St Pats Hibs club 25 year anniversary of skol cup win

[ronaldo7]

A fantastic night was had by all this evening at the Hibs club, where the team that wouldn't die made an appearance.

Some great stories from players and backroom staff, and all superbly organised by the St Pat's committee. Thank you.

The Scottish cup made an appearance too.

Fantastic night.
These St Pat gadgies surely know how to get things done.

Great atmosphere and the pies were far better than those available at ER.

It was a great night and well done to all who organised. Fantastic night

May I ask a question without appearing rude to the branch. Why don't the branch run buses to away games? With such a turnout tonight I was surprised to hear they don't

My personal belief was supporters branches were there to primarily get their members to games

Not a rude question Blaster. We do run buses to games, sometimes getting together with the Hibees Bounce. I had the pleasure of being bus convener on 1 of our 2 buses to the Cup Final this year and what an experience that was. One of the highlights of the day was taking a detour along Gorgie Road on the way home

You're right though, what a brilliant night tonight was, and how good was Luke Shanley of Sky Sports

Luke's question to Brian Hamilton broight the hoose down! Hamilton took it in good spirit and spoke really well.

He did look nervous walking in though!

Aye, some memorable comments and one liners from the players and Manager.

I thought Alex Miller came across particularly well. I was never that keen on his style of football at the time but he clearly had the respect of the players. His mentioning of the stand off between Wallace Mercer and Sir Tom Farmer during Mercer's take over bid was particularly interesting - Sir Tom just told Mercer to go away as he had far more money than him

I went to a club 86 dinner to celebrate the 21st anniversary of the 72 League Cup win. Alex Miller was still manager and I has exactly the same sentiment as you at the time.

What did he ask?

Sounds like a brilliant night, will there be footage on the St Pat's website?

So Brian coming back into Edinburgh after winning the cup must have been brilliant. I guess the first question I need to ask you.......

Why the **** did you sign for hearts 😂😂😂😂

This!

Nothing more to add apart from when Luke Shanley said that this will make a change from talking about Joey fu**in' Barton. Comedy gold at the time.

[tigerted]

Yes, the evening was videod and will appear soon for viewing. We may just have to edit it a little, so that no-one takes offence! 😇

[Stantons Angel]

A well organised night out and so good to see so many of that team turn out or the evening.

Luke was brilliant and is an ever impressionable young man. (cut out the swearing tho)

He used to travel with his mum on Maudes bus with me many moons ago, she would be telling everyone how wonderful he is because of her!!

Thought young Mickey came over very well and he spoke with a passion about his team and his club.

Its just a shame that winning that other cup this year has put this achievement in the background, none the less a wonderful effort after a very difficult time.
