    Celtic v Leeds 1970 136000
    Scotland v England 1970 137000
    Scotland v England 1972 117000
    Hibs v Celtic 1972 106000
    Scotland v Wales Rugby 1975 104000
    .

    The 4 Scotland/England from 1960 onwards were capacity crowds which I think were around 140,000.

    Although the official attendance, there were tens of thousands more at Wembley with the amount of fiver's and then tenners being passed to turnstile operators, many a new home purchased on the proceeds.

    Mental to think of crowds at 137,000!

    I'm not sure what mine would be. Perhaps the LC final v Huns at Parkhead if that was more than 50,000?

    The Rugby one!! I had a driving lesson that day and the instructor took me past murrayfield on the morning of the game, I learned clutch control that day.
    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    Largest Hibs attendance 59k away to Celtic. Largest ever 67k at Murrayfield Scotland v Italy.

    Can only imagine some of the crowds mentioned by you guys.

    There were 114,716 at the 1979 Scottish Cup Final.

    Apart from then, I was at the FA Cup final in 1991 with 80,000 fans.

    And Man U v Watford last month had 73,347.

    That must be the largest crowd I've ever been in. Having said that it didn't feel that crowded where we were under the old egg box north stand - but there were a rather large number of original Rangers fans there - I think it is the first time I heard the word 'fenian'.

    This would have been the total attendance at the three games m8😁

    Scotland v England 1970. Officially a capacity 134000 but supposedly many forged tickets. I bought a terracing ticket outside ground about half an hour before kickoff.

    Biggest crowd I've been part of was Scotland v England at Hampden April '62. Official attendance was 132,441.

    My highest for a game involving Hibs was the 106,000 at the '72 cup final v Celtic.

  30. #30
    Barcelona v Real Madrid 2016 98,902
    England v Scotland 2013 80,000
    Man Utd v Newcastle 2008 76,000

    Highest attendance at a Hibs game probably take your pic from a few visits to Celtic Park since it was fully redeveloped? (58,000-ish?)
