This is a bit random, but I heard a song to this effect yesterday being sung by a group of people near me in the East stand and I wonder if anyone could shed any light on it!
It sounded like they were singing
John Rankin has Tiny Clothes
Tiny Feet and Tiny Toes
Now what does he wear?
What do you suppose?
John Rankin has Tiny Clothes
Mental!

Can't say I heard the song at the game or have heard it sung anywhere else but it would make sense due to his size.
Talking of Sense

....he would look a right dafty if he showed up looking like David Byrne.

I believe that one of the guys recently had a kid and wanting to sing a song to her to help her sleep he made that up as most of the other hibs songs have swearing in there somewhere. Originally Posted by Oohzemmama

Think thats more or less the story of the song, although i may not be 100% accurate with the details.
Don't think there was magic mushrooms involved

Was the tune "We are Hibernian FC, We hate Jam Tarts and we hate Dundee?"

Stevenson has Tiny Clothes...
Zemmama has Tiny Clothes...
Liam Miller has tiny clothes...
Our midfield have tiny clothes...

The Hibs support don't NEED magic mushrooms or any mind altering drugs to come up with bizarre chants.
For example 'If you hate Jam Tarts, shoes off' from the Shamrock game...

Q and A in yesterday's prog; Nishy commented on style in the squad, said Ranks thought he was smart but wore shirts too small for him......

I'll maybe try that 'lullabye' for my wee one.
Might change the last line to 'mugged action man and stole his clothes'

Slightly off topic but I wonder if it's just co-incidence that we seem to be doing quite well without Rankin in the team.
And yes I know he had a couple of assists early on this season but can't say we missed him last Saturday or at home either....

Agreed. He can wear any size of clothes he cares to as far as I am concerned so long as he isn't playing for Hibs. Originally Posted by Cropley10

So would you prefer to see him in the team ahead of anyone who played in the last two games? Originally Posted by Meeko

I wouldn't, however, he's a decent squad player thats probably not on too much money so IMO he's an alright player to have on the fringes of the first team, better than Stevenson IMO. Originally Posted by Cropley10

Yes we have, but its more to do with Zemmama being in the team i think than Rankin not being! Originally Posted by Cropley10
