Founded: 1903
Nickname: The Dons
Stadium: Pittodrie Stadium
Stadium Address: Pittodrie Street, Aberdeen AB24 5QH
League:  Scottish Premier League (Clydesdale Bank Premier League)

History:
The current Aberdeen FC was born out of the merger of three city clubs; Aberdeen, Victoria United and Orion. A public meeting on March 20, 1903 was attended by more than 1,600 citizens, and on that date the amalgamation issue was discussed and given the go-ahead. On April 14 that same year the merger was made official and Aberdeen Football Club was born.

The merger allowed Aberdeen (wearing an all-white kit) to seriously entertain thoughts of joining the Scottish football league, but had to settle with spending its inaugural season in the Northern League having narrowly failed to gain admission to the First Division.

Founded: 1888
Nickname: The Bhoys
Stadium: Celtic Park
Stadium Address: Glasgow G40 3RE
League:  Scottish Premier League (Clydesdale Bank Premier League)

History:
Celtic Football Club was formally constituted at a meeting in St. Mary's church hall in East Rose Street (now Forbes Street), Calton, Glasgow, by Marist Brother Walfrid on November 6, 1887 with the purpose stated in the official club records as "being to alleviate poverty in Glasgow's East End parishes". The charity established by Brother Walfrid was named 'The Poor Children's Dinner Table'. Walfrid's move to establish the club as a means of fund raising was largely inspired by the example of Hibernian F.C. who were formed out of the immigrant Irish population a few years earlier in Edinburgh. Walfrid's own suggestion of the name 'Celtic' (pronounced Seltic), was intended to reflect the club's Irish and Scottish roots, and was adopted at the same meeting.

On May 28, 1888 Celtic played their first official match against Rangers and won 5-2 in what was described as a "friendly encounter".

Web site: http://www.hibernianfc.co.uk
Founded: 1875
Nickname: Hi-bees'
Stadium: Easter Road Stadium
Stadium Address: Albion Place, Edinburgh EH7 5QG
League:  Scottish Premier League (Clydesdale Bank Premier League)

History:
The club was founded in 1875 by Irish born football enthusiasts, and currently plays at the Easter Road ground in Leith. Hibernian originally played at a ground near the Meadows, in the south of Edinburgh's Old Town but moved to Easter Road in the 1880s. They were the first major club in Scotland formed out of the immigrant Irish Catholic population (hence the name, from Hibernia, the Latin name for Ireland). As the first such team, their example led to the creation of Dundee Hibernian (now Dundee United) and Celtic, who when they were formed were nearly called Glasgow Hibernian. Their position as the principal Catholic football club in the country was usurped in 1888 by the growth of Celtic. The club is seen as being less of a Catholic institution now than it was in the past, and geography rather than religion is the primary reason that association fans support the team (Hibernian being the club for East Edinburgh).
