    What a player Jimmy was. Heartbroken when he left to join Saints and typically scored the winner at ER on his first game back.

    Many happy returns, Jimmy is on my personal first place podium with Pat Stanton. As a small striker Jimmy was who I wanted to grow up to be....

    There is a photo ,taken yesterday with both birthday boys and George Stewart at their wee lunch.

    I don't know how to transfer it to here.
    So hopefully someone else can for others to see the boys enjoying their time together. Nice picture.


    May i add ,George Stewart once broke Jimmy's leg

    I say once ,cos he wouldnae have got away wae it twice !




    Some good times at the Chesser back then when George had it

    Jimmy and Pat are my all time favourite players in a Hibs shirt. Never met Jimmy, might have got his autograph as a nipper, but did see him behind the bar one time in the Corstorphine Inn. Was he landlord their for a while?

    Aye still mind the Sunday Night Disco Sweet Inspiration at the Chesser back in the day

    Big Dode was only too happy to stop and chat aboot the Hibs.

    He always used to say he would have signed sooner but HIBS didn’t come in for him.

    Cut him he bleeds green

    Jackiie MAC is the same probably a Celtic man when he signed but now loves our club

    A Director Of HSL IIRC

    Glory! Glory!
