Drop Whitty, put John Brownlie at right back and bring in David Murphy at left back and that would be pretty close to mine. I'm not sure that Blackley and Sauzee would work as a centre back partnership but who cares!

We've actually had quite a lot of good players when you think about it. I started watching Hibs regularly around 1992 and in that time I'd say we've had 4 cracking teams - Miller's team where he lost the plot and started playing great stuff around 93-94, McLeish's team 2nd year after we got back up, the "golden generation" and then the cup winning team (and the year or two after). There was always the odd star outwith these teams too.

It has been downhill ever since

I wonder if I would have felt the same about that team if I had been a bit older but as young boy just becoming obsessed with football I have never seen anything like it before or afterwards.

I could argue I have seen better goalies than Herriot and better centre half's than Black, but sometimes a team is better than the sum of its parts and who is to say replacing them wouldn't have disrupted that

For me any of the others would hold their place against what I have seen subsequently in their positions

Next closest would be Murphy v Schaedler, but Erich was a big hero of mine as he was hard as nails

McGinn would be the most unlucky to miss out, he is as close to an idol as I have had in a Hibs player since Paddy Stanton

I loved everything about McGinn.

[ancient hibee]

It is great to see a team very few could pick :aok:

Yes we've had some wonderful players. I put Govan in because when I was a kid this giant use to thunder up and down the right hand side and was certainly one of the first overlapping full backs- Alf Ramsay was another one whereas George Young never went over the half way (although I did see him clear a ball at Easter Road with such power that Younger decided to tip it over the bar.

Difficult to pick a team as you’d probably need to pick lesser players to maintain a balance to the team, but as it’s hypothetical haven’t worried about how narrow the midfield is.

There are some great teams being posted. But who would you put in as the best number 12 (the first substitute to be on to help things along). Mine would Ivan Sproule. He always seemed to be more effective coming off the bench.

What are you bringing him on for - he's *****ing useless.

Apparently O'Connors reaction to being subbed before Sproule scored his hat trick at Ibrox.

I know it's probably not true, but it is a great story that I've heard a few times.

:agree:


It was like watching a game of chess - they kept the ball on the carpet - every man knew his job -Herriot would always roll the ball out - if a move broke down they would simply start again - they had a system and stuck to it

At times going down that slope we were unbeatable-watching them was a pleasure- they truly made it the beautiful game- we thought it would always be like this

Agree about McGinn

Yes Turnbull's Tornadoes from the start of the season through to the infamous East Fife game, what a joy to watch they were, total football, days never to be seen again in my life anyways.
We had many great players in the team from 1966/1970 as well, but the Tornadoes really were something else.

I struggle for RIght back, it’s not a position we’ve been blessed with since Brownlie, who if I’m honest I can’t remember watching in the flesh. So David Gray gets it for 2016. Whittaker had weaknesses and was nowhere near Murphy class on the opposite side IMO.

Started watching in 1968..so looking forward from then only.

Given its a team game, I can't see past Turnbull's Tornadoes.

There have been better Individual players in many of the positions but knitting a team of 11+ players from those might not work.

I still hanker after their brand of football....but count my blessings having lived through it.

I really liked him too. Very under-appreciated player who put a good shift in for us.

More one for an unsung hero thread as we have had better centre halves in my opinion, but he was a very good player.

Excellent in the millennium derby iirc, along with Tom Smith, although others will get more credit.
