some people will always have an excuse whether it be, pricing, on TV, kick-off time, opposition, out of the country etc. The list is endless and some people will always find an excuse despite stating they would come back and help support our club during what would a difficult season for the books.

Yet they still expect Hibs to break the bank when it comes to the transfer window?

Aye. Fan power is all well and good when we are demanding Rangers are punished but when it comes to honouring the promises made if the club do the right thing then it's up to the club to do more. Or something like that.

Not at all, it's up to those fans who made the promises to stand up and be counted. However, knowing our support, that was never going to happen. So I feel the club should have been pushing for it.

Apologies if the previous post came across the wrong way.

These folk who are out of the country can still stick a cheque in the post to Hibs for tomorrow's gate fee. If you don't and Hibs continue to struggle financially you won't have the opportunity to bust the bank in the next season or two when we get to Hampden again.

As I said time to stand up and support the club for demanding "Rangers" get bumped.

They could have done much more. That they didn't is confusing, that's for sure.

Would having bought a season ticket even though I will be lucky to make 4 games be enough?

As long as you have also pledged 20% of your salary every month.

**francobaresi** · 05-10-2012 03:37 PM

First of the season for me and junior... Looking for a result and entertainment, all lacking last season...

I'll be there for the first time this season. No longer working a Saturday night.

**muzzhfc** · 05-10-2012 04:06 PM

just back from ER and got my ticket. First game of the season, Sect 43, row HH. Cant wait

**~~LeighLoyal~~** · 05-10-2012 04:09 PM

Shouldn't we have a big banner of a Zombie hun with "Sevco GTF" written under it? The most despicable excuse for a football club I know of. I hope they never come back. :fenlon

Anyway, I'll be there to support my club who have paid their taxes since 1875.

One is just being finished as we speak.

***whiskyhibby*** · 05-10-2012 05:08 PM

Not me unfortunately, off to Oban with friends for a meal in Seafood Temple!

**FranckSuzy** · 05-10-2012 05:17 PM

I'm nightshift all weekend but planning to head along tomorrow (sleep permitting

) but before the uber fans round on me, I'm also a ST holder

**Onceinawhile** · 05-10-2012 05:37 PM

Think we will manage to sneak over 10,000 as I'm sure Dundee will bring a bigger support than ict. Crowd was 9908 or 9809 so even 200 extra Dees would make a difference. Was surprised the club didn't put put a bit more comms pre game trying to increase the crowd though.

***Piqué*** · 05-10-2012 06:50 PM

Made the trip today so I'll be there. Hopefully get one or two of my college pals down here persuaded as well.

hfc rd · 05-10-2012 07:11 PM

Currently on the Megabus heading to Edinburgh from Manchester to not only visit my parents but head along to ER to watch this game.

I know this might be a bit off topic but what is the best time to head to the ticket office to avoid queues and purchase a ticket for tomorrow?

**Hibby 2005** · 05-10-2012 07:20 PM

The last two results, plus it's Dundee, will make a 10,000+ crowd hard to achieve.

out o' the country is a good excuse, especially if ye are, naw? or deid, that's defo a good excuse.no allowed in if yer deid,or not to my knowledge. some of the other excuses are quite relevant though, tv, times,days etc all of which are the fault of spl clubs,HFC et all. not making an excuse, but for tommorow's game, the fact that it is not on tv, and is on Saturday, at 3pm.................I will definately be there! unless I get run o'er wi a bus before ko.
