XI
BEST: Andy Goram, David Gray, Rob Jones, Lewis Stevenson, Franck Sauzee [right], Scott Brown, Russell Latapy, Pat Stanton, John McGinn, Martin Boyle, Derek Riordan.
WORST: Zibi Malkowski, Michael Hart, Daniel Boateng, Pa Kujabi, Colin Murdock, Phil Airey, Edwin de Graaf, Joe Keenan, Alan O’Brien, Islam Feruz, Eduardo Hurtado.
PLAYER
B: There’s plenty of competition but, for my generation, it’s ‘Le God’ Franck Sauzee: an absolute master of football.
W: There’s plenty of competition for this too, but the worst was Eduardo ‘The Tank’ Hurtado. Actual tanks have a smaller turning circle and a better turn of pace.
MOMENT
B: Sir David Gray’s glorious baldy napper connecting with a Liam Henderson corner to win the Scottish Cup in 2016 [right], ending a 114-year hoodoo.
W: Hamilton Academical turning around a two-goal deficit to relegate Hibs on penalties in 2014.
GAME
B: Taking that all-too-obvious Scottish Cup final victory in 2016 out of the equation, 2000’s famous 6-2 win over Hearts is every Hibees’ next favourite.
