Published to mark the 150th anniversary of the birth of Hibernian Football Club, founded in August 1875 and playing the team’s first ever match on Christmas day that year. This is an eclectic, enchanting and beautifully crafted miscellany charting the highs, lows and assorted misadventures of a beloved Edinburgh sporting institution.
Celebrate 150 years of Hibs.
Charting the highs, lows and many misadventures of Hibernian FC, and featuring countless characters, from George Best to John McGinn via the Famous Five and the side that became world champions, this is the ultimate celebration of the beloved Edinburgh sporting institution. It sweeps from the founding of the club in 1875 to the triumphs and tribulations of the 21st century.
In 150 bitesize helpings, the story of Hibs is served up in delicious fashion. Who could forget the pass of the millennium or the swoon-inducing swagger of sixties heartthrob Peter Marinello? And who wouldn’t recoil at the memory of the wine bar empire entwined in the club’s darkest hour? Written by a lifelong Hibee, Hibs at 150 bridges the generations and peels back the layers of a century and half of Hibsteria.
