Meet the Stars

[DanishJohn]

Now I don't think for a minute this post will appeal to all Hibs fans. It doesn't delve in to discussing tactics, the state of the current squad, transfer market or even the Hibs board and management.

I would like to think it is just good old fashioned nostalgia but also paying homage to the greatness that we had at the club back in the day.

I'm in my late 60's and lived through late 50's, 60's 70's when Hibs had players that are incomparable with what followed. Also Scottish football for that matter.

I'm a dinosaur re tech so can only describe how to find this item

Meet the Stars

Its from 1960 B/W with no sound

Sit back and be prepared to be blown away...........all seasoned pros and one young King who had already nailed the word greatness for himself alone.

Cathkin Park looking pretty dilapidated, Joe Baker looking very young.

Cathkin Park looks a lot better than it does now!

The ‘keeper pulling fags and lighter out of his shorts was priceless.

Great find! I'm sure that's a very young Tam Mcniven on the sidelines at the start. The goalkeepers shorts!...room for a couple of pies! Hard to tell from the black and white but that looks like Joe is wearing a Man utd kit of the time, should have been a Hibs one!
