Tony Hibbert |
In addition, Hibbert has never scored in a competitive game during his professional career, and in December 2009, when Lloyd Doyley scored for Watford, he became the current player with the longest run of games without scoring. Alongside his commitment to the club, the goal drought has contributed to his cult hero status among Everton FC fans, to the extent that a banner reading "If Hibbert Scores, We Riot" was displayed at the 2009 English FA Cup semi-final. He eventually scored an indirect freekick goal in his Testimonial Game against AEK Athens of Greece at Goodison Park on August 8, 2012.
