Thread: Crowd

    Crowd

    See the crowd was only around 13k given that there would have been at least 3k hearts fans that's a poor turn out for a derby where we had a genuine chance of winning

    It was a brutal crowd today. Full marks to those that went and helped generate some atmosphere.

    Piss poor but it was their loss.

    Good performance and a great win and they missed it.

    I was hoping we'd get around 15K, despite prices, cup semi, game on TV etc. Disappointing.

    The team deserved a better turnout today. There was absolutely no way the Yams were more "up for it" than Hibs.

    Hopefully, that mentality is now what we have rather than them.

    Horrendous crowd but great atmoshpere. Fair play to all who went and to the sect 43 boys

    Social media full of hibees going nuts about today and declarations of supporting us evermore. Just wish more of these guys went to the games.

    This is a team worth watching and more need to start making an effort to come along.

    Unless it was corrected at a different time, I heard 13,000 odds.

    Think he said "Thirteen" which sounded like "Fifteen"
    This is how it feels

    If you'd read quite a few of the posts on here in the days leading up to the game you'd have known we had no chance of winning today. No point going along to see the gunts having their party and rubbing our noses in it. A good turnout considering that.

    Horrendous crowd but they will be the people regretting not going today, currently in the office on Easter road still looking for "the party".

    Our section in the east was emptier than last week vs QOTS.....bizarre all things considered.

    However well done to all that could make it today...well worth it.

    Can folk at least turn out to support the team in the play offs?

    Well done to the players for being up for it, it must have been demoralising to run out and see such a poor turnout.

    Well done to the ones who did go

    The stay aways missed a great day...not sure about the so called "party" going on in the gunts end which many gave as a reason for staying away earlier this week??

    Very poor turnout...it must be worrying for the club that we are not generating more regulars...

    There will be 15K plus next week. The play-off against Hamilton saw the biggest turn out of Hibs fans at Easter Road in 35 years. If we keep winning the fans will come back.

    Still ill with the flu. Gutted that I missed it today

    I did ask Big Frank to give them a cheer for me though

    Couldn't make it as I have to pick and choose my games and 28 this week v 15 next is difficult to justify. Would have had to have missed my sons 5th birthday party too.

    Shame we couldn't get a bigger crowd, but I'm sure quite a few folk would have done the same as me. (The money bit, not the party bit)

    Crowd was poor, stay aways lose out today as that was worth every penny. Win next Sat & the stay aways will be calling in favours for a final ticket no doubt.

    ...and it cost £28, was on the telly, and people were sick of not enjoying games against them. So maybe not terribly surprising, all said and done. Maybe board needs to think seriously about price structure for these tv games.

    I hope the stay away fans with no valid reason were devastated they missed it. If they were not, I'd say their time for properly (note properly) supporting hibs is over. Which is ashame as we need all the fans we can get.

    Regardless of the poor numbers, the fans that did go deserve credit, we were still in good voice and good spirit and encouraging the team. I hope today encourages the few refuse to go back to ER to think again about how capable our team are in these games.

    Had we beaten The Rangers, Raith and QOTS the crowd would have been bigger. Long standing issues about Sunday footie, TV coverage, kick-offs times and also price, cannot be ignored either.

    yeah i was disappointed at the crowd but to be fair, its been like that most of this season! a few years of playing mediocre has taken its effect and i don't know what it will take to pull the punters back
