You need to let go of that odd impulse to prove everyone wrong all the time. Its not what forums like this are for.
I don't have an impulse to prove people wrong, but I'll happily pour scorn on any idea that a team's run of poor results or a refereeing error is due to "match fixing".
Of all the recent cases of match fixing that have been publicised it has involved gambling: I haven't read about anything involving the groups alluded to in your ludicrous suggestion. Which is it held any water would see said groups prefering hearts promoted over Rangers and also Motherwell in the top league.
It's just nonsense.
Now you can make some more silly remarks regarding Fred and I being in general agreement with each other. Not only did Hibs get denied a penalty as part of this conspiracy but an outcome of 2-2 was the desired result.
How will all this insanity, built on finding excuses for Hibs failure, square ifHibs get promoted and win the SC ( which obviously can't happen due to the conspiracy you subscribe to)?
Would that be a fix? Or would it just be that Hibs very poor strike rate and leaky defence get it together for a run of games?
I'd really like to known what evidence there is to support the assertion, because I'll bet that for every refereeing mistake that you claim cost you a game I can find a glaring miss in the same game from one of your own players or another refereeing mistake that favoured you.
Football is a game played by humans and humans err. Referees don't make anymore mistakes that players they just happen to be higher profile than the player mistakes.
How much was fatty paid to fail to fall on that shot?

Its funny hearing hertz fans mock the idea when all my jambo mates whine on and on about love street 86 being rigged. I prefer to keep an open mind on the subject.
And this is were you, probably without realising and you'll probably deny it, support my rational: in 86 Celtic couldn't guarantee a win and neither could Hearts, not even with the help of the referee, but St Mirren could guarantee their own defeat. And that is what the Hearts fans will be putting forward.
So, are the Hibs team failing intentionally?5
