    The lowest and fear filled week of my football life kind of turned during those moments Joe walked out on to the hallowed turf and kissed it. My Hibs mad Dad was in his sick bed with a few months to live (and Joe was his hero) so i went along that day on my own. I remember thinking 'Joe won't let this happen..' Just knew then our famous wonderful club was going to survive long after any of us as I stood with tears welling up.. Great great man. incredible player. RIP Joe - and Dad.

    I met Joe in the pub in Waverly train station after a Hibs game once (he was waiting for his train home). He was delighted that someone (me) recognised him and I had a great hour in the pub talking to him. Trust me - he was a Hibee through and through and was a lovely man. RIP Joe!

    Up there with my greatest moments as a Hibee.

    Utter legend. Expressed in that gesture what Hibs meant to tens of thousands and that Hibs would never die.
