HIBS Hall of Fame opened its doors again last night and I quarantee my old pal Alan Rough won't miss the opportunity to remind me he's in there - and I'm not.
Roughie loves to tell folk if they walk up the staircase at Easter Road they'll see him on the wall but if they go into the toilet they'll see me in the urinal! It's all good banter. My old pal did make nearly 200 appearances for the club over six years although he won the same as me nowt.
But he was a big figure for Hibs and a great character and deserves his place in the roll of honour.
As do last night's inductees.
It was absolutely brilliant to see modern-day legends Paul Hanlon and Lewis Stevenson inducted along with Joelle Murray, Alex Edwards, Tom Hart and Suzy Shepherd.
Hanlon and Stevenson's achievements should be pinned up on a wall for every player at the club now - including those coming through the academy -to see exactly what is possible.
Stevenson is a Scottish Cup winner, League Cup winner, has played 600 games for the club and is fourth in the club's alltime appearance list.
