Normally GIBBO strains to bid 4s over 4h. this time passes so i thought well forget what i thought because there is no point trying to think what GIBBO is thinking.
Who gets the blame?

You don't say if this is IMP or MP which makes all the difference on this hands bidding.
sure they are good but. dont know you have clubs...not that Gib would properly evaluate if you could show clubs and trump
Both sides have every reason to think they are beating 4H. At mp silly to bid 4S and go down when your beating 4H.

At imps i think you have more to complain about.

Not a double game swing. 4-1 spades + heart forces mean you are down 1 as East has to get a 2nd trump trick. As for not finding sac, well, it's not totally clearcut at this vul, I tend to sac as North on the always guess to bid 4s over 4h principle but I've been known to take phantoms.
