were one of several teams formed in the late 19th century to represent, or raise funds for, the local Irish immigrant communities in Scotland;[2] the main survivors of these early outfits are the major clubs Celtic F.C.

[4] Their only attempt at the Glasgow version was the following season, 1888–89, where they were drawn against the leading club of the era, Queen's Park, in the second round and went down 4-0 at home.

[9] After finishing bottom of the league in 1904 they were not re-elected (Clydebank Juniors were picked instead) and although the number of teams was increased for the next season, Hibs were overlooked again in favour of emerging neighbours Cambuslang Rangers (as well as Shettleston).

[10] Cambuslang Hibs played for one season in the second division of the GJL, but that was then disbanded and they moved with the other rejected teams to the Glasgow District League.

[11] Hibs also failed to recreate their 1896 success in the Scottish Junior Cup, their best attempt being in 1900 when they reached the semi-finals only to be beaten by Kilmarnock's Rugby XI club.

[15] Cambuslang Hibernian played at Westburn Park, situated to the north of the railway lines and main road through the town, which is now occupied by housing in the Circuit neighbourhood.
