11/3/1967 Scottish Cup Round 3
Hibernian 1 v 1 Aberdeen
Stevenson 16
Aberdeen were a dour team and set up defensively for this fixture They had to resort to plan B when Eric Stevenson crashed a left footed shot high past Bobby Clark from 18 yards on the quarter hour
“In the next round a real blood and thunder clash against Aberdeen I scored possibly the best goal of my career Receiving a one two from Pat Quinn just inside the box I hesitated briefly before crashing a thunderous first time left foot drive past Bobby Clark into his top left hand corner for my first ever goal in the Scottish Cup “
Aberdeen were forced out of their shell and HIBS appeared to be coping admirably until Jimmy Smith punished a moment of slackness in the 86th minute

Hibernian 4 v 2 Dundee
Reilly 2
Smith
Johnstone
A horror show from young Dundee goalkeeper Bill Brown handed HIBS the points
For the first he clashed with Lawrie Reilly pulling his jersey back the ball broke free and trickled over the line the Referee decided to dispense with the penalty and awarded the goal The second a hopeful cross from Gordon Smith sailed over his head and in off the back post The third he allowed a tame shot from Reilly to squirm from his grasp and over the line
Dundee pulled a goal back through Gerrie but their hopes of a revival were crushed when Bobby Johnstone added a fourth
Gerrie scored a late consolation for Dundee to make the score more respectable
Bill Brown would go on to have a distinguished career with Dundee Tottenham Hotspur and Scotland winning the Scottish League Cup, English First Division, 2 x FA Cups, 2 x Charity Shields and the ECWC

11/3/1925 Scottish League Division One
Hibernian 4 v 1 Rangers
McColl 3 68
Walker 18
Halligan 43
In arranging for a five o’ clock kick off HIBS Manager Alec Maley was taking a gamble with the weather He was rewarded for his optimism as the light held out Not only were the conditions perfect but a crowd of over 20000 turned out
HIBS ran amok and led by three at half time with counters from ‘Darkie’ Walker, Jimmy McColl and Johnny Halligan
In the second half Jimmy McColl added a fourth as Hibernian set about their work with renewed vigour and always looked certain winners even if they continued to miss chances at the rate they had been doing The score was not at all flattering to the Irishmen who with better finishing the final score would have been overwhelming
Hibs were now second in the league having pushed Rangers into third place Airdrie were now top of the League but it was very tight
