Hearts fans at end

[dp00]

Tells you everything you need to know... They knew they got lucky

[sleeping giant]

Lucky again eh? Who would have guessed ?
I am sick to the back teeth talking about luck.

[Sir David Gray]

Lucky doesn't come even remotely close to accurately describe Hearts in derby games.

[PeterboroHibee]

Id say it was less to do with their luck than our own stupidity. At home, 1-0 up against 10 men, and we sit back and invite the pressure on to us... In that situation Im looking for composure and a bit of ruthlessness from the players and manager.

[green day]

Would we have celebrated less?

We need to focus less on them and dwell on the positives for us - of which there are many.

[frazeHFC]

So jammy. For once in a derby we thoroughly deserved to win, and never threw it away as such. Took a wondergoal. Absolutely gutted.

Aye, we sat too deep and gave them too much space. Plus our strikers had to do better

[California-Hibs]

They acted like that because they know to a man that we pumped them all over the pitch and they got incredibly lucky not to be exiting with a 1-0 full time score line.

[Dashing Bob S]

Don't think they got lucky at all. They are on a decent run and the confidence that engenders encouraged them to dig deep with 10 men, and their player to try an outlandish strike that 49 out of 50 times would have ended in nothing. A mid table side short on confidence would have crumbled and their player would never have felt confident enough to strike the ball so cleanly and with such conviction.

I'm disappointed that we didn't get all three points, but we defended too deeply against 10 men, putting on pace and trying to hit them on the break. Nothing wrong with those tactics, they either work or they don't. In this case they rebounded on us. But you make that call, uncertain of the outcome. Stubbs was confident and thoughtful in making that decision, and better luck next time.

I was impressed with Hibs today, the improvement is continuing. Rather than moan about not winning a derby, I think we should be looking to get behind the team. I'm very encouraged by our recent form.

[Pretty Boy]

If we had converted our possession and chances to goals then that strike wouldn't have mattered a jot.

We played well for 70 minutes today but the same failing that has cost us continually this season did so again.

It wasn't luck, we cut our own throats again.

[Weststandwanab]

DB, you sound like a board member already !

But I think you are spot on !

[Pete]

Hearts fans sarcastically shouting "hoof" when our keeper launched the ball. You couldn't make it up.

All they have are the two black boys in midfield. The rest of them are utter garbage.

They got out of jail again but we've more than enough to do them should we meet in the play offs.

[.Sean.]

You make your own luck. We as good as bet ourselves. It certainly feels like a loss.

Hearts fans were vermin at the end but they were vermin at the start aswell

They were giving it the 'we are ra people'. Waving union jacks and generally being ****. The likeness to their big cousins in the west is astounding.

[hibsbollah]

They are the quietest fans in Scotland unless theyre winning. Not a peep from them till the 90th minute.

Both of the above. Been down this road so many times before.

After all these years you would think I'd be used to it by now, but today it was simply ridiculous that Hibs didn't win this match. Absolutely sickened.

The result will go down in the record books as another draw. Another derby that Hibs should have won by a country mile, but didn't.

[sh00byd00]

To be fair to the Hearts players, their heads didn't go down once they were a goal and a man down. I kinda agree with someone further up, there was nothing lucky about it. These things happen when a team on the park still thinks they can get something out of the game. It was a sickner, but like they say, you play to the final whistle.

Yeah, we squandered a load of chances and invited them onto us late on when we should have finished the job. A great missed opportunity. It's all very well playing them off the park for long spells but they've left with a point which they scarcely deserved.
Have to say though if that was a shot from one of ours that hit the bar from that distance it would've stayed out.

[sbell1875]

People can say we were sat too deep against 10 men but you need to remember they didn't change shape after the red.

They barely threatened the entire match so I'd say we got it almost 100% spot on tactically. The goal you simply can't legislate for. The boy has smashed it as hard as he could from 40 yards and its went in. On another day it would have belted on of the "specimens" in the crowd.

Tend to agree but there were loads of positives as well .However when you bring Harris kennedy and Stanton on none of whom have featured that much for first team they stuggle to hit the ground running and it was like we gave them back the ascendancy when all we had to do was keep composed and get the ball out wide and let Harris and kennedy run at them into the corners . Farid did it to perfection against Cowdenbeath ,and we held out comfortably but we were so disjointed after the subs ,Stanton struggled to get to a man and break up play and Harris just struggled full stop .
As I say there were lots of positives ,but have to agree we invited them on to us ,and they had nothing to loose .It does get frustrating when we can't see games out we deserve to win .

Absolutely agree there were lots of positives, and also I made that point too about composure after the match.

As a team, we just seem to lack that composure and know how (streetwise if you like) to see the game out. Especially disappointing as it was against 10 men.

Bang on....you make your own luck. We looked like we went down to 10....then we did by bringing on wee Harris. Cant for the life of me understand that substitution....the composure left the park when Allan was hooked.....

Yup and not closing down when they were on our half.
