Will hibs be wearing the poppy shirts this weekend?

with it being the international break the week after, then they usually auction them off.

Nae poppys, probably didn't want to end up embarrassing the vets we certainly didn't show any fight

There didn't seem to be anything organised for this weekend right across the board in the SPL, which I found a bit surprising.

Neither Dunfermline nor Hibs had any poppy on the shirts yesterday and there was obviously no minute's silence either.

In the St Mirren-Hearts match, both teams wore poppies and there was a silence before kick off.

The Rangers and Dundee Utd players wore poppies, not sure if there was a silence beforehand though.

In the Kilmarnock-Inverness match, I don't think either side wore poppies but I saw one of the photos from the game and the Kilmarnock mascot seemed to have a poppy embroidered into his shirt but the players didn't.

I know it would normally have happened next week but given that this is the last weekend of club football before Remembrance Sunday, due to the international break next week, I would have thought that every club would have observed the minute's silence before their games this weekend.

Every club in the Premiership did it this weekend. :dunno:

The thing is they really got behind it last year, every player in the 1st team squad had a poppy shirt that was signed and auctioned (almost 30 shirts if i recall) seems strange to go from that to nothing at all
