I remember it well. Hibs looked like they would score every time they went up the park.
I think I was disappointed that we stopped at 7 :greengrin
Didn’t Livi score but was ruled offside at one point?
I was in a meeting near San Francisco & had been giving my US colleagues grief about spending all their time on then new mobile devices, blackberries IIRC. Cue ko at ER & I spent whole 90 minutes checking on score & understandably getting some grief back!!
I was at uni at the time and my rangers (RIP) supporting flatmate was almost crying as they lost that night whilst we smashed Livvy.

I took my brother to that game (who has no real interest in football) but we are from Livvy so he feels an allegiance to the Lions.
We were in the old east stand and...... I don't think he enjoyed it as much as me. :greengrin
What a week. Was at ibrox on the Saturday for the 3-0 SC win, Murrayfield on Sunday to see Scotland beat France, and then this game a few days later
I was there. :aok:
Livvy fans were singing easy easy at 7-0.
Shame that line-up wasn't together for one whole season rather than one match, would have done some damage.
I remember Lambert on the radio afterwards saying it could have been 17 or 18, the interviewer chuckled and Lambert said "I'm not joking." He wasn't. Hibs were so powerful and fluid that night.
James mcpake was playing for livi that night was he not
One of the great lost Hibs moments that it wasn't Konte's backheel that made it seven.
Was it not absolutely baltic that night??
More than the goals, I remember Ivan visibly counting to 10 to calm himself down before giving the linesman grief for a bad decision.
I lumped big on 5-0 Hibs that night and was looking at a small fortune. When the sixth went in I sat with my head in my hands while everyone around me were pissing themselves laughing!! Did celebrate the seventh though 😃
I remember the game well - total domination, but an an inevitable sense of frustration that we didn't get into double figures.
Funnily enough, I felt equally disappointed, as did Eddie Turnbull, when we took our foot off the gas on New Years day 1973 - Hearts 0-Hibernian 7 - should and could have been more comprehensive.
Fairly sure Paul Lambert was the manager.
How bad were Livingston that night not to have even scored. We had Simon Brown in goal. Yes you read it right....Simon Brown.
