Scotty CTA Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Hibernian's very important 3 points at home v the defending Champions has moved them up the table from 8th all the way to... erm... well... 8th. Good job, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight red. A cowards challenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoonTheSlope Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) Today was the first time I’d been to a Hibs game without any enthusiasm whatsoever since the final in 2016 I thought today was a combination of Hibs being outstanding and Celtc being absolutely shite. Hibs were pressing, chasing and winning the ball back today which has been lacking for months Its a pity Vykintas Slivka only seems to put a shift in against Rangers and Celtc as that’s when he shows how much quality he has, yet he seems to do fuck all against the other 10 teams in the league GGTTH!

If Rod Stewart (who has a Scottish father) is a "kidon scotsman" what does that make those idiots in Ulster you love who regard themselves as Scots because their Great-great-great-great-great-great-great granny and granda came from here ?

Tartan_McCole Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) That wouldn't happen to coincide with Celtic stepping up to the mark and getting a great manager, would it? You could see there was going to be an influx of people coming back the moment you seen the amount of people that turned up to welcome Rodgers appointment. Club spend money on the upkeep of the team and more fans turn up; that can't be a new thing.

Defo the Rodgers effect to some extent but the only domestic game that's truly full at Parkhead is when you play Rangers. For example you were playing the league leaders the other week and apart from the standing section (fair play to them they never leave early and always turn up in comparison) there were plenty of gaps in the stadium (even more after 80 mins)T hink the attendance was given as 58,000 last week against us but it was more like 50,000 at a push. Rodgers being there and the team winning everything is defo a factor but there's no denying the lure of the old firm has sold season tickets too. Rodgers being there has defo boasted your away attendances though as they've more than doubled at RP from the Delia seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't deny that there will be some folk who are coming back for the Old Firm reason, would be daft to deny otherwise. I probably wouldn't be quite pushing it to 50/50 though, but that can't really be argued one way or another by either of us. I'd imagine it wasn't as full as Rangers, and Aberdeen/Hearts, would be is probably down to the fact it was Kilmarnock. Without wanting to sound like an arsehole (I'm probably failing), despite the fact you were the league leaders at the time, it was still a game v Kilmarnock. Christmas/New Year always sees attendances drop off to an extent as well. I'd imagine that's bound to be similar at other grounds? Perhaps that's the Irish factor? Rodgers has absolutely given the club the boost it needed though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our attendances always seem to go up in December for some reason. That said, it was just 4,700 on Saturday with 200 Dundee fans but it was a horrendous day. I get what you're saying about it being against Killie but surely you go to see your team and not base it on the opposition.

You would think so, but it's not always the case. If some people have a season book and can maybe only commit to one or two a month then they're always going to prioritise games. Especially around this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
