Where did it originate and what does it mean or refer to?
Thanks.

I think it is because their creast looks like a Jam Tart and that changed into Jambos. I could be wrong.

Their crest:http://www.european-football-statistics.co.uk/logo/p-y/sco/sco-heart-of-midlothian.gif
looks like a jam tart and the nickname jam tarts changed into Jambos thanks to their strange freaky accent.

Use the ********ing search function for the last time some idiot who can't use Google asked this question, i.e. a couple of weeks ago.
I'm surprised this thread isn't locked already as it's a clear duplicate.

It goes back to the days when 'flamboyant' forward Justin Fashanu played for the club. You may recall the following nursery rhyme from your childhood:
The Queen of Hearts made Jam Tarts
on a summer day
A greedy, fat Lithuanian banker stole those tarts
and Georgie ran away.
I'll get my coat.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to LesO'lafatselik again.
