Craigieboy Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Derby day soon so lets be having you. My favourite (outwith Hampden) will always be Fosters winner in the cup. The whole feeling of that day is so vivid in my memory. The ball appearing from nowhere The ball appearing from nowhere & heading toward Foster Holding your breath for about 5 seconds as Foster took a dig at it The celebrations The bedlam that went on for ages The fact that we didn't really deserve to win the tie The hibs fans fighting among themselves in the old bEast terracing Watching the re-runs on the BBC & seeing genuine fear on Dougie Donnellys face as the TV gantry got kicked to **** Seeing the genius effort of the guy who had the brass kneck & confidence to bring the 21 Key Pefect.

ThomasFlogel Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Could be a long thread this one De Vries' 4th trundling into the net. 4-0 at Tynie - The walk into town, Blazing sunshine. Hampden - Need i say more? - Smith sent off (longest serving). Sproule sent off (fans favourite) Hartley hat-trick (their ex player). Their keeper ballsing up (the usual) 2-1 - Driver & Glen, was in the old stand for the first time in ages. The old fashioned feeling was brilliant. Didnt expect us to win, and we won. Happy days.

Don Juan Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Another one that was brilliant was the game we beat them 3-2 on boxing day (i think) a couple of years back. Had the pleasure of watching it in the Jocks Lodge (nuff said)- full of hibees apart from me and one of my mates was reekin drunk and gave the hibees in the bar it tight the whole game. The usual Zibby nonsense gave us the lead before it went back to 2-2 with Dean Sheilds getting sent off after scoring a penalty and charging into Gordon. I turned to my mate who I was sitting with and said "I would love it if Miko scored the winner.........." Then Miko goes and blasts it in the top corner and I went totally crackers in a hibee pub. The vermins faces were a picture! In fact I was probably lucky to get out their without being shot in hindsight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAndo7 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 The De Vries game was amazing I had bruises all over my legs from jumping all over my seat, and also...Stampy scoring at Fester Rd and being sent off for celebrating was special!

The Vulture Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 The games where the press and media say Hibs will win blah blah, the 0-2 (Colquhoun x 2) and 0-1 (McCann) at Easter Rd were 2 of those games as they were 'riding high' in the league and we were below them. Best has to be the 4-0 one, although they got their revenge by beating us 2-1 in the 'one that mattered' a week or so after Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_Jersey_HMFC Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 So many good memories with the 4-0 at Hampden standing out obviously Another one tho is the 3-2 on Boxing Day 2006, mentioned above by Don Juan. The game was originally supposed to be on the 27th and flights booked etc for boxing day was due to go to the game but the Setanta bassas re-arranged it to boxing day! Not only did we not get to go to the game but the flights meant we didnt see the 2nd half! Watched the 1st in the pub, saw Hartleys goal then in taxi upto airport got the text that Janny had made it 2-0,another Zibby gift, looked like we were cruising.. get text going through security Hibs got one back.. then waiting in depts got the text about Shiels scoring the pen.. but then getting sent off for punching Gordon??!! Sitting on the plane safety demonstration "and you'll find your lifejackets in the overhead panel.." me and Dad "YAAAASSSS!!!!!" (Miko having just made it 3-2 with minutes left).. whole plan looking at us in bewilderment... plane literally on the runway got the text "FT 3-2".. cue more celebrating followed by a swift switching off of the phone! Still gutted to this day to have missed it and could watch Miko's strike and the eruption of the Gorgie End all day long. But the circumstances of my story just make it memorable A few good trips down to their smelly bus shelter in recent years too.. in fact in the 5 or 6 times ive been there im still unbeaten! the 2-0 cup game 2 years back was great, but last month was pretty good too!

Didn't get a ticket so had to make do with sitting in my mum and dad's friends' house, full of Hibs fans. Us off the back of the 4-0 humping off Dundee Utd. Would have loved to be there that day.

Adi Dassler Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I could not even begin to start writing down all the magic moments i've experienced against Hibs over the years.......but i will. Any victory at Easter Road is that wee bit more enjoyable i feel. And that much better when it's either a late winner and/or undeserved. I must give an honourable mention to the guy who ran onto the pitch beside me at the 4-4 game, lifted the corner flag, threw it right into the Hibs end, and turned on his heels and ran right up the steps and into the bowels of the Wheatfield. I often wonder if you got nicked, i hope not mate. The 3 SC cup games in my lifetime. Foster on the fence and my dad catching the ball in the enclosure in the dying seconds and proceeding to throw it up into the Main Stand. Nearly got huckled for that. What can you say about the 4-0 that has not been said before? A day i will never forget. Gary Glen rounding the keeper and piling down the front, celebrating in the Haymarket well into the night. 5-1 and joints being passed around Section N, that was when it was in it's infancy and before the bizzies and loads of wee ******s spoiled it. McKenna and Stampy and possibly the best bounce i've seen. Cheeky Vimptos and singing 'oh what a feeling, we're dancinjg on the ceiling' in Milnes for hours afterwards. I seem to remember a game in the early noughties when Pressley scored a late penalty being a lot of fun but i forget the details. I wish i could remember them all.

primrose Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 2-4-6 Left the family down in Centerparks at whinfell and drove to Hampden, parked the car and walked to stadium. As I got to the ground I passed the Hibs fans, all seemed very quiet and low key, rounded the corner to see about 10,000 jambos playing football and the place was bedlam, I knew there and then we were going to win that game. Drove back down to centerparks and as I pulled into the car park I noticed another car with Jambos in it so we arranged to meet later and got pished, what a day!!!

Gizmo Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Loved the game when BSB were broadcasting it live, John Inverdale up doing the studio links etc, freezing themselves to death in the silly wee ER media booth. 4-1 at a canter, and Mackay scored an OG making him Hibs second joint scorer at that point! Of course, he meandered up the pitch and battered one in at the right end to redress the balance. And I've shared this memory on here before, but exiting from the 'Wayne Foster' SC game - with all the hobos held well behind a barrier - and some grizzled old soak in a denim jacket, big grizzly beard the lot pipes up "I've never even heard 'o Wayne Foster"!!! To which my mate goes over to him and says, in a really earnest, sympathetic tone - "We'll perhaps you should complain to the SFA but I don't think your lack of knowledge is likely to get the tie awarded to you". At this point, if there had been no barrier I suspect the gentleman in question would have tried to eat us, such was his confused, yet primeval, reaction!

Jambo Ell Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 My favourite is obviously the semi final but so many other enjoyable moments too. The funniest had to be the wee cup party spoiled by big Zal, the scenes were hilrious. Shoes off, old women refusing to leave the ground, us being chased out of one section of the stand by the police then running into another section! One that stays in my mind was the cup win at Easter Road a couple of seasons ago. Once Glen scored we could really enjoy it and about an hour and a half after the game I bumped into Karipidis on Hanover Street. I saw him walking up he road so I proceeded to belt towards him (a bit worse for wear IIRC!). He looked pretty scared initially but I hugged him and he just burst out laughing and said he was happy to beat the Hibs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommythejambo Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Probably the semi-final. Our bus, leaving from Northfield's Right Wing, took a wrong turn and ended up going through the Hibs side of the ground, the whole bus was going mental. Obviously the win made it what it was. Also my first ever derby, which was a 1-1 draw at Er with Hartley scoring for us in the mid-00's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMc Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 One of my favourite memories regarding Hibs was when I ended up in hospital after the 06 cup win. I had crashed my bike 3 days before the final (couldn't drink) and had to be readmitted straight after the game. Ended up in a hospital room with two other Jambos (both fell over pissed after the game) and one Hibby. The three of us had a great time discussing the 4-0 semi and how it felt to watch your team lift the big cup. The poor Hibby had a triple leg break and couldn't even go for a piss on his own, let alone get away from our celebrations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
