In the words of Lou Reed, just a perfect day. From the lack of expectation, to the unexpected start (never seen Hibs lead a SCF), to the police leaving for a party at Ibrox, to our unexpected equaliser, to the “Jees, we’ve got a real chance”, to SDG’s defiance in the face of 114 years of mocking history. Time For Heros, Sevco statements. Goading. SOL. Sunday Parade. Rainbow over ER. We did it Dad. Everything, every little detail was .. a perfect.

There will never, ever be an occasion like it again. Don’t care. We were there.

Perfect.

I read the match thread in the vault. At 2-1 down, the last post on page 6 just says 'Corner hibs'.

The next pages are just brilliant.

No doubt about it Turnbulls tornadoes were a fabulous team to watch and support, but they never came close to giving me the feelings I got on that day in May or indeed for the next few months.

True but that wasn't quite what I was getting at, more that certain posters saw these awesome teams, players etc which I never did and they post about this game, that player etc...

Imagine when we have to explain to someone who cannot comprehend how we felt about THAT day.

It's going to be so strange but... It's going to be awesome.

The following days and the summer was just awesome as well.

I look back at photos on my phone from 21st May onwards - the celebrations, the gifs, family pics with the Scottish cup, merchandise, you tube videos, summer holidays (drunk reflecting on the greatest moment and pride that is just difficult to describe), the Europa games and level of support, the euros and then the start of the season with Neil Lennon and amazing atmosphere in ER.

May to July just epic.
