Anthony Stokes won that for us

[Hillsidehibby]

That is all

[ehf]

That is all

:agree:

[AgentDaleCooper]

Every bit as much of a legend as grey IMO. Let's also not forget henderson's 2 perfect corners, and cummings' assist for the first. Every one of them is a legend. THANK YOU!!!

[Green Man]

He's been getting better and better the past few weeks and it all came together today. A superb performance.

[MWHIBBIES]

He is a Hibs legend

[Wilson]

Who scored the winner? Seriously though we had a squad of heroes today - and we needed every one of them.

[Northernhibee]

The entire team did their job today. Really not a day for singling out any individual.

[CmoantheHibs]

Think Stokes was fantastic today but I think it was the fact we played as a unit that won it for us today.Every player was superb.When teams come to play football against us we have a hell of a team and can match anyone in the country.

[Hi Heid Yin]

Stokes was a man on fire. He was pinging shots at goal from every angle and at every opportunity. Tavernier ( who is without doubt a great player) was left in his wake time and time again and simply could not live with our Tony.
MOM for me without question.
It was like Stokes wanted to make up for so many goals he had missed since his arrival. He wanted to demonstrate to all his critics ( and I include myself amongst those at times) that he was far from finished and still capable of delivering a breath-taking performance.

It was a great team performance, no failures, but Stokes pissed all over the Huns; we have been waiting on this since January and it was the difference today.

[#FromTheCapital]

Thanks Anthony

[Dinkydoo]

I said exactly the same thing earlier today.

After went 2 -1 we pressed brilliantly and got the two deserved goals we needed, but apart from that, Stokes was on fire all game.

[Onion]

Finally, at long last the real Anthony Stokes turned out for us.... Worth the wait. Legend.

I don't want to be a prick but I picked my username about 7 years ago and today it proved its worth?

No, he's still a very naughty bhoy....💚💚💚💚💚💚

[CallumHibs07]

Definitely.

Also, not Stevenson's biggest fan but the sheer joy on his face when big Grayzo lifted the cup was amazing to see. Deserves it :flag:

Respect!!

[AZhibee]

Ate Tavernier's lunch he did. Simply pushed him aside and scored the 2nd.

[ACLeith]

MOM in the last 2 finals he's played in. 2013 he ripped us apart, 2016 he made up for that.

[lyonhibs]

Played to the same standard for us as he did against us in 2013. You can't buy class and he has it in spades.

[Pete]

If you can't buy it, borrow it.

I want a street named after this guy.

[Thecat23]

Man was unreal and that's why Stubbs brought him in. Stubbs and Stokes will no be remembered as legends along with the rest and rightly so.

[jakedance]

A great team performance but I agree he had the extra bit of class we needed to win the cup. As we've seen the margins between success and failure are so small. Stokes was the difference.

Great that Henderson came on and played his part too - he's never hidden his love for Celtic but he'd run through a wall for Hibs, brilliant attitude for a loan signing.

[Stokesy's on fire]

He had a great game very proud of him he has answered his critics in style.i really hope he he's with us next season

Brilliant haha

[tanfield]

He ripped Tavernier a new one yesterday

[buktapurple79]

Tony Stokes Hibernian LEGEND. Thank you Ronny Deila!

[ED Hibee]

Great performance from that tackle in the first minute, his 2 well taken goals, winning the corner for that goal, constant running and willingness to present for the ball right to the very end. One of the best performances I have seen in a Hibs top in a long while!

[Haymaker]

Think a few new borns in 9months time will be getting called David or Antony!

My uncle promised my wee cousin at the start of the season that she could get a dog if Hibs won the Scottish Cup.

It's being named Gray.

Good lad!

[Eyrie]

My mother can't stand "that IRA-loving idiot" and even she was singing his praises when we spoke after the game.

Stokes may not have scored as many goals as we'd expected, but his all-round play has been excellent and his two goals yesterday were worth waiting for.

[Sammy7nil]

The entire team did their job today. Really not a day for singling out any individual.

Ithink we should defo single him out he was simply unplayable at times and his performance rated 12 out of 10 for me.

[inglisavhibs]

That is all

The whole squad won it and yesterday they all played played their part, not a failure among them.

Thoroughly deserved and don't forget the tough road we had to get there.

Looking forward to Leith Walk today!

[rotherhamrob]

That tackle set the tone for me, I don't think Holt fancied it after that.

[Gettin' Auld]

That is all
Football's a team game, everyone played their part.

[iwasthere1972]

That is all

Absolutely. Loved it when he said something along the lines of in an interview after the match that it's one of the best days of his footballing career.

Thank you Anthony. :aok:

[kevo1875]

Great performance but I can honestly say we had no failures in the team that's what won it a team of legends ggtth

[Galahibby]

Did he get MotM? The whole team were immense, but Stokes was just that little bit better. I don't think I've ever seen a Hibs team with more heart (scuse the expression!)

He got Sky's man of the match.

Not sure if any announcement was made at the game, I certainly never heard one.

Great comments from him and fair play to Kenny Miller. Classy from him.

[rcarter1]

Monster Performance! Mr Stokes, I believe you are now officially a Legend. :flag::flag::flag:

Oh, and

:cup:

[Whos-the-poster]

will forever be my favourite player :flag:

[ALF TUPPER]

They all won it for me. The squad management and fans .... every round of the competition. Yesterday was very special.

[biotech]

Any chance of keeping him next season?

[BroxburnHibee]

Any chance of keeping him next season?

Suspect it will be no chance.

[adhibs]

any links to the interview he done after the match?

[number9dream]

Any chance of keeping him next season?

He's a free agent this summer, right?

After that performance, he might have a long queue of clubs after him.

We should be making him an offer, although our chances are slim.

[iwasthere1972]

Cheers. He seemed delighted

[iwasthere1972]

Cheers. He seemed delighted

He did. Wonder if he fancies staying with us on loan.

[Jonny1875]

Absolute hero, gave it everything hopefully bump into him in the summer, he's usually in a bar near me blocked 😂

Yes it was a team performance but for me, Stokes was the difference between the sides.
:singing: Thank you, thank you.

[LancsHibs]

Thank you Anthony that was incredible!

[jacomo]

He is a Hibs legend

Not been Stokes biggest fan but he was immense yesterday. Up for it from first minute to last. Did everything we needed from him and more.

Heroes, all of them.

[Holmesdale Hibs]

Anthony Stokes (or Anthony Stokes On Loan From Celtuc, as the sky sports commentator calls him) was absolutely brilliant yesterday. He was right up for it from the start and was the difference between the teams. Take a bow.

[Joe Baker2]

agree. He stepped up to the plate and delivered when we really needed him.

[Turkish Green]

Praise where praise is due. I have said on many an occasion on here that Stokes disrupted the team since he joined in January resulting in dropped points.

But, no question he was on fire yesterday. Two goals and got the corner for the winner. Must have impressed Brendan Rodgers (if he was watching)

[Hutchie]

Stokes was amazing yesterday. I remember everyone slating him for Falkirk although he played well and slated me for saying so.

Anyway, I'm away for my Stokes' love in on Stokes' slope!

Stokes' on fire.....
Na na na na......

[corby hibee]

Everyone played there part but like some say stokes was the big difference for us, saved his best to last, i hope rodgers dont see a future for him but can't see that after yesterdays performance.

[70KevinHFC62]

He set the tone in the first 15 seconds when he went in a bit late on whatever little hun it was. It was a great performance all round
