Less famous sons/brothers/fathers to play for Hibs/in Scotland

[lyonhibs]

Watching Seedorf's lad do well for Motherwell got me thinking - which players have we, or any Scottish team, had on the books who had far more famous sons, brothers or dads who were top class players themselves?

For example, I'm sure one of the Pogba brothers turned out for St Mirren/Dundee or similar? We'd have Jordi Cruyff to add if only he hadn't got on that number 26 to eternity a few years back.

Any others?

That’s not Clarence Seedorf’s laddie. Suppose you could be right that it’s “Seedorf’s laddie”. But it it’s not Clarence Seedorf’s laddie.

Motherwell do have Andy Cole’s laddie though.

St Mirren have Yuri Djorkaeff’s laddie.

The Pogba brother was at Partick. As was Martin Keown’s laddie.

[BILLYHIBS]

Alan Stubbs laddie Sam plays for Hamilton

[KWJ]

Whatever happened to mixus laddies? Kind they were doing well at Cowdenbeath.

Don't suppose sauzee or Latapy spawned some wee Hibs fans while in the country 😁

[Monts]

Two of John McGinns brothers play for St Mirren...

He’s related to Seedorf but definitely not his son. Sure I read him say he’s met him once and that’s it.

Hmmm **** you're right he is "distantly related". Youri Djorkaeff's kid at St Mirren was maybe one I was thinking of as having a more famous dad.

[Oscar T Grouch]

Bryan Gunn's laddie Angus plays in the EPL now, Southampton I think.

[Ringothedog]

we had Kenny Dalglishs son

We had his dad for one game

Managers (I know it's slightly o/t) - Bob Shankly and as assistant, Martin Ferguson.

[southsider]

We had Alex Miller's sons. That turned out well eh ?

[houstonhibbee]

[number9dream]

Alan Stubbs laddie Sam plays for Hamilton

Looks good too. One to keep an eye on. Out of contract at Boro in the summer.

[Tom Hart RIP]

Don’t think Lewis Goram played any competitive games for Hibs but he almost played a part in us winning the league.
In 1950 Hibs and Rangers were level on points at end of season but rangers had one more game to play against Third Lanark. They needed a draw to win title but a defeat would see Hibs win title. Goram was on loan to Third Lanark and the score was 2-2 but Thirds missed a late penalty so the title went to Ibrox.

Andrew MacGeachan ( scorer of the winning goal in the Scottish Cup Final 1902 at Celtic Park “Leave it Jimmy “ ) and his brother James MacGeachan

Murdo Macleod’s father played for Hibs.

[Purple & Green]

Ian Blacks dad played for Hibs. Jock brown played for Hibs - his sons, Peter and Gordon were rugby internationals - which reminds me of Andrew Leslie who played for Hibs. His grandsons, Martin and John were Scottish rugby internationals. His son Andy was an all black captain. Bobby Flavell was the son of Bobby Flavell senior. Gordon Marshall senior and junior - while Gordon junior never played for Hibs, he was an unused substitute in the early noughties.

Murdo Macleod’s father played for Hibs.
What was his name?

[brog]

I guess posters mentioning The Baker Boys, Scott Brothers etc haven't read the thread title.😊 Think the OP was looking for some unusual names & the one about the Leslies, rugby internationalists, certainly fits the bill.

OK!

How about Andy Murray’s grandad? 😁

Des Bremner had a younger brother, Kevin I think, who had a decent career in the Highland League then in England. Played for Dundee latterly.

Alan Hansen's brother John was a good player too and played for Partick Thistle but had to retire early through injury.

Think Dylan McGeouch has a brother who played a bit too but might be wrong about that.

Ryan Giggs' brother played for Livingston for a bit. Think there was a drugs issue with him though.
