I would also suggest that we might consider ourselves to be unfortunate to be drawn against Celtic in the quarter final but at least it is not at Hampden or Darkheid.
We just have to get on with it hopefully we do not do a The Rangers and knock them out to do someone else a favour
Oh! 2-1 down with ten minutes to go there was nothing easy about it!Last edited by BILLYHIBS; 13-02-2019 at 05:59 PM.

From the moment they beat Celtic I thought that our chances in the final were no worse than 50/50 provided we got a fair crack of the whip from the referee.And so it turned out

As soon as Halliday goal went in, The pessimist in me came to light, I turned to my dad and said “that’s a cup final winning goal”
I’m happy Sir David Gray proved me wrong

I’ll give you Raith. But remember they finished one place below us in the League and we had to defeat them in the first ofthe play offs that season, so they were no mugs.
Hertz. A Premiership side who were having one of their best top flight seasons for many a year off the back of being promoted the season before. Much as it goes against the grain to say it, they were a “top” side at the time. Just couldn’t handle our never say die attitude.
ICT. A Premiership side who as ever were punching above their weight and on paper could have beaten us but didn’t!!
Dundee Utd. A Premiership side who were admittedly on a downward spiral towards relegation and we all know what lack of confidence and persistent defeats does to a team (I refer to second half of 2013/2014 season!!) We didn’t beat them. I prefer to say we defeated them to be more accurate and but for a big Irish polar bear making a sensational debut, probably wouldn’t be talking about 21/5/16 today.
The Rangers. Yes, they won the Championship relatively easily but because of that we’re imo way over confident the Cup (and subsequent “unique double”) was theirs. Another big cuddly Irishman thought different and ripped Sevco a sore one that day with the MOTM of all MOTM displays that day.
So Berne, you can take these facts back to your work discussion and show them, regardless of their football persuasions, that the Hibees won the cup fair and square having been dealt the cards they were given.

But I prefer the emotional approach. Hibs won the Scottish Cup - for the first time in 114 years - ending the biggest hoodo in world sport- with a last minute goal- against the most bigoted corrupt dirtbags imaginable.
And it was ****ing brilliant!!!
Goodnight

And please don’t ever forget our greatest day guys and gals....
The media will always try to play it down.....
Only team ever to appoint a new manager
Without any real media attention today.....
Ceptic Europa league 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Even the EEN don’t give us credit for appointing a very well respected football coach....
None of us know how it’ll pan out....
But I’m 100% behind the new coaching team🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

(R3) beat the "Lucky Omen" team, Raith Rovers (who had a 6 year record of going out to the eventual winners)
(R4) beat Derby Rivals after being 0-2 at 80mins (Hearts fans chanting "Stubbsy", the lot)
(R5) beat the holders
(Semi) The Polar Bear's out-of-shape but heroic debut & Cummings' 2 penalties - one horrible Panenka and one that got us into the Final
(Final) - 1-0 early, 1-1 HT, 1-2 and dreading it, 2-2, and 90+2...
The greatest cup run ever known

I’ve written the emotional version elsewhere on the forum.
Have never gret, bubbled and cried as much at a football match.
A day never to be forgotten. “A moment in time” as someone said.

Round 5 - beat the holders in a replay at a ground where we had a poor record and only days after losing the League Cup final to a last minute goal.
There is a fantastic narrative for the entire cup run.Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.
