    but but we won 5-1 though!

    The comfort blankets are out for the jambos desperately trying to cling onto the financial cheating glory years but penny has or is at least starting to drop for quite a lot of them. The 5-1 game, whilst it will always be a dark day in our history and a bad memory, doesn't bother me anymore. Done, over it. Their win was tainted and paid for with other people money, money they will never see again. Even last night they didn't even bother with their 5-1 songs. A few flashed the hand gestures to try make themselves feel better but inside they know that it doesn't bother us anymore.

    Now that they have to live within their means like everybody else (well maybe not their Govan pals) the reality is setting in that they aren't the "big team", they aren't the big huge footballing Goliath they thought they were. They have never been the same in derbies since that day. They used to go in expecting to win, anything less was unacceptable but since 2012 they seemed to have lost that and had a sort of "awck but we won 5-1" attitude. They have hid behind it and rested on their laurels.

    Since they "killed us" that day we have gone on to knock them out the SC 3 times, gone onto win it, been in 3 cup finals, been to Europe, had the highest attendances in Edinburgh including at their own stadium and had a far better derby record (they haven't beat us since 2014). I dont know about you but i love being "dead as a club" haha

    What really surprises me is that on KB their total capitulation is screaming out. There's no hiding behind 5-1 or other 'past results' and big team taunting. Where is their seethe? It's all introspection about their inadequacies from top to bottom. It kind of spoils our fun. Maybe we've gone too far this time.

    The current Hearts look like the Hibs side under Fenlon. Full of loanees and journeymen who dont give a flying ****.. At the comfort blanket final do you honestly thing Tom Soares and Mal Donachy wanted to win as much as Ian Black and Skatcel? It still rankles that a dyed in the wool Hibby like Ian Murray couldnt even get on the bench while you had these impostors in the team

    One of the absolute worst hibs teams in recent times against a team filled with players they couldn't afford.


    Just seen some roaster on facebook giving it "wouldn't swap the last few years for 5-1, we are still too big to be the wee team"

    This was a grown man as well

    Fine by me, live off 5-1 as much as you want!

    On the way to the game a middle aged Hearts fan was staggering down Easter Road one his own singing "we only won 5-1" ... well that's right. They couldn't for example score 6 or 7 against us!

    I got over that game a few days later.

    Took the words right out of my mouth. Last night they didn't sing one song about 5-1 other than one or two clueless folk still doing their hand gestures which just got laughed at.

    Exactly how I see it right now. The tables have turned with the difference that we pay our bills.

    Signing half a team in a transfer window (and a January one at that) in my opinion isn't something to get excited about. It's a big concern that your club has lost its way and don't really know what they're doing.
