A derogatory term for a supporter of Hibernian FC (Football Club). The term originally referred to an abuser of heroin, as in, how the drug was “cooked” on a spoon. The cross reference to Hibernian FC is due to the content of the Irvine Welsh novel Trainspotting (and movie) which was primarily based in and around the Leith area which is home to Hibernian FC.
Spoon burner refers to one who is an intravenous drug abuser. Most intravenous drug abusers will 'cook up' their hit on a spoon using kitchen matches or a zippo lighter before drawing up the mixture into a syringe ready for injection.
