    Steve Cowan is UP for GOALS & GLORY!


    Steve Cowan was cool, he had a swagger and confidence that goal scorers need. As a Hibs Kid, I walked round the Easter Road pitch with him on the Open Day after watching the squad train, I don't think any other kids got to speak to him. He was a hero!


    I was delighted when he gave me some of his time for the pod, I loved it, I hope you enjoy listening.

    Keith Houchen is UP for GOALS & GLORY!


    He scored THAT goal! And he arrived to play for my team! The FA Cup was a BIG deal when I was a kid. We all dreamed of scoring a Worldie in the Wembley sunshine, he did it for real.


    He played in Europe for Hibs and was an absolute giant! I loved watching him.


    It was a joy to speak to him, it could have lasted for hours! I hope you enjoy listening.

  • Mickey Weir is UP for Goals & Glory [Ep 3]
    Dec 3 2022

    He's here! He's there! 


    Mickey Weir was dynamite and everything I loved about Hibs, passionate, quick, skillful and played with a smile. He was wee and that just made him even cooler. 

    He was my big brother's favourite, he was a lot of people's favourite!


    I was delighted when he agreed to be on the pod and could have spoken to him for hours. I hope he'll come back for part 2!


    I loved it, I hope you enjoy listening!

  • Joe Tortolano is UP for GOALS & GLORY! [Ep 2]
    Dec 3 2022

    A Hibby who will forever be in Hibs Folklore, from Stirling to Easter Road to Sunset Beach...


    The Gordon Rae testimonial is a happy memory from my childhood! Joe T is constantly reminded of it and although Gordon Strachan has forgiven him, not sure Sir Alex has!


    I loved it the chat, a very funny, humble man who was a joy to chat to. I hope you enjoy listening.

  • Colin Leslie is UP for Goals & Glory [Ep 1]
    Nov 25 2022

    I loved being at Easter Road as a kid in the 80s. I was spoilt, I saw European Football and a great crop of youngsters playing for the shirt, I pretended to be Mickey Weir & JC, I was a Hibs Kid and got autographs that I still I have now.


    Reading Bestie to Beastie to Belgium brought back many happy memories and I couldnt wait to get a chat with the author and daft Hibby Colin Leslie.


    It was amazing to hear about the book and some of the characters we both hold up as heroes.


    I hope you enjoy listening as much I did recording.


    Colin inspired the Goals & Glory podcast and I for that I want to say...

    'THANK YOU'
