    Hearts continue to whinge about anything they can!

    I saw something similar from the Community Foundation too.

    leaving politics out of football would be good

    I agree.

    That's not politics though.

    Impossible and pointless.

    People only tend to say this when they disagree with the political point being made.

    Could you explain how Black Lives matters is political?

    Just as a wee PSA: There is a thread about BLM, the protests and the police on the Holy Ground - so if it's an issue you feel strongly about or have an interest in, I'd encourage you to get involved there.

    For this thread, please keep it to discussing Hibs' Tweet and show of support. Thank you. 🇳🇬

    I was personally glad to see Hibs make a statement too. We've had plenty of BAME players give their all for us. 👏

    A good tweet from hibs, and something I am glad to see we are supporting.

    I am not sure the point scoring about hearts is appropriate, and takes away from the important message being put forward.

    Top marks from Hibs.

    Considering the prejudice that our founders must have faced in 19th Century Scotland it’s right and proper that we as a club call out all forms of bigotry.

    Waiting to see if The The Rangers make a statement?

    Exactly, its human decency towards fellow man.

    A great thread on the subject here

    https://twitter.com/clairewillett/st...94029498675200

    Obviously it is based on the US, but you can certainly imagine similar things happening to the Irish here around the time of our foundation.

    I’m going to avoid that just in case we have any fans posting anything against BLM

    Agreed.


    Hearts have also made similar tweets.

    You're right, of course, it was as much about the relative importance of the various issues around football at the moment.

    Only one top flight club in Scotland who didn't. No prizes for guessing, unfortunately.

    Strange post as you are the only one to mention politics!

    Well done Hibs.

    Russell Latapy and Marvin Bartley. Perhaps the two finest political moves Hibs ever made?

    Although he did't play much always thought Craig Rocastle was warmly welcomed by us, think he appreciated that.
