The singing section
Shout out to these guys for last night, pity the team can't keep trying in adversity like they did.
I've been watching a few You Tube videos lately all centered around the fact that in the face of European football being dominated by the usual suspects in domestic leagues and in European competitions fans of many clubs simply see being there to support their clubs for good or bad as the end game, with any on field success being a bonus you make the most of if and when it happens. In many cases love for the club and the culture surrounding it transcends the desire for on field success ... the likes of Real Betis and Union Berlin being good examples.
None of that means the fans don't want their club to be successful or stops them complaining about the lack of it, but their loyalty and attendance at games doesn't stand or fall on the back of it ... it's support for supporting's sake and how I wish Hibs could become one of these clubs, we have the history, we have the community background, we just need the will.
Rumor has it that the singing section may well end up in the FF lower next season and that for me could be a start to that sort of attitude within our fanbase ..... I'm just an auld romantic, sorry can't help it :greengrin
