Heart of Midlothian, Hibernian 'of Edinburgh'?
Seen as Meadowbank thistle moved oot and we are the only edinburgh team left. Should we add the 'of Edinburgh' bit in? or make it Edinburgh Hibs like Glasgow Celtic/ Glasgow Rangers/ Lithuania Hearts?

Re: Heart of Midlothian, Hibernian 'of Edinburgh'?
There was a pictorial history of Hibs out a few years ago and if you look at some of the cup medals from the Famous 5 era theyre inscribed Edinburgh Hibernian. The club badge on those medals is the old Embra coat of arms.
Dont want to start a heritage debate but might be that in the 50s, altho the harp crest was still displayed above the stadium entrance , club administrators were trying to stress our Edinburghness ? Maybe a really old stoat can explain further. BTW its Hibernian for me , nothing else required To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 5 or greater.

The county of Midlothian was known, officially, as the County of Edinburgh until 1921, and was sometimes called Edinburghshire during the 19th century. Traces of this can be found in the name of the Heart of Midlothian mosaic on the Royal Mile, and Heart of Midlothian F.C., both of which are based firmly within the city boundaries, and are no longer part of Midlothian at all. Wikipedia Head out towards ikea and before you make the turn off for costco/sainsburys you will see a sign saying welcome to midlothian!

The former name of Midlothian was Edinburghshire. Before 1975 it stretched from Stow to Leith Docks. Anyway us Leithers don't regard ourselves as Edinburghers, I dont anyway. |
