I will strip naked in Edinburgh if we win Scottish Cup - Hibernian's O'Connor

Hibernian striker Garry O'Connor suggests he will go naked down Edinburgh's main street if the club wins the Scottish Cup next month.

Hibs made it through to an all-Edinburgh final, where they will meet rivals Heart of Midlothian, aft their 2-1 win over Aberdeen on Saturday and goalscoring hero O'Connor is excited about heading back to Hampden Park for the May 19 showdown.

"I'll get involved in anything, as long as we get our hands on that trophy. I'll walk down Princes Street naked if we win it, I'll tell you that!" he said.

"I'm over the moon. It's great Hibs will be back at Hampden next month."

He added: "I love this club, Hibs are my club, it's fantastic.

"I was just so emotional and to score at Hampden, the national stadium, was just brilliant.

"The dressing room was absolutely buzzing. The gaffer's come in and got the boys up and playing.

"We can go and win the Cup, we believe we can do it.

"Hopefully, we can bring it back to Edinburgh."
