I never disliked the guy. Really wanted him to click but it never did. We were desperate for a good attacking threat back then.

Are we not due another Kevin Thomson debate about now?
I’d end up getting banned on here, if I I said how I really feel about Doherty. :greengrin
Got to say Pat Fenlon was guilty of signing some of the worst players I’ve ever seen at Hibs with the odd exception.
I can't believe no one has mentioned Edwin De Graff. He ran like he had a fridge tied to him. Possibly the slowest and worst footballer to play at Hibs in the last 20 years
Will probably get slaughtered for this but Anthony Stokes.
Forever grateful for that unreal display on 21.05.2016, he was unstoppable that day and won us the cup. But a dislikable character and towards the end treated the club with no respect, turnign up late all the time to training, fights on the training ground with management etc. Acted like Billy big baws, never grew up and thought he could do whatever the hell he liked. I can't imagine someone like that would be well liked in the dressing room either.
As I say, legend for his heroics in the final but can't say I think much of him as a person and he left the club under a cloud. Shame because with his experience he could have been such an asset to have around the club if he just had a better attitude.
Some of the names on this thread still give me nightmares! Billy Brown, arrogant hearts ******* should never have been anywhere near Hibs. An absolute bellend of the highest order.

have to agree but he did take us to consecutive cup finals and was honest and said he wasn’t man to take club forward mad times and Butcher signed some belters as well
Killen couldn't wait to leave Hibs, despite the fact Hibs took good care of him considering how often he was on the treatment table. He was offered a good deal by Collins to stay (while he was still injured) at the same time he was talking to Cardiff City who paraded him as a new signing only for Celtic to step in at the last minute and snatch him away from them.
Eduardo Hurtado. Sure he was meant to be a replacement for Latapy.
Thought we signed Hurtado as a mate for De La Cruz and Andrews to keep Latapy in fags 😀
This. Couldn’t stand him. He thought he was Glenn Hoddle. Loved to attempt a long pass but nearly always duck-hooked it 30 yards away from its target. Then after the ‘squiggler ‘ attempted to shoot every time he got a sight of goal no matter how far out he was.
