    Only the second game of the season for me so super looking forward to it. The other match was the St Mirren game so Im n a roll

    Staying over and derby win definitely makes the beer taste so much better post match.

    We'll win on Sunday.

    If I had a season ticket my thinking about Sunday would likely be as follows:

    • I've made my commitment to the club clear by investing in a season ticket so I've effectively already paid for Sunday's game
    • On current form I get no enjoyment from watching Hibs and the prospect of attending on Sunday would feel like a chore rather than a pleasure
    • I will therefore choose to do something more enjoyable with my Sunday


    Speaking as an older supporter, I am beyond the days of attending through thick and thin in the belief it made me a better fan. Circumstances dictate that I can't go every week even if I wanted to, but the bottom line for me is that I just don't enjoy it at present. Hearts may be seriously guff, but there's no evidence that we're capable of beating anyone at the moment and I just haven't got the willpower/mental stamina, call it what you will, to sit through what is likely to be a turgid derby in the hope that we might take something from it.
    I’ve entered a deep depression reading this.

    Also speaking as an older supporter I never go to a derby for the pretty football and it would be difficult to suggest I go to them to enjoy them, I am pretty much a nervous wreck from start to finish. However, even in the ****test of seasons, they are the games with the atmosphere, drama and potential that make them not worth missing.

    Your choice but I would urge you to reconsider.

    I'm going out early to get pished and the football will take care of itself. I've no control over it.

    Earlier in the week I was as apathetic as I can remember about a Derby. As the week has ticked along and the deeply ingrained arrogance of Hearts fans starts to poke through I find myself getting more up for it. No matter what the situation I would never say a Derby is a 'win win'. We have to beat them every time we play them as far as I'm concerned. If we win and turn the corner then great, if we win and continue to stumble along PH will go sooner rather than later anyway. There is no upside to losing.

    For 90 minutes I love the atmosphere that borders on toxic. Football is tribal and the Derby is the epitome of that. Get along, support your team focus on nothing but willing us to beat that mob for 90 minutes.

    Social media 100% has an impact. I don't think some people realise the constant negativity works its way to the ground. Its weird though, non of my mates are anywhere near as negative as people on here or FB etc.
    Negative people love to moan and drag others down to their level. A lot of it is attention seeking and social media gives them a platform.

    It's far easier to find negatives than positives. Human nature. You're bang on though.

    You know things are getting desperate when we're not counting 'executive seats' on the dot count thread. They're empty seats no??

    Execs going well with just over 100 left. We will have sell out by kick off. C'mon the Hibs.

    Usual irrational optimism creeping in all be it later than usual.

    Regardless of turmoil, derby day is what it's all about! Best games of the season! I wouldn't care if we were 8th and they were 9th and it was the last game of the season with nothing to play for, the win would mean the exact same to me!

    Come the Hibees!!

    Is it the case that you can only buy a FF Lower adult ticket if you have a child as part of group?
