First Hibs match |
v Dundee, 26th November 1988 I think,
a 1-1 draw with Gareth Evans opening the scoring for us and them
equalising. I was hooked the minute I walked the stairs to the old cowshed
and saw the green in front of my eyes!!! |
How long a member of London Hibs |
Since about October 2000 |
How did you find out about London Hibs |
Through the old ERIN web, and guys
like Mike Inglis and Kevin Robertson - |
Favourite all time Hibs Player |
Who I've seen live - John Collins
Who I've on video - Pat Stanton |
Most memorable Game |
Tempted to say 6-2, but I remember a
game against Dundee United where we were losing 0-2 with about 8 minutes
to go and then ended up winning 3-2! The Skol Cup Final is high up there
too. |
How often do you get to games |
Try and get down as often as funds
and uni work allow me to, usually about half the home games per season,
and of course the games at Pittodrie! |
When did you leave Scotland? (If
applicable) |
Not yet, although leaving the option
open for maybe practising English Law in the future! |
Why do you live in the South? |
I moved to Aberdeen to do a Law
degree. |
Favourite English team |
Plymouth Argyle - They play in the
green! |
Lowest moment following Hibs? |
Takeover bid, although also the 1-2
defeat by Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup last season, when I got out of bed
with the flu to go and see it - the journey back along the M8 was the
longest of my life!! |
Best Hibs goal? |
Possibly Latapy against Hearts. |
What is the best thing about being a
Hibby? |
Being outnumbered up here by everyone
I know from Edinburgh supporting Hearts, then getting a result like 6-2!! |
Proudest moment following Hibs? |
Skol Cup final / 6-2 |
How did you become a Hibby? |
My uncle started taking me to games
when I was 8, and I've continued ever since!! |
