Hi all,
Apologies if you have seen this on FB already. It got a nice response so thought I'd also share it here on how my son and I became Hibs fans.
Great win on the weekend ! Enjoyed the match!

Good story Dan. Bet you're glad the Jambos weren't at home the day you were in town!

When I arrived in Edinburgh to work in 1993 I knew virtually nothing about football in the city so I thought I'd pick up the fixture lists of both Hibs and Hearts and see who they were playing. I called in to the old Hibs ticket office and was given a fixture list and (to my surprise) various bits of Hibs memorabilia and the story of the club (by Sue was it?) Later on that day I went to the Tiny ticket office and asked for their fixture list which was handed to me by some grumpy old git who said "That's 50p". I remember leaving thinking what a bunch of money grabbing bar stewards. It's the only 50p the yams have ever received from me apart from when I bought a ticket to cheer on MY team.

I haven't watched the video yet but WSW are my Aussie team due to the colours being the same as Milan and them having Shinji Ono playing for them. Originally Posted by Jonnyboy

Terrific video Dan. You are clearly world travellers so if/when you ever get to Texas there is always room at the Hobo Harry house for fellow Hibees..... Originally Posted by Beardanfc

I'm in that video and it was a great night. If you're on Facebook check out the Australian Hibs supporters page. There will probably be a few meeting up to watch the Rangers game in Sydney. Originally Posted by Beardanfc

Really enjoyed that. Welcome to the Hibs family. You do realise that our cup winning manager is an ex Everton captain , Alan Stubbs? Originally Posted by Beardanfc

Hi Guys,
Enjoyed the video great watch. Glad you chose us over the dark side. Like you I was puzzled as to why the Partick Thistle goal was disallowed I can only presume it was for offside or an infringement . You will come to realise in time that these are decisions that normally go against us so we will take it.You are correct the linesman was a hero/legend and undoubtedly changed the game in our favour.
I am a keen fan of the A League and watch the Australian soccer every Friday morning on BT Sports here in the UK.
I have adopted WSW as my favourite team not because of their amazing brand of football but their awesome strips- remind me of Flamenco in Brazil.
I hope their fortunes will change and can catch up with Sidney FC.
Welcome to the Hibee family.
