Malpas's goal was a great individual effort, unlike his style of play in the early-1980s where he and his fellow defenders seemed to be having a competition of who can pass the ball back to Hamish McAlpine the most times.

It was about this time that Hibs went on a great run against Utd at Easter Road, lasting some years, which was great, as before then we really struggled against them. Also good, as it was around then I started meeting up before and after games with a colleague of mine who'd just moved down from Dundee and was a big Utd fan
