You don't need any facts to substantiate the use of the word "fact".

Only saw Joe Baker on his return so can't comment on his first spell but everyone a few years older than me idolised him.
Joe McBride Snr banged in a few when I was a young lad but have to agree Alan Gordon & Jimmy O'Rourke remain my favourite two forwards.
Derek Riordan is the only one close in recent years in my opinion.

If it has to be a partnership then Deek and Garry. If it's two different ones then Deek and Sparky. In my lifetime anyway.

They were lethal and a joy to watch.
I can only refer to players I have seen play in my lifetime, so will leave Smith and Baker for an even older generation of Hibbies.Last edited by Hi Heid Yin; 07-12-2018 at 07:45 PM.

Can only go on who I have seen in my lifetime:
Jimmy O'Rourke
Alex Edwards
And this being open to interpretation as Edwards being an attacking midfielder.
If not acceptable, then Alan Gordon.Last edited by PapillonVert; 09-12-2018 at 09:23 PM.

Gordon and O’Rourke for me.
Never saw that much of Joe Baker, but his brother Gerry was a terrific centre forward for us too.Last edited by Forza Fred; 07-12-2018 at 04:30 PM. Reason: Sp

Joe was around a month old when his family returned to Scotland
Nowadays, i suppose both would be eligible for Scotland.Last edited by Mick O'Rourke; 07-12-2018 at 07:51 PM.
