I would struggle with four. What made me love Hibs was that amazing strip running out of the tunnel at ER for the first time as a four year old, they just looked totally magical. As for favourite players, Ally McLeod, John Collins, Franck Sauzee, John McGinn probably spring to mind instantly.

After a horrible period in our history I really fell back in love with Hibs under Stubbs. Felt like I got my club back. My four are..
Malonga
Allan
Gray
Then latterly McGinn.
The game it really hit home was the cup game against undefeated Aberdeen when we tore them up. That was the first time in a long long time I gave them a standing ovation at the end and i admit to having a wee lump in the throat. Hibs were back.

Call me an old romantic but I loved the away team running out to pantomime boos then a minute later Hibs emerging. As you say seeing the strips for the 1st time on match day is almost magical.

Never ever out of love with Hibs. Periods where I hoped they'd be better and the occasional huff but thats as far as it goes. I'm the same with my children.

I realise I'm contributing to a thread hijack, but as another poster said I've never fallen out of love with Hibs - just had wee spells when I went in the cream puff!

Spot on - you might also have mentioned the referee picking up the match ball from a podium as he leads the players out. Pass the sickbag.
Back on topic, and none of my four choices would get in my best XI - not because they weren't good but because there are better options - but they are all players I just loved watching.
John Blackley - my fav when I was a wee laddie, super cool (JB, not me )
Keith Wright - lovely fellah, living the dream playing in the green
John Burridge - daft as a brush, but for those stretching exercises alone gets my nod
Ivan Sproule - landed on his feet at Hibs, and you could just tell he loved every minute

Pat McGinlay - 100% in arguably the most influential position in the team.
David Murphy - so much class for a left back you should bottle it.
Sir David Gray - he made the impossible possible.
Frank Sauzee - name a player that gave four teeth for the cause.
