In Colours Green and White

[Jonnyboy]

I'm delighted to announce that the second book in my trilogy, In Colours Green and White is on it's way to my publisher's distributors and will very soon be available to buy.

The years from 1967 to 1990 are covered and so famous European victories and a certain New Year Derby feature large.

I've included a link to Amazon although they haven't officially released it for sale yet but it gives some detail of content etc.

Of the three books this was my personal favourite to write as it brings back so many wonderful memories of growing up a Hibee.

Will make a cracking Christmas gift

[Mr White]

Excellent. Good work sir, I'll be dropping a few hints to ensure this is in my christmas stocking. There is however still that glaring gap on the outside left of my bookcase next to the smith, johnstone, reilly and turnbull bios...

Heres a wee question you might be able to answer Jonnyboy. Did John Salton ever play a senior game for Hibs ? I cant find it on record but my mate dug oot an old programme and he was marked in as the no 2. I personally dont think he ever played for Hibs.

To the best of my knowledge he never played a first team competitive game Mick

Correct according to this http://www.fitbastats.com/hibs/playe..._az.php?page=S

I'm sure I saw him play...must have been a reserve game.

Looking forward to the book

My mate was adamant he had seen him play for hibs. I kept saying to him i dont think so. Then someone in the Winton arms gave him some old programmes one day and as we were having a quick glance through them, thats when we noticed John Saltons name doon as No2. He must have been close to getting a start in that game. I think he went on to be a bit of a hero at Dunfermline.

Nice one.

Couple of question. Do you know when its available to buy?

Also he blurb on amazon and your opening post say from 1967- 1990 but the cover of the book says 1967-1986 Which is it?

And, is there going to be a paperback version and if so when will it be out?

Cheers and good luck with the book.

Oops It's 1967 - 1986. Sorry about that

Book with distributors I'm told so should become available within the next few working days

I've had no indication that a paperback version is planned

[Carheenlea]

I don`t know about other clubs, but the sheer quantity of Hibernian themed literature is actually pretty remarkable I think, and I`m sure I`m not the only one whose book shelves are starting to sag with the many fine volumes about the club and individual players biography's!
This one in particular should be a real cracker, and one with the years covered that the majority of us on here can really relate to. Will look forward to adding this one to the collection

It's fantastic having so many Hibs related books, I agree. For years there were only a few.

Agree about the period covered

Good stuff. I do hope a certain 1st game in Scotland for our new manager is included. Even it is the start of the '86 season.
On my list to Santa.
