    Scottish Cup Banana Skins

    Some cup Memories before Saturday

    Raith game on Saturday has a whole lot of danger signs for me , due to our current situation

    That said, there have been many along the years

    What’s your memories of underdog victories against us in the Cup..Or near misses...

    One that stands out for me , was a Scottish cup defeat at old Kilbowie against Clydebank- who I’m sure where one or two divisions below us at the time - wasn’t a great Hibs side to be fair - think we went out to a meek 1-0 defeat.

    Always liked going to that ground for some reason though !

    Cup days used to have a real excitement and cache over the years - slightly changed now- with some obvious amazing exceptions... Any other mementoes against the smaller clubs ?

    0-0 at home to Ayr and losing 1-0 in the replay through there to the most poorly defended goal in the history of the game

    2-1 Stirling Albion in a replay was a shocker, as was the Ross County replay defeat.

    Not really a huge shock as such but a 2-0 defeat at home to Kilmarnock on a freezing cold day sticks in my mind. Jim Leighton had an absolute nightmare.

    Was that when Paul Wright lobbed him from miles out after a bad kick out or something?

    The falkirk semi final which we lost 1 0 was a shocker. We actually played well just couldn't score.

    Yes it was they scored a stoppage time winner from being 0-1 down after Stokes had given us the lead. They scored 2 goals in the last 20 minutes, there was trouble after the game as a county fan invaded the pitch holding a Hearts top which led to fighting behind the main stand. Brutal journey home that.

    Getting beat 3-2 by the same opposition at home under Butcher. I remember leaving that game thinking we had a problem for the first time.

    To make it worse Celtic got knocked out that day.

    Half expected the Inverness replay to go the same way, especially after the final loss. One of the best journey's home from a game that was

    Said to my mate after that game that if We didn't buck up our ideas we would be in the play offs. Got told I was talking ***** and we would finish top 6.


    As soon as that watmore started beating a couple of men they started kicking ***** out him and we never really seen him again apart from the odd performance

    was the opposite experience that wasn't it...completely expected us to go out after the cup final just before...Was as good an away cup performance as I had seen in years - so important for the club that one..Very proud Hibee driving home that night.

    yes. League Cup Quarter Final that - wasn't there - but do remember it.....put out AET.. we won 1-0 at ER in a two legged game

    Had a look at the Hibs team that day:

    McArthur, Brownlie, Schaedler, Stanton, Barry, Blackley, Edwards, Higgins, Harper, Munro & Duncan - Decent 11!

    Nightmare Alan Rough played on with a broken leg and kept the score down

    They had a young Gordon Marshall in goals a young Juke Box and a young Stevie Kirk scored the winner

    Our Supporters Bus got lost trying to find his way this guy on the bus said he was a bus driver and knew a quick way cue abandoning the bus and sprinting to the ground to make kick off.

    Happy days!

    That was horrible. Was still at Heriot Watt and went up on the supporters bus for the first time. When we finally arrived back in Edinburgh I just missed the first night bus, couldn't get on the second as I had no money (didn't realise it was £3) and finally got on the third after trading another guy my £10 note for slightly less money in change. Think I got back around 3am.

    1976/77, Arbroath away where we scraped a 1-1 draw thanks to a John Blackley goal. Replay at Easter Road in a game played in torrential rain we managed to lose 2-1 after leading 1-0 through an Ally Macleod goal.

    Went up in the Tranent Hibs supporters bus, after the match went into a small grocers shop in Montrose to get something to eat for the long trek home. The shop was invaded by Hibs supporters who began stealing everything in sight. The young girl behind the counter tried to stop them and ended up getting a sore punch in the face. To top it all somebody threw a carton of milk which exploded all over me. By the time I got home I was stinking of sour milk.
