Sunshine on Leith, I loved this song before I knew it was adopted as a Hibs anthem, never fails to draw a tear or two. Can you imagine our players singing along to a club anthem, after winning a trophy.

If we're extending this beyond the English league, then "Flower of Scotland" wins hands down.

I knew nothing of this song's link to Hibs (not a surprise , not going to watch many if any games involving Hibs) but that clip from the Scottish cup final sure is something special. Every time I watch it or similar it raises the hairs on my arms and legs.Originally Posted by Magpies1959
Great stuff.
Would love to have a Liverpool or Man United down the lane as they have some great well known songs linked to each club and usually in very good voice.
I want us to play fringe in cup matches and concentrate on the league but we are well overdue a big boy visit at the Lane.

Have to agree with this. I've never seen such a passionate rendition of a club anthem to match this one when Hibs won the Scottish Cup in 2016.
It was an outpouring of 114 years of pure emotion. Hibs were 2-1 down with 10 minutes to go but won it. I think there was crowd trouble after the game and the video was shot 30 minutes after it finished, but it seemed not a single Hibs fan had left the ground. A bit like our win at Wembley, it made all the years of hurt worthwhile.
I first became aware of this after reading a few Irvine Welsh books. Some of them give a fantastic insight into football rivalry, often very violent. One of them even mentions footy messageboards!
