Your six year old sleeps in your bed? Not sure what colour your laces should be! ;-)

Always like to point this one out, Jonny. Hibs never played any friendlies in Brazil. All three games were played for the World Club Championship. :cb

Same when it's described as a "tour" - all three games being played in the Maracana. :rolleyes:

Friendlies in Ireland too.

Do England and Wales count as foreign countries?

Have we played in Wales?

Or Norn Ireland, for that matter?

Deffo played in Belfast.

Russells T&T Tour springs to mind too, dear knows where we played though.

South Morocco :wink:

Good spot. I missed that but can confirm it is wrong as we've never played them

We also played in Nigeria one summer way back, not against Nigerian sides IIRC but I can't remember who provided the opposition. And another summer in the States or Canada in a sort of summer league competition.

And then there was the famous Canadian tour when Willie Hamilton played in a 15-1 against some local amateurs after being out on the tiles all night; legend has it he was so hungover he didn't leave the centre circle but scored 7 goals.

Swansea Town in 1960 or 61.

In the North of Ireland a few times and fairly recently with a Zemmama winner against Glentoran in Belfast. Great trip once you were out of the East of it.....

Haiti under Bertie Auld. There used to be an article what I wrote on this site on the game we played there. A hacking match which saw Arthur Duncan involved in a stramash. Canny find it though.
