    Seriously considering both of these ideas. Mind you my futile attempts at a mouser might mean a visit to Turveys in Glasgow Road.

    I'm not sure the police would let you in the ground with your cane though.

    Bonnet sounds like a fine idea. Getting 25000 of them might be tricky.

    OMG FFS - Last week I stopped shaving and have started to grow a beard - my Aberdeen mate quipped whether I had stopped shaving until Hibs won a game
    "At the end of the day, we all aspire to bigger things in our lives but one thing I can truly say from my heart is if I never kick a ball for one of these bigger clubs I would be delighted to stay with Hibs for the rest of my career. That's how highly I regard this club." Ivan Sproule

    Might purchase one of these for the big day http://www.toffs.com/Hibs-1902-1903-...info/2416/2434 .

    Maybe Mikey could organise some horse-drawn carriages for travel through to Glasgow also

    Recreating 1902 may help us win the cup

    I have a sartorial dilemma for the final. I want to wear my Eddie Turnbull 10 jersey but didn't for the win against the Dons when I went for my green and white, round neck with the golden harp.

    Lots to think about for the weeks ahead

    The "Paddy Fenlon" spec s which were being sold on our bus should be replaced with monocles for the final, just for authenticity.

    I believe the Scottish Motor Traction have favourable rates for Charabanc and Omnibuses - deposit of 2/6d (non returnable).

    For pre match meals, and post match smoking concerts we would respectfully commend.

    Hmm, well if we win here are a few starters:

    From 1902 to 1905

    The Hibernian Singularity

    The Eternal Sunshine on Leith of the Scottish Cup Win

    Sons of Buffalo Bill

    I like the cut of your jib. Anybody know if there will be a refreshment salon, or should I take my hip flask?

    That's actually pretty fantastic. Looks very like the pyjamas that will be adopted in the ODS household should we win.

    They were defo being advertised as Fenlon specs. I'd have bought a pair too if I didn't already have specs!

    To be honest, some of the scruffy layabouts in our support (don't even get me started on Hearts) could take a leaf out of those chaps books. They knew how to dress back then. I like the double-breasted on the right - daring but excellent if you can carry it of.

    I would always carry a cane, but sadly it would confiscated as an offensive weapon - once a fate a brolly of mine at Ibrox, many seasons ago.
