Hibs will face Falkirk in the William Hill Scottish Cup semi-final at Hampden Park on Saturday 18 April.
The game will kick off at 12.45pm and will be shown live on both Sky TV and BBC.
The other semi-final will take place on Sunday 19 April between Inverness Caledonian Thistle and Celtic who beat Dundee United 4-0 in last night’s replay.
Should Hibs reach the final which will take place on 30 May, there will be a familiar face in the opposition dugout. Former manager and captain John Hughes is the boss at Inverness, whilst John Collins who managed Hibs to their last silverware is the assistant manager at Parkhead.
Three former Hibs’ players, Leigh Griffiths, Anthony Stokes and Scott Brown are likely to start should Celtic win their semi-final.
John graduated from Telford College in 2010 with an HNC in Practical Journalism and since then he worked for the North Edinburgh News, The Southern Reporter, the Irish News Review and The Edinburgh Reporter. In addition he has been published in the Edinburgh Evening News and the Hibernian FC Programme.
