    We're third in the league, on a great run with Europe a real possibility.

    Why is their flag still upside down?

    Apart from seeking relevance and attention, I mean.

    Because we've been good since it went upside down?

    I've worn the same clothes at every game I have been to on this unbeaten run. I am not superstitious except when it comes to football.

    Is there a tune with that, or do we just hum along?

    Thank you for your service.

    They can't turn the banner round now. IMO

    There was reference on the matchday thread to them signing some naughty songs from a poster that was sitting in the FFL this afternoon

    Was this heard throughout the stadium or just locally behind the goals?

    Sad if we are signing songs that have nothing to do with football

    The drum was definitely there today but they did appear lower in numbers and a bit flatter than usual. Maybe something to do with the daft handbag fight that broke out amongst them.

    I certainly couldn't hear it in section 44. But, I can't hear much. I suspect it was random shouting rather than songs

    If you are collecting money surely you would want to publicise it as much as possible?
    Yeah you’re also right.

    Didn’t appear to be any flags from what I remember. Definitely heard the drums but didn’t see the handbags. Just like me like the normal number to me mind you.

    Yeah, definitely no flags. Made a pleasant change being able to see the pitch for the whole 90 mins! 🇳🇬

    I was in the Terrace Experience yesterday rather than my usual seat and a bit oddly Block 7 appear a lot quieter from there than they do when I'm in the FFU. Unrelated but I was also surprised how many people choose to sit in the standing section, particularly the side sections. I would say it was well over 50% and probably closer to 75% sitting in the section in front of me. Some people were even standing on the stairs and up the back to avoid blocking the views of people sitting. Each to their own but it seems odd to buy a ticket in a standing area then sit for the whole game. Maybe standing at the football is one of those things that is more popular in people's heads, mine included, than in reality?

    Back to Block7 I think you'd have to be trying too hard to find any negative in them either helping with the bucket collection or publicising the fact they have done so.

    I stand directly in front of Terrace experience and you're that that most sit in the end section of the 'standing area'. I've even seen arguements with non regulars telling folk to sit down coz they can't see.

    Perhaps your referring to my post, it's weird, I normally sit in the East but got the BTG package for the day. The song they sing is along the lines of

    Ole ole oh ah, Erin Go Bragh, up the RA, FTQ, Hibs are a Catholic team.

    I know the tune because I hear it nealy every week but can't make it out from my usual seat but it's really clear what they are singing from the FF, especially the guy with the megaphone. It's really disapointing. They got a lot of credit for displays and that but this outweighs any good work they have done if that's the sort of thing they sing. I'm going to report it to the club tomorrow. It's not a good look, especially if you bring guests along to enjoy the day in BTG.

    Don't get me wrong, I have been a STH for a long time, I enjoy an atmosphere and don't expect it to be PG but sectarian/bigotry is way across the line.

    Always baffled me that there’s a boy who sits and watches the rest of block 7 with his back to the game and not once turns round 🤣

    If it’s the guy with the megaphone he never watches the game and wasn’t very happy yesterday because not everyone was doing as he said.

    “You’re sitting in the singing section so fu*#*ng sing” was one of his favourite shouts yesterday, I wish he could hear some of the replies to him from the FF upper.

    There was noticeable less drum yesterday, still not as good as no drum but a slight improvement anyway, we live in hope that one day they might realise we can’t hear them singing over the drum, there’s just not enough of them to drown it out.

    Watching Sportscene last night and for the first time I took a bit of notice when Block 7 were on camera, the thing that struck me was the majority all seemed like primary school children on an organised day trip, quite strange.

    Close...... Oh ally ally ooh ah, oh ally ally ooh ahh, Erin go brag, the pride of Edinburgh, we are boys in green, the only team for me.

    Some of the young team add in the ftq bit, but the rest has been widely sung at the past few away games.

    That's what I thought the lyrics were as well albeit the FTQ add on seems pretty widespread.

    I suppose it's not uncommon for there to be two versions of certain songs but your version is the only one I have heard at games.

    100% Not what I heard yesterday. Not saying your wrong in terms of what generally they sing but not what I heard.

    I am one of those that chose to sit in the standing section Im not able to stand for the full 90 nor am am I able to sit for a full 90 and it's genuinely been amazing for myself in terms of dealing with my pain having the option of being able to do this.
