Record streak?

[Boyle89]

Can any stat fanatic tell me what the record for scoring in consecutive matches is?
Cummings on 5 in a row is he getting close?

Think O'Connor got to about 10 or 11 or am I imagining that?

[Carheenlea]

Trig will be dealing with this query as we speak :agree: :greengrin

[Makaveli]

According to this: http://www.espnfc.com/scotland/news/2002/0408/20020408dufcsvhfcsrep.htm (http://www.espnfc.com/scotland/news/2002/0408/20020408dufcsvhfcsrep.html)...

O'Connor was the first to get to five since Gordon Rae (Rae in 1982, O'Connor in 2002). Joe Baker got to ten.

I think maybe O'Connor did something else like seven consecutive away games? Dunno. [edit - can't find anything on that one so probably not.]

[gorgie greens]

Sure Willie Irvine got a few on the bounce that year he was on fire

Gordon Rae scored 5 in 5?!? :confused:

Akpo Sodje went on a right scoring run too IIRC

I honestly thought it was more than that.

I bow to the superior statty nerdiness of you all!

He scored in four straight matches towards the end of the 2010/11 season.

Leigh Griffiths scored in five consecutive matches on two occasions during the 2012/13 season.

[Hiber-nation]

Alan Gordon scored 8 goals in 5 consecutive games http://www.fitbastats.com/hibs/player_games.php?playerid=6210&page=3

Jimmy O'Rourke scored 9 in 5 consecutive games including a cup game. http://www.fitbastats.com/hibs/player_games.php?playerid=6157&page=1

As far as I can see, GOC & Deeks never scored in 5 on the bounce so Jason is in good company :wink:

:not worth

:aok: I missed that as I'm getting my information from Soccerbase and the games against Dundee Utd and Dundee in that sequence are separated by a Scotland appearance so it looked as if he only scored in five consecutive matches, unless you look carefully.

Good spot.

[Hiber-nation]

O'Connor scored in five straight matches in 2001/02.

Missed that...well spotted!

[Eyrie]

Ally MacLeod scored in nine consecutive games (http://www.fitbastats.com/hibs/player_games.php?playerid=6225&page=5) back in 77/78.

[Hiber-nation]

Joe Baker....20 goals in 10 consecutive games :not worth

Sure Riordan got 7 or 8 in 2005 maybe?

[lord bunberry]

Gordon Rae scored 5 in 5?!? :confused:

He started off as a striker

[Keith_M]

He also scored a fair number after switching to defence, including a scorcher in a game against Rangers with George Best in our side.

I suspect that could be a record for Scotland never mind Hibs!

[HibbyAndy]

O'Connor scored in five straight matches in 2001/02.


Pretty certain it was more than that..I thought 7 but maybe that was away games.

[Phil MaGlass]

Aye, that was a rasper..

I remember Alex Miller sticking him up front against hearts years later, that didn't work out as well

[Ronniekirk]

What about willie irvine in season 83 /84 when he and Stevie Cowan were a decent partnership that season

[Viva_Palmeiras]

Record streak? Well in terms of records it must have been the most painful - the boy that dived onto the pitch at East End Park - but forgot they'd changed to AstroTurf - that had to hurt!!!

[Sir David Gray]

It was definitely five in a row.

He scored in seven out of eight matches but didn't score in a 1-0 defeat away to Kilmarnock, which was the sixth game in that sequence.

[Purple & Green]

Having researched this back to the start of time, Baker's 10 games in a row was the record that I could find.

However, I've unearthed more information on the second division years 1893-1895 when Hibs scored 175 goals in 36 games so there might be a an increase on 10.
