Coldest Hibs Game

[Waxy]

To go along with the hottest game thread. The St Johnstone semi at the pbs recently springs to mind. Brrrrrrrrr.

[tamig]

The St J game at ER with the Malteser in charge. A dire game in Baltic conditions. But very well refereed.

[hibsfan7]

The last hibs v celtic game at easter road it was baltic

[jacomo]

So many. Where do you start?

I remember the derby where Wotherspoon scores the only goal as particularly cold.

[Cletus]

I recall a game at Dens Park around 92/93 which I think ended in a 1-1 draw and Simon Stainrod scored directly from a corner. It was ****ing Baltic and my hands actually went blue that day. Anyone else remember the game in question?

[guthrie01]

A recent one I can recall would be our last visit to St.Johnstone with the rain pouring down, felt like my feet had turned to ice by the end of the match

[seanshow]

I'll go for Falkirk away in the championship, we had half the main stand as well as behind the goal.
and the temperature plus wind chill were brutal....i don't even think it was winter either lol

[Greencore]

1.1 vs Motherwell, I believe riordan scored to make it 1-1 at their stadium. league cup semi final vs st Johnstone few seasons ago

[SeanWilson]

Celtic at ER in December.... walking to the ground felt like an arctic expedition.

[we are hibs]

Bohemians friendly at Easter road. One of the worst games I've ever witnessed too. Would've wanted a
refund if it wasn't free to get in

[weecounty hibby]

Hibs v Man U. December game when pretty much every other club in Britain was cancelled due to freezing conditions. Airdrie away early 90s. Snowed all game. St Js away match abandoned due to snow.

[Superfurry72]

Away to Caley Thistle in late December 2005. I couldn’t feel my legs. Not only that, we lost 2-0 with a nothing performance where we lost two terrible goals in the first 10 minutes.

[BILLYHIBS]

1-0 Celtic at ER a few years back(Leigh Griffiths game) It was Baltic but at least Sparky warmed us up.

GGTTH

Ditto Man Utd game. I had to leave during the second half because it was so cold.

[Diclonius]

I remember a 2-2 draw v Dundee United at Easter Road (under Collins, came back from 0-2 down) that was so cold I actually had to go inside the stand to warm up at one point. It probably didn't help that I was 15 and didn't understand the importance of wearing more than one layer.

Midweek in Inverness. Humped 3-0, snow storms or the way up to Inverness on the A9 and absolutely freezing when we got there.

journey home turned into gallows humour that day - as we had to laugh at such a poor day/evening out...miserable performance and yes very cold!

[One Day]

Don't know about the coldest, (there have been lots) but the wettest was Cowdenbeath in the championship.
By the time I got home I was literally soaked to the skin, everything I had on was soaked

That was what came into my head. I think we won 1-0 but it was one of the worst days I’ve ever had watching football. I was standing at the back against the wall and I actually turned round and faced the wall for about 15 mins to stop the rain driving into my face.

[Stuart93]

Being soaked through at Cowdenbeath a few years back is certainly up there for me

Same with Alloa away in the piss rain.

[Wembley67]

4.4 at bus shelter...had to do a quick search, I can't find the temperature on the 2nd Jan 2003 but in aviemore that week it was -18.6c!!

[Smartie]

A couple of trips to Pittodrie Spring to mind.

I remember once it was the 1st March and it looked reasonably sunny so I didn't take a jacket and nearly froze. It wasn't that it was that cold, just that I was underprepared.

There was another time when it was snowy up there - I opened the car door, got hit by the wall of cold and nearly drove straight back down the road.

I left the Celtic game earlier this season because I was cold and missed our comeback.

[Edinburgher]

Scottish Cup game v Brechin at ER (1-0 - John Collins), absolutely awful game too.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Take your pick from a multitude of winter midweek games up at Aberdeen over the years.

I did the same lol

[NthCarolinaHibs]

Coldest for me was away to Cowdenbeath in the Cup,when they scored in the first minute..never even warmed up to the eventual Hibs 3-2 win ...

[AgentDaleCooper]

4-1 at easter road against dundee in mowbray's first season. (Not the 4-4!)

My hands were genuinely bleeding from the cold.

[Cabbage East]

I swear it was the 2-2 at Tynie on the way to winning the cup 2 years ago. It was absolutely brutal!
