Best Home Grown Team

[Clarence]

Assembling a team of players who all came through the youth set up. It strikes me that we have not produced a decent keeper, at least in the last 30-40 year’s. My era begins in the late eighties.

Chris Reid
Steven Whitaker
Lewis Stevenson
Paul Hanlon
Gordon Hunter
Mickey Weir
Scott Brown
Kevin Thomson
John Collins
Derek Riordan
Garry O’Connor

But if we add Thomson Allan we need to add Brownlie, Blackley, Stanton, Cropley, O'Rourke, Cormack, Marinello, Stein & the Baker Boy and then you get into famous five territory.

No Kenny Miller or Steven Fletcher?

Kevin Dabrowski could be that 'home grown' keeper if you accept that having played in our development team for a few seasons makes him eligible for this description.

I think Deek and GoC contributed more to hibs but your two undoubtedly have the better careers.

might be wrong but im sure fletcher and o'connor had similar goal ratio at hibs

Andy McNeil over Chris Reid in Goals

Or does he not count as we brought him through Southampton (at age 19) with zero first team appearances

[SirDavidsNapper]

Did David Grof come through the youth system?
