Hibs the first beamback

HiBS THE FIRST BEAMBACK

https://youtu.be/_bQgD6Xa4lg



Hibernian Football Club were once again innovators when due to popular demand and the shortage of briefs from Ochilview they decided to beamback live coverage of a Scottish Cup tie with Stenhousemuir to Murrayfield Ice Rink

See if you can spot yourselves

Many thanks once again to johnsparky2

That was great. Thanks.

I got a ticket for the Stenny end due to a mate knowing Peter Cormack (jnr). Went to the loo and exited via the Hibs end to meet up with my family. Loads of other Hibs fans who'd got away end tickets doing this until they cottoned on [emoji16]

I managed to get a ticket but my brother went to the beam back. They had knocked out a very good Aberdeen side so media frenzy over another upset

A friend of mine who is QoS supporter was at Ochilview for a lower league game when the police came over from
the main stand to talk to him about his language
You can’t hear me from over there he said
Seemingly one of the residents whose garden backs on to the away end had phoned the police to complain about this one fan who would not stop swearing and shouting
Real old fashioned ground

I loved that strip. I was at the actual game and there was a big close up of my brother and I walking out at the end of the game

I managed to get five tickets for the whole family at Stenhousemuir match in 1995. They had beaten Aberdeen in the previous round.

We ended up sharing a crash barrier with two Proclaimers.

We went to the game and were in the Stenny social club beforehand. Great day out.

Great day out, in their social club with Dickie Baird beforehand - pretty sure it was only a pound or so for a nip. Don't remember much of the game!

That was a great day out (at the game), press desperate for Hibs to get pumped IIRC.

[Hermit Crab]

The boy thats uploaded that has an incredible amount of hibs content on his YT channel. I've been subscribed to his channel for ages now, he uploads some great stuff.

That’s the name, that’s been bugging me since I watched the video.

His rendition of 12 days of Christmas is hilarious.

He used to drink in the Cairn Hotel and was a big mate of my brother at one time.

Still remember his 78 World Cup song from my youth - Hoat Pies For Us Argentina 😀

That definitely wasn't a good Aberdeen side. That game was I think the end for Willie Miller who was replaced by Roy Aitken who managed to get them off the bottom of the league, at Dundee United's expense. Aberdeen then beat Dunfermline in the playoffs to stay up.

But you were right that they had recently been a good side (challenging for the league even the previous season) and the sudden decline of both Aberdeen and Dundee United (Scottish Cup holders) was an absolute delight. The first time Hibs had finished above both since 1976 IIRC. The only sad thing was that Hearts (who faced relegation yet again until late in the season) survived at the expense of both.

Roy Aitken was the manager that day at Ochilview
In fact he said it was the worst result in Aberdeen’s history.

Great stuff Billy, was there at the ice rink with my brother whilst our Dad had a ticket for the actual game.
