Not a huge turn out - but these sort of meetings arent everyones cup of tea.
Was great to hear the stories from Pat Stanton and the other former players; great stuff.

Incidentally, who was the Hearts captain for the 7-0 game?

Its mad, i couldn't tell you who their captain is now, but can remember a useless piece of information from 40 odd years ago.

Ah, then not sure then, can think of Jumbo, Cruikshank or Park......Never really took note of who played for them in that game, when reading literature about it.....

***CropleyWasGod*** · 26-03-2016 07:59 PM

Jim Brown played....he reminds me that Hearts hit the post early on :) So did Dave Clunie, . .. and Alan Anderson, who was there today.

Now deceased and a real decent guy he was.

***CropleyWasGod*** · 26-03-2016 08:05 PM

Not the best of photos, but maybe some of the oldies can pass their Saturday evening by identifying these guys...

John Fraser is to the right of Pat Stanton as we view it.

Not in any order, but others I was able to identify:-

Jackie Mac
John Fraser
Kenny Davidson
Willie Murray (came on for George Best

)
Peter Cormack
Neil Martin
Ally Macleod
Jim Scott
Alan Anderson (token Jambo)
Jim Black
Jim Herriott

A touching moment was, when Herriott described beating Celtic, my namesake had tears in his eyes....

Gotcha. Where is he in the pic? Not sure I would recognise him.

It was revealed today that only 1450 have signed-up which is not great. I feel the lack of response will see the scheme fizzle out which will be a shame. To me the important thing is creating an additional income stream to help finance better quality players on the park and not so much fan ownership. We have plenty of Hibs Fans ( Sun. 13th Mar?) but not enough Supporters.

Don't know why but went through a phase. When as a teenager playing football with mates snd you got to choose which player you were and would choose Kenny
Cant remember a lot about him though

Vague recollections of his first team debut and I think he scored with almost his first touch of the ball.

Hoped for around the 2,000 mark by now but another wee push will take us over 1,500 and promotion would surely see us break the 2,000 barrier
If that can be sustained and increased gates sponsorship merchandise etc its still worthwhile in terms of the income
