Wiki does have it 2-1.

Did they do it another time?

Or was it an EOS game I'm thinking of?

Or are the drugs wearing off/kicking in?

[The 90+2]

Ayr Utd in the League Cup Semi final was a shocker.

Scottish Cup wise I remember we got horsed off Dunfermline big time in a cup replay early 00s, sure it was the round after Brebner scored a hatrick?

Ross County hurt like hell too.

2-1 Stirling Albion in a replay was a shocker, as was the Ross County replay defeat.

Regularly run past Chris Jackson’s house when out jogging. I’ve still not forgiven him for that evening

Yes, Clydebank - surrounded by many houses , always had an extra spark about it....

Yip! Long time ago now but remember there was a lot of trouble after the game the incident took place at a local tube station on the way back to the Weedge both sets of supporters ended up chucking stones at each other You can see the railtrack behind the goals

Some cup Memories before Saturday

Raith game on Saturday has a whole lot of danger signs for me , due to our current situation

That said, there have been many along the years

What’s your memories of underdog victories against us in the Cup..Or near misses...

One that stands out for me , was a Scottish cup defeat at old Kilbowie against Clydebank- who I’m sure where one or two divisions below us at the time - wasn’t a great Hibs side to be fair - think we went out to a meek 1-0 defeat.

Always liked going to that ground for some reason though !

Cup days used to have a real excitement and cache over the years - slightly changed now- with some obvious amazing exceptions... Any other mementoes against the smaller clubs ?

Was it against RR that Houchy stuck the Vickies up to the fans ? Happy days :)

found it - hadn’t read this article interesting read

Think that was the game Arthur Duncan got injured, then never kicked another ba' for us? If I'm right, pretty sad end to Arthur's Hibs career! I was definitely there anyway.

Posted ma scarf through the letter box of Gordon Marshall’s hairdressers shop at the West End later that night on the way home

I do remember feeling enormously gutted. Probably being so young was the reason more than anything.

yes. League Cup Quarter Final that - wasn't there - but do remember it.....put out AET.. we won 1-0 at ER in a two legged game

Had a look at the Hibs team that day:

McArthur, Brownlie, Schaedler, Stanton, Barry, Blackley, Edwards, Higgins, Harper, Munro & Duncan - Decent 11!

Was this the one where Simon Murray's dad Gary scored against us and we were so impressed we signed him?

I was at the ER game but memory isn't what it was!

Are you getting confused with a game we played against East Fife? We signed Durie after that one I think.

Was there ever a Scottish Cup game where one of our players went in goal in a replay? I’m sure this happened mid 90s and I was listening on my walkwan.

You're right, as is CWG. Gary scored against us for Montrose in 79/80 season league cup but we managed a win! Signed for Hibs thereafter.

Where did the decades go?

Was it bizarrely (wild stab) Darren Jackson? Or Farrell ?

Did Andy Goram not get sent off in a league cup tie? And we might have lost on pens? Or my mind could be making this up.Clydebank at ER is what im thinking.

[Hibeesmad]

Ross County replay was horrible. I remember pies getting launched at Ian Murray who was on the floor distraught. Journey home was horrible, ended up with swine flu in the following days too. The things we go through to support our team.

Goram scored the winning pen in a shoot out v Clydebank after a 1-1 draw in the LC. I was safely back in Mathers at the top of Broughton St by that stage 😁

Yes it was they scored a stoppage time winner from being 0-1 down after Stokes had given us the lead. They scored 2 goals in the last 20 minutes, there was trouble after the game as a county fan invaded the pitch holding a Hearts top which led to fighting behind the main stand. Brutal journey home that.

Was in the county end with my brother there was more than one with hearts stuff visible one young dafty close to me was getting fairly abusive pelters from a few county stalwarts around him. I took a few comments in the mallard here to see your big team but nothing like he got. to be honest having watched them in Highland league county's run to the final was enjoyable once we were out

I'd add dunfermline semi final in 07 too

No goals in 180 mins with the likes of murphy, jones, sproule, boozy, Brown, whitty, benji, zemmama, Fletcher is ridiculous!!

Celtic were torture in the final as well, pretty sure they won it late on
