Scottish football

I can't believe how few fans Hibs and Hearts get, bearing in mind the amount of people who live in, and around, in Edinburgh.

Edinburgh is quite affluent and many fans can afford the bus fare...

Hibs , or The Heritage Deniers as Celtic fans call them, were definitely the original club for Irish immigrants in Scotland. I believe Celtic did poach some of their players, though I can't give you any details. I was only a wee laddie in 1888!

Heritage Deniers?
Never heard that.
They do play on it a wee bit surely?

 

[larbert toffee]

I am yes. I'm sure a Hibs fan can verify this.

I'm sure Wikipedia could verify this.

They play on what, their Irish heritage?

I hear what your saying about the size of Edinburgh but out of interest CV why do you think both OF clubs are so well supported.

Hibernian were the original irish immigrant club in Scotland i believe. Although Hibs don't play up on that, to the extent Celtic do. Didn't Celtic basically poach all of Hibs players, back in their early days as a club?

Eh?
Are you sure Corky?

The clue is in the name

So you say this earlier...

I agree with this.
It’s a Scottish football thread so any chance we can talk about Scottish football and not constantly about the supporters of the OF. If you want to do that start a thread called OF supporters thread.
The attention seeking is embarrassing.
The other supporters of non OF clubs on here get dragged into the mix by you lot and pigeon holed into which team you sit with, Tim or prod.
It’s pathetic.
Your soo up your own erse it’s cringe worthy. It’s all look at me look at me.
It’s a Scottish football thread has anyone mentioned about our national team defeat last night?
Naw

Then you ask the biggest instigator on here of everything you say you can't stand to go off on one again... Weird!!

They have a large support because they are so successful.
They win things all the time year after year.
What the hell are you on about?

Then you ask the biggest moon howling bigot on here to comment on the supporters of the OF!
as I said... weird!

 

[Brianblue]

Was given the guy the benefit of the doubt to have a sensible discussion.
OF fans are part of Scottish football now you’ve mentioned moon howling bigots…weird!
I don’t want to talk about bigots I want to talk about Scottish football.

Fair enough, but you chose to ask him about the fans and not about the football, that's why I commented.

 

[Brianblue]

Scottish football wouldn’t be anything without the fans though regardless of who we support.
It’s good to talk.

We should all meet up for a friendly pint in the Pot Still in Glasgow sometime and if we don't all get on we can then look for the nearest Morrison’s ? (Other supermarkets are available)
