Jungle bhoy has seedorf not won it with 3 {Ed007's Note - Yes he has won it four times with three separate clubs. Ajax in '95, Real Madrid in '98 and AC Milan in '03 and '07.}

It's an attack against football them idiots winning

Travesty that they will have the elusive 'star' on their srip from now on.
Bayern will be sick as schwein.
Hate Chelsea...

JJ

Believe it or not....there re teams who put stars on their shirts and they have NEVER won the European Cup or Champions League. Shocking and sad....but true!

Hail Hail

That puts them equal with Celtic now. One final won one lost. Only difference is both Celtic sides cost 30 grand between them. Before anyone says Celtics wins were worth less the old cup was harder. One bad game and you were out.

ed just bringing back memories(tommy's video) there and do you think we will ever fill paul mcstay's position again.the way he used to command the midfield av no seen for years(except lubo) but mcstay was with us start to finish no doubt one of the greatest ,kb-bhoy {Ed007's Note - Paul McStay is one of the nicest guys I have ever met, as is Willie and Raymond. My mammy used to babysit them when they were wee pups up in deepest darkest Larkhall. If he had took his chance to go to Italy he would get better recognition as one of the best of his generation, and not just by CFC fans.}

Paul mcstay is my hero, the maestro is the best

I just think we have never replaced that position since he left(big boots to fill),kb-bhoy

John collins was better than mcstay

Anyone think we should pick up McFadden? {Ed007's Note - Only if you are a taxi driver or can make him 'disappear' a la Fat Tonyesque.}

Never really "got" mcfadden not prolific enough to be a striker not fast enough to be a winger think he's overrated because of that goal in france

thanks ed for bringing tears to a grown mans eyes in front of his daughter and, I MEAN THANKS,but that wee video ahh tommy GOD BLESS HIM that choked me up,kb-bhoy {Ed007's Note - It's a great video mate, it came into my head the night before and I thought it should be posted on his anniversary.}

THANKS FOR THAT ONE ......ED007........the man was brilliant ed it chokes me up to try and explain it but thank you again ,kb-bhoy {Ed007's Note - No problem buddy.}

Hi ed, what the link for the video about tommy? and can you just ignore all the clowns who think we should go for that toss** mcfadden.
cheers davy

{Ed007's Note - Here is the video Davy:

Is that the video with the song Halleluiah through it?Tears were streaming down my face.

Jungle Bhoy.

Cheers ed great video would bring a tear to a glass eye,

How many major!major!games is that a**hole of a ref going to be allowed to ruin?penalty incident totally killed the game. Ludicrous. Artybhoy

19 May 2012 18:19:47
Hearts must love playing at hampden, 2visits, 2 dodgy penalties.

Bad advert for scottish football.
Rubbish cup final.

Ref spoiled any chance of a decent game

What a terrible decision that was. Ruined the game. How can referees see things that don't happen ? Hearts first goal was also from a bad decision, free kick leading up to corner. Hearts were the best team but decisions surely helped them. It's getting stupid now. tv is really sophisticated now but footballl is using the same methods as 100 years ago. How about 4 linesmen, 1 on each goal line and a ref in each half.

The game was also one sided

I think what we need is a mix of american football and crickets way of doing it give each team 3 challenges that they can take but when their done thats you and when either team uses their challenge it goes up to a second ref who can look at diffrent angles,slow motion,etc and give a better decision based on that

bigD

This cant continue ,50000 people payed a lot of money to watch that (granted half were happy with ref). the second half was lining up to be a cracker until that terrible decision. jersey pulled outside the box and player trips over his own feet in the box. the ref has too much to do. these decisions are now having as much bearing on the result as players and tactics. a linesman on the goal line would have been right there with an unblocked view. a challenge system as backup would be good. the match wouldnt need to stop. the penalty could go ahead and later the goal chalked off when the incident is reviewed. its important for the boom in match fixing too. its dead easy now for a bent ref to do his work. {Ed007's Note - I don't know about getting a goal chopped off retrospectively mate, that would be a logistical nightmare. I do agree with your main point about change. I constantly say that I don't believe all this conspiracy theory about referees being biased, I just think they are vastly incompetent, and not just in Scotland.}

Ian Black should have walked in the 1st half for his blatant use of the elbow on Leigh Griffiths in the first 15 minutes , the guy is gonnae end somebody's career eventually the way he goes in for challenges , theres hard and fair , but this guy is at best wreckless .

3 big games

Hearts vs hibs
Chelsea vs bayern
West ham vs Blackpool

Thoughts ? Fancy hibs as so far in these cups they have been up sets & just about everyone has write then off.

Bayern - just to the fact that chelsea are so over rated like man city money can't buy success which considering how much Chelsea have spent over the past few years I'll go for bayern 3-1 with chelsea to score 1st

Playoffs - think west ham as they have beatin Blackpool twice this season already & don't think Blackpool have it in them to go up & stay up.

** when I say money can't buy success I mean man city (ie) won the league with a very poor man utd side who had their problems.spending 50m on players & the like won't make a team gel (hope this makes sence lol)

Lenny

I agree with most of your predictions i also think bayern will win 3-1 but i think robben will score first.I also think west ham will win but i just cant see hibs doing it today as much as i would love hibs to win i think hearts will win 2-0 davie c

Have done a wee doubles and treble bet Hibs ,WH and BM ... TTTS

@TTTS.
Any bias involved with your "wee flutter"
or did you just fancy the other teams?
Hearts, - Chelsea, - Barry Ferguson.
I had Hearts, Chelsea,and West Ham.
Unfortunately had Chelsea at 90 mins.
Previously O.B.

Craig Gordon released by the black cats, Celtic bound?

Celtic and everton want him

19 May 2012 09:04:10
why are u all aiming so low when it comes to transfers, if celtic ever want to be in the english league they need to be successful, so going for championship options such as berra who couldnt stop anyone in priemier league would stand no chance in europe where we need to be successful to prove that we would be a profitable option to put into the epl

Come on, its not a matter of aiming low. Its a matter of being relsitic. We cannot compete on both fee's and wages on offer from middle of the road EPL teams, even bottom half in some cases. If we did try we would be in a situation like our neighbours are currently enjoying.

Yes our club strives to be succeessful on lots of fronts but this desire has to be tempered by realism and also that success cannot be taken for granted.

I would like us to make more of a push to be able to reach the CL on a consistant basis and then strive to maintain that for the obvious financial benifits that it brings. We as a club have missed a few oppertunitys over the last 5-6 years to try and maintain this sort of stature i lude too. However it cannot be taken for granted and sometimes the risks do outweigh the rewards. A well run football club that is pretty much guaranteed to last a very very long time into the future should always be a priority ahead of potential short term gain. Cos success no matter how much you pay for it is not a guarantee.

We are heading in the right direction again of that there is no doubt. A few more years and we may be back in position to compete with the EPL again but it has to be done in a prudent way and not by signing big name charlies in the pursuit of possible success.

Hope that makes sense?

Evinguu

I cant seem to get excited about the
big game today. A cup final without
at least one of the old firm teams
does not raise my interest. Anyway
I hope that Hibs win.

Thanks vladamire pissed enuff!

Fantastic match fantastic atmosphere. 45 mins gone, no old firm, sky hasn't fell in.

A one sided match again ruined by bad
refferree. Poor advert for Scottish football

19 May 2012 05:07:12
Grant Holt puts in a transfer request - is it possible we might have put in a bid?

19 May 2012 01:27:48
Right lads. I only have one team, one should only ever have ONE team.

But i will be a Hibs fan for 90 minutes tomorrow. Just the 90 minutes.

I would love to see hibs beat that other mob tomorrow, cant stand the sight of them.

Interested to see how many of you are in the same boat.

Agreed. One team is all a genuine fan can handle. The team is irrelevant. It's the passion that matters. Yes, even if you're a fan of the the team over at Ibrox.

My triple prediction for tomorrow is this.....Hearts to win the FA Cup, Leinster to win the Heineken Cup and Bayern to win the Champions League.

I could be wrong but I don't think so.

Hail Hail
ChrisBhoy

I remember when I was about 8 back in Melbourne my old man took me down to his local in a Hibs jumper after they had beaten Rangers that weekend. All his blue nose mates were still hurting but saw the funny side of it. I hope they get to lift that trophy, it seems to be a year of drought breaking results.... Man City, Kilmarnock and hopefully the Hibees.

GoldCoastBhoy

I agree its like when I watch England play I support the other team.
I have been getting myself prepared for no games against R*****s and moving the focus to second most hate filled team as our main rivals.

Not me i dont like any of them i support celtic and any team that plays rangers

510 pur sent mate

I was at 7-0 game in 73. Celtic game with Clyde was off so we got train through. Were searched twice going in and then met some hibs fans who had crates of beer somehow and let us join in the party. Great day. Also went to watch them in semi when they pumped gers. Went right in the thick of the rangers end. It wasn't pretty.
Their a great club so Mon the hibees.

19 May 2012 00:58:22
Fellow Bhoys.... it is official.
The Bears are delusional.
It isn't their fault.
They did nothing wrong.
They are the victims of many conspiracies.
They are the fall guys for bad guys.
(My waistline has grown by 6 inches because of all the jelly and ice cream!) lol
