What a second half we had there, it had everything didn’t it?
Yes Jeff it was brilliant, we had a red card, 3 goals one of which was a really soft penalty. We have a lot to discuss.
We certainly do Pat but I’d just like to start off by saying a massive congratulations to Hibs and Andi Horne on winning the Scottish Cup.

Hearts almost fought back near the end of the match there did you think they might sneak another goal?
To be honest I didn’t Jeff, they were lucky to be awarded the penalty which was really really soft and Hibs were just far superior today. They were under no threat at all.
Being a Hibs fan I have to disagree my heart was in my mouth all I could think was “not again” but what an end to an excellent match and an excellent season, I’m delighted.

The sending off was a definite wasn’t it Pat?
Yeah it was a horrible tackle and I’m glad McGivern wasn’t injured and was able to carry on.
It was truly disgusting Jeff the lad should be ashamed and I hope he apologised at the end.

Truly amazing scenes here at the end of the match given you are an ex-Hearts captain, does the Hibs anthem give you goose bumps when it’s sung like that?, even the camera mans hairs were standing up as were mine.
I have to admit I used to hate that song as a Hearts player but hearing it sung with the passion and emotion that the Hibs fans sang it today, it’s something that’ll live with me forever it was truly something special.

Pat I can see your itching to go down and congratulate Andi and his team and you’ll be glad to hear that’s all we’ve got time for. What a game, what an atmosphere, what a day on behalf of us all its goodbye for now.

League Table


Player of the Month
Paul Cairney: Cairney has been in outstanding form this month contributing 4 goals in 4 games. The winger was close to being left out of my squad a few months ago but managed to force his way back into my plans and is now one of my key players.


Manager Comments
May was magnificent, not only did we win all 4 games, we kept our 100% Edinburgh Derby Record and won my first major trophy as Hibernian Manager. I also got offered a new contract by the board which I accepted and will stay on at the club until at least May 2016. I can’t wait to get the 2014/15 season started already.

Was a shock for me when I checked it they beat Porto in the final as well, what a game that would be in real life lol. Yeah I know spurs winning a trophy is a bit unrealisitc as well :P.

2 points was hard to take but I'll catch them next season the gutting thing is in the last game I played them they scored an 87th minute equaliser, I would have won by a point if they never.
A good season mate!
Hopefully next season will be your year :)

Cheers mate, I done not to bad for a team that was predicted to finish 8th lol. I hope so, Rangers will probably be in the premiership the season after and it will be a lot tougher to win.
Great story so far. I have always had respect for Hibs and their fans. The class of Edinburgh

Unlucky mate, so close to doing it :)
You were so unlucky to have been pipped to the league title. I am sure with a bit of strengthening that you could finally knock Celtic off their perch!

I know mate, hopefully I can keep up the good form
