Shaun's family would like to invite all of the Hibernian family to participate in a rousing minutes applause in the 34th minute of the game against the Arabs this Friday night. Thanks for the hundreds of wonderful messages, e-mails, texts etc of support that have been sent from Players, Directors and the Supporters who make Hibernian the extraordinary Club that Shaun loved. What a great bunch of people.

This is a terribly sad story that I have been following on .net. Although I don'the know Shaun or any of his family, I will certainly be participating. What strikes me is the post from Big G and the obvious comfort this gesture from the Hibs family will bring to G and his loved ones at this truly terrible moment in their lives. RIP Shaun I salute your tremendous courage GGTTH.

Thoughts are with you and your family mate. I'm sure the Hibee family will do you proud.

Although I was aware of Shaun's story I am not a regular bounce visitor so hadn't seen the thread on their forum.
I read it the other day and I am not ashamed to say it moved me to tears whilst at the same time I found it hugely inspirational.
I simply cannot comprehend the courage and dignity with which Shaun and his family have shared their journey.
I know from your comments Big G how proud you are of him and not that it will mean anything from someone you don't know but you have absolutely every right to be.
His first post said Live Forever, I have no doubt that his memory and courage will do so.
It has certainly made me think about how unimportant most things really are.
My deepest condolences to you all
George

An often overused term but proper Hibs class from John McGinn and John Doolan and his partner. Originally Posted by GORDONSMITH7

What a great character, always made me laugh when in his company. My thoughts go out to all his family, delighted Shaun got to witness Hibs win the Cup. I will be applauding with all my might on Friday.

Eddie Turnbull, was bang on the money when he spoke about "Hibs Class".
My thoughts are very much with you and the family at this extremely sad time.

I know that 'Hibs Class' has almost become a clique but Ned's words have been proven to me to be spot on. Originally Posted by Leithenhibby

What is the significance of the 34th minute? I didn't know him and was just curious?
