In the report on the Berwick match it states that George Best played at Shielfield in a Scottish cup match for us. My memory tells me he missed that game. Am I just losing it or is the Scotsman getting even poorer?

It may be that it was the replay when GB was in the pub with said "guy".
Particularly as GB did play in the original match-

1) Ever since the story emerged about George drinking with the French rugby team, the night before our cup tie with Ayr, hunners of people claim to have been drinking with George in the NB at various times when games were being played. The NB bar must have been about the size of Hampden! The funny thing is the French occasion was the only time George drank in the NB.
2) Big Tam, Sean Connery, was our milkman! Sean's milk round must have been of marathon standards & his horse would have given Red Rum a hiding!
Great fun though & I love the way these stories develop over time!

One of my favourite Hibs questions was / is
When Hibs played Berwick Rangers in that game there was a man on the pitch who had won a European Cup medal, another who had a European Cup Winners Cup medal and another who had a UEFA Cup winners medal. Name the three players?
If George hadn't played my question would have been null and void.

Met him in the now flattened Robins Neuk in Macmerry one night years ago and asked him the question, he got it after a while but he got Best and Cormack before he got himself. To be fair I think he was on a bit of a downward spiral at the time.

I do, however, remember when we played them in 67 (?). After they beat the lesser Rangers, we got them at ER. I think we beat them 1-0.
PS, I had veggie sausages last night.

First time we'd ever met Berwick competitively. We've played them seven times, and although we've drawn twice they have yet to score against us.

No doubt, a large part of the crowd were attracted by what Berwick had done in the previous round, but that is pretty amazing. Now I know why I was standing at the Dunbar End. It was a regular occurrence in those days for my Dad to take me to that end.

Seem to remember them bringing a large support that day with a bit of trouble up town before and after.
