 Never. Beating them was all that counted.

Indeed. Imagine also if it had been 7-1. How do you do that with two hands? 5-1 was perfect.

Seriously, have you ever posted a worthwhile comment?

 

You come across as my 9 year old when he isn’t getting attention.

I get the irony that my post wasn’t on topic. 
You seem to do this a lot though, post on a thread just to ridicule the OP.

Oddball behaviour

Another rapier addition to the topic.

 

If youre that bothered use the ignore function.

 

Your 9 year old could help.

I've never had any complaints about the final result or how the game unfolded. 

 

Goes against the grain but, at 4-1, I felt Paulo was right to proceed with caution. As Danny Grainger (I think) said the other day the Hearts team knew they were superior and the only real concern they had was that, with Leigh Griffiths in their team, Hibs could score goals out of nothing. Even if we dominated the game, which we did, he could still conjure up a goal from 30 yards out and a lead could be wiped or reduced in a heartbeat. What if we'd "went for it" and he'd pulled it back to 4-2? We might have become a bit edgy and who knows how we'd have felt if he'd scored another. 

 

Paulo was a 4 year old boy (same as me) in Portugal on New Year's day 1973. Numerically avenging that defeat wasn't his concern or job. His task was to make sure we won the biggest Edinburgh derby in history. He achieved it. And by five goals to one. 

 

That will do for me. Feck me, a 1-0 would still have made it one of the most important, famous wins in our history.

Robbo wore 15 in 1998 , the 113 (=5) Cup Final.
