    The starter at my golf club is Derek Parlane, i wind him up all the time with that song we used to sing in the 70s, which ended, and as for Derek Parlane you can stick him up yer hole.

    He takes it well, decent enough for a hun.

    Geebsie (for the younger reader, that's Gordon Hunter) grew up a Hun and he was almost universally loved at ER.

    Not the info I heard directly from a player who was in the same team.

    Took time out from 1st team to coach some of the youth players in his own time - when he left ER he gave all of them his phone number and said they could call him anytime if they wanted advice, etc.

    If he's one of the worst ever at ER then you've done well.
    One of the worst, no question. And I've seen a few without anyone having to tell me what nice blokes they are

    Scott Brown?

    Sure he was of Hun sympathies as a younger man, but certainly was good for us.

    Dougie Bell - Good...Alan Gow - Not so Good
    Bell did nothing for hibs - good player for huns but no respect for hibs, ask anyone who was at a supporters function where he was invited. The one I was at he disappeared and was found in the room next door drinking with a bunch of huns supporters just back from a game, pure class eh?

    Folk with a Rangers connection have not always been welcome at ER.

    We have endured some reprehensible ****bags like Terry Butcher and his lowlife mate Ray Wilkins who justify this.

    There must have been some that weren't a disaster but I can only think of Alex Millar.

    What are the other good and bad Hun that we have had through our doors and what is the balance between them?
    Did Ray Wilkins not have a dig at the Rangers fans saying they are anti-Catholic. Also I know Rangers supporters who hate Butcher due to his stance against bigotry at the club. Both seem good guys. Hated Gorum for what he became.......

    Jock Govan of the famous five era. Probably the first attacking fullback in world football. Great servant of Hibs.

    As a kid I liked Andy Goram. Now I just shake my head when I read the utter gash he comes out with.

    Sammy Baird who was Hibs captain when we beat Barcelona 3 - 2 at Easter Road in front of a near 50,000 crowd.

    I'd say there was more good than bad ones. Unlike Celtic

    Would have to disagree with that to be honest.

    His partner Davie Shaw was the brother of the Rangers captain Jock, aka Tiger Shaw. The family came from Annathill near Coatbridge, and I have no doubt that both Jock and Davie grew up supporting Rangers.

    Govan and Shaw made up probably the best full-back partnership ever to play for Hibs.

    Any footballer in the 1950's and 60's coming from the Airdrie/Coatbridge area and not aa membber of the Roman Catholic Church would probably be a Rangers supporter - that's a lot of very good players.

    Go figure it out - I think this thread's kinda silly, myself.

    Did you sing the original version, with 'Barney Battles' instead of 'Derek Parlane'?

    I thought that Dougie Bell came to us from St. Mirren. My memory fails me.

    Dougie Bell was a superb player for St Mirren then Aberdeen, but things didn't work out for him at Ibrox. At that time I had a pal who'd moved to Newton Mearns and we seen Bell in the Malletsheugh Inn one Sunday night, on his own, blootered - I remember thinking that he was just another player that the huns had ruined.

    I remember him having loads of skill when he was at Hibs, but spent most of his time going on mazy runs back and forward along the halfway line.
