Looks like "Faither" may be in goals for Hibs in that pic? :ponder:
That question's already met with a few better-qualified-than-my-responses, but aye,
it does look like Faither's in goal for the soup-taking Leith junkies.

Gil Heron

Gil Heron was born in Kingston, Jamaica. He had been plying his trade with Detroit Corinthians when noticed by Glasgow Celtic on their 1951 US Tour. (The prolific Heron has been top scorer for the Detroit Wolverines in North American Soccer League in 1946.) He was invited to Scotland to take part in a trial at Celtic Park on August 4, 1951. He scored two goals.

Celtic signed him and he made his debut on August 18, 1951 in a League Cup tie against Morton at Celtic Park. He scored once in a 2-0 victory.

He played one season at Celtic, making five appearances and scoring two goals before lower division Lanark.

His son Gil Scott Heron when interviewed by the Times’ Gerry Hassan said, “My dad always looks for the Celtic results,” noting the special place the Scots have “music and football”.

During his year at Celtic, he was best known for what one contemporary described as “camera-shutter speed”. Off the park, he played cricket for Poloc and Ferguslie and stayed in a hotel in the centre of Glasgow.

Sean Fallon, a team-mate, remembers him as a man about town who loved his music — spent a lot of time after training in the music section at Lewis’s department store, listening to the latest American imports.

Gil Heron passed away at the age of 87 in November 2008 in Detroit, Michigan.
