First game back this Friday against Utd

Fantastic for the boys to start playing again.

Full contact training restarted on Monday 5/4/21 for 2006 squad so would imagine all age groups will be the same this week.

Can the lads out on loan play in these games. Thinking Fairley/Brydon etc
Also must be a few loaned to Lowland league, who aren’t playing any football just now

[The Modfather]

Is there any chance of a youngster coming in next season and having the impact Doig has? I’m thinking the age groups below Murray, Campbell, Dabrowski etc. Or is Gullan, who is still to fully convince IMO, probably the most likely to break through if anyone will.

How old/close are the likes of Josh O’Connor?

Isn’t Josh 16?

We seem to have a good young crop at under 18 level
Looking forward to hopefully seeing them in the flesh, next season

Anyone know if this boy is local? I went to school with good Hibby Blaney’s and I also recall that one of their auld fellah’s was Brian Blaney, a Southern Branch Hibs Club stalwart way back that some might remember.....be nice to think there’s a connection.

Ah well. Unless the net spread a good bit wider than Elgin Terrace it’s looking unlikely Billy.

Wouldn’t say Blaney is a common name, so could be a relative

My thoughts too, Irish origin I suppose and plenty of those to be found in Coatbridge.
Hopefully though.

There was a John Blaney who ran Edina Hibs back in the day, was a Hibby from Portobello.

John is a fellah I went to school with. Family came from top of Easter Rd / Montgomery St area and his auld boy was a Hibs Club vice chair (I think).
Might be no connection whatsoever!

It was Brian and Roy McLean that stood up for us when all us young whippersnappers tried to join the Southern. He used to play his keyboard up in Ross's bar Eddie Turnbulls old pub.

The very man. His accompaniment to my take on “From A Jack To A King” was much renowned back then, everywhere from Rossie Place to Bothwell Street folk would shut their windaes.

Well I hope John Blaney is looking in after this chat progressed as it has and I really hope he and Jacob are related.
I also hope Jacobs a better player than he was
