Was there. Disco Dave Mcpherson scored a belter for us - diving heeder - galoot!

McCoist comes on as sub and scores. Mare

We could and should have won IIRC. However, I was extremely pished that day. There was a good support from Hibs aswell. I was just along from the animals in the jungle.

what a riot when we equalised we didn't really start playing until Durrant scored for them first.

And we should have had a penalty in the first half.

silenced the knuckle dragging legions until this heartbreaking moment.......

The most mishit overhead kick in bastarding history.

Must have been something in the air that day regarding drink cause I was absolutely blootered at the game. So pished in fact that it wasn't until the next day that I knew it was an OG cause I thought Keith Keith Keith had scored without it taking a touch off anyone. I also climbed Salisbury Crags that night, stole a traffic island, and was somehow not lifted with a half ounce of blow on me (which I had not realised I had till after being stopped by the polis (wasn't mine, and I'd forgot to give it back to the boy who I'd made a dooby for!)).

The faux orange walk at half time was particularly amusing in the reaction it caused from the Hibs end as they went past

If they'd had the rolled up brollies they might have been better able to shelter from the absolute cascade of stuff that rained down on their parade

[hibbychubbs]

i think we all knew that bar steward would score when he came on as sub as it was his 1st game back after his broken leg iirc

cheers dude i've been lookin' for that for ages. Whoever uploaded it edited out the unbroken wall of Hibs scarves singing YNWA at at the final whistle, either that or sportscene ignored it. Terracing was barry! Damn that taylor report!

You feel sorry for some of the younger fans who never got the chance to stand on proper terraces like that

First time i've watched any highlights of that game.

I thought on the day we were poor. We had been playing some great football leading up to that final with Wright, Jackson, McAllister & O'Neil but we were rotten on the day.

I was gutted as i thought we'd win. Still think if we had played our game rather than adopt a gameplan to counter the Huns we would have.

Great Richard Gough chants that day..

gordon hunter missed an absolute sitter just before ally mccoist scored

There was even a guy on the bus from the Laich/Chesser area teaching a load of 4-5 year old hibbies that song. They must be 19/20 now.

RICHARD GOUGH C-M ( repeat x all day)

Missed that cup final as I was away on a school exchange in Italia.

Got home a week or so later and my Dad asked if I wanted to watch the game, which he had taped. He pressed play and showed David Farrell absolutely cementing Mark Hateley on the touchline. He pressed stop and said "there you go". Brilliant.

Saw Farrell on a flight to Dublin a few months ago and really wanted to mention that tackle to him.
