I thought back then was meant to be the glory days of the SPL when the mercenaries arrived - shocking standard.

Jesus what a honking hibs team that was. Have tried to forget the fact that Andy walker ever played for us.

**Joe6-2** · 18-03-2018 12:54 PM

Awful stuff! Great run and cross from Kevin Harper for Wa*kers goal

**SirDavidsNapper** · 18-03-2018 01:11 PM

Abysmal Hibs team bar Pat

Was that not the improbable draw that gave that bald **** Duffy longer in the hotseat and thus ultimately relegated us?

We where on top all game winning 1-0 they got a spawny equaliser as per and just when it looked done Harper scored a peach outside the box.

48 fking quid that almost cost me. Three tickets and, if you don't get money before kick off and you're two down as early as we were...good luck trying to get the cash back!

Great 3pm Sat afternoon derby. I’m I right in saying the Benji winner match was the last sat afternoon derby? Probably last ever.

Remember it well as was my first derby! My old man almost killed me celebrating Harpers winner!

You could be right there. There isn't one since that springs to mind.

remember the games walker played well during his loan spell . Big Basher couldve had a better career underrated

Spawny ?? If i remember it was a decent free kick from Robert son,fwiw one of my favourite Hibs games the celebration when Harper scored was mental.

Robertson free-kick, and Harper run from half way line before slotting it away.

Think Fulton scored twice in the opening 10 minutes?

**One Day** · 19-03-2018 07:11 AM

I remember leaving that game thinking that's the result that changes everything and that the fight back was on. How wrong

Yeah, I remember watching loads of pies being launched at him from the Roseburn having just woken up on New Years morning.

***KeithTheHibby*** · 19-03-2018 11:23 AM

Closest I have ever come to being chucked out of a match, was totally smashed and raging at our first half performance.
Was getting food just after ht and heard and huge roar thinking that's it, 3-0 down only to look up the tunnel to see the yams on their *****. the rest is history.
They went quite close to winning the league that year? Those 5 dropped points to us wouldn't have helped

Anyway still a ***** season, we got relegated and they won the cup.

It went on for ages after the game - Walking in a Harper wonderland. One of my favourite Derbies

I thought no danger so looked it up and you were right. They would've been 2nd and just 1 behind Celtic who ended Rangers going for 10 in a row.

They did win the cup.

A very good Hearts team, best one in my life time.

Yeah they were an excellent team. McCann and Hamilton were a handful. Cameron, Adam, Salvatori, Bruno etc then young players like Naismith and Ritchie. Decent.
