As the season has just about ended, can I just say how much I have enjoyed the contributions from BillyHibs and everyone else on this thread. It has been a history lesson and also very informative too.

As the games history dwindles away (Summer Cup & Tour Games only probably!!) and thoughts turn to the new, very different season, please keep up the good work!!

Also enjoy reading this section so many thanks . Great to remember games I actually went to . I`m too young to remember the Summer Cup ( will have been explained already I suppose but why was this tournament invented ? ) but was at ER when we beat Rangers on 31/5/79 and remember us playing in California in May / June 81 ( some players refused to travel cause of contract problems I seem to remember ) . ,Pre season I was at Gibraltar friendly in first days of July 2013 and we`d played at Dumbarton just before that in late June . Apart from this year , close seasons have become very short in recent years . Going back a long time ( about 1972 ) I always remember reading in Evening News that we were playing Middlesbrough in a home friendly on 30th June . Luckily someone in my family phoned ER and we found out game was 30th July ( maybe year Turnbull arrived as manager ) as I lived in the Borders at the time .

I suppose like now where we find ourselves in the middle of a pandemic crisis football clubs are expensive to run and back in 1940 many players and fans were unavailable due to the war and any players that were available were either guest players due to their posting ( Sir Matt Busby) or older players or players in special occupations that were paid on a part time basis

The Summer Cup was the brain child of our Harry Swan to help generate interest among the football starved population and income during the war years and was played May to July

There was also the Southern League Cup a diluted version of the League Cup which HIBS won once
( 1944 versus Rangers 6-5 on corners).

The Summer Cup was never won by more than one team more than once and was presented to Harry Swan by Willie McCartney to be retained in the HIBS boardroom after our inaugural win in 1941

The winners were :

1941 Hibernian

1942 Rangers - defeating Hibernian on the toss of a coin

1943 St Mirren

1944 Motherwell

1945 Partick Thistle defeating Hibernian 2-0

The tournament was reintroduced in 1963/64 for two years

Rangers and Celtic declined to enter

HIBS won in 1964 and Motherwell won in 1965

Hibs have the overall best record in the competition having won it twice and being runners up twice and as I said is on display at Easter Road to this very day

The match versus Middlesbrough 31/7/1971 0-2 was Eddie Turnbulls first game in charge and I remember our new young signing Bertie Auld was having a ding dong battle with Nobby Stiles in the Middlesbrough midfield

Nobby put in an over the ball challenge on Bertie and he fell awkwardly on the brick hard surface damaging his collar bone. Tam McNiven came on and told Bertie he would have to come off “ Give me five minutes “ says Bertie. Two minutes later Nobby Stiles is getting carried off on a stretcher

7/6/1953 Octagonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer Tournament

Vasco Da Gama 3 v 3 Hibernian

Turnbull
Reilly 2

HIBS were invited to play in this unofficial World Club Championship of the World in a tournament that consisted mostly of Brazilian teams

HIBS were drawn in a section that consisted of Vasco Da Gama, Botofago and Fluminese

The first match against Brazilian Champions Vasco Da Gama was to be played in the world famous Maracana Stadium in front of a crowd of 33671

A jet lagged HIBS team performed admirably in the searing heat scoring through Lawrie Reilly 2 and Eddie Turnbull

The Vasco Da Gama third goal was a mile offside but the Referee waved aside the HIBS protests

Turnbull and Bobby Johnstone would both go on to hit the crossbar but the game would finish all square

The match is best remembered for the Brazilian fans fighting amongst themselves on the terraces

HIBS and their entertaining style of play were very well received by the Brazilian fans and in particular Gordon Smith as Vasco Da Gama showed interest in signing him after the tournament

The other non Brazilian sides placed in the tournament were Sporting Lisbon and Olympia of Paraguay

HIBS had been mid-table when Butcher took over in mid November 2013 but he had failed to win a match in any of our last 13 games sucking us into a relegation battle and resulting in our eventual relegation from the top tier in the playoff stages to the Championship.

11/6/1967 North American League Match Day 4

Toronto City 1 v 2 Los Angeles Wolves

Davis (pen)



Hibs faced English cracks Wolverhampton Wanderers in a home match in Toronto

Early in the second half Joe Davis equalised an earlier Derek Dougan goal from the penalty spot.

The big talking point however came midway through the second half when the Wolves winger David Wagstaffe punched Jim Scott in the face in an off the ball altercation.

At first the Referee appeared to send Wagstaffe off only for Derek Dougan to step in insisting that if Wagstaffe went then the rest of the Wolves team would join him in the Dressing Room

This seemed to confuse the Referee who eventually changed his mind and merely booked the Wolves player a quite incredible decision

To make matters worse Dougan himself would score the winner a few minutes from the end after intercepting a poor cross field pass by John Madsen

Wolves would go on to lift the trophy defeating Aberdeen in the Final after extra-time

15/6/1946 Victory Cup Final

Rangers 3 v 1 Hibernian

Aitkenhead

Professional football had been suspended for the duration of the Second World War

The cessation of the war came too late for a proper football season in 1945-46. It was ordered by the SFA that instead of a Scottish Cup which had been withheld for the duration of the conflict a Victory Cup would be competed for in April, May and June of 1946

HIBS had defeated Dundee, Hearts, Partick Thistle and Clyde to reach the Final where they would face Rangers at Hampden Park

The match was unique in that brothers Jock and Davie Shaw would line up against each other on opposing sides

The match kicked off and Rangers were running HIBS ragged with their short crisp neat passing moves Aitkenhead and Peat were having to drop back to help out their beleaguered defence in which Shaw and Govan were performing admirably

They could only hang on for so long however and after 20 minutes Rangers took the lead when following a quick throw in out wide taken by ex Hibee guest Jimmy Caskie to Duncanson who reverse passed the ball back to the winger who whipped in a cross to Gillick whose attempt on goal was diverted past his own goalkeeper by the inrushing Finnigan

Despite going behind Hibernian actually began to grow into this match Gordon Smith in particular was causing Jock Shaw some difficulty

Just before half-time Nutley and Milne cleverly worked the ball up the left hand side exchanging passes A dummy by Nutley allowed his partner to deliver a ball into the Rangers box A lung bursting run by Aitkenhead saw him reach the ball first and thunder it first time beyond Bobby Brown high into the roof of the Rangers net

Rangers kicked off the second half and immediately scored what was reported at the time as being one of the best goals ever scored at Hampden Park

Thornton kicked off and played the ball to Torry Gillick He returned it to Thornton and he in turn passed the ball back to Symon The half back lobbed the ball into the centre to be met by Thornton who had made the run The number 9 laid it off neatly for the arriving Duncanson to lash it into the net from fully 20 yards The first time a HIBS player touched the ball in the second half was to pick the ball out of the net

The goal did little to dampen HIBS spirits however and Gordon Smith continued to torment Shaw down the HIBS right flank forcing Brown into two outstanding saves as HIBS chased an equaliser

Willie Waddell had the ball in the net for Rangers but it was ruled out for an infringement in the build up

The game was sealed in the dying moments however when Waddell found Duncanson with a launched ball downfield who beat all opposition to it being first to the ball and guiding it beyond the advancing Jimmy Kerr

In truth it was a poor performance by HIBS on the day who struggled to assert their authority apart from 20 minutes towards the end of the first half. They struggled against explayer Jimmy Caskie who helped Rangers dominate the game and failed to cope with the absence of the experienced Sammy Kean. Manager Willie McCartney going for a positional change rather than a like for like swap

The Italians did not take kindly to being outplayed and they resorted to underhand tactics kicking punching and head-butting

The Referee warned HIBS about their rough play at half time??

Into the second half and a free for all ensued when Peter Cormack was clearly punched in the face off the ball and Jim Scott was sent off for the first time in his career for bad mouthing the Referee near the end of the game

As the final whistle neared the fans had left their seats and were surrounding the pitch outnumbering the armed police waiting to exact their revenge on the HIBS players

At the final whistle Big John McNamee simply walked off the pitch with his chest puffed out closely followed by his team-mates following in behind and safely into the locker room as the Montreal fans hurled abuse at them

Norrkoping 3 v 1 Hibernian

Hibernian fell to a shock defeat in front of a full house

According to Eddie Turnbull it was the worst case of biased refereeing he had ever witnessed in his whole career; blocking our players, awarding three penalties to the Swedes and even providing the pass for their third goal and waving play on

Things began to go wrong when the crowd refused to return “our” heavy filly and we had to play with their light weight effort which was a big deal in those days

The name Norrkoping would not be forgotten and Turnbull would have his revenge

Norrkoping played a young centre forward Gunnar Nordahl who would become a Swedish legend making his name in Italy

Toronto City 2 v 1 Chicago Mustangs

Cormack

A goal in the first minute by Peter Cormack gave HIBS the lead against crack Italian Serie A side Cagliari

Throughout the remainder of the first half the Italians were guilty of leaving the boot in and grabbing a handful of flesh as well as your jersey at set pieces They would kick and trip you off the ball when they thought the Ref wasn’t looking

Things kicked off half way through the first half when an Italian full back was sent off for punching and head butting Jim Scott who once again found himself to be the unfortunate victim

The Italian was followed into the Changing Room just before half time by Peter Cormack who was sent off for retaliating to the heavy handed treatment that was being handed out his way

Cagliari equalised just after the re-start but things escalated with only seven minutes remaining. Pat Quinn took a quick free-kick to Colin Grant who wasted no time in burying the ball beyond the Italian goalkeeper for the winner

The Referee was immediately surrounded by the Italian players who insisted that he hadn’t blown for the free-kick to be taken Courageously the Referee refused to change his decision and awarded the goal

The Cagliari Manager instructed his players to leave the field of play Many of the fans in the 15000 crowd who were of Italian origin left their seats and they too entered the fray trying to get at the Referee

After a long delay the Italian team still refused to come back onto the pitch and HIBS were awarded the points
