How Hibs are still 2-1 up I don't know. Talk about under the cosh :pac:

The_Kew_Tour · 11-11-2012 03:43PM

Phew! I can breath easy now.

Great win. Were made to really grind it out, but sometimes they are the sweeter ones. Loved Fenlon fist pump to fans.

The only thing is that its going bit too good at moment. It feels strange not actually feeling down more often then not.

We still have be realistic and we will go through bit of rough patch and its then we will see how good or poor we are.

Hibs sack PA announcer for taking the mickey out of Hearts.

They surely cannot be serious? He plays a song to give the fans a bit of a laugh at the expense of their derby rivals. OK, maybe the club officialdom didn't approve, but sacking the guy is OTT.

As for the supposed Hearts supporters who took offence, (a) I can't find them and (b) so what?

Dempsey · 13-11-2012 02:09AM

very harsh!

The_Kew_Tour · 13-11-2012 02:19AM

I found it funny myself when heard it.

Warning for being unprofessional fair enough, but sacking

Bit of cop on.

Any Hearts supporter I've heard from (and I do, ahem, know quite a few) thought the guy should have been given a lecture at most.

If it was Scott Wilson doing this to Hibs we'd nominate him for a knighthood.

Definitely OTT, and the guy should be reinstated, IMHO.

I very rarely visit the Soccer forum, probably why I've never seen this thread 'til now!

Nice to see a Hibee thread none the less.

Is there anywhere in Dublin that gets a Hibs crowd in to watch the matches when they are on?

Czech Inn near Temple Bar has a supporters group for all games on TV.

Mostly Scottish lads, but also get Irish there.

Not been in while myself though.

Was in there a good while back myself for a match, wasn't sure if they still showed the games. Will need to drag the Old Man out the house for the next one.

We havent been watching any games in the Czech Inn for a couple of years now, for various reasons.

There are usually a few of us in Murrays for all live games - top of O'Connell Street (was called Frazers back in the day). Will hopefully get a decent crowd for those of us not managing to make it over for the cup match on the 3rd.

This is the only place with enough TVs to make sure hibs are on when we clash with english matches, and also has all the dodgy italian, arab and serbian channels that show our games suprisingly frequently.

Was in there for both Celtic and Aberdeen cup semi last year and there was Hibs fans there. Not as many as usual, but still a few there so presumed there was still supporters watching them there.

I think there is an advert in the evening herald that might still say the Czech Inn on it, we will need to get that changed. Although its a good sign if there are hibs fans in more than one pub in Dublin!

The Czech Inn puts on the odd big match but it is not reliable if we clash with the premiership. Murrays has been good to us since (apart from a brief stint in the Players Lounge :eek:) It also joins on to the Living Room at the back which sometimes puts the match on in its heated beergarden.

There are not as many around as the John Collins days as a lot of the old regulars have emigrated/had kids/moved to swords etc so would be good to get all hibees in the one place!

I would love to join up sometime. Move back to Dublin after Xmas so will be onto you to see where ye will be watching a match sometime.

I still hope we are doing as well then as we are now.

We have been linked to just about anybody from the league of ireland since Fenlon took charge.

As much as i hate to take a player from Saints, if Forrester got some porridge down him he could be a quality player in the SPL.

seems to be quite few supporters clubs from teams across europe based in that pub. there are still a good few celts around but many who used to drink in there seem to have moved up the road to summerhill over the last couple of years

Follows on from the Falkirk announcer getting sacked for calling Sevco, Sevco.

There is a certain subsection of Scottish society that react in an aggressive and dangerous manner when they are not placed on a pedestal. I guess Hibs didn't want their staff threatened or attacked.

It would appear that Hibs, in this particular instance, wanted their staff sacked. :cool:

As I said already, anyone I know in the Hearts support reckon the guy was only doing what we'd do if the positions were reversed, and reckon that he didn't really do anything wrong.

The_Kew_Tour · 17-11-2012 05:22PM

It was nice while it lasted.

You should never get too confident when you support Hibs. I was today.

Getting to the top is one thing, staying there is quite another!

You would have gotten nice odds for that upset today

Camac Hibs · 17-11-2012 05:32PM

Im not too concerned, we are going to get some results like this across the season.

It sounded like the 2nd and 3rd were both rather fortunate - we have been getting most of the breaks so far this year in fairness.

Hopefully we will get a big reaction next week, it has happened after each dodgy performance this season
