moses1924 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Any details on when tickets for the second leg will be on sale? Very nervous for these two games having been at all the playoff defeats as far back as Hibs but I suppose just by the law of averages we have to win one eventually... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Diamond Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Please stop this favourite shit, its guaranteed to put the hex on us. We are definitely the underdogs, Hamilton are a massive championship club (ect,etc) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamond1924 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Hamilton still look like they can turn up even when it’s looking dark. The fact that they scored 4 goals in 9 minutes gives me the absolute fear -even against 10 men or not. That being said we have looked very solid in our last two games and even more clinical. We need to come right out for this on Wednesday and play exactly like we did against Falkirk. I have a lot of respect for Accies and what they have done over the last decade but I just think we deserve our chance now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually talking about this yesterday as well. Massive amount of respect for the way Hamilton have went about their business the last 15 years or so (I'm not 100% on years and shit) but the flow of sales of promising youth players, getting the the premier, staying there against the odds, it's a hell of an achievement but when that decays it leaves the fans angry and bitter they don't operate at the same level anymore (see the protest at 2-0 down). I just think this team and set up we have at the moment deserves at least a crack at the championship! I watch a lot of the Friday night games and a lot of them are pretty, 'meh' 0-0 or 1-0's but also mental games like the QP v Dundee decider. There's no doubt some of the stuff we play for this level is excellent and there's guys there bursting their arses to make it happen. I just hope they get a shot at it. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Fernández Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 (edited) I'm still going into this game in a similar way that I did with the Falkirk game by having no expectations and seeing what happens. Until we have that 'play off monkey' off our back it's hard for me to go into any game in them full of confidence. I did think we'd beat Queens Park in the previous years final so I'm kinda glad to be a bit more relaxed than last year. Compared to Alloa and Falkirk I don't know too much about Hamilton as I haven't seen any of their games this season. Championship teams are very hard to gauge because on their day anyone can beat anyone. I also don't know too much about Hamilton's 'off the field issues' but it appears to be kicking off in the comment section on Facebook about the chairman's statement about the play offs. Fans accusing the board of deleting comments etc. https://hamiltonacciesfc.co.uk/play-off-message-may-2023/ Edited May 15, 2023 by David Fernández 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That isn't what the protest was about tbf. Being shit is one thing (football for clubs like us is cyclic), but being deliberately run into the ground by a board of directors who are more interested in charity work and antagonising what little support we do have is quite another. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's hoping that things start to take an upward turn with the board and the fans. Albeit I hope that happens next season in L1, for very obvious reasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly can't be arsed with them anymore. They make everything feel an absolute chore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The very same. I was just about to say that the Hamilton fans reminded me of that Cove game when Seref Zengin was there with (I think) Colin McGowan and Jim Ballantyne. A poisonous atmosphere that day, though I do still laugh at the story of Ballantyne flashing his rolex at someone. It goes back to what we were talking about in our thread yesterday. For all some people aren't keen on them for whatever reason, the current board are miles better than those charlatans. I dread to think where we'd be now if Zengin had took over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing that game and the atmosphere around the stadium that day is ultimately probably the best thing that’s happened to us in the last decade. I know even now we’re not exactly giants like Falkirk but the crowd looks depressingly small on the highlights for that game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies then, I've maybe got the wrong end of the stuck or just not well versed enough in the current accies plight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
