Three SC, one league. By sheer laws of probability we'll surely take a chance soon.

Great achievement.

Is this the first time ever we have made both cup finals in the same season?

Certainly must be the only time a team from the 2nd tier has done this.

Great achievement in itself, well done the team especially big Conrad.

Since we won the League Cup in 1972, Hibs' record in Finals has been a pattern of lose three then win the fourth.

We have now lost three finals in a row so, statistically speaking, we are due to win this one.

1) 74 LC - Lost
2) 79 SC - Lost
3) 85 LC - Lost
4) 91 LC - WON

1) 93 LC - Lost
2) 01 SC - Lost
3) 04 LC - Lost
4) 07 LC - WON

1) 12 SC - Lost
2) 13 SC - Lost
3) 16 LC - Lost
4) 16 SC ----- WIN?

Only if you exclude all the teams that play them regularly in the league

As an aside, we've even appeared at Hampden in a Cup Tie outside the semis or final, when we were drawn away to Queens Park (2006, I think)
