Always discussing various size of support --------thought I would at Twitter an see the number of followers for the various main clubs. Here is top ten.
Tic= 290k
Huns=190k
Sheep=44.6k
Vermin=40.8k
Hibees=33.9k
Arabs=27.6k
1986=19.2k
Caley=16.3k (surprise)
Perth Sts =16.3k
On this basis we are the 5th biggest supported team in Scotland. What do we think ? Considering the past few years I don't think that is too bad !!!

You're basing these numbers off of....Twitter?!
I don't even use Twitter, as don't many other Hibee friends I know.

ICT get a big following due to the boy that does their Twitter.

Saw thread title and assumed it was because we`re playing Morton tomorrow . Until only a few years ago they had a good support ( bigger than at least 4 of the Premiership teams now ) and I hope they help our funds by having at least 1000 at ER tomorrow .

Yams hate to say it have loads more fans than the sheep. But twitters no measure of a support. The sheeps Twitter had less followers than Hibs up until they won a cup then they crawled out the woodwork. ICT account is banter I follow that for a laughLast edited by Stokesy's on fire; 14-08-2015 at 09:22 PM.

Jeez folks lighten up !!! I was only looking at Twitter to compare interest in our major clubs to see how we stood up and as in every club there will be supporters who havnae a clue what
social media is !!!
Some posters on here awfy sensitive nowadays. :-)))

I would say those Twitter figures are a pretty accurate reflection of actual support size. I would possibly swap Aberdeen & Hearts and definitely swap St Johnstone and ICT, other than that, spot on. Where are Motherwell, Killie, Partick & Hamilton?

Is it true most tweeters are only able to use one hand?

The only numbers that really matter are the numbers passing through the turnstiles.

Nowadays even having a big support can only take you so far.
I'd hazard a guess that Hibs are as big a team as Swansea -in terms of core support- and check the difference in resources
