History

The club was founded in August 1876 by members of the St Pas Roman Catholic Church based on the Cowgate. The club's principal founders were Canon Edward Joseph Hannan, and the head of the local Catholic Young Men's Association, Michael Whelahan, who became the first clubs captain. The meeting which established the club took place at the St. Mary's Street Hall, which can still be seen today. The team originally played, like all other teams of the time, on the Meadows, a park towards the south of Edinburgh's Old Town. The club moved to Leith in 1880, to a purpose built ground named Hibernian Park, which stood where Bothwell Street now stands today. The club moved to its present ground at Easter Road in 1891, just a stone's throw away from their first home.

Hibs were the first least club in Scotland formed by members of the IrelandIrish Catholic population of the time. The club's name reflects its Irish roots (Hibernia is the Latin name for Ireland). A strict translation of the name Hibernian F.C. would be "Irishmen Football Club." As the first such team, their example led to the creation of Dundee Hibernian (now Dundee United) and Celtic, who when they were formed were nearly called "Glasgow Hibernian". The club is seen as being much less of a Catholic institution now than it was in the past, and today geographical association rather than religion is the primary reason that fans support the team (Hibernian being the club for East Edinburgh).Alexander W

With the League title out of depth because of rubbishness, they did eventually finish a very creditable third behind Champions Cheltic and runners up Rhangers, with Hibernians entering in 1899 with high hopes of a Scottish Cup win. They began their campaign with a tough 9-2 away to East Stirlingshire only to face a longish delay for their next opponents Raith Rovers who progressed following a successful protest. The delay caused no problems however and the greens stormed to a fine 6-1 win at Easter Road.

Re: Hibs

maybe its down to the fact that in 1891 hibernian as a club actually folded only to be re-formed later that year
