A Wee Helping Hand

[stanton_4]

I'm trying to find out the goal scorers from a couple of Hibs games. First was against Clyde on 24/04/71 and we won 5-1. Second was against Dumbarton on 03/03/73 and we won 5-0. Can anyone help or at least point me in the direction where I could find out?

I used to keep a journal in those days and my rather sparse, end-of-season entry for the Clyde match reports that Hibs started shakily!

Cropley was man of the match.

Turns out the Clyde game I was looking for was on 03/11/73 in which Pat Stanton scored a hat-trick. The other was indeed the game you gave me the stats for Saltire. Those were my first 2 Hibs games. I was only 10 and my father (not a footballing man) took me to them. I remember being somewhat annoyed he didn't take me regularly although now I realise just what a wrench it was for him to take me at all since he never enjoyed the experience in the slightest lol.

Ha cheers mate. My eternal memories from those two games are Cropley and Stanton. Weirdly though I remembered the score of the Clyde game wrongly. I thought it was 6-1. It was 38 years ago mind and my memory is failing fast. :confused:

Not a bad couple of results to start off your Hibs supporting years :greengrin

A Pat Stanton hat-trick :not worth

Indeed... how could I not be a Hibby after those games.
Incidentally I named my band after the great man. He signed his Dream Team book to Stanton from Stanton. To say I was chuffed would be an understatement. :greengrin
