not necessarily he just needs to fire the manager. The DOF might not come under real scrutiny till 2/3 managers in and that will be months
FTFY, given it's Hibs we're talking about.

We both have drawn very few games this season: 7 for us, 6 for Hearts. But if ever a game had honourable 1-1 draw written all over it, this one did.
Are Hearts fans going through in their usual decent numbers or is the evening KO/dead rubberiness of it all killing that off?
I'm giving this one a miss, and so are all but a couple of the guys we go to away games with. I'd be happy with 1-1 tbh.

It would be a more accurate statement to say that every club has an element of its fan base that will prioritise success on the pitch over just about anything else.
This is true, though I think most would draw the line at the driving force behind the Final Solution and the architect behind the 9/11 bombings

That's not what you said. You said, in so many words, that every club would hire literally the worst people in the world and all fans would celebrate if it meant they'd win a league title.
It's ok - give him a minute and he'll say something different.

All of the above in your first paragraph!
No matter who is at your club in whatever role. If your club wins a game, a derby, a trophy, a league or whatever, fans will celebrate.
Angry or not to who is at their club, they will take the above mentioned success over any appointment
Ah well, in that case, I'll just ignore you, as that's patently absolute slavering nonsense.
I am a football fan and if Bin Laden (to use your daft example) took Hearts to the League title, I would long since have given up my season ticket. And I am confident to the point of certainty that I would not be the only one.1 -

My point was, I fully believe that those Hibs fans who are angry with his appointment that anger will quickly dilute/be forgotten about if Hibs beat Hearts every game this season, finish above Hearts or win a cup (you get the picture)
It's be handy in this if you decide what you''re actually claiming - is it Hitler and Bin Laden, is it a League title, or is it a cup, or just Malkkky and a few wins over Hearts? Is it that the person in question will be forgotten about, or that fans ire will be diluted?
Or something else entirely in order to make your point sound a little less obviously wrong?0 -

Who is trolling?
If Hibs win a trophy this season all Hibs fans will see is 11 players on the park wearing Green and white holding a trophy above their heads. There will be zero negativity mentioned regarding Malky
Except you said:
If a board of directors thought hiring Hitler as sporting director and Bin Laden as manager would get them 3pts on a Saturday and a league title at the end of the season then they would hire them.
And every fan of that club would celebrate (all clubs/fans)
which is not the same thing at all (and just to clarify, there would be some Hibs fans who were still negative towards Mackay, far less Hitler and Bin Laden).0 -

I would suggest this is definitely not the case (are all Dundee Utd fans on here trolls? The ones I know IRL are all lovely folk).

No. You're taking two separate things together and they don't go together.
If I was attacking this in the way RG is implying, I'd be in some way defending Malky's actions or minimising what he did.
I'm not doing that and it's lazy and offensive pish to suggest I am.
I'm pointing out that RG's apology point is the problem. There's a view now that we are all entitled to be party to apologies for private matters. It's complete nonsense, and it has definitely snowballed with the development of Twitter and the pile-ons that develop there. There is no question about this.
We're not entitled to an inside view of a private matter.
Ah well, we'll have to disagree on that one, at least to the extent that what you intended to say did not seem, to me, to be what you were saying.
That may, of course, be entirely on me.1 -
Just now, VincentGuerin said:
Nonsense. See above.
Yeah, I don't agree - I think @RandomGuy. is right. When you start with 'entitled pish' and 'twitter generation', it's just a step to 'cancel culture' and 'see all they wokes', imo.
And I am definitely not the twitter generation.

More entitled pish. This is the Twitter generation.
Coming disappointingly close to slavering on about the 'woke generation' here.

Also have heard he is a genuially nice person if you give him a bit of redemption.
I've heard from someone involved in the game at a professional level that he's a total c**t. Not Derek Adams level cunty, but close.

Doubt that but given your club knowingly employed 2 registered sex offenders I’d maybe sit this one out.
Whataboutery is always a bit rubbish - but even so, the saddest thing about Rix polluting Tynecastle was the number of Jambos trying to defend him and wittering on about second chances. And I already see lots of (though thankfully not most) Hibs fans on Twitter doing exactly that about this rancid piece of shit.

The supposed “3rd biggest club in the country” that was relegated twice in less than 10 years
If this thread has taught us anything, it's that recent data can be ignored as suits individual viewpoints.
Thus, neither happened.0 -
Just now, Dons_1988 said:
I didn’t even notice the 3rd place bit tbh!
Much like all hearts Aberdeen debates, you can twist this in many ways depending on your allegiances.
Aberdeen trounce hearts on top 2 finishes, hearts beat us comfortable on 3rd place finishes, hearts edge top 3 finishes 8-7, Aberdeen win on top 4 finishes.
Both bigger than Hibs, that's my take away from this.

looks like 5th is hearts natural place in things. Makes sense.
That would 100% be funnier if we hadn't been 3rd most often (which I have to admit surprised me)

Hearts have only finished bottom 6 four times. We love to be 3rd or 5th with an occasional frisson with 12th.
2nd x 1
3rd x 7
4th x 2
5th x 5
6th x 3
7th x 0
8th x 1
9th x 0
10th x 1
11th x 0
12th x 2
As likely to finish bottom as to finish fourth - it's a crazy ride being a Hearts' fan at times.

Looked to be just ultra on ultra though (not that that’s ok either) given they were all dressed in identikit black hoodies and covered faces. No idea how they know whose battering who.
I have wondered the same at times.

I'd imagine he's went through them privately.
Indeed. And given that, there's no moral boost from publicly pretending all was good, and it was just those pesky underhand Dundonians insisting on man marking and other nefarious tactics. No need to eviscerate them in public either, but an admission that it wasn't good enough and he/they had needed to do some work to improve quickly wouldn't have gone amiss.
But it's not massively important of course. It's not like he shot up the tunnel without shaking Tony Docherty's hand...0 -
Just now, AJF said:
Pretty much what I believe, however I think there can be more of a balance. Instead of just giving the players a boost, he can also explain what he feels can be done better and give an idea as to how he might address it.
Aye, this. Apart from anything else, the players won't believe it any more than the (not daft) fans do. Where's the quick boost in player moral from talking obvious nonsense? There should be a middle ground from Clement.

A Dundee win here would be very, very funny. Make it so lads!
I have decided that the funnier of the two options available for League winner this year is for Celtic to win it. It's a close run thing - Brenda whining and greeting is always hilarious and winning the title will give him the chance to lord it up for no good reason - but the sight of Rangers fans raging that the cancelled Dundee game cost them a title that was rightfully theirs is too sweet to be missed.
Dundee win, with an incredibly dodgy, VAR awarded, last minute penalty would be ideal.3 -

In Hearts situation, yes.
You're right of course - football fans are renowned for their Big Picture view during individual matches

Nobody boos when they're pissed off. It should be a cacophony of angry/bemused shouts, which would have been just. Even booing at half time if you went in 2 down would be understandable but it was a game in which you were 2 up at half time and at full time. To have booed at any point is just entitled, knicker-wetting nonsense. Can Hearts even finish anywhere other than 3rd?
That's some weird, convoluted take - 'bemused shouts'?.
The (brief) booing was at 2 down. Nothing to do with any other part of the game - though you seem to think the fans who were booing should have known at that point the half time score and full time scores.

I know how it eventually turned out, but the cacophony of boos from the Tynecastle Faithful when Livi went two goals up, was a joy to behold.
Is being mightily pissed off at being 2-0 down to the bottom side in the league, at home, really that strange a take?
