They look almost identical, and are they destined to play roughly the same role?? With other players taking the plaudits (McGinlay, Murdo etc in Hamilton's days) and Zemmamma + Cregg these days (I personally think Cregg has a lot more to offer than just a "midfield grafter" that runs about a lot), will McBride play the Hamilton role??? (assuming McBride avoids the unfortunate tail-end of career comments about the comparative merits of being a postie and playing for Hibs).
By the Hamilton role I mean, generally under-appreciated by the fans, playing a pretty unglamorous role and allowing more skillful/technical players the defensive cover they require to work their magic on the ball.

At full time, I heard the same view, except it was expressed thus "That's all we need, another *****in Brian Hamilton".
Opinions, eh?

Please don't saddle McBride with these comparisons after a couple of games - give the guy a chance.
By the way everyone knows that Hamilton's first name was not Brian, it was "For f*c^s sake " Hamilton

I wasn't comparing him in a bad way necessarily, just saying midfield spade work seems to be both McBride and (was) Hamilton's principal job.
And they LOOK pretty similar

I haven't noticed the physical resemblance but I think he's been signed with that sort of role in mind.
But given the universal dislike that Hibbies generally have for the would be post master Hamilton I think it's an unfortunate comparison - what you mean is the Matty Jack role surely

their is a distinct resemblance, plus a similar work ethic. I thought that after Mcbride went off injured yesterday that we lost our shape. I have a feeling that he will either be loved or hated by our support. Personally i like that type of player, and he allows the Zemma's to flourish.

Kevin McBride is *****, or so I've heard frequently for the past year from a couple of Bairns I know. Currently, I'm leaning to agreeing with them.

Quality Hibs team and a not bad Rangers team either.
Laudrup's turn of pace at one point was frightning.
As was Kevin Harper's.
