Championship winning DVD

[hibby6270]

Wasn't aware of this. Cant recall reading anything about this.

In the Paul Hanlon thread, the very last line of the interview states:

"The DVD ‘Hibernian Reborn’, which charts the club’s Championship-winning season, will also be on sale shortly."

Is this correct or just the Sun up to their old tricks?

Might not be as big a seller as a well known DVD from a year ago but I'll buy it!!

[CallumLaidlaw]

It is indeed due to be released.
I believe it's about our 3 year journey.

Can't really see that being a big seller to be honest. I don't think I would bother with that.

It was played at the end of the new strip launch on Wed and whilst I enjoyed it (and it brought back many memories-good and bad!) it's basically a Championship version of Time for Heroes, IMHO.

Won’t watch anything that glorifies 3 years in a dross league

I seen most of it on Wednesday night at the strip launch. Well worth buying in my opinion. I dont want to spoil things but the bit about Lennon's first meeting with the players is very interesting.

Relegation, semi finals, league cup final defeat, play off heartaches, scottish cup final win, promotion to the top flight, so nearly another SC final ?

Aye, it's been 3 years of dross right enough

You are with the club through the good times and the bad times, that would be the point of the DVD. It's been a very emotional journey - few derby wins in there too that why it's sticking in yer craw ?

the section on the derby win was really good as well - Lennon played it brilliantly.

We've spent that last 30 years in a dross league mate, anything celebrating any Hibs achievement is worth watching.

Charles Bronson was still in Death Wish 2...

[woodythehibee]

The last 3 years have provided some great moments. It's been a fun journey (albeit with some major lows thrown in) I'll be buying the DVD.

What? Did you enjoy us getting relegated? There is dross, that is the top league in Scotland, then there is utter embarrassment mate!

that relegation was the best thing that ever happened to our club. Through the good times and the bad a support ma team. Half our fans think we play our home games at hampden.

Winning the Scottish Cup after 114 years is the best thing to happen to Hibs, getting promoted after three years in that league is welcome but not worth making a DVD about.

I think it's a really revealing insight into the last season. I've seen some of it and thought it was really interesting and well made. The interviews, particularly Lennon, are extremely frank. Well worth it.

[Godsahibby]

From what I remember seeing of the DVD on Wednesday it was more to do with how the club has changed over the last few years rather than highlights of 3 years worth of games. The journey to get us where we are.

If you read the comments on this thread that's not what this DVD is about.

[Spike Mandela]

I will buy ANY Hibs related dvd so I guess I'm an example of the target audience.

[Pretty Boy]

Firstly I saw the DVD the other night and it's excellent.

Secondly the last 3 years may not have been in the league we wanted but it's been the 3 most interesting of my time following Hibs. Semi finals, finals, cup wins, highs and lows and eventually getting over the line. It's also seen the size of Hibs fan base emerge and most importantly a solid platform and structure put in place for the club to flourish for years to come.

Has it been frustrating at times? Yes. Would it have been preferable to be promoted quicker? Yes. However the situation was what it was and we have reacted to it. It's been a bit of a journey that the fans, players, manager and club have walked together and a connection that money can't buy has been built. I'll happily buy a DVD that captures some of that.

Those who are 'embarrassed' can keep their money in their pocket. Everyones happy.

You'll be fine then as the DVD is not about glorifying 3 years in the championship.

[alan1875]

Does anyone know if "Time For Heroes" is on sale in the shop at the moment? Has anyone who was down to buy the new kit notice it on sale? Trying to get a hold of a copy of the DVD for my old man.

[tartanhibee]

I think the name gives its away Hibernian reborn it has hasn't just been about 3 seasons in the championship,when we were relegated the club was at its lowest ebb I can ever remember and us as fans were disillusioned by the whole thing.

This DVD is about an important time in our history in how we all came together and turned it round the club the fans the community. The last 3 years has been the biggest rollercoaster in my life I see this as closure on a chapter and what a chapter it's been.

I'm glad the club has put together a wee keepsake for me. The marketing name tells it all as we about to head back to premiership our club has indeed been reborn and we all can't wait for the new season. I'll be getting my copy to keep.

What? We were in the Championship? Don't talk Colin Nish

Do you think we would have gone on to win the Scottish Cup if we had stayed up with Butcher and co?

Great post and even though my first reaction was 'why celebrate neddiocity' and 'embarrassing after Time For Heroes', after reading your comments I found on reflection that I agree with every word. It has been fascinating three years which has heralded the dramatic rebirth of the club, and I'm delighted to commenorate it. Unlike Time For Heroes it won't sell shedloads to glory hunters, but faithful Hibs obsessives will have a keepsake of a period that should have been the darkest in our club's history, but ended up as something very beautiful and transfiguring.

Championship DVD... Mmm let me think about it! That'll be a huge no thanks.
