History of Hibs (through a ***** eyes)

1875 - Founded by members of St Patrick's Roman Catholic Church, who immediately set about inventing the colour green. Beginning a tradition that would last for 132 years, Hibs lose the first Edinburgh derby 1-0. A reporter at the game describes Hibs performance as "the greatest exhibition of footballing flair ever seen".

1885 - Hibernians take an 18 month break from playing "to allow the world to marvel at our flair", and return under the name of Hibernian.

1887 - Hibs win Scottish Cup. "Many more to come" says the captain.

1888 - Celtic Football Club founded. Players, staff, fans, the Scottish Cup and other Easter Road furnishings depart en masse but plans to relocate Easter Road itself to the east end of Glasgow are shelved as the estimated 4p cost "wouldn't look great on the balance sheet".

1896 - Hibs lose only Cup final held outside Glasgow, 3-1 to Edinburgh rivals Hearts. A near riot is only just dispersed by police, with Hibs fans angry at Hearts blatant goalscoring tactics. ITS NOT FLAIR screams the headline in the Evening News.

1900 - Hibs introduce football to a very industrial Brazil, who's government immediately responds by recolouring the national flag. Its previous greyscale version is replaced by a predominantly green flag in homage to Hibs.

1902 - A second Scottish Cup win. "I can't believe we've had to wait 15 years to win the Scottish Cup again" says one Hibs fan. Princess Street is packed with nearly 200 people for Hibs open top horse and cart parade.

1914 - Defeated in Scottish Cup final.

1923 - Defeated in Scottish Cup final.

1924 - Defeated in Scottish Cup final.

1947 - Defeated in Scottish Cup final.

1952 - Win league championship for the second year running. "The only thing that could top this would be if Hearts were to lose the title on the last day of the season and it had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with us!" declares one Hibs fan.

1955 - Hibs invent floodlights, and are invited to play in the inaugural European Cup despite finishing fifth. UEFA states Hibs invitation is because "they would have won the league had the other teams not been bigger and stronger than them".

1958 - Defeated in Scottish Cup final.

1970 - A mesmerising Brazil side wins the World Cup, and players immediately pay tribute to Hibs. "I was thinking of Hibs when Pele was conceived" claims Pele's mum.

1972 - Defeated in Scottish Cup final by record 6-1 margin. The Evening News says the match is a "travesty for flair all over the world". All is forgotten with Hibs maiden League Cup win later in the year. "Thats the one we really wanted to win" says manager Jobby Turnbull.

1979 - Defeated in Scottish Cup final.

1990 - In the ultimate act of pity, Hearts attempt to buy Hibs. Tom Farmer steps in to save the club with fans rejoicing after he promises to make them "the most financially secure club in the universe".

1991 - Hibs fans boycott their League Cup win over Dunfermline, in protest at the negative tactics employed by Alex Miller.

1996 - Alex Miller is sacked, marking the end of the ONLY period in the club's history when the team has not played with the greatest attention to flair.

1998 - In amongst a particularly physical Premier Division lineup, Hibs are understandably relegated. "They were bigger than us" says sacked manager Duff Jimmy.

1999 - Attendances soar at Easter Road as Hibs romp to the First Division championship, seeing off the likes of Stranraer and Hamilton along the way.

2001 - Defeated in Scottish Cup final.

2003 - At a sunny Hampden Park 35 000 Hibs fans enjoy a feast of flair football as Hibs get beaten 2-0 in the League Cup Final by world superpower Livingston FC. 25 000 Hibs fans are abducted by aliens on their way home.

2005 - Hibs launch their new club motto: "We'll develop youth so the Old Firm don't have to".

2006 - In order to save face, some Hibs fans disguise themselves as seats for their Scottish Cup semi-final with rivals Hearts. Throughout the course of the game more and more fans disguise themselves as seats as Hibs embarass themselves by getting hammered 4-0. "I consider this a moral victory, as we lost with a great amount of flair" says manager Tony Monkey.

2007 - Reports that Hibs might smash their wage structure by paying Jessie Jones £50 a week are strongly denied by the board. Topless posters of John Collins sell out within 15 minutes of going on sale at Easter Road. "With a cash injection like this we can now afford to buy a barn for the players to train in" says Rod Petrie

History of Hearts

Started of as wanks. 133 years followed of the same. Ended as wanks.

Short and to the point.

Although there is no written proof said wanks were established in 1874.

I tend to agree apart from the reference to Turnbull - no need

Re: History of Hibs (through a ***** eyes)

There was a thing on the Londonhertz site a while back that was similar to this except that it went 100 years into the future too. Quite funny for a Gunt, I thought.

Sorry, but I actually found it quite funny. Sometimes you just have to take things at face value, and that was a wee bit amusing.

Quite funny really. especially the bit about hibs fans disguising themselves as seats.

Still don't understand why there was so many empty seats that day.

Re: History of Hibs (through a ***** eyes)

The sad thing is some weirdo had such a hatred of Hibs that he used a few hours of his wanking time to research the history of Hibs then then add his own slant. At least if he is on the web taking the piss out of us he is not hanging around his local primary school.

Re: History of Hibs (through a ***** eyes)

There was me thinking the 2003 league cup final was an old firm game, 3-2 to the hun. I must have been hallucinating. He's clearly done his homework. we were eliminated by the huns at easter road .

how original. Still, anything that diverts attention from the tynecastle pantomime must be welcome to them.

two for the history of hearts.

1917. The british army, made up exclusively of hearts fans and players, single handedly wins the war on the western front.


1689/1690. section N and the CSF successfully defend Derry against James II and VII before helping out in the first ever old firm game at the Boyne.

You missed out Vlad winning the cold war single handed in his one man submarine!

Some of it is funny though, but surprises me why he put in about Hibs winning the first division with their relationship with the 1st div in the 80's
