Bleach blond hair, questionable clobber and a swagger to rival Liam Gallagher. Seeing Harry McKirdy walk in the door at Hibs last week was like looking in the mirror 20 years ago.
Talk about a big entrance. This guy was making an impression before he’d even kicked a ball with his look-at-me arrival in Leith. And I for one love it! Hibs are needing that bit of arrogance, confidence, cockiness, whatever you want to call it. Something tells me McKirdy isn’t a shrinking violet. I was the same.
People might think that Derek Riordan and Garry O’Connor were flash back in the day. They were actually really shy. I was the one that craved the limelight more than anyone at Easter Road. I loved scoring goals and being in the paper. As long as you can back it up there’s not a problem and I reckon McKirdy will back it up.
