rossj6 96 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 The last couple of results have been our own fault. We haven't been beaten by quality goals or a quality team, it's been our mistakes. If we can cut the slackness, Play the way we do and up the tempo we will be fine. We will also be stronger with waggy and hopefully forrester back.

Wouldn't that be a pity. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perth_Campsie_Ger 17,994 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Im actually glad hibs have gave us decent games this season and been ambitious in their promotion hopes because it made the leauge exciting, yes it would of been good to of won it at a canter but iv actually enjoyed it this season Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrLaudrup 4,597 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Hibs are a good side. They lack consistency over a league season but on their day are capable of beating any team in Scotland. They will be at their most dangerous in the cup. We are the better side though and if we play to our capabilities will win. Hopefully Forrester and Waghorn will freshen us up too as both will be champing at the bit hopefully. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical small minded small team mentality, no likin the big teams lol If it's possible to be even more bitter and twisted than septic then hibs manage it ... tims without a bus fair just about sums them up lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then as we did in that game, play our way and absolutely run them off the park. It's not about Hivees, it's all about the Rangers. As long as we remain focused and play our brand of football we will win. No need for us to be part of the media circus that will run for three weeks prior to the game. See, this is what worries me. We ran the bheggars ragged and were the much better side overall, BUT it still went to penalties and we could still have lost it on the day. We need to be pumped up on the day because HIVs will be gunning hard for the upset. Most importantly of all, we need to make our chances count and not squander them, and our defenders need to be bottle-fed rocket fuel prior to kickoff to keep them awake for the entirety. Agreed 100% on the media circus - lay low and don't rabbit on senselessly before the match. Take them to the cleaners and talk when the match is won.

The ones where a league has been won and they totally take the foot off the gas and the party expected becomes such an anti climax . My mind thinks of 1976 when we won the title .The last game was against Airdrie and we were to pick up trophy .We expected a party and a good victory .Score 0-1to Airdrie.. 89 Season .Last game and picking up trophy . Rangers 0 Aberdeen 3 .The week after. We fuck up possible treble with 0-1 loss to beggars .Team we pumped 5-1,4-1 and 2-1 and piggery just a month before . 94 season . We have league won in April . We then lose 4/5 games remaining games . We have historic back to back trebles to go for but completely don't turn up for the final and lose 0-1 . There are others but this is just typical of Rangers throughout the years . I sincerely hope the Management and players are giving Hibernian fc a lot more respect than many of our own fans . Some of who ,just think we have to turn up to pump them . From experience .This is just a major error of judgement when there is a very important game on the horizon . There is also the matter of the Hibs Scottish cup hoodoo .It has to end sometime . I think the whole of Scottish football will also be rooting for a Hibs win . It will be a hard one to take if we turn up complacent and don't show the right attitude and application . Wise up fellow bears . Ffs eejay 'respect' !!!?? I know where your're coming from but hivs are the antithesis of the word 'respect'. There is nothing to respect in their history from a footballing perpective or anything else concerning them. Should we be wary of the rodent scum, aye. Should we avoid being complacent, aye. Are they dangerous if underestimated, aye. It is possible to be wary, and not underestimate the hivs without giving them respect. Give 'respect' to those who deserve it, and they don't.

baxterboy 476 Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 I don't think it's possible to 'hate' and respect something at the same tme. That the things you hate about the hivs preempt respect. ..eg. if a paedophile lives on your street which you hate, wariness of him is critical but this doen't include respect for him precisely because of what he's done. Same for the hivs. What they've done pre-empts any 'respect' - which has nothing to do with being wary of them or the danger of underestimating them.

Just look at politicians or soldiers. In a war you can hate your enemy but not respecting them is how you end up dead. While I disagree with showing Hivs and their fans any respect in the usual sense of the word, we cant go into this expecting an easy game. I dont have respect for hibs but we cant treat them like a bunch of mugs. I suppose saying we have to see them as serious competition is the same as saying we have to respect them, but im not about to say "we should respect hibs" because theyre scum and I hate them Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cushynumber 25,178 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I think on our day we will win. However i will get really worried if Stubbs starts playing his mind games again. We are just no match for him in that respect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
googglebot 4,736 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I sure the Ladds will turn up all guns blazing. Hibs are actually quite a crap team so we would have to be really bad to lose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
