dode Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 from queereyeforastraightguy.com VILLAGER: "is it just me who thinks that the boys in the photo look as cool as got in the eighties. i'd wear that gear to a derby nae bother.wtf." When we used to watch that game on video we always had a titter at the bawsack losing it bigtime while wearing his don johnston over a hibs top. many fashion faux pas have occured over the years I remember when I worked on the gates at Tiny this bloke regularly turned up in his blue Henry Smith goalie top with dress trousers and shiny slip ons...NICE. but for me its the hibs top jacket combo thats still so funny.

Le Chat Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Have to agree. The whole issue is completely unfunny. I don't wish to sound condescending at all mate but the reason why you, Neave and some of the younger lads don't find it even slightly amusing is that you missed it first time round. When this happened in 1986 everyone in the school playgrounds round Edinburgh was laughing at the complete 'fashion victim' greeting his eyes out at the big bad Jambos. The boy was a figure of ridicule back then and its return is an amusing 'blast from the past' for those of us in the mid to late 30's age range.

And the irony that some hibby mentioned on the thread you linked us to does, indeed, appear to have been lost amongst some of you. Why slag someone off for what they worse 20 years ago? - He's a hobo - Even 22 years ago that look was criminal - There's a big discrepancy between what he wanted to look like (Don Johnson) and what he ended up looking like (Hobo trumpet) - It is always funny to see a Hobo going mental after a Hearts goal and, for my money, this is the funniest display of Hobo bufoonery ever. - Dredging something up from 22 years ago and making Hilson a minor KB celebrity - it makes me chuckle - Why not have a bit of fun linking it to their Scottish Cup failure. To me, and obviously a few other people, that photo of Hilson sums up everything I dislike about Hibs. Most people I knowe who've watched 'Back from the Brink' or 'Hearts: The celebration' have almost worn their videos out rewinding to laugh at this tool.

MMHearts Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I certainly remember this chap as I (and a few mates) ended up sitting in the Hibs end that day as we came back from holiday and the Hearts end at Easter Road was sold out so we got tickets for the shed end. He was sitting just down from us to the left of the goals. After the third goal went in and their end started thinning out, I started to recognise fellow Jambos in the seats as well. Trying not to smile too broadly of course. I also remember being held back at the Albion Bar by the police as the Hearts fans were allowed to leave first. One of the hardest things I have stood through was to not join in the Hearts song as 000s of Hearts fans danced along the road whilst all you could hear from the Hibs fans I was standing with was the grinding of their teeth as "Hearts Hearts Glorious Hearts" echoed along the road. I wouldn't recommend sitting in the wrong end at a derby especially when you score three as it's quite difficult to sit there and pretend to be beeling when inside you want to jump up and celebrate. I have to salso ay that the Dunbar end looked absolutely amazing from where we were sitting as it was full. Couldn't hear much though as the end wasn't covered. Overall a 9/10 day. Would've been 10/10 if I'd been in the right end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that you're producing naff, daft-looking clothes to slag off someone wearing naff, daft-looking clothes is ironic in that it's contradictory. After reading this thread, I didn't realise he was a cult figure in the 80s; I was only born in '88. The whole thing seems a tad funnier and more adequate now, but it's still a poor shout, IMO.
