Mogga Is the new Fergie ????

TM says Hibs are naieve and honest. I agree.

Sproule got shoved off the ball in the penalty box against ICT last weekend and stayed on his feet trying to get the ball back. If he'd gone down he could well have won a penalty.

However, in these days of blatant cheating and constant harrasing of the referee (Hartley and co are particularly bad at this) I am very proud of the way Hibs players conduct themselves on the pitch. They play football in an open and honest way. I may be looking through green tinted glasses but all I can say is that there is not one Hibs player who tries to cheat or con the ref. TM is gracious in both defeat and victory. Unlike the scum who release the DVD the day after a win and demand replays when they get beat.

No matter what happens on Sunday we will always be the best team in Edinburgh :applause::applause::applause:

I agree that our players are generally an honest bunch, and we don't have the 90 minute pantomime antics of the likes of Skacel........ but.........

Amadou Konte has been guilty of a couple of dives in front of the FF stand that were so outrageous that I laughed out loud!

Maybe one reason he hasn't been a first pick.

There have been a few times I have seen our players going down a bit too easily and I find it annoying. I general though Hibs players do not dive all the time. The only way to play the kind of football TM wants, and we want to watch, is to stay on your feet in a tackle and keep/ pass the ball. This is what makes outstanding players. The likes of Ronaldinho get kicked all over the park but manage to stay up if they can and keep the ball. They get past players and terrify defences with their football ability, not by winning free kicks. I am not suggesting we have players like Ronaldinho, well apart from Broonaldo obviously, but we do have players with the right attitude to playing football. And for that I am grateful.

Aye but that was just him warming up on the track! :roll:
