    Well one of my Jambo associates tells me that the Cup games and the European ties have been so good that two or maybe three years in Division One is a price worth paying and given the choice he would do the same things over again.

    One Jambo walked by me in the morning after the game chanting... We're going down with the league cup, down with the league cup!... No shame! As much as hibs break your heart a lot... can't help but love them!

    I really can't get my head around that logic. I've met a few now who say they're happy with how things went to the point that even if they were liquidated and ceased to exist they wouldn't have changed a thing...

    I don't get it...
    Mon the Hibs.

    Yip I've heard the same, Europe and cup wins was all worth it, going to different grounds and in a exciting league next season will be fun.

    Saying that, I also heard the same from dundee fans after the bonetti years. Not so much now

    They are feeding off their derby win, and our current malaise. If we start playing well, and give them a doin, expect tears and regrets.

    They do anything to deflect away from the fact that they know their club is on the slippery slope, I have a "friend" who is still insisting that they will survive and be debt free ...and wait for it....stay in the premier league...

    Just what is in the water up Gorgie way?

    Hearts are going to get a semi. That's as good as its going to get for them for a long time. They are by a long way the worst Hertz team in decades and there is little chance of that improving. They got lucky against us it's as simple as that. There is a very good chance that they will be visiting Starks Park for a number of years as their funding model will not allow for any investment. if that keeps the dafties happy Im happy to let them get on with it. Recently we have been bad to watch but there were signs on Wednesday that there is a team in there trying to get out. Hopefully with Pat away we can move on and get the buzz back at ER. We have the opportunity to improve from a reasonable position. They don't. Even after Pat Fenlons last disaster I am happy to be supporting the team that is looking up rather than the one that is staring into the abyss. GGTTH

    If someone gets convicted and punished for a crime, but still says it was worth it, there's no way the punishment was sufficient.

    The SFA/spfl have to hit homfc again and again until the vast majority of them stop claiming "it was worth it".

    Roamingoff may have been the perpetrator, and the main beneficiary of whatever he was up to with the £60+million, but homfc did very well out of it.

    Shameless Charity robbing *******s. I would disown Hibs if they carried on like that. It says a lot about them IMO

    Glory hunters, youngsters in the main, who have little experience of supporting a club through thick and thin. This season has been a novelty, which will wear off when the reality of life in the lower divisions kicks in

    Also was told that a fair few of them wanted relegated at the tail end of last season so that they would have a chance to get back up in one go without having to play the The Rangers.

    At least there was some strategy in that plan.

    I don't quite see where the dignity enters the equation, myself.

    Right now I can assure you that supporters of other teams around the Caldera see Hibs as the biggest joke in football.

    And the "twirly scarfed numpties" could very well be celebrating a "wee" Cup win come the spring.

    Don't see where we have any right to be sneering at the Jambos right now, mate.

    I do; they're liars, cheats and thieves who have no moral right to be playing in the top division right now.

    Right - I'll tell that to the next guy who asks me how my team's doing these days. I'm sure it'll impress him mightily.

    The fact is that they ARE playing in the top division, and another fact is that they've beaten us twice already this season, and another fact is that the people running Hibs are about as much use as a set of chocolate soup-bowls, and people on this forum are still saying that now that Fenlon's gone, all we have to do is appoint another, better manager and all will be well.

    Delusion isn't confined to the Jambos. Plenty of it on here as well.

    Correct, can't believe it took 13 posts before someone said this. OP if hearts were in div 3 and Hibs were in a relegation battle, would things be fine and dandy just because Hearts are in a worse state?

    At that cup final a young girl was sat next to me and the poor bairn was nearly in tears....

    I said to her "I'd sooner lose as a Hibs fan than win as one of them"...

    It's something I meant when I said it and I will stand by it until the day I die....

    Forever green.

    Since when did morales have any influence on a football team? They're still here, so thats a bit irrelevant.

    Yes, I agree they have kicked us in the balls many times, but we will come good with a manager with experience who knows how to organise a team and play them in their proper positions .Then we will take the upper hand over the Trumpets!

    Grow a pair Doddie. They are just winding you up. Honest. If they think Hibs are the biggest joke in Scottish fitba they are the deluded ones.Hearts win not win the cup. They wont get past the semi stage. That is not delusion but based on their results so far this season.

    Really? Winding me up? Golly, I'd never have thought of that. So we just smile and enjoy the situation?

    Maybe you should listen to what some of the other teams' supporters are saying, or think about how THEY see Hibs.

    Or even consider how totally silly it appears when supporters of a club that has the recent past record of Hibernian under Farmer and Petrie start getting funny at other teams' expense.

    Or look forward to the same complacent SFA/SPFL suit who appoiny=ted the last five pretty well consistently unsuccessful managers appoints our next one. I can't wait to find out who it is, and listen to Petrie and his sycophants explaining how THIS time, FINALLY, they've made the right choice.

    Please explain to me the positive and optimistic aspects of the situation at ER right now.

    I must have missed them in all the excitement of our latest Cup triumph.
