In actual fact, if I recall correctly, the Jambos also had their own weekly show on Sky.
Might even have been imaginatively called ‘The Hearts Club’, not that I ever watched it!!

Pretty sure the series of shows only lasted for that season, possibly because we wouldn’t have ‘featured’ in the Sky contract the following season but more likely because of viewing figures not being good or it was only meant to last for one season.

I remember Chris Jackson being involved (I don't think he was very articulate).

LOL That was my iirc disclaimer. :wink:

Now you’ve mentioned that, you could well be right. There was definitely a satellite channel that had both a Hibs and Hearts show. I’ve just assumed it was this Hibs Club show on Sky.

Like Tom English, he's another one who doesn't let on who his team is. Seems like a Jambo sympathiser to me.

Peter Martin is a Celtic fan and doesn’t hide the fact. Always thought Jim White was a confirmed Hun.

Didn't know that. He was saying today he's pals with a lot of the Hearts '86 team and I've heard him mention being pals with other ex-players of theirs. He's certainly been pushing the save Hearts agenda a lot for the last month or so.

There was an interview with Jim White in a Hibs programme, sometime in the 1990s I think, where he said he had been a student or worked in Edinburgh during the 1970s and talked about how he used to watch the great Hibs team of that era.

They filmed from a studio in the South Stand. When the Main Stand was demolished the club moved over there and into the office space. Komfort Systems funded this by the way and had their first showroom in there too before occupying part of the new fit out in the West.
