You are quite rightly not allowed to shout rascist, sectarian (unless you are OF!) or homophobic abuse at folk.
So, it is, thankfully, already dictated by society what you can and can't shout. And also what is acceptable evolves.
The point is what the folk around me are doing is not appropriate, they are just not reading the room that everyone else thinks they are an erse.

Angry little men who are taking out their life troubles on some teenagers and 20 year olds.

Aye, It's the fans fault again for another awful performance.
The standards at Hibs need to rise. The acceptance of mediocrity is a reason why we'll always get that, until a better mentality is installed at the club.

I get that fans want to vent frustration and the likes but this has taken on a whole new level in the last few years. Some of the abuse aimed at the players is disgusting, relentless and constant regardless of how they are playing, and there seems to be more and more of our (dwindling) support joining in.
Maloneys been in the door five minutes and he’s already being crucified in some social media quarters and from the stands. It’s ridiculous. The old guy and his son sat behind me last night literally had nothing good to say about any player barring mueller. They slated near enough everyone constantly. The absolute negativity and abuse they gave joe Newell, who I thought was very good at times last night, was utterly shameful at times.
Have we become the best team in the world in recent years and as we are not reaching the top with every kick of the ball we are merited in slagging, criticising and abusing the players constantly. No we’ve not and we shouldn’t be. I know it’s probably inherent at most clubs but if there was a league table for moaning fans we would be right up there challenging. Then the fans would moan if we didn’t win that as well.
I feel for some of our players and the crap that’s hurled at them. New manager, trying to teach old dogs new tricks overnight and we can’t just get behind it fully. It can be hard being a Hibby but there will be times when it can be easy and wonderful. Not for some fans though obviously

There has never in my lifetime been an acceptance of mediocrity within the club.
That criticism comes from folk too divorced from reality to see that the club struggles its best against some opponents with far greater resources.
That "acceptance of mediocrity" is a worthless soundbite dreamed up by those who need something to moan about.

Loathe to criticise any fans who actually bothered to go to the game last night, the football served up was pretty horrendous.

Didnt sit in my normal seat last night and tried somewhere else for a change. 3 lads behind me moaned from the first minute, not shouting but they had nothing good to say. I moved after about 10 mins. I thought it was quite a hard watch at times last night and the slow patient build does nothing to improve the atmosphere. The few times we injected a bit of pace and got forward quicker the crowd lifted. I agree a lot of the booing/abuse it totally over the top but i fear nothing will change with this style of football. You can only imagine the reaction of the crowd if we are 1 down to hertz with 10 mins to go and we are passing the ball around/backwards with no urgency.

Why do you people believe that helps? What does it achieve?
Would a more supportive environment help the team be less mediocre? I’m thinking it maybe would. Strange that in the one game this season where the team got loud encouragement from start to finish that they managed to hump Rangers at Hampden….

I know exactly what you mean, there are 4 or 5 guys that sit behind me in the East Stand and they generally spend the entire 90 mins screaming abuse at the players or the Ref.
And weirdly it's not as if the players/Ref can actually hear them anyway! Clearly they are just not getting their hole at home and need to take out their frustrations at someone.

Fans shouting abuse at players! Oh the poor wee lambs.
Bollox thread this is!
We should be more concerned about the lack of fans at Easter Road.
We could be down to 6000 season ticket holders next season.
It doesn't look good 😕

If you read Eddie Turnbull and Lawrie Reilly's autobiographies the FF, and in particular those two players, were getting abused back in the 50s when things didn't go well!
The abuse the likes of Benny Brazil and Brian Hamilton got began before they got on the pitch.
It's not a thing particular to Hibs, I was at Old Trafford twenty years ago and couldn't believe a guy behind me slaughtering Ryan Giggs for 90 minutes.
For a lot of people Hibs, and every other football club, is the wife/partner/boss/workmate they cant shout at and Hibs are the substitute vehicle for venting all their anger. It's not right but it's always been this way.

Missed most of the first half but heard the last 10 mins of it on the radio
One of the pundits said "You can see the style SM is trying to bring to Hibs and fans will love the football the team plays when they're winning but they will hate it when they're losing because scottish football needs a massive culture reboot"
or words to that effect. And they were spot on, a lot of fans WANT the club to play football (and this isnt specific to Hibs, its the same in most grounds including national stadium), but when players choose to try and play out of trouble the fans are on their back to "get rid of it". Or when we make a backward pass the groans start up
It's not basketball we're playing, there's no need to just get it forward as fast as we can without method. Of course there's a balance and it has to be leading to something but we as a nation need to embrace keeping the ball on the ground and the odd risk when passing out from the back

That you need to scream at him to let him know it's gone out?
What does screaming abuse achieve other than making you feel like a big man?

This thread is nothing short of embarrassing, what do you want people to do, sit on their hands the entire game? Or praise the gallant effort of the boys for falling over the finish line with a 1-0 victory against Cove Rangers in extra time… Do me a favour

Going anywhere and shouting abuse at people is weird.
A reactive "ffs that was mince" is natural. But standing up and shouting "you're pish go f yourself" is not.
One is fine, one shows maybe you need to reevaluate tbh.
