THE AWAY END:
ST MIRREN
FOOTBALL CLUB
Hibernian welcomes the players, management, officials
and supporters of St Mirren to Easter Road Stadium for
this afternoon’s Championship fixture.
Last season was one to forget for today’s visitors; they
never really got going under former boss Tommy Craig and
by the time he was replaced by Gary Teale in December,
the damage was already done.
The club moved during the summer to bring in former
Hibernian and Rangers defender Ian Murray and have
backed him during the recent transfer window.
The Buddies are in a transitional phase at the moment
and given the massive turnaround in personnel during the
summer, the team have understandably taken time to gel.
Club captain Stephen Thompson recently admitted that St
Mirren have perhaps taken time to adjust to life outside of
the top flight and have been caught out by the standard of
football in the Championship.
It hasn’t been the best of starts for Murray’s new-look side
who go into this afternoon’s contest sitting third bottom
on the league on five points.
Petrofac Training Challenge cup victories over Berwick
Rangers and Annan Athletic did little to mask a
disappointing start to the campaign.
6
An opening day defeat against Rangers at Ibrox was
quickly followed by a surprise home loss against Murray’s
former side, Dumbarton.
A goal-less draw in the Renfrewshire Derby against Morton
gave them their first point of the new season and was soon
followed by another against basement boys Livingston.
Sean Kelly and Stephen Thompson scored the goals as
St Mirren comfortably claimed all three points from
their encounter with Queen of the South, however any
confidence gained from that brief run of results evaporated
with home defeats against Falkirk and Raith Rovers.
St Mirren last month moved to snap-up former Aberdeen
goalkeeper Jamie Langfield just days after he left Pittodrie
for the final time. Langfield, 35, made 335 appearances
during his ten years with the Dons and was given a
testimonial match against Brighton & Hove Albion last
month. The former Dundee, Dunfermline Athletic, Raith
Rovers and Partick Thistle keeper joins his hometown club
on a two-year deal as a Player-Coach.
Versatile full-back Keith Watson joined the Buddies on a
short-term contract until January after being released by
Dundee United. The 25-year-old spent the second half
of last season on loan to Hibs and nine appearances for
the club. He spent part of the summer training with the
club however injury hampered his chances of a deal. A
combative, full-hearted defender, Watson will seek to get
forward whenever opportunity allows.
Defender Jack Baird came through the club’s youth
academy and broke through into the Paisley club’s first
team midway through last season. The 19-year-old
made his senior bow last November in a 3-0 defeat away
to Hamilton Academical. Baird has featured in all of St
Mirren’s games this term.
Veteran defender Andy Webster recently joined St Mirren
on a one-year deal, with the option of a year’s extension.
The former Scotland international has enjoyed a successful
career with the likes Heart of Midlothian, Wigan Athletic,
Rangers, Dundee United and Coventry City. Webster, who
has had his fair share of injury problems over the years,
picked up Scottish Cup winners’ medals during his time
with Hearts and Dundee United.
Defender Sean Kelly came through the youth ranks at St
Mirren Park before making his first team debut against
Inverness Caledonian Thistle in August 2013. The defender,
who has been capped by Scotland at under-21 level, was
loaned out to Montrose and East Stirling for experience.
Kelly scored his first goal of the new campaign during St
Mirren’s recent win over Queen of the South.
St Mirren moved quickly to recruit Stuart Carswell after
the midfielder was released by Motherwell during the
close season. The 21-year-old joined on a one-year deal
with the option of a further year. Carswell made 21
appearances – starting 16 times – as Motherwell retained
their Premiership status through the Play-Offs.
Midfielder Stephen Mallan was thrust into the Scottish
football limelight last season when his sensational solo
goal against Dundee became a social media sensation.
The 18-year-old came through the club’s youth system
and is key player in Murray’s midfield. Mallan has scored
twice this term – both games ending in 3-2 defeats against
Livingston and Falkirk respectively.
Former Republic of Ireland internationalist, Jim Goodwin,
began his career with Celtic and has enjoyed spells with
Stockport County, Scunthorpe United, Huddersfield Town,
Oldham Athletic and Hamilton Academical. At times the
33-year-old Irishman appears to revel in his role as the
pantomime villain of Scottish football. He thrives in the
heat of a battle, the tough-tackling, no nonsense veteran
loves nothing more than a physical challenge. Goodwin
has been sent off twice during the last six meetings of the
clubs.
Manager Murray took a gamble during the summer,
bringing in midfielder Cameron Howieson following the
22-year-old’s release from Burnley. Howieson made
his debut for the Clarets aged 17 and already has nine
international caps for New Zealand. The midfielder wasted
little time in making an impression at his new club, scoring
against Rangers in his second match for the Buddies.
St Mirren signed forward Calum Gallagher from
Championship rivals Rangers on the eve of the new
campaign, with the 21-year-old making his Buddies debut
against his former employer just days later. Gallagher
played five times last season for Rangers and has
previously been farmed out to Alloa Athletic, East Stirling
and Cowdenbeath to gain first team experience.
Another of Murray’s new recruits is on-loan Aberdeen
striker Lawrence Shankland. The 20-year-old, who joined
Aberdeen from Queen’s Park in 2013, scored seven goals
in 13 appearances for Dunfermline Athletic while on loan
to the League One club last season. Shankland netted
his first goal for the Buddies last weekend against Raith
Rovers but was unable to prevent his side from falling to
another defeat.

GLORY
D AY S
VIDEOTON 0-3 HIBERNIAN
A feast of goals in Hungary
Hibernian had not featured in European competition
for 11 years before being drawn out against Videoton
of Hungary. The appearance prior to that was in 1978
as Strasbourg won 2-1 on aggregate in the second
round of the UEFA Cup.
For Videoton they had not suffered a lean spell, instead
they featured prominently in European football in the
mid-1980’s. The Hungarians enjoyed a run to the final
of the UEFA Cup in the 1984/85 season – defeating
Dukla Prague, Paris Saint-Germain, Partizan Belgrade and
Manchester United on the way.
A semi-final victory over Bosnian outfit Zeljeznicar
ensured the side from Western Hungary faced off against
Real Madrid in the final. Despite being overturned 3-0 at
home, a Lajos Majer strike gave the unfancied Eastern
Europeans a shock victory at the Bernabeu.
When Hibernian were paired with the Hungarians there
was a sense of trepidation, but that was soon forgotten
about when the side’s met at Easter Road on 12 September
1989. After taking control of the game, the side won the
first leg 1-0, thanks to Graham Mitchell effort.
10
Mitchell, who scored in the first leg, rode a challenge
before embarking on a run down the wing. His left-foot
cross was accurate and found Keith Houchen’s run, and
the English forward powered a header beyond Zsolt Petry.
The Hungarians were unsettled by the goal and became
more aggressive – but not in a footballing sense. Instead
Hibs were faced with a barrage of dirty tricks and
overzealous challenges, but Miller’s side remained largely
calm and continued their relentless harrying of Videoton.
John Collins received a booking in the 45th minute, along
with Jozsef Takacs. It was a harsh booking for Collins, with
his opponent ripping a gold chain from his neck and it
falling on the turf of the Sostoi Stadion, and a mild
reaction from the Hibs number 10 was given the same
punishment as the initial provocation.
Tamas Petres was given a straight red with 52 minutes on
the clock for punching Neil Cooper in the face, and seven
minutes later the striker’s side were made to pay.
Two weeks later, and incidentally 26 years to the date of
today’s game against St Mirren, the second leg occurred.
The city of Szekesfehervar was inundated with Hibs fans
eager to lend their support to the side, and they were duly
rewarded by Alex Miller’s side.
Alan Sneddon floated a free-kick towards the dangerous
Houchen, and his aerial prowess was on show again as he
beat his marker to the ball and watched as his header flew
towards the goal. Unfortunately for the experienced striker,
he watched as the ball ricocheted off the woodwork. It
bounced out onto the edge of the six yard box where an
onrushing Gareth Evans tapped the ball home to make it
2-0 before the hour mark had been passed.
It took just nine minutes for Hibs to get the away goal
that Miller so badly craved. Indeed it was to be before the
game took place that the manager admitted he wanted
his side to get a goal within the first ten minutes.
Hibs continued to dominate, and the travelling support
from Scotland were lapping up the stylish football on
show from the side. Smooth, flowing passing with a
calmness on the ball showed that the Easter Road side
could still cut it on the European stage – despite a hiatus
It was a classy and clinical performance in Hungary,

dropped into the box and Collins smashed a left-footed
effort into the net to seal a sensational victory.
That night in Hungary is still retold with a sense of vigour
and zest by the fans who travelled beyond the “Iron
Curtain” to give Alex Miller’s side unbelievable backing
and the reward came after the game. After celebrating the
sensational victory, the supporters called upon their team
to take a bow on the running track – the manager and
players obliged.
The victory was the first in an away leg of European
competition for Hibs in 15 years, going back to a 3-2
victory over Norwegian heavyweights Rosenberg in
Trondheim.

LONG ROAD
BACK TO LEITH
DARREN McGREGOR
A Leither born and bred, Darren McGregor has finally
found his way back home to Leith after 11 years as a
senior footballer.
McGregor grew up in North Fort Street and attended Fort
Primary School, before going on to study at Trinity Academy.
He recalls his time at school fondly, but admits that there
was no football team until he reached fourth year of high
school – opting to play rugby instead.
He said: “I went to Trinity Academy, so I was on the cusp and
I could have gone to Leith Academy. I went
to Fort Primary and most of the pupils went
to Trinity.
“We never had a school football team until
we were fourth year, but we played rugby
and some people thought I should have
stuck with that.”
Hibernian Football Club has always been
the apple of his footballing eye, and as a
youngster he used to enjoy watching the
sides of Alex McLeish and Tony Mowbray.
After impressing and developing at the Gorebridge club, in
2008 he was signed again by his former side Cowdenbeath
– this time his spell was more successful and in 2010 his
manager, Danny Lennon, left the Fife outfit to join St Mirren.
McGregor was one of his first signings.
If you got
caught by
a security
guard you got
flung out and
tried again 20
minutes later
McGregor admitted that he could not
afford to attend the matches, so often had
to make do with scaling a fence at the back of the old East
Stand to watch his heroes play. Sometimes he would be
thrown out, but he was persistent.
16
It was not always an easy road for the defender, he did
not make it as a professional until 2004, aged 19, with
Cowdenbeath, but two years later he found himself plying
his trade with Arniston Rangers.
Recalling those memories, he said: “I actually snuck into a few
games because we couldn’t afford to pay so I was hopping
over the wall to watch Hibs play. It was just a free-for-all once
you hopped the fence into the East Stand.
“If you got caught by a security guard you got flung out and
tried again 20 minutes later – that was how my Saturdays
were spent.”
That perseverance and willingness to succeed helped
McGregor in his goal to become a full-time footballer.
He said: “I took a while to mature and I was
24 when I got my break – it was through
Cowdenbeath. The manager, Danny Lennon,
left Cowdenbeath to join St Mirren and he
took me there with him.
“I had four great years there and then I
went to Rangers for a year, before thankfully
ending up here.”
Whilst at St Mirren, he received two
serious injuries in successive seasons, but
he bounced back from those setbacks and
earned himself a move to Rangers.
After one year at the Ibrox side, his future
lay along the M8 and at the stadium where his thirst for
football started. The move happened quickly, and he admits
that it was always a dream of his to pull on the jersey and
play for Hibernian.
“It’s a cliché and it’s used a lot, but it’s genuinely a dream
come true. For a boy from Leith who grew up supporting
Hibs, they were always at the top of my list of teams to play
for.
“I grew up watching Sauzee, Latapy, Paatelainen and then
the newer generation of Fletcher, Riordan, O’Connor, Brown
and Whittaker – I’ve got some really happy memories of
watching them when I was younger.
“Hibs would have been my priority when I turned pro if I was
given the chance, but I’m thankful that I’ve now been given
it in the latter stages of my career, but I’m hoping to enjoy
it and do well.”
It is no surprise that his idol growing up was a certain Franck
Sauzee. McGregor tried to emulate the Frenchman’s game,
but admits he has fallen short of being in his category.
“I’ve tried to base my game off Sauzee – but I think I’ve
missed the mark quite widely! He was great technically, he
was ahead of his time and I think Hibs were lucky to get him
when we did.
“For me being a defender, just seeing him take free-kicks that
was quite uncommon back then, he was so calm on the ball
which is rare for defenders so I definitely appreciated him in
a Hibs strip.”
He admits that if they were to succeed that it would jump
straight to the top of his footballing achievements as his
favourite. He is also not discounting a title charge from Hibs,
as he feels there is nothing between the side and his former
employers.
He said: “Getting promoted with my boyhood heroes would
probably be my number one football memory. It would
be great. Last year it was unfortunate in the play-offs, this
year Rangers are looking strong, but I believe that we can
challenge.
“I’ve trained and been in the dressing room at Rangers and
done the same at Hibs – we’re not far away, there’s a lot of
good players here. We just need to win the games in and
around the Rangers game, and then when it comes it will be
a big effort. We’re looking very strong.”
Promotion back to the top flight of Scottish football is the
aim for the season for Hibernian, and that is something
McGregor wants to achieve with his boyhood heroes.
17
IN THAT NUMBER:
NUMBER SEVEN
A L E X E DWA R D S
An exciting winger that wowed Easter Road crowds
for seven years, producing many memories playing
in green and white.
Alex Edwards joined Hibs in 1971, but prior to that
the winger enjoyed a great time at his hometown
team Dunfermline Athletic.
Aged just 16 years and 5 days, Edwards made his firstteam debut for the Pars – making him the second
youngest player to feature in a senior Scottish league
match. His manager was Jock Stein, who himself would
manage Hibernian, was a firm believer in the ability of a
player far outweighing his age.
And he was not wrong. Edwards would enjoy a fine spell
at Dunfermline – including featuring in the Fife outfit’s
stunning 6-2 victory over Spanish giants Valencia at East
End Park. To put that into perspective it was the first time
a British club had toppled the might of Los Che.
20
The trio were to be a massively important part of the side
that won the 1972 League Cup final, defeating Aberdeen,
Dundee United, Airdrieonians and Rangers en route to
the famous victory at Hampden Park. The Ibrox side met
their match in the semi-final as the skilful and electrifying
trio left players with the stature of John Greig and Sandy
Jardine chasing shadows for the entirety of the match.
Indeed it was to be a Brownlie goal that sent Hibs into
the final.
Hibs had not long lost 6-1 to Celtic in a Scottish Cup Final,
and with defeat fresh in the minds of the players, it was
After winning the Scottish Cup in 1968, playing a
prominent role on the right-wing in the 3-1 victory over
Heart of Midlothian, Edwards remained at Dunfermline for
three more years. It was not until 1971 that the thrilling
winger moved across the Firth of Forth to play in green
and white.
Eddie Turnbull was the manager at the time, and his
shrewd acquisition of Edwards came in at £13,000.
The penetrative attacking skillset of the winger saw
him became a prominent part of the Hibs attack. The
chemistry that was forged between John Brownlie, Pat
Stanton and the iconic number seven was a joy to behold
for the support on the Easter Road terraces.
easy to believe that they would falter yet again to the
powerful Hoops side. But it was not the case.
After bossing the game, with Edwards a pivotal figure in
giving defenders such as Billy McNeill a difficult time,
Hibs took the lead on the hour mark. From a set-piece the
winger found Stanton and the inspirational captain made
it 1-0 with a fine finish. Six minutes later and the strings
were being pulled by the number seven again. This time
his pass found Stanton on the right wing, and with the
Celtic defence all at sea, and busy marking Alan Gordon, a
cross was headed home by Jimmy O’Rourke to ensure that
silverware was heading back to the capital city.
Not even a Kenny Dalglish goal could dent the confidence
of Turnbull’s Tornadoes in the closing stages of the match,
nor could it stop the side lifting the trophy and parading
it along Princes Street – thanks to the industry and guile
of Edwards.
In many cases that would be enough to achieve you
legendary status at any club, the League Cup was the first
major trophy that Hibs had won since 1902, but Edwards
kept the good times rolling and continued to help the side
hit new heights. It all came to a nice boil on New Year’s
Day, 1973.
Calling the shots on a memorable derby victory, the winger
ensured his name was added to folklore as part of the
side that demolished rivals Hearts 7-0 at Tynecastle. His
exquisite pass to Gordon carved the hosts defence apart
and the forward chested the ball down, before slamming it
into the net to net the second goal on that day.
Every time Hibs went forward, the side looked like scoring,
and they were directed in attack by Edwards – the chief
tormentor of that faithful Edinburgh Derby victory. Sadly,
he could not bag a goal for himself, although his teammates did try to help him get on the scoresheet.
That sent Hibs top, but it was unfortunate as a few days
later things turned sour for the Club – and Edwards
himself. East Fife arrived at Easter Road and were set to
frustrate the hosts, which got under the skin of Edwards
and he threw the ball at an opponent – resulting in an
eight week suspension. On that day Brownlie broke his leg
– Hibs losing their right-sided duo in one match.
This meant that the Hibs title challenge hit the skids,
eventually finishing in third place, but the side had already
written themselves into Hibernian folklore.
Edwards played at Hibernian until 1978, before transferring
to Arbroath, and he saw his playing days out in a two year
spell at the Gayfield club.
A born entertainer and a footballing genius, Edwards is
dubbed one of the greatest ever Scottish footballers never
to have been capped for Scotland. The captivating attacker
only has a solitary Scotland under-23 cap to his name;
gained in 1966. But he capped off his sole international
appearance with a goal.
A cup winner, a major part in orchestrating a fabulous and
famous derby victory, it is safe to say that Edwards will
forever be revered at Easter Road.

POLICY ON
U N A C C E P TA B L E
CONDUCT
PURPOSE
This Policy has been developed in line with an agreement by
clubs in the Scottish Premiership to take responsibility for the
actions of their own supporters at matches, both home and
away. Accordingly the SPFL introduced new rules regarding
Unacceptable Conduct at football matches with effect from 1st
August, 2007. The SFA has also adopted these rules for Scottish
Cup Matches.
Where a club is in breach of, or failure to fulfil the Rules relative
to Unacceptable Conduct, the SPFL may take certain action
against the Club. Examples of this include fines and deduction
of points.
POLICY
It is the policy of Hibernian Football Club (the Club) that
Unacceptable Conduct will not be tolerated. Any individuals
attending matches who are found to have engaged in
Unacceptable Conduct may have disciplinary action taken
against them. This may include removal of ticketing privileges,
removal of season tickets and bans from stadia for a specified
period/or other appropriate sanctions. Unacceptable Conduct
may also lead to criminal charges. Reference should be made to
the SPFL Rules regarding Unacceptable Conduct and Powers of
the Board and Commissions when dealing with this policy.
IMPLEMENTATION
The Home Club in any Official Match must ensure, so far as
reasonably practicable,
i) good order and security
ii) that policies and procedures have been adopted and are
implemented to prevent incidents of Unacceptable Conduct
iii) that any incidents of Unacceptable Conduct are effectively dealt with, at its Stadium on the occasion of an Official
Match.
Each Club must ensure, so far as reasonably practicable, that its
Players, officials, supporters, and any person exercising a function
for or connected with the Club do not engage in Unacceptable
Conduct on the occasion of any Official Match. Any failure by a
Club to discharge a requirement to which it is subject by virtue
of the above Rules shall constitute a breach of these Rules.
UNACCEPTABLE CONDUCT
Unacceptable Conduct is conduct which is violent or disorderly.
Violent conduct includes any actual, attempted, or threatened
physical violence against any person, or intentional damage to
property. Disorderly conduct includes;
· Conduct which stirs up or sustains, or is likely or is designed to stir up or sustain hatred or ill will against or towards individuals or groups of people because of:
· Colour, race, nationality, (including citizenship) or ethnic or national origin
· Membership, or presumed membership, of a religious group
or of a social cultural group with perceived religious affiliation
· Sexual orientation
· Transgender identity
· Disability
· Using threatening, abusive or insulting words or conduct
· Displaying writing or any other thing which is threatening, abusive or insulting
NON COMPLIANCE
The Club will take all reasonably practicable steps to deter and
prevent individuals from engaging in Unacceptable Conduct.
Where incidents of Unacceptable Conduct are reported or
detected, Stewards contracted by the Club, will in the first
instance be tasked to take all reasonably practicable steps
to properly deal with the situation and bring the matter to a
satisfactory conclusion. There may be occasions where it is
necessary to seek the assistance of Lothian and Borders Police to
deal with incidents of Unacceptable Conduct within or around
the Stadium. Where, for operational or other reasons
determined by the Chief Steward, Event Day Safety Officer or
Police Event Commander it is not possible or practicable to
directly intervene in an incident all reasonable steps will be
taken to detect individuals engaged in Unacceptable Conduct.
This may include:
· Identification of individuals by seat row and number and if possible supported by CCTV.
· Written information from Stewards or Police Officers.
· Disclosure to and exchange of information with other SPFL Clubs.
· Any information available from postmatch de-briefs.
· Any other source of information available.
Note: For the purposes of dealing with incidents of Unacceptable
Conduct, Season Ticket holders or purchasers of advanced tickets
will be deemed to be responsible for their allocated seat(s).
Where the incident of Unacceptable Conduct is not the subject
of a Police Enquiry, the Stadium & Facilities Manager or the Club
Secretary will, where required, carry out any further enquiry
necessary to bring the matter to a conclusion. This may involve
preparing reports and making recommendations to the Board on
any disciplinary action required to be taken against individuals
and/or making recommendations within the Club to reduce and
eradicate Unacceptable Conduct.
CONCLUSION
The introduction of this policy which is in line with SPFL
agreements places additional responsibility on the Club to
ensure individuals do not engage in Unacceptable Conduct
within Easter Road Stadium and whilst visiting other SPL Clubs.
The subject of Unacceptable Conduct is already under close
scrutiny and the Club seeks the co-operation and support of all
supporters in its efforts to reduce and eradicate such behaviour.

Manager Chris Roberts made a number of changes as
he utilised his full squad and one of those substitutes,
Lia Tweddie, grabbed a late double to complete the

She said: “It’s good to know that we can come back,

“For me, playing in the Champions League has definitely

DEVELOPMENT
S Q UA D
After a successful pre-season, which saw the Hibernian Development Squad
win four and draw one of their five matches, the side have yet to taste victory
in any of their opening four games.
Joe McBride, Hibernian U20 Development Coach, spoke about
the season so far and the development he has seen in his
young side this campaign.
Members of last year’s under-17 side have been promoted –
including Oli Shaw, Adam Watson and Callum Donaldson; who is
aged just 15.
McBride believes that it is the reason for the dip in form comes
from the fact that his young side are still adjusting to the rigours of
training on a full-time basis.
He said: “There has been new lads come in and I think we have had
that initial surge once they’ve come in after just leaving school and
becoming a full-time footballer. It’s all exciting and new, but then
comes the reality of it that it is difficult training full-time.
28
“They take a little dip physically with the time they are now
spending on the pitch. I’ve been delighted with the ones that have
come in and they’ve all integrated well and worked really hard and
most of them have played quite a bit
“There has been a little dip lately, they’re in here every day and in
the 20’s games, so that can happen to the young ones when they
come in. I have absolutely no doubt that they will come again and
push on. You just expect that sometimes after their high tails off
a wee bit.”
After coming close to achieving victory over Falkirk, with the side
reduced to nine men due to injuries to Jordan Sinclair and trialist
Michael Liddle, a free-kick deep into stoppage time denied Hibs an
opening game win.
Since then the side have lost every game, but McBride is keen to
look at the positives his side have displayed, despite admitting his
disappointment at 4-2 defeat against Partick Thistle.
He said: “There’s no lack of positivity around here with the lads
when they’re training. You’ve got to deal with results, but results
are much more important when they are in the first-team, and
hopefully when they progress to the first-team they need to know
how to deal with that.
“The only game I have been really disappointed in was Partick
Thistle, because we lost the goals in quick succession and it was
just a disappointing result all round.”
McBride has had to contend with losing two of his regular starters,
and promising aspects, Conner Duthie and Lewis Allan, as they are
out on loan at Spartans and Forfar Athletic respectively.
Both are getting on well and the benefits of the loan for Allan are
already plain to see in training, according to his coach.
McBride said: “Lewis is enjoying his spell at Forfar and I’m sure it’ll
do him the world of good playing against men every week and
playing in a real competitive league.
“He certainly looks stronger and sharper when he is back training
here. That is only going to be of benefit for himself.”

HIBERNIAN
V ST MIRREN
A look back at a classic encounter between the two sides
Hibernian 4-2 St Mirren
With Hibernian sitting in third place in the early
stages of February they knew a win against
eleventh placed St Mirren would allow them
to leap frog Rangers into second place on the
weekend of February 10th 2001.
Hibernian in the McLeish era was blessed with names
that to this day still bring a smile to a Hibs fans face
just through the memories of magical moments. It was
no surprise to see the team doing so well in the league.
Going into the game in February, Hibernian may have
been 11 points off the league leaders Celtic. But they
were also an astonishing 15 points ahead of the closest
team behind them, which was Kilmarnock in 4th.
After 17 minutes a pass back was awarded and up
stepped Franck Sauzee who waited for the ball to be
rolled into his path before curling it into the net.
The script had a twist, Gary Smith gave away a penalty
that was converted just before half-time. Hibernian
found themselves behind not long after the start of the
second half through a deflected goal off John O’Neil,
and the hopes of finishing the day in second place
were beginning to fade.
But David Zitelli turned the game on its head all in
the space of two minutes. First the French forward
was played into the box by Russell Latapy, then using
his strength to hold off a defender, he tucked the ball
beyond the St Mirren keeper to equalise.
Two minutes later and Hibernian were back in the
lead, Zitelli again pouncing on an error from St Mirren
defender Paul Rudden who wanted too much time on
the ball on the edge of his box. The Frenchman didn’t
need a second invitation to snatch the ball before
slotting home.
Latapy though was obviously unamused with only
an assist on the day and wanted his name on the
scoresheet too. After initially losing the ball, the
Trinidad and Tobago internationalist was determined to
win the ball back. Once that was done he then arrowed
a low and powerful shot into the bottom far corner of
the goal to make it 4-2 and seal the three points.
