    I’m sure that was in a 2-0 defeat to Airdrie i was the mascot that day.
    Definitely Motherwell, I was at Fir Park that day. I can vaguely remember Millen was not bad in the sticks??

    My first ever Hibs game.! A night game 1963/64.? I was about 4 and was taken by my dad and uncles, Dunbar end.

    I just remember Willie Wilson coming on with a bandage on his head (the floodlights really made him stick out) and running around on the right wing.? And my dad and uncles all laughing.

    Can you tell me any other details about it.? We won 1-0 I think.
    I didn’t think it was a night game, but You could be right as time and the memory etc...

    Remember Willie running ‘up the slope’ on the right wing with a bandage on his head.

    Attended the EOS shield game at Tynecastle too....and Corky tipped a few over the bar, but we all thought a low shot might have eluded him.

    This has been a great thread.

    Reminds me of all the good things about .net,

    People of all ages (though mostly old 😄) and all around the world, sharing their memories of watching the Hibs.

    I just assumed it was a night game because of the floodlights picking up Willies huge white bandage on his heid in my very young memory. But, aye, it could have been the second half of a Saturday game in winter. I’d like to know, if anyone can confirm when exactly it was.

    I'm sure it was a night game

    It was a league gemme around '83 I think. Sure we lost 3-2, Ralphy Callaghan might've missed a penalty to give us a draw? If I recall correctly, Arthur did ok!
    I'll meet you halfway. I reckon it was SC QF - ibrox March '81 in a 3-1 defeat.

    I miss the rogue element of an outfield player going in goals. Hardly see it anymore thanks to sub keepers. It introduced an air of the unexpected to often dull games on rare occasions. But nostalgia's not what it used to be etc.

    I seem to mind Theo Snelders being sent off at Easter Road for punching Keith Wright after he'd been brought down in the box (I don't think Snelders necessarily agreed with the decision). Brian Irvine (maybe) went in goals and saved our penalty (canny mind who took it). Danny Lennon then scored a winner in the last minute. 1991-ish?

    One of us could Google it, but where would be the fun in that?

    What I do recall about the gemme where Arthur went in goals was that we'd just got a Betamax video recorder and the highlights were on Scotsport on the Sunday. I didnae tape it cos I didnae know how (much to the frustration of an uncle of mine, who has posted in this thread, and was no doubt too busy playing bowls, bevvying or a combination of both to tape it in his ain hoose 😁).

    We didn't get a recorder until 1983 so it must've been then. There you go, conclusive proof!

    Was it Phil Jagielka who used to cover as a goalkeeper for Sheffield United? Warnock never bothered naming a sub keeper as he preferred the extra outfield option and the player I'm sure was Jagielka covered a couple of times. Sure he used to train with the keepers once a week as well.

    I miss the days of 2 or 3 subs and you only really saw sub keepers in cup finals. Even then some managers used to risk going without, remember Robbie Winters playing pretty much the whole game in goals for Aberdeen in the 2000 cup final.

    I remember I was standing in the old enclosure under the main stand, I remember Arthur Duncan going in goals at the Broomloan End and I remember him conceding a goal within 30 seconds or so of him going in goals. I also remember it being a Scottish Cup tie. If my memory is correct (that is not guaranteed these days) Jackie Mac scored our only goal. We didn't play rangers in the SC '83. I can't find any of that in google though.

    Over to you.

    Arthur let in a goal almost immediately but did fine after that. We did miss a penalty and Jackie Mac scored an OG with a 40yd passback (Jim McArthur was at the opposite side of his box).

    Cheers for that. Don't remember Jackie's OG but sounds a cracker! There you go, we must have got our first video recorder in '82 then...

    I remember watching the highlights on the tv and the commentator (Arthur Montford?) said something like "Jackie McNamara, one of the most reliable players in Scottish football" just as he made the pass back. Then it was "Oh goodness! What have I said?"

    Fanous game that Kenny got injured and Jagielka has to take over in goals early on vs Arsenal. Sure the game ended 1-0 or 1-1 with Nade scoring for united. Jagielka had the game of his life!!

    I seem to recall Paul Kane playing in goal for one of the Tenents Sixes tournaments.

    Ha ha - would've been Arthur Montford if it was Scotsport right enough 😁. Archie was BBC Sportscene.
