On this day in history

[gbhibby]

Remember my dad and his Hibby workmates going to travel agents to explore ways of how to get to Salonika such was the confidence at the time. Listened to second leg on radio, so disappointed, was looking forward to going abroad for the first time. Does anyone remember Alex Edwards right hook which floored the Split player who had been fouling him all night. Thank god the officials did not see it.

One of my earliest ER memories was being at a QOS game, and it might have been that one. Anybody remember who Falconer was?

only slight remembrance of him as his winner in Utrecht has been discussed with folk previously, also thinking i may have been at the QOS game you mentioned, if it was the one where John Parke scored the best own goal ive ever seen then i definitely was there with my dad.

The Hajduk Split tie has got to go down as one of Hibs biggest what if moments. We would have played Leeds United in the semi finals (who progressed to the final but lost 1-0 to AC Milan) The final was in Greece just how bl00dy good would that have been.

Definite chance missed . I remember the 4 v 2 game . Late goal we lost made a big difference though we would have gone out on away goals if 4 v 1 then 0 v 3 . John Blackley was sent off in the second leg . 6 against Sporting Lisbon , 7 against Besa and 4 against Hadjuk Split . In those days even the best of teams were often thrashed away from home .

A classic Scottish Cup tie and a match that had everything Played in a gale with an electric atmosphere it had goals, controversy, crunching tackles, penalties and all topped off with a pitch invasion

There was no TV coverage thanks to a dispute so 20000 crammed into Easter Road

Celtic took a 1-0 half-time lead thanks to a Brian McClair strike from a corner

Stevie Cowan equalised when he bundled the ball over the line in 51 minutes going down the slope

Mark McGhee put Celtic back in front 10 minutes later when he hammered a pass from Johnston into the roof of the net Gordon Chisholm then headed HIBS level with a towering header Stevie Cowan put HIBS 3-2 ahead from the penalty spot

Celtic were then awarded a soft penalty two minutes later that McClair scored with only minutes left on the clock

Joe Tortolano then swept a beautiful ball over to the right wing to substitute ‘ Bomber Harris’ who swept in a low cross that was met by the almost prostrate diving figure of Eddie May to head HIBS into the semifinals of the Scottish Cup and send the East radge

10/3/1923 Scottish Cup Semi Final

Hibernian 1 v 0 Third Lanark

Jimmy Dunn


Hibernian and Third Lanark played out their Scottish Cup Semi Final at Tynecastle on Saturday 10th March as 30000 HIBS supporters turned Gorgie Road green The ‘celebrated team’ again filled the green jerseys and Jimmy Dunn the smallest man on the park headed home the only goal of the game after fifteen minutes to give HIBS a hard fought victory

Both teams played grand Cup tie football but the volunteers could not break down the HIBS defence in which Willie Harper played his part

The Hibernian forwards were smarter than the very able Third Lanark attack and the Irishmen won narrowly but deservedly So Alec Maley’s celebrated Hibernian team were in the final of the Scottish Cup

That 79 cup game v the tarts was my first Derby match. It started a series of firsts for me. The semi win v Aberdeen was my first trip to Hampden and the final was my first Scottish Cup final loss!! Sadly not the last🙄

My memory is of the really tight segregation for that game and watching George Stewart and Gordon Rae playing for HIBS was like supporters living the dream

I can still picture the delight on both their faces when they celebrated their goals

Even when O’Connor scored you could see that their supporters knew it was a consolation as there was no way we were losing that match

Not forgetting Jackie and Ralphie who were also big hibbies

One of my biggest memories of the day was all the tarts fighting amongst themselves and the with the polis. It was probably the day that really cemented that I was Hibs through and through for life. *******s!😆
