Alex and Jim Scott
Greg and Graeme Miller
Joe and Gerry Baker

Following on from JC's three sets of brothers, name 3 sets of fathers and sons to have played for Hibs

I can think of three but there could easily be more.

Two off the top of my head are John and Craig Paterson and the two Joe McBrides

Alex Miller and his boys

Whoopsie, silly me, Alex didn't play for us.

[HoboHarry]

Alex and Jordan Cropley

[scoopyboy]

Two off the top of my head are John and Craig Paterson and the two Joe McBrides

That's two I had thought of.

[scoopyboy]

Lewis and Andy Goram. Not sure Lew actually played a game though.

I had forgot about them, make that four.

[Jonnyboy]

That's two I had thought of.

Paul and Kenny Dalglish :wink: :greengrin

[scoopyboy]

Alex and Jordan Cropley

Good answer and one I hadn't thought about.

Not sure if Jordan ever played for the first team though.

[Jonnyboy]

Good answer and one I hadn't thought about.

Not competitively, same with Goram senior

[scoopyboy]

Paul and Kenny Dalglish :wink: :greengrin

Am now changing it to first team and competitive matches.:greengrin

[Jonnyboy]

Boooooooooooooooo :greengrin

[HoboHarry]

Good answer and one I hadn't thought about.

Thought I recalled him coming on as a sub and thinking it was brilliant to see Cropley playing for us again.

[HoboHarry]

You tell me I have a good answer then tell me it doesn't count. Miserable git......:greengrin

[ballengeich]

Thought I recalled him coming on as a sub and thinking it was brilliant to see Cropley playing for us again.

I also thought Jordan had an appearance as a substitute. Can anyone confirm it as a senior moment? I'm sure he was at least an unused substitute.

[Haymaker]

Nope and nope.

Anyone able to answer it? :confused:

[Jonnyboy]

Might have been in a friendly but pretty sure not a competitive match

[HoboHarry]

Might have been in a friendly but pretty sure not a competitive match
I would have thought a friendly would count. If he played for the first team then in my eyes he played for Hibs.....

[scoopyboy]

Not at all mate, it could well be you are right and I am wrong.

[Jonnyboy]

Scoopy changed the rules :greengrin

[scoopyboy]

Another decent one.

Pretty sure nobody has played for Celtic, Rangers, Hibs and Hearts. But how many can you name that has played for three of the sides.

For the sake or argument has to have been in a league match, ie no friendlies or signed but freed before playing.
