View Full Version : One match, one moment you could have for a "re-take"

Some fantastic memories on the "relive a match thread". So this time, what if you were allowed to wave the magic wand to get a second chance for one particular moment - a re-take if you like, hoping for a different outcome?

Just the one chance - one match, one moment.

Must be loads, but which would have had the biggest potential impact on Hibs or you personally?

Cummings penalty against Hamilton maybe give it to someone more experienced though don’t suppose it would have mattered better team won we win as a team lose as a team.

About 53182365 last minute chances to get an equaliser/winner in the derby, most notable being Collins' miss in the last one before we went down. That would have brought it back to 2-2 from 0-2 and I suspect we would have gone on to win.

Failing that, Cummings' shot going in instead of hitting the bar in the playoff semi final at Falkirk.

The Suso dive outside the box at 2-1 in the SC Final. Although I’m sure Craig Thomson could watch it 100 times and still somehow award a penalty and a red card.

Not sure if we’d have gone on to equalise or not, but certainly wouldn’t have been the humping it was.

Considering where we are as a club atm you maybe wouldn't want to go too far back

Recent ones could be MacLaren's 2 misses against Aberdeen I suppose

Score and we may well have won, he also probably wouldn't have been dropped for the derby

Imo our lineup was all wrong in that game and playing with 2 up top would have drastically increased our odds

I think if we beat Aberdeen we'd have been favourites for 2nd

Scottish cup final 1979 - Brian McGinlay gives the penalty for McCloy's assault on Colin Campbell. Ally MacLeod (the real one) steps up and slots it home.

Scottish Cup semi vs Celtc at Ibrox in 1995. Game at 0-0 heading into the last couple of mins and Jim Leighton has just saved Andy ****er's penalty. Hibs, who have been pretty ***** all game, come alive. Darren Jackson slides a shot just wide and then, as we go into injury time, Pat McGinlay has a rasping shot from about 25 yards that instead of clipping the outside of the post, goes just inside. First division Airdrie await in the final and we murder them, stopping the clock at a mere 93 years!

This one def on my list although had he scored, what would the longer term impact have been, other than a mentally joyous moment/night?

Also unsure about any "re-takes" that would have prevented (or shortened?) our recent spell in the Championship. Are we not a stronger team now for that spell? Being able to develop the team and playing the Hibs way again was made possible by that spell and who knows where we might be had we remained a struggling Prem team.

That 2-2 against Celtic at Easter Road last season.

After being 2-0 down, bringing it back to 2-2. Imagine what it would have been like had Shaw’s shot to make it 3 in the last minute not been cleared off the line? Imagine the scenes after being 2-nil down, to go on and end the ‘Invincibles’ streak in such a manner?

Lately, either McGregor would have put his foot through it at Tynecastle or Whittaker's header would have gone in against Rangers. Probably the latter, 4-0 inside 25 and I think we'd have done it, as opposed to being 3-1 and all over.

Bit further back, Rocky's header in the cup against Aberdeen would have gone in.

And way back, probably two involving Scott Brown in 2006/07. If he hadnt missed when clean through in the League Cup game we'd have mbttered then instead of only winning 1-0, and his chip cleared off the line against Dunfermline in the semi final replay. A double that year would have been one of the only ways to better how we ended up winning the thing.

I’m a big believer in the butterfly effect.

So if we had beaten falkirk, I don’t think we would’ve won the Scottish cup, or ended up with Neil Lennon in charge and be where we are now. We may well have been promoted the following season, but it would still have been in front of crowds of 9k.

Same goes for beating Hamilton in the relegation play off. Yes we might have stayed up, but I don’t think 4 years later we’d be in the place we are now.

I’d maybe just go for Maclaren retaking his penalty against Aberdeen recently.
Or going back to just before Aberdeen’s 3rd goal in last seasons cup semi.

Completely forgot about Goram running up though. I think it was Alan Sneddon who won the penalty after a mazy - run - charge that started back in defence. It was a poor kick by Houchen to the goalie's right at waist height which was easily palmed away round the post. Score that and I am still convinced we would have won the tie and gone through and got through at least one or two more rounds of the UEFA Cup that season.

Another missed penalty. John Collins in his last game before moving to Celtc for £1M. Missed a very late penalty in the last game of the season at home to Dundee in May 1990. Finished 0 - 0. A win would have given secured a European place for the second season running.

Not sure it would have prevented what was to unfold a few weeks later though.

First season in championship at the bus shelter, only the 2nd game. Started the game well and deservingly rewarded a penalty in the first half. Up steps Liam Craig, a stupid run up and the 18 year old reserve keeper makes an amazingly easy save. Score that and we’d have won that game and I’m not saying the outcome of that season might have changed but I don’t think there’d have been the gap that there was.

There's actually quite a few recent ones for me..

First instinct is the 5-1 game. But we had a pretty poor team that year and in all honesty I don't know how many re-runs we'd need to win it, we got pretty lucky with our route to the final.

Then there's the Hamilton 2nd leg, but it all ended up ok. Might not have gone the same way if we'd stayed up.

From a purely selfish standpoint I'd probably say the Brondby penalty shoot out. I live in Berlin so drawing Hertha in the next round would've been unreal.

But overall I'd have to agree with the AEK Athens shout. Imagine if we'd finished that off.

Would they have continued as they were and got a couple more, or would we have settled and potentially gotten an equaliser? Sadly, we'll never know thanks to that prick.

I know it may have papered over the cracks or just delayed the inevitable but if Jimmy Boco hadn’t taken a nose bleed and bottled it to put us 4-1 up against the hun early in the second half, that season may have ended with a different outcome. That might not necessarily have been the best outcome though as we may never have seen wee Russel or the majestic Sauzee.

If my memory serves me well, it wasn't so much a bad tackle as an unfortunate one.
East Fife were more noted for kicking Edwards off the park. John Love being the main culprit in one particular game. As usual, the ref offered Mickey no protection but was quick to book the wee man for throwing the ball ( to Sloop strangely enough) in an aggressive fashion. That booking resulted in a hefty ban which like Onion's leg break, cost us dearly.
If I was a cynical man :rolleyes: I would probably have thought there was some kind of agenda at the time. :whistle:
