‘There Is A Bonny Fitba Team’ is the story of one fan’s journey as he follows Hibernian FC through the highs and lows of fifty years on the Hibee highway. The story starts in April 1958 when eleven-year-old Ted Brack left Hampden in tears after Hibs had lost the Scottish Cup Final. Between that day and watching Hibs win the CIS Cup nearly fifty years later, Ted Brack has been to over 1, 000 games and has dedicated a major part of his life to the club. During that time he got to know many of the club’s legendary players, its officials and supporters and was a regular contributor to the Hibs fanzine. ‘There Is A Bonny Fitba Team’ is a funny, affectionate and honest account of the trials and tribulations of a devoted Hibs fan as well as a history of the club over the last fifty years and a must-read book for all the fans who have lived through good times and bad with Hibernian FC.
