    HIBSED it

    After my Hertz friend throwing this line away again most recently, got me thinking and realising if Tynecastle's finest were to go to the wire and lose last day to Raith, that would be the third time I am aware of them capitulating at the final hurdle..ouch We totally Hibsed it five years ago right enough..the best thing was when JM told the listening public post match interview

    It was used recently by a behind the times columnist in the dying print media. Probably trying to get a reaction. I don't remember his name and didn't read his whole column so it didn't work.

    The term should have been consigned to the bin with the Scottish cup win but it is trotted out by people that don't understand the origin of the term or the significance of that win.

    Tedious term used by insignificant pundits.

    A jambo friend of mine used this term last week on a golf course when he screwed up a shot (again). I politely referred him to Brora / relegation / failure of legal challenges and manager / player signing policies. He was very quite after that.
    I used to simply ignore the ignorance - too old and grumpy to continue to do that...

    Good list BH. And such recent stuff. The list could be so spectacularly lengthy too 👍🏻

    Didn't even have to mention the creditors list, their very own List of Shame.

    I've never understood quite why we get so much scrutiny for the amount of silverware that we've won in recent years.

    For the most part of that Aberdeen and Hearts have had much bigger wages budgets.

    For that Aberdeen have a tired and tatty stadium, eye bleeding hoofball and the grand total of one league cup.

    Hearts have two relegations, two Scottish cups, embarrasing defeats to Brora, an incomplete stand, a team of washed up journeymen and a list of stiffed creditors as long as your arm. It nearly broke them.

    We've got a good stadium, a good squad with young talent, a league cup, a Scottish cup and a bright future. We're producing international level players and are third in the league.

    'Hibsed it' is such a myth. We punch at our weight without a lot of the crap that came with it for both Aberdeen and Hearts. We're a well run club.


    Do you think your security can keep you in purity, you will not shake us off above or below. Scottish friction, Scottish fiction

    😀

    I'd have said "What's the Jambo squealing about now?" or "I suppose that was Doncaster's fault."

    That along with the 1-5 safety blankey gets an odd airing by my Jambo chums but they don’t like getting it back.

    I have used 2 very simple lines

    The Lady Haig Poppy Fund

    MacCraes Battalion Charity

    This is normally followed by

    It’s in the past so you cannot bring that up blah blah blah...

    In the last week however I have used this

    Brora’d it.

    They all think they are so superior with this big team pish but let’s face it if big teams have the smallest capacity stadium in the city, not the last Edinburgh Team to win a major trophy, haven’t won the league cup for 58 years and counting, are in a lower league and were put out of the Scottish cup by a highland league team then they are a big team!

    After reading this thread, I am away to watch that famous film about a successful surprise attack on an arrogant, bigger foe - Brora, Brora, Brora

    It would be the third time yeah but they're not going to blow an (at least) 8 point lead with 4 games to go.

    Only supporters with a certain hue have ever tried to make that a thing. And to say they failed would suggest they jambottled that too

    You got called out on the Ofir to Celtic thread, and now this mince?

    You cant even get the Turnbull quote right, which tells me quite a lot about you.

    I personally just think the OP is a bit over eager to start threads and is an enthusiastic newbie, as opposed to anything more sinister.

    I could be wrong though...

    the boy is obviously on a roll.

    Reminds me of the Hogmanay when they first moved it to Princes st. Mental crush as they’d not managed the crowds and everyone converged at the bottom of the Mound.

    Anyway this guy got up on top of the roof of the toilets for a better view. Polis ask him to come down- he cups his ear preventing not to hear. Not coming down. Impasse ensues.

    Polis make their way up and at the last minute the boy dives into the crowd but he hadn’t accounted for people anticipating this abs moving out the way it was like the parting of the Red Sea. Boy bit concrete but managed to hobble away whilst the Polis just shook their heads - just let em knock themselves out.

    I’m minded to agree.

    Starting new threads like this is not cool.

    The OP needs to give it a rest imo.

    Either a Hibs depressive or more Jambo trolling. Give it a rest.
