    Bobby Smith

    Sad to report that Alan Gordon now has a new colleague to supply the crosses. Brave Bobby Smith has passed away after a fight as courageous as we all would have expected. Thanks for a million memories Bobby, thanks for your commitment and humour, your friendliness and unassuming humility.
    God Bless and condolences to all family and friends. Rest in Peace.

    There must be one heck of a football team beyond the pearly gates now.

    Rest in peace, Bobby.

    Terrible news.

    It was only last Thursday (my time) that I posted a letter to him, thanking him for his services to Hibs and letting himknow that his commitment will always be remembered.and apprecaited.

    I guess I'll never know now whether it reached him in time.

    My thoughts are with his family.

    RIP Bobby.

    RIP Bobby

    I had the good fortune to play with Bobby when Jackie Mac and Ralph C were the owners of Derby's and they used to have bounce games against his Musselburgh boozers, and playing with us was Bobby Smith [amongst other's] and it didnt matter what standard you were Bobby and the boys always tried to get you involved in the game, a gent on and off the pitch, will be sadly missed.

    A very sad day indeed for all Hibs fans and particularly those who had the pleasure of meeting Bobby personally during his lifetime!

    RIP Bobby, a great guy!

    Sincere condolances to his family and to all his close friends!

    Sad news indeed, I interviewed Bobby a couple of week’s ago for a book I am writing on the careers of former Hibs players, he was really helpful and a good laugh.

    Not only was he a great player for Hibs, he was also a stalwart for Leicester City and Dunfermline Athletic where he captained both their league winning teams.

    R.I.P Bobby. A sad day.

    My mother went to school with him in Dalkeith.
    When I was growing up she used to talk about him all the time.

    I was fairly young when he had his second spell at Hibs, so I've only vague memories of him in green and white, however my fondest memories are from when he had his boozer in Dalkeith. Many an underage drinking afternoon was spent in the wee pool room at the back. Really sound guy.

    RIP
