    40,000 v East Fife at ER. That's incredible, especially considering the cash in a brown paper bag method of counting gates that allegedly prevailed in those days.

    Thanks for posting today.

    Look at that Hibs team v Dundee. Was I not half spoiled seeing that?

    Even at 10 years old you could feel the atmosphere among supporters. Sad thing is I thought it would carry on forever!

    We thought it would always be like this

    18/11/2017 Scottish League Premiership

    Hibernian 1 v 2 St Johnstone

    Stokes pen 91

    This game only came to life after 74 minutes when Murray Davidson headed home Liam Craig’s header across goal to score Saints’ first goal in 620 minutes

    Hibs thought they had at least salvaged a point when Anthony Stokes scored from the penalty spot after Joe O’Shaughessy had handled a Martin Boyle effort in the box in injury time but with the Referee about to blow the final whistle good work by Michael O’Halloran enabled Davidson to get off one final shot that Marciano could not hold and allowed Steven MacLean to slide in to fire home the winner

    Motherwell 1 v 6 Hibernian

    Killen
    Brown
    Sproule 2
    Jones
    Shiels


    John Collins was starting to mould Tony Mowbray’s already good HIBS team into a leaner meaner slicker more direct hungrier outfit as his version of total football blew Motherwell away

    HIBS raced into a 4-0 half-time lead with Scott Brown stabbing home the opener before setting up Chis Killen for the second after Rob Jones had hit the crossbar with a header

    Ivan Sproule added a third when the ball fell kindly for him in the box then added his second and HIBS’ fourth when he raced onto a perfect ball from Beuzelin before drawing Meldrum and slotting home

    Into the second half and HIBS continued to pile forward with Killen going close with a diving header McGarry of Motherwell was twice denied by Zibi who pulled off excellent saves before Jones with a header converted a Kevin Thomson corner

    Steven Fletcher hit the post before McGarry got the consolation his play probably deserved but HIBS were not finished yet as substitute Dean Shiels shot home from close range after good work from Brown

    Hibernian 2 v 2 Celtic

    Hutchinson
    Callachan

    Hibs started their two Norwegian internationalists Isaak Refvik and Sven Mathisen but it was Celtic’s new signings Davie Provan and Murdo MacLeod that scored for them on this day

    The top ten was that tight that prior to kick off Celtic were third with 17 points and HIBS were third bottom with 14 points above both Hearts and Motherwell

    18/11/1972 Scottish League Division One

    Hibernian 1 v 2 Rangers

    Stanton

    Hibs were sitting second in the League but Rangers were building a new team under Jock Wallace and were the better team on the day with their goals coming from Alfie Conn and Graeme Fyfe

    Hibs would exact their revenge the following Wednesday at Hampden Park Glasgow in the Scottish League Cup Semi Final




    18/11/1970 Scottish League Division One

    Morton 2 v 1 Hibernian

    Duncan

    The HIBS team was ravaged by a Flu bug and immediately on arrival Pat Stanton felt unwell and was sent home Arthur Duncan gave HIBS an early lead but second half goals from Osbourne and Sweeney extended Morton’s unbeaten rum to seven

    Back at Easter Road the reserves were hitting St Johnstone for six but there was a sad price to pay as young Kenny Davidson suffered a broken ankle

    St Johnstone 0 v 2 Hibernian

    Fraser
    Stevenson

    Hibs’ big money signing 25k from Man City Gerry Baker made his debut giving the whole place a lift with his character and personality and laying on both goals to give HIBS their first win in two months

    Hibs had to play for a long spell in this game with 10 men as Bobby Kinloch was knocked out cold

    HIBS Simpson Grant McClelland Preston Easton Baxter Fraser Stevenson Baker Kinloch and MacLeod

    Att 7645



    18/11/1950 Scottish League Division One

    East Fife 1 v 2 Hibernian

    Reilly
    Buchanan

    East Fife were going well in the League and HIBS paid the price when they got off to a slow start and Morris put the home side ahead after 12 minutes Tommy Younger then had to look lively in stopping Morris adding a second Lawrie Reilly equalised for HIBS when he was the first to react to a dropped ball by the East Fife goalkeeper in the box

    Archie Buchanan with a second half header secured both points for the Hibees

    HIBS would win the League in this season

    18/11/1882 Scottish Cup Round 4 Replay

    Partick 0 v 4 Hibernian

    After trailing by two goals in the first game at Hibernian Park the green jerseys fought back to force a replay

    The replay was played in front of a big noisy Irish support in Glasgow and Hibernian easily won the game by four goals to nil

    Another team from this area Partick Thistle approached HIBS for a game and it was played the following week at Easter Road the visitors going down by two goals to nil

    It's amazing to think that East Fife were challenging at the top of the league in the early 1950s.

    East Fife were a really strong team in the 1950s . As a kid I thought they looked like a team of giants in their black and gold stripes. Henry Morris was a super centre forward but only got one cap.Scored a hat trick,of course,but never got another chance.Those were the days.

    Sparky came off the bench to save Billy Brown’s blushes scoring his first goal at Easter Road in the 50th minute in off the post from an acute angle

    Kilmarnock had dominated proceedings in the first half taking the lead through Manuel Pascali when Graham Stack failed to hold a Danny Buijs shot

    Hibernian 2 v 3 Falkirk

    Riordan 2


    Derek Riordan gave HIBS the lead against John Hughes’ Falkirk after only 37 seconds when the ball fell kindly to him in the box off Garry O’Connor’s heels from a Beuzelin pass and he fired the ball high into the net Gary Caldwell had a header cleared off the line before that man Riordan again curled a beauty of a free kick into the top corner from 25 yards on the half hour to put HIBS two up

    Into the second half and Daryl Duffy who had twice been denied in the first half by Malkowski managed to flick an O’Donnell cross beyond him to pull one back for the Bairns

    Falkirk equalised under controversial circumstances when HIBS who had claimed for an illegal passback to the goalkeeper were caught on the break and Alan Gow swept home a Duffy pass

    Glennon in the Falkirk goal made saves from Riordan O’Connor and Thomson but as is so often the case in these circumstances Falkirk grabbed the winner when Zibi failed to hold a Kenny Milne cross and Duffy bundled home the winner

    Russell Latapy was introduced as a Falkirk sub on 65 minutes

    Dearie me!

    Probably one of the strangest things I have ever seen in all my years supporting HIBS

    Hibs apparently cruising and Bobby Thomson decides to sprint 50 yards to assault the Standside linesman resulting in a straight red a six month ban and a transfer to Blackpool


    19/11/1960 Scottish League Division One

    Hibernian 2 v 2 Aberdeen

    Kinloch 2

    A double from Bobby Kinloch the second of which was an immaculate diving header

    Brownlee of Aberdeen also scored a brace in this match



    19/11/1955 Scottish League Division One

    Queen Of The South 1 v 3 Hibernian

    Ormond
    Combe
    Reilly

    High flying Queen Of The South were left stunned at half time as they found themselves 0-2 down thanks to strikes from Willie Ormond and Bobby Combe

    The Doonhammers came flying out the traps in the second half with Jim Patterson quickly pulling a goal back Tommy Younger and his defence were then put under severe pressure but they managed to hold firm with Younger in particular performing heroics in the HIBS goal

    Towards the end of the match Hibs caught Queens on the counterattack and Lawrie Reilly fired home a third to seal the points


    19/11/1949 Scottish League Division One

    Hibernian 4 v 1 East Fife

    Johnstone 2
    Ormond 2

    High flying East Fife were weakened for this match due to injuries and international call ups

    HIBS had their own injury problems with Davy Shaw replacing Jock Govan at right back

    Right from kick off HIBS attacked and had two goals disallowed for offside in the first twenty minutes

    Bobby Johnstone opened the scoring on the half hour with a rare header and Willie Ormond added a second before half time

    Both players repeated the trick into the second half to put HIBS four goals up but this game is probably best remembered for Gordon Smith taking a ball on his head just inside his own half and setting off juggling the ball on his head all the way into the East Fife box finishing up with him heading the ball over the goalkeeper and narrowly past the East Fife post to the amazement entertainment and enjoyment of the assembled crowd

    East Fife never gave up and Black scored a deserved late consolation goal for them

    19/11/1898 Scottish League Division One

    Hibernian 3 v 4 Rangers

    Tommy Gemmell x 3

    Hopes were high for the first League clash at Easter Road against undefeated Rangers

    In beautiful weather the Irish were out in force to cheer on their Easter Road favourites

    The 12000 crowd packed into the Holy Ground drew a gate of £311.43

    Tommy Gemmell a new Hibernian forward had a great game opening the scoring amid scenes of almost indescribable delight on the part of the home supporters

    Hibernian were then denied a goal or at least a penalty when a Rangers defender fisted the ball out of the net and the Referee exHearts defender James Adams turned a blind eye

    The Irish navvies threatened a break in and they vented the Referee with colourful language

    Tommy Gemmell however scored another one before Rangers pulled one back before half time

    Rangers equalised into the second half. Play swung from end to end and Tommy Gemmell completed his hat-trick to put HIBS back in front but again Rangers equalised to make it 3-3

    In the last seconds of the game - you guessed it- the ex Hearts Referee gave Rangers a soft penalty from which they scored to win the match

    As the Referee blew for full-time he tried to rush to the safety of the dressing rooms but didn’t make it as the Hibernian navvies disgracefully assaulted him in a hostile demonstration against his blatantly biased refereeing

    Inverness CT 4 v 2 Hibernian

    Riordan 66
    Liam Miller pen 78

    Colin Calderwood’s two game winning run came to a shuddering halt in an entertaining game in the Highland capital

    Trailing to a Richie Foran first half strike Calderwood decided to reshuffle the pack at half-time by replacing Michael Hart for Paul Hanlon and Edwin De Graaf for Danny Galbraith

    This plan worked for all of six minutes when Paul Hanlon handled an Adam Rooney strike on the goal line seeing red for the first and only time in his HIBS career

    Adam Rooney converted the penalty although ex Caley goalkeeper Mark Brown was unlucky and almost kept it out guessing the right way

    Rooney added a double to complete his hat-trick

    Derek Riordan replied for HIBS when he latched onto a short Johnny Haynes pass back and rounded the stranded Esson for a tap in and Liam Miller with a penalty after Colin Nish was felled in the box

    Jim Duffy’s Dundee were no match for Tony Mowbray’s HIBS side as they could not compete with their superior team work, pace and passing ability

    HIBS raced into a two goal lead thanks to a header from Boozy and a typical curler from Derek Riordan

    Steve Lovell pulled one back for the Dee after the break but a further headed goal from Alen Orman and a strike from substitute Dean Shiels near the end had the HIBS travelling support asking Jim Duffy what the score was?

    Steele og

    Rangers dominated the first half hour and led through a Derek Parlane header HIBS then proceeded to dominate the remainder of the game but all they had to show for their efforts was a deflected Bobby Smith goal

    HIBS’ cause was not helped by the fact that midfield genius Alex Edwards had to retire early from the field of play in the first half after being the victim of several heavy tackles


    20/11/1968 Inter Cities Fairs Cup Round 2 Leg 2

    Lokomotiv Leipzig 0 v 1 Hibernian ( Agg 1-4 )

    Colin Grant 3

    After a nightmare journey to Eastern Europe involving three flights and a long bus journey including passing through Checkpoint Charlie HIBS eventually kicked off in Eastern Germany and things could not have panned out any better with the German goalkeeper Friese fumbling an Eric Stevenson cross at the feet of Colin Grant for a welcome tap in after only 3 minutes

    Hibs tried the old ruse of Joe McBride and Colin Grant swapping jerseys to throw the Germans off the first leg hat-trick hero’s scent but funnily enough it was his first game since joining the club that McBride had failed to score

    The Germans huffed and puffed for the remainder of the match but they were unable to breach a HIBS defence superbly marshalled by Pat Stanton

    Roy equalised for Dundee on ten minutes Reilly then gave HIBS the lead and what a peach it was evading two defenders and firing a low powerful shot into the net

    Smith added a third for HIBS in the second half

    He was on a totally different level and the only way Hamilton could stop him was to get him sent off for a second bookable offence



    21/11/1981 Scottish League Premier Division

    Hibernian 1 v 1 Aberdeen

    Callachan

    Neil Simpson gave Aberdeen an early lead but Ralph Callachan equalised when he got his head to a brilliant cross from Duncan that took out the Dons defence

    MOM was Craig Paterson ably assisted by Ally Brazil snuffing out the Dons attack


    21/11/1973 Scottish League Cup Quarter Final Second Leg

    Hibernian 0 v 0 Rangers ( Agg 0-2 )


    This game is memorable because of the unusual kick off time 1.30pm on a Wednesday afternoon due to the power cuts and the possibility of extra time

    A rough and tumble bad tempered affair the Referee was the busiest man on the pitch Rangers had parked the bus and there was no way through

    Hibs found themselves out of the UEFA and League Cups but were sitting pretty in second place in the League

    Bobby Duncan having recently returned from a long term injury was made Captain for this game in place of the injured Pat Stanton


    21/11/1959 Scottish League Division One

    Hibernian 4 v 2 Dundee

    Johnstone 2
    Baker 2

    HIBS lost two early goals to a strong Dundee side containing Bobby Cox Jimmy Gabriel Alan Cousin and Jimmy Bonthrone but with Bobby Johnstone back pulling the strings in midfield HIBS fought back and Nicker set up two for Joe Baker and helped himself to a brace while he was at it


    21/11/1953 Scottish League Division One

    Hibernian 2 v 1 East Fife

    Reilly 2

    Hibs scored a whirlwind early goal when Gordon Smith set up Lawrie Reilly for the opener but disaster struck when young Donald Hamilton who was deputising for Tommy Younger who was away on National Service came for a cross and found himself barged into his own net still clutching the ball after colliding with Jimmy Bonthrone

    Gordon Smith set Lawrie Reilly up for winner in the second half but the strangest thing was at this stage of the season Hibs occupied tenth place in the table and Rangers were eighth

    On a freezing day Terry Butcher brought his Motherwell side to Easter Road looking for their first win in 10 games

    After a goalless first half Steven Ferguson opened the scoring for Motherwell just after half-time

    Motherwell’s Sengewald was then sent off after 55 minutes for a second bookable offence Mixu Paatelainen equalised three minutes later when he headed home a Derek Townsley cross He then turned provider 5 minutes later when he crossed in for Tam McManus to head home to put HIBS 2-1 up

    Grant Brebner then came on as sub with 5 minutes left and was sent off two minutes later for retaliating to Stephen Pearson’s vicious tackle Pearson was also dismissed for the initial tackle to be followed by teammate David Partridge for his part in the post tackle melee

    In the last minute John O’Neil was through on goal only to get hauled down in the box. He picked himself up dusted himself down and stroked home the penalty

    23/11/1955 European Champions Cup Quarter Final First Leg

    Djurgardens 1 v 3 Hibernian

    Combe
    Mulkerrin
    Turnbull

    Hibs went into the match minus Lawrie Reilly who had a chest infection and his place was taken by young Jimmy Mulkerrin

    Hibs were caught cold when the Swedish Champions took the lead after only 90 seconds when Edlund lost his marker and fired home from 18 yards Moments later a shot from Sandberg stung Younger’s fingers

    HIBS were starting to come more and more into the game with Willie Ormond twice going close before Gordon Smith lobbed a ball over a Swedish defender for Bobby Combe to meet perfectly on the volley to fire home the equaliser

    Early in the second half Mulkerrin ran onto a Plenderleith clearance to,put HIBS 2-1 up from a tight angle. Mulkerrin was then tripped up inside the box and the usually dependable Eddie Turnbull sent his spot kick zipping past the post

    The swedes were turning physical and English Referee Ellis was hard pressed to keep them in check

    Eddie Turnbull atoned for his penalty miss when he scored a third 5 minutes from the end in off a defender

    Ironically, our league game between the 2 Djurgarden games was against Partick Thistle! Lawrie actually missed 4 or 5 games & his replacement Jimmy Mulkerrin scored in most of them. Lawrie came back against Dundee when we scored 6 but he wasn't on the scoresheet!

    The 3 2 game against Rangers when Johnston was sent off resulted in a Boardroom rammy. Willie Waddell demanded Rangers receive their share of the gate before they left. Tommy Younger collected the bags full of coins, almost threw Waddell down the stairs then threw the bags down after him.
    Those were the days!

    The Johnston sending off caused much hilarity.He got himself into our defensive wall so that he could needle our players.The inevitable happened in that it was Johnston who got needled and he started punching and kicking,I think the last straw was when Jim Blair stamped on his foot.

    Just to show off I saw Tommy Younger make a fantastic save from a Waddell header. Younger who was pretty bulky as a player had to change direction in mid air when Waddell tried to head the ball one way and it hit the wrong side of his head and went the other way.Think it was 2-2 that day.
