red Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Edinburgh Derby coming in at No.20. Some crazy fixtures in there! Wonder if any are as one sided over the years http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/picturegalleries/11484651/The-20-biggest-rivalries-in-world-football-ranked.html?image=3#PhotoSwipe1516531597950 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantjambo Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 The first Edinburgh derby was on Christmas Day 1875 and we won 1-0. We even ruined Christmas Day for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantjambo Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Just had a wee peek at London hearts and I’m actually surprised that Hibs definitely had the upper hand in those early days. Up until 14th April 1888 we had played 51 times with Hibs winning 27 of them and us winning only 11. We then went on a 13 game unbeaten run.

That was the original Hibs who were attracting players and fans from all over Scotland. It's no wonder they had the upper hand. Something happened in 1888 which changed this.
