Hibernian Football Club
EDM number 1078 in 1989-90, proposed by Ron Brown on 06/06/1990.
That this House is opposed to the takeover bid for Hibernian Football Club by Heart of Midlothian Football Club; believes that the share manipulation and other corrupt practices should be investigated by the Scottish law officers; urges both sets of fans to unite against big business who wish to dominate the working-class game of football in the interest of profit; and reaffirms the view that Leith and Edinburgh have the right to have two separate and distinct clubs within the framework of the Scottish League.
This motion has been signed by a total of 32 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
