Dirty Deeds Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Pretty sure he was in part of the legendary 1997-98 relegation team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo Hoggie Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 His name I think was Jean Marc Boco. They all raved on about him after the first two games of the season then after that he ended up pash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Sifter Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Jimmy Boco has found his way into my (almost) every day life... Around the time he was here, me and my mates christened the term "taking a Jimmy" in reference to someone "takin the boak" (Boco). It's a term still used, by the educated, to this very day "I was oot on the Guiness last night and when I woke up this morning and farted, ah nearly took the Jimmy". That is all I can really remember about the big afro'd hobo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Bill Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Once upon a time, Hibs were flying at the top of the league playing the most magnificant flair football. Then as August came to an end, they faced Hearts, and a young man named Neil McCann tore Boco to shreads. Eight months later, Hibs were relegated as Hearts won the Scottish Cup. They taught Brazil, you know. Buffalo Bill . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo Hoggie Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I remember McCann giving him the run around and the hobo's loved Boco because of his speed and he was about as quick as a week with crabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truejambo81 Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 Ahh the memories of that great relegation side, that is a quality that all Hibs players should aspire to. lol Cheers for the info guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neave Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I remember in the old Panini sticker book they got the Jimmy Boco and Ole Gottskalksen names mixed up, so the name under the picture of Ole was Jimmy Boco and vice versa. Was funny stuff seeing a dreadlocked black guy with the name 'Ole Gottskalksen'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heartbeat Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I am sure that Patrick Viera and Boco are long time fiends and when Viera set up his soccer acadamy in Africa I think it was with Boco in fact sure Boco was the driving force and Viera was the big name added to it Pretty sure I am correct on this as avguely remember seeing a programme about it.

sked21 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Jimmy Boco? My favourite Hibs player of all time. Got knocked out twice and almost swallowed his twice from two Jorg Albert free-kicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
