Hibernian Hall Of Fame - Goalkeeper - Vote Now!

[Smurf]

As per Wee 162's excellent suggestion after a bit of debate we go to a vote.

Thought 10 options per position makes it fair. Any omission could be debated...

Following the debate i've decided to change my vote. Goram was probably our best Keeper but Leighton & Roughie were not too far behind and the 'character' arguement has brought about a change of opinion on my part as it's our 'Hall of Fame'...

So it's Jim Leighton for me.

[leither#1]

went for goram but if burridge was there would have voted for him

[shandongreen]

jim herriot for me, a top goalie in a top team over a few years...but for the poll would take alan rough as he kept hibs in top leauge all by himself.

[Norwayhibs]

Andy Goram for me,by far the best keeper I have seen playing for Hibs.

[tricky]

plumped for Roughie over Leighton in the poll as I hold him in higher affection than any of the others, couldn't bring masel to vote for the jaked hun Goram despite his excellence for us.

[southfieldhibby]

Jimbo Leighton, only because Goram is a #1 tool.

Also note that Goram still has over 50% of the vote, does this mean we're not all using the same criteria for voting?

[Kenny]

Tommy Younger - so many games in an era when it was acceptable to shove the keeper over the line.

Goram is a lot of things, some not even human.

However, I still remember the downright heroics he performed at times. If it were not for Andy Goram, I suspect the 7-0 songs would be consigned to oblivion.

He's a fucktoid of a person, but a goalie of unqestionable quality who did an unbelievable job for Hibs - including swelling the coffers during our darkest hours.

FWIW, I think he deserves the slack he's getting cut in this poll.

To put it in perspective, Bastard Face is much lower on my Hibee totum pole than Andy Goram.

No question he's the most talented goalie we've had Sean, but a Hall of Fame is about more than just talent is it no?Would he be welcomed back to ER as a matchday host like Pat & Lawrie for example?

I suppose it's what we feel overall Mark?

Abilities, personality, character etc. Could be argued that ultimately it's what they done on the park for us that counts.

Not what they did elsewhere or what they do elsewhere..

That said i just couldn't vote Goram. Happy i've voted for Leighton.

No, I don't think he would be welcomed back, certainly not with a large majority.

I think a hall of fame should be about Hibs Heroes though, not personal or human heroes. after all, there is a lot about most of our past heroes we know little about. I don't want to get into any debates about how saintly or odious some of our past players are/were (but that might be fun one day!) but if it is to be a true hall of fame of our greatest players, then I doubt whether us lot voting have the moral high horse to judge others on their lifestyles.

Of course if he's shunned just for being a Hun, then thats fair do's

[bigmanandy]

Went for Goram but i dont think Leighton was far behind in class, Hibs have mostly had good goalkeepers bar the last couple of seasons.

He was also in large part responsible for the first ever trophy I seen us winning

If he was treated anything like Joe Baker was I doubt he'd be interested.

[Kenny]

Tommy Younger

Alan Rough

Jim Leighton

Andy Goram

[Hogg4Captain]

Daniel Andersson Gave me that class night at Hampden

[Dr Shrink]

The Flying Pig is the best I've seen.

[Vini1875]

Goram is probably the best keeper but couldn't bring myself to vote for a fat loyalist b**tard

[k.manson]
