A real Hibs legend made his final appearance for hibs, and we defeated Motherwell 4-0 two years ago. Three years back and we drew 1-1 with Kilmarnock at ER when Bobby Williamson made his infamous "if you want entertainment, go to the cinema" quote
Back in 1958, Lawrie Reilly made his final appearance in a hibs jersey, on a Monday in a game against Rangers. He was only 29, had made 38 appearances for Scotland (a record that perhaps won't be beaten in my lifetime) and scored 22 goals. He also managed to score five goals at Wembley.
Two years ago, Hibs crushed Motherwell 4-0. The team was: Caig, Orman, Smith, Caldwell, Hilland (Allan Dempsie, 66 ), Townsley (Reid, 73 ), Wiss, O'Neil, Arpinon (Nicol, 78 ), O'Connor, Brewster. Kevin Nicol made his Hibs debut, whilst the goalscorers where Townsley, Arpinon and Garry O' Connor (2). The attendance was 7701
A year previous we drew with Kilmarnock, as managed then by Bobby Williamson. The team was: Colgan, Sauzee, Lovell (Lehmann, 81 ), Smith, Jack, Fenwick, Murray, O'Neil, Arpinon, Libbra (Zitelli, 84 ), McManus (Paatelainen, 64 ). The crowd was 8224 (the main stand was being redevopled at the time), and Marc Libbra scored for Hibs.
