Elias Wagner, since released I think.

Jim Brown? (Think it was "Jim")

Yup. Went to the Pars after he left ER and had his knee wrecked by a nasty wee St Johnstone thug called (IIRC?) Pelosi.

Pettigrew was on our books as a youngster before he went to Motherwell, then Hearts.

Not a player, but....

....the great Willie McCartney managed Hearts from 1919 until 1935, when he resigned under pressure from the Hearts chairman and board who wanted someone more "hands-on".

After a year out of the game, he came to Hibs, where IIRC he didn't do TOO badly, holding the club together through WW2 and signing one or two decent players in the process - players like Gordon Smith, Bobby Combe, Lawrie Reilly, Eddie Turnbull and Wilie Ormond....

Hibs came second in both League and Cup in season 46-47, and were going well the following season when McCartney collapsed at a Scottish Cup tie and died later that night. Hugh Shaw, the club trainer, took the team on and they won the League that season with Rangers runners-up. Shaw completed the Famous Five by siging Nicker Johnstone the following season.

Gordon Smith played for both clubs as well, of course.

Peter Cormack

Think the man in your Avatar may have done so as well.

Yup. Stevie was a capture from the Hearts, too. :agree:

He was on their books, but I'm not sure whether he played for their first team - a bit like Pettigrew, but travelling in the opposite direction.

Thomson Allan

You're right - forgot about him.

Peter Cormack

Thankfully he was only on the ground staff while playing for Tynecastle boys club.

[superfurryhibby]

Peter Cormack

Surely not, one for wikipedia.


Just checked and that is not the case

[ancient hibee]

Peter Cormack was definitely at Tynie-he was expected to sign for them-quite a fuss when he joined us-as there was when Eric Stevenson did the same.

Ian Crawford a fine player-and guy-went the other way.

Lawrence Tierney

:agree:

Was he not registered to them on S-forms while playing for Tynecastle Boys' Club? He signed for us in 1963 - I think he was one of Walter Galbraith's last signings?

Stevie was with Edina Hearts, I think, and signed for us around the same time? I'm pretty sure he was on S-forms for Hearts too.

IIRC, Hearts considered Hibs had broken some sort of 'gentlemen's agreement' in signing these guys from Boys' Clubs that were unofficially feeders for Hearts - the same way Hutcheson Vale was seen as a feeder for us?

[Greentinted]

Willie Irvine

One of only two players who represented all 3 senior Edinburgh clubs (The other being Darren Jackson)

[joebakerforever]

IIRC there were a few folk at the time who reckoned Joe Baker had initially been a trialist at Tynecastle before doing the decent thing.

[coco22]

Elias Wagner, since released I think.

did he not end up on x factor?

Peter Cormack signed for Hibs on 18th August 1962 from Tynecastle Ath. and made his first team debut (scoring in a 2-1 defeat) on 24th November 1962 away to Airdrie - his next game was not until 26th October 1963.

Edward (Eric) Stevenson signed for Hearts from Edina Hearts on 18th June 1960 and subsequently signed for Hibs on 26th October 1960 making his first team debut on 8th October 1960 away to St Johnstone.

I think that means that Peter Cormack was never a Hearts player then!

[1two]

Everyones forgot about Darren Jackson

[fat freddy]

we have 'one' in our first team just now....danny galbraith.

[Greentinted]

Everyones forgot about Darren Jackson

Apart from the posters #20 and #44 :greengrin

Peter Cormack was never registered as a Hearts player according to the Scottish League Players Registration records

Neither Eric or Peter ever played for Yams. In both cases ( from memory ) the players had to fight to secure their release from PBS. Eric's case was particularly difficult & again, from memory, may have involved legal proceedings. Eric was known as The Rebel for many years after both for that action & his James Dean/Elvis style barnet!
PS, Brian, think there's a wee mistake above, you have Eric making his debut before he signed!

Should be 6th October :doh:

Eric was born on Christmas Day 1942 so he would have been under 18 when he signed for Hearts - maybe that's how he got away :dunno:

[ballengeich]

Willie Irvine

I think Thomson Allan was a third.

[hibbybrian]

I think Thomson Allan was a third.

I reckon you're correct with that. :agree:

According to the registration records Thomson Allan signed for Meadowbank on 24th Janaury 1979 and played 2 games before signing for Hearts on 23rd February 1979. :thumbsup:

[Seanair]

Barry Roy


Roy Barrie (spelling?). Also with Dunfermline when they had a good team.

[duffers]

Zibi Malkowski......he did didn't he.....come on, he did surely :greengrin

Don't think he was ever at Hibs :dunno:

[superfurryhibby]

Don't think he was ever at Hibs :dunno:

Roy Barry signed c1975. Stayed for a short time. I think Turnbull saw him as someone who could provide a bit of steel in the centre of defence. Jim Black was released and Barry and Derek Spalding stepped into the breach. Neither lasted long.

Barry 18 months.

Spalding 5/6 years.

If we'd had Roy Barry instead of Jim Black throughout the early 70's we'd have won more trophies than we did IMHO. Jim Black AFAIK is still stuck in Dixie Dean's back pocket!

[eastmainsmsh]

Peter Marinello and Willie Jamieson

:agree:

Dixie Deans almost destroyed Hibs on his own during the period he was up against Cilla.
