    Real Madrid green kits

    What is the history of Real Madrid regularly having a green away or third kit?

    Is it just a colour that caught on?

    Rumour has it that they were in awe of our kit under the lights at Easter Road back in the 60s when we gave them a footballing lesson in our 2-0 win 😉

    My son has had the Real Madrid green top for a few years it looks smart

    We can also say that we were first to wear the white because on the day Hibernian were formed 6th August 1875 Father Hannan was elected Manager and Life President of the club. Father Hannan in turn handed over a set of strips white with green trimming and a harp on the breast.

    Michael Whelahan was then elected to be first captain of Hibernian Football Club

    Real Madrid were formed in 1902 a very good year

    For those of you who are interested in the whole Real Madrid/Barcelona el Classico thing I'd recommend Sid Lowe's book "Fear and Loathing in la Liga". It's very good and blows the lid off the lazy cliches that surround football's most fierce rivalty (at least fiercer than Falkirk v Dunfermline).
