Hibs have a history of players who do idiotic things. Pretty sure Gary O'Connor and Derek Riordan from the top of my head have previous.

Chris Kamara, 4 years ago today:



Also, on 44secs, there's a pretty great scoreline in League One Smiley

"I don't know Geoff, has there?"

"I saw him go off but I thought they were bringing a Sub on Geoff!"

Classic Kammy...

Idiotic things? Singing about the potential demise of a local rival? Who cares, it's about football, not life or death.

Fair play to Leigh Griffiths, a life long hi-bee, professional footballer, who hasn't forgotten his roots. Good on him.

That said Hibs are a disgrace ATM, awful team.

I presume Bob was referring to his numerous run ins with law. Assault, shoplifting, racist tweets, etc

Fair enough, can't we concentrate on his good attributes, like the semi final screamer and his choice of songs though? Always focus on the negative those jambos ;-)

And lots of negatives to focus on too Jan!

Hibs will miss Hearts next season as well with crowds dwindling at ER. Not good for football in Edinburgh at the moment!

Good chance that Hibs could go down at this rate. Pat's not changed much results wise since taking over.  So the Embra derby could still be on next year. Would be the most interesting division in Scotland next year if that did happen.

He sounds like a sensible PDC, or at least one who knows how to deal with people.

Probably a good place to mention it but I noticed that the vote for the Hull name change was passed with 63% against, so that means that there was 37% at the FA / FL meeting that were happy for Hull to be allowed to change their name, that in itself is worrying.

Of the 5000 Hull season ticket holders balloted, 2,565 voted for the change, 48 less voted against. That's more worrying.

Though in fairness 9000 couldn't be fucked to vote, so it only a majority in a union strike ballot sense Wink

Most shocking is that they only have 5000 season ticket holders.

They actually have 15,000 but only 5000 replied.

Remember going to their old place, first game of the season and we gave a debut to Shay Given.

They've certainly gone places.

Wasn't it Hull that once pretty much had the gates to their ground locked due to their debt situation, or is my Saint and Greavsie memory playing tricks.

Middlesboro did....they had to play the first game of the season at Victoria Road, Hartlepool.  They had a team full of Garys, + Melksahm's finest Archie Stephens....might have had Bruce Rioch as manager.
