Hibs defeating the likes of Barcelona, Porto, Napoli and Sporting Lisbon en route to semis and multiple quarter finals. Hearts defeating the likes of St. Patrick's Athletic, Austria Vienna and Velež Mostar en route to one quarter. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, the worst ever result by a Scottish club in Europe is officially stamped as Hibernian 0-9 Malmo. Our result isn't even top five. Unlucky. There we go. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elixir Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 You beat utter shite in your two games to get to your 'European Cup semi', considering near every c**t turned down the chance to play in it. Is the Fairs Cup even recognised by UEFA? Not even sure coloured TV was a thing back then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShrooTheLookingGlass Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I'm starting to wonder how many Jambos were actually secretly attending Easter Road for the games against Runavik, Asteras and Molde.... They do have a record for being unable to resist the allure of Easter Road when their supposed team isn't playing. They seem enthralled tbh. It's all about the Hibees! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I mean it only holds significant importance to eventual winners Real Madrid to this day, the biggest club in the world.

Zing. Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 The loss of Bartley last night highlights how much we need a couple of good quality central midfielders. Once he went off we had nothing protecting the back three. Mallan, Slivka and Hyndman are all forward thinking players. Wasn’t at all impressed with either Slivka/Hyndman last night. Big end to the window for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oops, silly me - I mistook getting humped a total of 16-5 in the 'Preliminary Rounds' with playing in the competition proper.

Guest Bob Mahelp Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Both Hibs and Hearts are, always have been, and always will be, utterly pish in Europe. Hibs got to a 'semi-final' once in a competition with 8 teams, and where they didn't even win the league the year before. Hearts 'European record' is simply pathetic. Both sets of fans would be better to shut up about Europe and stop embarrassing themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
