Hey Sparky9 - don't you know that the Yams think it's a hoot that we Hobos are always going on about all the famous fans we've got? During the summer they started a whole thing with photos of famous people doing a 5-1 with their hands. At the moment there's probably a Yam or two reading this thread and about to to go back to Brokeback to have a giggle about us Hobos having yet another thread about all our famous fans. And by the way, if you are a Yam reading this then you can **** off.

Andrew Maxwell the Irish comedian is a Hibs fan. He used to do a bit about being at a Hibs vs rangers game. It's on youtube somewhere.

No idea, he's originally from Ireland, don't know where he lives, but he's definitely a Hibby. Seem him at a few games and spoke to him in the dockers a few times before games.

The one I saw (on Hibs Net) was of David Hasselhoff :greengrin Which is probably the average Yam's idea of a classy celebrity.

:agree:

He is from Morningside, well more Comiston and Braids. I was mates with his big brother and would never have thought Greg who was probably 8 or 9 would be an actor and comedian, was a quiet lad. As far as I know he has no big interest in football but years since I last saw him.

Is that the fella who works for sondico? I hear they're attempting to make a big comeback to the market so it would explain why Stacky changed his Sells to Sondico last season and why Williams has appeared to drop his sponsorship with react :agree:

Craig Thomson.

And I'm sure Jimmy Saville wouldn't take much encouragement if he were alive.

The very man he was credited with many of the things that made Sells so good and worked with Uhlsport amongst others, and yes Sondico are back and looking great ( pretty expensive though for a First premium line of the relaunch ) but certainly a huge player in that industry and one of our own

I've heard Shirley Manson is a Hibs fan, can't guarantee it's true though.

Jamie Murray is a Hibs fan as well.

I was pals with him in school and hes no feel leit or morningside. He was brought up just down from the commy at priestfield.

He played when he was younger but never ever had an interest in Hibs...dunno where Sparky9 was getting his info!!!!!! Leith?? Aye right!!

Saw him at a couple of games with some of his mates. Think it was during the Edinburgh Festival.

Once at Easter Road when we played Aberdeen. 3-1 down and came back to draw 3-3. Another time was through at Motherwell when we won 3-1 a couple of seasons ago.
