He scored a few for us including a cracker in the Mercer Derby 🤣 failing that it has to be Zibi or Paul Hartley I still think that was Robbos goal, I thought he got a HT that day but didn’t touch CLs header either. I think Mcginlay only won once against us and that was for Celtic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martoon Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Matt Doherty. Purely for his interview after 5-1. Dont recall his exact words when asked if he'd be back at Hibs the following season but "you have to be ****ing joking" was the gist. Turned out to be a bit of a player, too. After he'd scrubbed Hibernian out of his system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martoon Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Nesbitt for missing that penalty, Roughie and his dream of winning a derby, Beaumont for showing Fozzy the way without hindrance, Zibi...for everything, Miller, Tortolano, Hunter, Weir, Kane, McGinlay and many, many more for being shite at derbies, Stanton, Blackley, Miller, Duffy, Calderwood, Hughes, Fenlon, Ross... for being shite managers in derbies. Hibs fans, too, for holding on to the delusion that they're club is better than Hearts because of "discovering Brazil, floodlights, Euro trailblazing, undersoil heating, Bukta, flair, swashbuckling..." but nothing that actually matters like derby wins, trophies...you know, daft things like that. Please Hibs, just keep being yourselves and never change. Sincerely, Me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboAndrew Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 I've enjoyed so many Hibs players over the years. Usually the ones they big up and then they turn out to be a polished turd. The list is long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ToqueJambo Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 (edited) Every single Hibs player who played for them from April 1st 1989 to April 30th 1994. Great bunch of lads. The only Hibs player I've genuinely admired and wanted us to sign every time I saw him was John McGinn, partly because we desperately needed someone like him. Usually with their best players we have someone as good or better in that position. It's rare for them to have someone who's on a completely different level to almost any of our players. I was also insanely jealous when they signed George Best, until I went along to see him play for them.

Fitzroy Pointon Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 "Porty" is fast becoming as new favourite. Ever since they started bigging him up after he threw himself around in a game against Rangers he has been an absolute liability for them.
