Sitting here greeting... - HibeesBounce.com

Now I don't really cry, and I'd struggle to recall the last time I did. I'm generally a heartless bassa. But watching the game on TV for the first time I now find myself in floods of tears just after David Murphy starts being interviewed.

Its when JC is looking down at the pitch with tears in his eyes that really starts me going and now I can barely see the screen.

Previously the most emotional Hibs footage I'd ever seen was Joe Baker at the 1990 rally when he started kissing the pitch - to be honest this even eclipses that.

Without doubt the most spiritual moment I've ever experienced as a Hibee.

The bit where Benji and Murph were being interviewed was brilliant. Benji's answer to the "is this the best day of your life question" was something like "the best day for the fan of Hibs, thousands singing you can hear them" Go Benji

Fast becoming a legend. But back to the point, I've admitted to shedding a tear when atching the game again at that point. Youre right about the JC part as well...it said a lt really for the ay the fans felt, how the team elt about the fans and how the manager felt about both. Fukin magic mate fukin magic.

Before the match I knew if we won I'd be greetin like a bairn, but was just stood, cheering, dancing, watching etc etc.................

...and then the first piano notes of SOL hit, and that was me away!

I agree - and was the same when I watched it again yesterday - it's a spiritual moment.

Greenmachine · 20-03-07, 23:50

Just finished watching the game and the after-match celebrations again on video. I said to my sister when the team were parading the cup round Hampden, that this was the best moment of my life as a Hibs supporter, and I stand by that. Just sheer joy.

nabser · 21-03-07, 00:32

I knew if we won i would shed a tear but when sol came on the taps really started to run,it was truly awesome.

anyone else think if they play a hibs song before the SC semi they should play SOL instead of 500 miles? I know it doesnt get the crowd bouncing like 500 miles does but there's nothing like it for making you proud to be a hibee

FergosMonchacha · 21-03-07, 01:27

It was a special great moment at the end when the fans sang and certainly the best moment as a Hibee - there wi ma auld boy singing and celebratin.....the fans were amazing.

Sunshine On Leith fir me should be left for special moments like that.

Amazing

Hibernian Forever.

Sometimes I think my fingers fly over the keyboard with a mind of their own and they decide what should be typed not me.

Either that or even at the early hour I posted I may well have been lillian gished.

***Hibee Kev*** · 21-03-07, 14:23

I have to admit to shedding a tear just after Benji's first flew in. I think it was at that point I realised we were going to do it. I had anticipated a tense, low-scoring match that would go to the wire so I couldn't believe we had a 2 goal cushion!! Little did I suspect things would actually get even better!:YAYYY:

jonesy · 21-03-07, 14:58

Ever since my son was born 16 months ago ive been an emotional wreck, greeting at his birth. I even had a greet when I got married last Sept.

When we were all singing SOL at the end of the game on Sunday I was so proud to be a Hibby and i felt my eyes filling up so i could hardly see.

Standing there with my mates I never though I would see us win a cup as a grown man as we were all just wee laddies when we won in 91, it was a great moment!

SOL what an anthem and what a great bunch of supporters we are!

leither#1 · 21-03-07, 16:10

sol did it for me was played at a good pals funeral last year hope he was watching cause the boys did him proud

Egan Number 6 · 21-03-07, 16:28

Have to admit the tears were flowing myself when sol came on. You can keep all the "never walk alones" in the world with celtic and liverpool , sol is the business. Amazing stuff. Can only imagine how Craig and Charlie felt.

They only played it beacause we had won it. 500 miles has become more of a scottish anthem aswell so i don't think that would happen.

they were guests on the Chris Moyles show on radio 1 yesterday. sounded like they'd had a brilliant time at the final, they'd also brought their guitar and started playing a few songs live in the studio, top guys!
