Hibs legend. His cup final performance will get better and better as the years go on. My grandchildren will think he's a god.

Could it even get any better?

One of if not the best individual performances I’ve ever seen in a Hibs jersey.

I fear this will end badly. new culture to adapt to and fresh temptations.

Is it too much to ask to remember how this Hibernian Legend performed in Time for Heroes which was on a par with the 0-7 versus the swine at the piggery?

He's moved onto new pastures and I'm certain most of us Hibernian supporters wish him all the very best.







mon the cabbage!!!

Good luck to a legend. So sad he had to go!

Nice quote Castle. What was your favourite moment of the legend Stokesy?

I’m not debating the fact that he’s forever going to be a legend in Hibs folklore, and of course I appreciate his cup final performance. I just think football fans are extremely hypocritical when it comes to transgressions we are willing to let slide in the name of football, especially when it comes to players of our own club.

Was definitely a bit OTT, and wrong to hijack a thread of people wishing him well to post my particular opinion. I’ll leave it at that.

You have a point to some extent but ultimately footballers have done far worse than has. He's not my favourite Hibs player ever but he will always be a hero to us. Some of his off the field stuff has been very poor though.

Good luck with Apollon Mr stokes. I had the misfortune of watching them last season and I have never seen a team of divers, play actors and general little girls in all my days. Jamie Walker wouldn't get a game for them as he stays on his feet too much. All the best though, and thanks for 21/5/16.

you can wish him good luck and remember all the good moments from 3 spells but still recognise this guy is on a downward spiral. when he strayed to England look what happened to him. Greece will only be more problematic.

[jax67]

All the best Stokesy!!

[Hibeewilly]

Good luck Stokesy.....phenomenal performance on 21/5/2016.......that's what I'll remember mate. Hope to see you back at ER soon

[hibs#1]

Wish him all the luck in the world will always remember those 2 goals no matter how disappointing it ended here.

[PatHead]

The word is used too often these days but a true Hibs legend. Good luck with the rest of your career.

[andybev1]

Good luck ya crazy *******!

Just a word of caution to his new team-mates - don't lend him any money.

But he did so he’ll forever be thought of highly by many (or all?) of us.

Exactly. I dare say we wouldn’t talk about 90% of people on this forum if they hadn’t wore a hibs strip.

What a ridiculous post that was.

I don't consider it ridiculous.

Stokes is a gifted footballer who was a member of the team that won the Scottish Cup in 2016 - first time in my lifetime.

For that I'm grateful - to the whole team. The way some folks are posting it looks like Stokes was the only player on the field.

He has enough history to suggest strongly that he's not exactly the sort of guy you'd want living next door to you - or working beside you.

It appears that when someone disagrees with the pack about Stokes and his 'legendary' status, the pack turns on them.

I for one am very glad Stokes has left Easter Road and Hibernian.

So sue me.

I found it ridiculous that a Hibs fan wanted to rush into a thread to point out the bleeding obvious that if someone wasn’t a hibs player, or performed cup final heroics, he wouldn’t be highly thought of on here.

I also found linking the Shaun woodburn case fairly ridiculous, as well as “not giving a ****” about his career continuing downwards.

I never said anyone had to want to be his neighbour or even call him a legend, only that the earlier post was a ridiculous one. Given your other contribution was a cheap dig about borrowing money, I’m not surprised we are not in agreement.

No sueing required - many people are glad he has now gone. Again, I never said I had any issue with that.

[Since90+2]

Stokes will go down as one of the biggest legends in the club's history due to his massive part in winning the cup final.

All the best Tony.

I know. The Greek economy is still a bit of a state. No chance of players lending any money.

Of course it is a team game and I regard the whole squad as legends. However I would go as far as saying that if it wasn't for Stokes' performance we wouldn't have won that day.

He certainly has his flaws and Lennon has my full backing that he has got rid of Stokes in the best interests of the club but I think it's important that we don't downplay how significant he was to us winning the cup.

[J-C]

Can we please get over Stokes, we thank him for that wonderful day in May but he ****ed things up with his lousy attitude and carry on. Legend like all that team but please no more threads about him and all the bickering that ensues, enough already.
