Table Combined Trophy Success For Decades :Hearts And Hibs

Table Combined Trophy Success For Decades :Hearts And Hibs.  

Correct at September 2021. 


I have listed a table for each decade of combined trophy and runners-up spots for Hearts and Hibs. Hearts and Hibs are the two biggest sides from Edinburgh, in terms of soccer. 

Hearts are Heart of Midlothian. Hibs are Hibernian. 

On the table is the number of trophies and runners-up spots that Heart of Midlothian have had in top tier trophies. I have included Scottish top tier titles, Scottish FA Cups, Scottish League Cups, and European trophies. 


Combined Hearts And Hibs Trophy Wins and Runners-Up Spots By Decades. 


Decades.    Wins.      Runners-up.

1870s          0.               0. 

1880s          1.               0.

1890s          4                4.

1900s          4.               4.

1910s          0.               2.

1920s          0.               2.

1930s          0.               1. 

1940s          1.               2.

1950s          7.               6.

1960s          2.               4.

1970s          1.               6.

1980s          0.               4.

1990s          2.               4. 

2000s          2.               3.

2010s          2.               5.

2020s          0.               2.


So the most successful decade for the combination of Hearts and Hibs was the 1950s, when together they won 7 trophies and were runners-up in six trophies.


Another good era was the 1890s when the Hearts and Hibs combination won 4 trophies and were runners-up in 4 trophies. Although it should be noted that added to this could be St Bernard's of Edinburgh who won the Scottish Cup in the 1890s. But I did not include them on the table as this is about Hearts and Hibs combined. 

Also in the 1900s was another successful decade for Einburgh. Where the combination of Hearts and Hibs won 4 trophies and were runners-up in four trophies. 

The worst decade for trophy success was the 1870s where neither team won or were runners-up in the Scottish Cup. 

The 1930s was a poor decade for trophy success. With Hearts and Hibs between them, managing one runners-up spot, and n top tier trophies.
