    Unbeaten at Tynecastle for 22 years

    I was given a Hibs programme from Jan 1977 recently and as i was reading through it i came across an interesting quote: " A magnificent goal by Ally MacLeod gave Hibs victory over hearts, It was a continuation, of a remarkable run of New Year results because Hibs haven't lost the January game at Tynecastle for 22 years".

    Now thats worth singing about never mind 22 games

    Does anyone know when this run ended?

    Think it was 3-2 to them after they stopped yoyoing up and down the from the 1st division, but as always they carefully like to air brush this out of their history.

    Checked that site. If the info is correct, it looks like our next defeat there was on 1/1/86 when we lost 3:1

    Not entirely - there were only 11 January games at the PBS between 1955 and 1986.

    It's us who are spinning our results against that shower. We need to improve our record against them even if their unbeaten records seem to have a huge amount of draws.
