Almost missed this thread & would have looked a right tube, because I was going to post a question along similar lines.
Anyone aware of another Scotland team/squad that had so many Hibees, ex or otherwise in it?

Hibs twice have had 5 players in the team, both times in 1948.

And his shot that just went past the post.

And his run to the by-line and cut-back that noone got on the end off.

It shows which club's directors and coaching staff have been exerting themselves to develop new talent over the past few years ....

You can add Deek as well - any justice, he'll be back in the squad soon.

Ian Murray was involved until his illness/injuries too.

If you count Hartley, that gives us 10 outfield players in and around the Scotland set-up, all at ER early in their careers.

:agree: Till the Scotland team is picked on merit and not based on who you play for ,I`m afraid I will have little interest in the Scottish International set up.

Afraid i'm with you on that one. :boo hoo:

You look at the likes of:

Brown
Thompson
Fletcher
Whittaker
O'Connor

All ex Hibbys that walk into the squad.

Then you look at the likes of Riordan and Ian Murray, they come back to Hibs and get no mention what so ever. :grr:

Shame they're all ex-Hibbys. Not really something to get THAT excited about is it?

Not really but it's a good testament to our youth setup.
