    I believe he used to work for Tay FM.

    He's more in the vein of Scott Wilson of PBS fame with his roaring about seeing the Hibee Bounce, and trying to gee the crowd up which the last SA was a bit poor at.

    Enjoyed his line against Aberdeen though. Something along the lines of
    "Wearing number 1 for Hibs is number 31 Mark Brrrroooown!"
    They've only gone and done it! They've only gone and won the Scottish Cup! What kept you, Hibs?!

    Edwin MOTM

    Completely agree with EDG getting Man of the match. Slipped out of things a little in the second half, but still got the ball across the goal for the equalizer. But in the first half he was the only hibs player to get close to pass marks; chasing everything down, some good touches.....but most of all - signs of some EFFORT!

    Definitely the best man in a green jersey today.

    "And Hibs are right back in this game at the end of the first half!"

    Aye, we looked like we were in it then right enough.

    Didn't want to start a thread on it but he is awful.

    I can't hear what he says when he talks - he mumbles and is very boring.

    They either need to fix the speakers in the stands or get someone in with a bit of class who can make half time actually interesting.

    Said the wrong kick off time at the end of the Aberdeen game

    Alright there Mr announcer?

    I personally thought Galbraith was the only one playing in the first half.

    I like him.

    He made me laugh on Sunday when he announced Ifil coming on as "Eeeefffeeell" complete with attempt at French accent too.

    The stewards must have been wanting to kill when he kept saying "lets see the Hibees bounce", you can just imagine them thinking "no, sit, you all have to sit, you can't stand, and definitely not bounce!" Hee hee.

    This may have nothing to do with the announcer or it may have something to do with him i don't know. But what was up with cutting GGTTH short and sticking some other crap on before the game.

    He doesn't decide who gets the man of the match though - he just announces it

    Totally agree with that.

    And on the announcer, i wish our players had the same amount of enthusiasm he has.

    Fancy being the Stadium Announcer at the Ayr United game announcing that announcing has ceased?

    If he makes people laugh due to his ineptitude (he took an eternity tonight to tell us who Liam Miller was replacing) it's no bad thing, he's only the announcer after all...
    he doesn't pick MOTM and he doesn't pick the tunes and when they'll be played.. ..does he?

    I thought he was fine, and tried to inject some enthusiasm into the crowd. Christ we have a lot more to moan about, than what the announcer does.

    Yip that. At least he does try to instil some enthusiasm into the crowd. I don't mind him at all.

    I have to agree he looked pretty good in the 1st half and added a bit of 'bite' to the midfield
