Dundee United 1 Hibernian 0
‘Our bubble is well and truly burst’
‘The Jambos and Dundee Utd. have much more character than us’
‘9 out of 10 for talking the talk, but you’re definitely on a downward spiral trying to walk the walk’ (of Manager John Hughes)
‘We are softer than a marshmallow’
‘No bottle No desire No belief No winning mentality No winners in the team’
‘If Derek Riordan isn’t dropped for the next game, I’ll begin to question Yogi’s sanity as a manager, as he was the laziest, gutless b*****d on the park today’
‘I’ve often suspected that Zemmama was a bit of a malingerer’
The above are just a few of the comments I picked up on the Internet after Hibernian’s 1-0 defeat at rivals Dundee United yesterday. It should be said that others held a more pragmatic view of the current state of Hibs however and that these were the angry remarks of post-game supporters. The game was a genuine four-pointer that’s for sure. To compound the disappointment, an opportunity to gain gain ground on Celtic who dropped two points at home to Falkirk was lost.
