Mickey Weir crosses the ball for Ted to nod the ball home against Rangers in the Skol Cup Semi final…
Saw it on the retro replay and couldn’t mind who it was… or what happened.
Memory ain’t what it used to be!

Definitely Mark McGraw. Injured versus Dunfermline in a 4-0 win just before the final so didn't play. He chased a long punt from either Hamilton or McGinlay and got flattened by Goram when he cleared it to Mickey

Of course! Shakes head smiley. I remember the clatter now just not that it was McGraw.
I do remember starting a conga from the club downstairs from Negotiants led it up the stairs into Negotiants and back down again. Lost a scarf - gained a sombrero."We know the people who have invested so far are simple fans." Vladimir Romanov - Scotsman 10th December 2012

Mark McGraw played in every game but missed the final
Dave Beaumont signed from Luton Town picked up a winners medal without having played for the club
Can anyone remember the name of the last HIBS player to pick up a medal at Hampden without actually having played for the club ?

It's McGraw, not Mcgraw!

I remember Mark McGraw’s old man Alan getting carried off with a severe leg injury in a League Cup Semi Final with 15 minutes to go against Dundee at Tiny back in 1968/69 with the game finely balanced at 1-1
It looked as though HIBS were down to ten men as HIBS had already made their one substitution with Wee Jimmy O’Rourke replacing the Mighty Quinn
Five minute’s later Alan McGraw reappeared to be greeted by a tumultuous roar from the Hibernian faithful
His role was initially as nuisance value hugging the wing to draw a dark blue shirt to him
Imagine our delight when deep into injury time he managed to deflect a late Eric Stevenson corner into the net off his damaged bandaged knee before colliding with the far post to send HIBS into the final

Of course it was Mark McGraw. I recall during the game that he was injured thinking that he was becoming a very effective player for us, but then it all went pear shaped as a result of that injury. Don't think he was the same after that injury.

Everyone was desperate for McGraw to come good, especially given who his dad was. I also seem to remember that it was seen as a bit of a coup when we signed him from Morton.
However, my memory was that he wasn't really that brilliant - he was nearly 20 when he made his Hibs debit and managed 3 goals in 57 appearance (26 starts).
As a comparision, I'd say Oli Shaw is/was a similar style of player but far better than McGraw.

Was it McGraw the answer??
I remember being behind the goals with Bolton Hibee flat on his back with a bottle of whisky down his throat from the long afternoon journey up from Lancashire! When Keith Keith Keith scored!
That was some game and some trip. Happy days

Bedlam when Keith scored and scenes at FT. With Airdrie going out the night before to struggling Dunfermline we knew we'd won the cup. That didn't stop us making heavy weather of it in the final of course!
