Angel eyes Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Is your home dedicated to Hearts and Hearts only or are there non-believers under the same roof? Can you wallow in self pity on your own after Hearts get beat do you dread going home knowing fine well there’s someone there waiting ready to wind you up! Is it all good banter or does it at times just get beyond a joke? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homme Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 My stepdaughter and myself are massive Jambos. The wee man is only 3 so a bit young to get it, but he will sing the hearts song happily! The Mrs is a lapsed rangers fan. Which is really disappointing as she is related to our very own Tommy Walker. She's happy to see us happy though, if that makes sense.

Maple Leaf Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 I've never lived in a house where there was anyone who wasn't a Hearts supporter. And I've reached that stage in my life where I can safely say, and never will! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Future's Maroon Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 (edited) My whole family are Hibs fans, my first football game was a Hibs game. I am the only Jambo still alive, it’s great. Derby Day is amazing!! Its also banter, and that is as far as it ever goes, it’s a shame some other teams fans can’t behave in that manner?

Morgan Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Closest I’ve had, is a neighbour (really nice bloke who was a Hibby) that tried to ‘influence’ me in the Hibs direction (failed) when I was a wee boy. Other than that, no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taffin Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Girlfriend is an Arsenal fan so she's not particularly interested in how Hearts get on. She's been to a couple of games and knows the score with Hibs and the OF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paris 84 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Are we all of as sudden (as Hearts fans) part of some kind of ‘’arian’ nation’? Time to get a ****in’ grip. Most of us live in Edinburgh, and there’s two main football teams in Edinburgh, live with it. My Dad and my eldest brother are both Hibbies. My other brother and me (and 100% of our sons and daughter) are Hearts fans. Are we in some way inferior to the pure-bloods among us?

Unknown user Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Mrs. S grew up hun, but as a catholic she grew more and more detached and disgusted with the whole thing as the years went by. Needless to say I've been on hand, good partner that I am, and took her to Hearts Celtic at the start of the season. We won, she enjoyed it, but she wouldn't describe herself as a jambo. I'm working on it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamhammer Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Mrs and Bairn both Jambos. Same with extended family. Hobos not tolerated. Wife’s old man, sadly no longer with us was Rangers but otherwise maroon. Cant imagine being married to a Hibs fan.

The_razors_edge Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 All Hearts under my roof. Close family on both sides all Hearts. My kids haven’t been given a choice. 2 oldest both had ST’s for the first time last season and went to cup final. Safe to say there’s no turning back for them now.

Haken Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 My Mrs and two daughtrers aren't that interested. I'd say they have Hearts sympathies. My wee daughter is probably the most interested - she bought herself a Hearts top this season and has a few of the players' signatures, but she's just not interested in going to games. Probably a good thing as she'd see a different side of her old man. They all adhere to the family motto 'We Don't Do Green'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalstonjambo Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Wife is an Aston Villa fan. Good for her, but my kids won't be. My 3 year old likes walking round singing the Hearts are having a party and the hibs are in their beds which raises a tut from my wife almost every time. Hard to hear her over me laughing though. Given we live in London my wife has asked me a few times what I will do if the kids get into football and want to go and see a local team. My response is always the same. 'Well they can find someone else to take them as I'll be at Hearts'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RudiHMFC Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Most of my family are rangers fans, my brother in law is a Hibs fan but we get on well, we just don't talk too much about the rivalry although we both love football we just keep that to one side.

My Mrs isn't really into football, but due to me is Hearts-ish. Hates Hibs though! May be linked to a previous boyfriend... Her old man is Rangers, due to his dad being from the Weege. Refreshingly not into the "Wearrapeepil" mentality. In his 80's and a wee bit mutton, so trying to explain the liquidation, you were not relegated line can be hard.

Probably the other way about in my hoose, but then that's because she thinks beating Hearts is a scalp, whereas I really expect us to be beating Aberdeen. No defeats in the relegation season for example, particularly pleasing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Kintner Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Not quite a mixed household but a mixed family. My dad is a lifelong Celtic fan and was there at every game in 1966/67. He likes to see Hearts do well and he’s been to a couple of games with me. In return I took him on the stadium tour of Parkhead which was quite interesting. Doesn’t cause any friction between us at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
