Guessing this is an updated version of the 'We are Hibernian' book that was published in 2011ish as that one featured Charlie Reid, Dougray Scott, Irvine Welsh, Grant Stott and Fish?

I think the publishers need to improve their marketing approach when people are left on here "guessing" if it's a new book or not....Come on guys, if you are reading this, help us out! New Book? Same book in Paperback, Updated Version??

It is indeed an updated version of the original 2011 book but this time in paperback. The new version has added interviews with Pat Nevin, Mickey Weir and Ger Freedman. Many of the original chapters are updated and it has a new photo section etc. It is also cheaper (£9.99) than the hardback. I hope that will answer your question as I have been busy preparing for the launch tonight:
Also a nice review today here: http://www.scotzine.com/2015/12/book-review-we-are-hibernian-the-fans-story/

Still places for the launch tonight as well if you fancy an early Hibee flavoured Sunday event. As I will be away soon you can phone the hibs club on 0131 661 3157 to reserve or just pop down as I'm sure we can accomodate

I've got that many Hibs books! There must be more Hibs books than Hearts books surely?

A big thank you to everyone that came down to the launch last night! Mickey Weir and Paul Kane both chatted with great honesty and insight during the Q&A. Brilliant stories and tales about their apprenticeship: Eric Schaedler, Benny Brazil, Ray Wilkins and much more. Real gents! I had a great laugh with the Raffle too. A big thank you to the Brand New Originals who did a great job on the music front. just a great night but still kind of relieved to get through it all. A big CHEERS to all involved!

Defintely yes to that question. Would be an interesting statistic actually. I would research it tonight if I had the energy but maybe there is someone else out there who has an answer?
