Yeah, I remember both the North and South stands being referred to as wing stands. I've still got my first 3 season books for the old North (ok I'm a hoarder). The earliest one is from season '71/72 and cost £6!!! My bench seat was in the 3rd front row C58. I do miss the the old stand, we had some great times up there with some real characters. Happy days.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

About twenty years ago. I worked in the 'Disgorging Unit' (what a disgusting name!)
There was a couple other Hibbies in there at the time.

100% no benches in the East (I was being a bit cheeky with my original question).
As suggested above when terracing was outlawed Hibs converted terracing to seating by installing widely spaced concrete blocks (on the existing terrace steps) with metal bars running atop the blocks. The bucket seats were then fastened to the bars.

The Easter Road Cagoule sounds like a murder mystery.

Who killed Duncan?
Was it Sinister Craig Le-Vain? The Evil Doctor Budgerigar?.... Or was it all one massive conspiracy organised by that Moustachioed Monster, the Duke of Bitter Hobos, Rodney Petrie-Dish?
The plot thickens!
