The team that beat Rangers 1-0 was full of players that could: play a bit,stand up and be counted and look after themselves on the park. A terrific combination and still what is required to have a successful team today.Nothing changes.

Merouane Zemmama shot HIBS into an early lead after some delightful footwork and Chris Killen added a second on 16 minutes from a corner
Hearts hit back with an Andrius Velicka header but lost Saulius Mikoliunas to a second bookable offence early in the second half. Velicka caught the HIBS defence and Zibi Malkowski cold with a near post strike to give 10 man Hearts some hope
Craig Gordon pulled off a cracking save from a Rob Jones header at the death

0-2 down at half-time thanks to a Simon Ford header and a James Fowler strike HIBS came out of the traps flying in the second half to complete an amazing fight back
Garry O’Connor accepted a pass from Derek Riordan on 53 minutes and bulleted a long low drive into the back of the net Riordan was the provider again and this time it was Guillaume Beuzelin who left the net bulging with a superb diving header
By now HIBS were well on top and it was no surprise when they took the lead Ivan Sproule won a free kick on the edge of the area and Kevin Thomson curled a superb free kick onto the head of Beuzelin for the third
HIBS were on a roll and they added to their tally when Beuzelin found the head of Steven Fletcher with a cross who nodded the ball into the path of Derek Riordan to complete the scoring

Hibs got their first home victory over top of the table Hearts in 10 years and Alex Millers first ever victory over Hearts as HIBS Manager at a sold out Easter Road
Hibs took the lead after 5 minutes when Henry Smith could not hold a shot from Paul Kane and Eddie May tapped it home after one of his trademark late runs into the box
Hearts equalised 10 minutes later when John Colquhoun skipped past Alan Sneddon out wide and sent in a cross for you know who?
Paul Kane gave HIBS the lead just before half-time when he headed home an Eddie May corner
There was no further scoring but there was a coming together of both sets of fans after the final whistle that was handbags at nine paces

A larger crowd than normal attended this match as HIBS legend Joe Baker had sadly tragically passed away on 6th October 2003
Livingston would beat us four times in this season one of them being the Scottish League Cup Final
18/10/1989 UEFA Cup Round 2 Leg 1
Hibernian 0 v 0 Liege
The kick off was delayed for fully 15 minutes to allow the near full capacity crowd into the Stadium for Hibs’ 69th game in Europe
When the game did eventually kick off the HIBS fans also discovered that Liege had brought l’autobus with them playing a sweeper and two markers and everyone and his cat in midfield
Hibs played some neat football but were perhaps guilty of taking the extra touch at times and were also guilty of not using the wings to bypass the congested midfield The Belgians resorted to fouling - largely going unpunished and time wasting tactics early in the match
Hibs’ best player in the first half was Michael Weir who tried to lead by example taking the fight to Liege and was unlucky when he got too much elevation on an Evans cutback
Hibs had a goalden chance to take the lead 11 minutes before the interval when they were awarded a penalty when Keith Houchen latched onto a long through ball from Paul Kane in the box his attempt on goal went past the post but his feet were clearly taken from under him by Wegria in mid shot - an obvious penalty
There was a delay of two minutes whilst Alan Sneddon received treatment for an injury and I noticed that Captain Andy Goram ran the length of the pitch to make sure Houchen took the kick
When eventually he did take the kick the shot wasn’t firmly enough placed and Munaron was able to make an easy diving save
HIBS continued to make all the running in the second half with John Collins blasting over from a good position The Belgians were happy to soak up all the pressure with the ever dangerous De Sart making good contact with a 25 yarder and Danny Boffin sweeping a deflected shot wide of the target in a seperate move
HIBS introduced talisman Stevie Archibald on 65 minutes and should have taken the lead 5 minutes later when Neil Cooper got on the end of a Gareth Evans corner only to see his excellent header beat Munaron all ends up but could only watch as Danny Boffin headed his effort off the line

HIBS can feel aggrieved as the Hungarian Referee awarded the French side a soft penalty - an award that would eventually win the tie -many observers thought that the HIBS defender had cleanly and fairly won the ball
Piasecki 60 pen and Gemmrich 20 were the goalscorers

Fresh from their 2-1 win at Ibrox in front of 60000 HIBS now faced Falkirk at Easter Road but were without the services of Lawrie Reilly and Gordon Smith who were away on Scotland duty
Falkirk could smell blood and very quickly raced into an early two goal lead with Duncan converting two penalties. Goals by Ormond and Turnbull drew HIBS level going into the interval.
The tide had now turned and in the second half HIBS exerted their authority with further goals from Souness and Turnbull
