Well done Edinburgh City

***Diclonius*** · 14-05-2016 03:50 PM

Just been promoted to League Two after relegating perennial losers East Stirlingshire. Congratulations, we now have a third Edinburgh team in the SPFL.

Just one division separates us

Wow, well done Edinburgh City. Great news for them.

I wonder if they can do an ICT/Ross County and make it up the leagues within next 10 years.?

Ehh, no?

**Nakedmanoncrack** · 14-05-2016 03:52 PM

Wonder how long it will be until they overtake us in same way as previously non league teams from Inverness & Dingwall have done in a short time.

Is it really good news for hibs. All I see is a club on our patch possibly taking interest and spectators away!

Only 50 quid for a season ticket

Could effect away attendances if city are at home, doubt it though

***Diclonius*** · 14-05-2016 04:01 PM

Wow, thought I'd started a positive non-Hibs thread on here. Never mind.

Maybe you should read the forum for a wee bit longer then.

As a Falkirk resident, it's a bit sad to see East Stirlingshire demoted to the Lowland League but I'm happy that the pyramid system is in place.

Teams from the Lowland and Highland Leagues deserve to have a chance of progression.

Exactly. E.Stirlingshire once went on a 5 year spell of continuously finishing bottom and no demotion came with it

About time there were consequences.

For all those doom merchants, Meadowbank thistle were around in the eighties and they never took fans off us.

***Diclonius*** · 14-05-2016 04:17 PM

There is absolutely no one who would stop supporting Hibs to support Edinburgh City.

Maybe in in ten years time if they somehow manage to be in the same league as us then kids might opt to go see them instead, but I doubt it.

We're in the champ - league 1 - they're in league 2.

That league 1 in there is the one division that seperates us...

**aussie_hibee** · 14-05-2016 04:47 PM

My best mates are involved in the coaching set up and I've been lucky enough to be allowed to train with them whenever I'm back on holiday. Absolutely fantastic bunch of lads and I'm over the moon for them.

**Sir David Gray** · 14-05-2016 04:52 PM

Maybe we'll get to play them in the Petrofac Cup next year.

***Hibernia&Alba*** · 14-05-2016 04:52 PM

Pleased for them, congratulations.

I can't believe you've had to explain that.

I don't think anyone thinks like that when talking about how many divisions separate teams. I've never heard anyone, on the TV or radio describe it that way.

It's odd that it's been made to sound worse as far as hibs are concerned.

**hibsmad** · 14-05-2016 04:59 PM

Do people seriously think that we will lose fans based on this??

If anyone goes to see Edinburgh City rather than Hibs then they are not Hibs fans and can **** right off!

It will have no noticeable affect on our attendances.

Didnt need to explain anything, no one ever says it like that, the original poster is trying to get a reaction again and if we are going to describe it like that then there is nothing seperating us and the premier league

How would it normally be described? To you what does one division between us mean?

I would say 2 divisions below, would never say aww there is only one division between us

I've been watching football for 35 years and never heard of teams that are in tier two and four being described as "having one division that separates" them.

Anyone saying that on match of the day would get corrected. Saying that, you might get someone being really anal and saying it like that to try and poke fun at a team they don't like.
