What an amazing night it was, very well put together from the set up to the amount of research and how it was presented.

One of the highlights was Stotty asking Eddie Turnbull who we enjoyed playing against the most - "Rangers, we used to take the piss out of them" Classic quote that i hope doesnt get censored or deleted.

Well done to everyone involved for making it such a great night.

Just start one mate. You never know you might land lucky and we'll all think you're in the know. I'm 99% certain that would happen.

i have to agree that it was a very successful night and enjoyed by everyone around me.

The work that goes in to setting these sort of things up sometimes goes unnoticed but thanks must go to Amanda and Fyfe, the Hibs Historical society and the Former Players Association for their efforts. Well done to all of you!:top marks

Have to agree, a great night followed by a win on Saturday. Fantastic trip home :agree:

The only question mark over the whole weekend was the inclusion of Jackie McNamara in the inaugural Hall of Fame players. Whit:confused:

So many greats and we picked him :confused:

I agree, I too was rather puzzled by that, don't get me wrong Jackie was a great player and servant but hardly hall of fame material given his love for smeltic

Think "his love of celtic" is a wee bit much. Jackie is seen at Hibs games everywhere and he went back to watching Celtic as his son played there.
I think Hibs got a great deal letting Paddy go in the Twighlight of his career and we got a a very good player for many years in the shape of Jackie Mc.

I do agree he should not have gone in the first wave but as he is alive and stays in Ediburgh and was able to attend that may have had a bearing. :wink:

Assume there would be an explanation on the night as to how the initial inductees were selected. Have to say I find it rather strange that Michael Whelahan was included (correctly so) but not Canon Hannan (or Father Hannan as he would have been then) when all the club histories I've read credit them both with founding the club.

Anything come to light about that?
