Current Comments
1 comments so far (post your own)John Collins, aka "Jocky", joined the club in 1984. A cultured left-sided midfielder, possessing great technical ability, he was one of the best Hibs players of the post-war era. Also an incredibly fit athlete which enabled him to enjoy a lengthy career in the game.
He also played for Monaco, Everton and Fulham.
