Equalled our best ever unbeaten run in 1947-48

[hibsbollah]

Incredible.

[Paul1642]

Anything other than a trip to Parkhead next game and the record should be broken.

This team are immense.

[Tambo]

Incredible record and let's go break it.

[Unseen work]

Unbelievable

Truly outstanding

Well done to everyone at the club

What would Celtic have to play for though?


Might not be a bad thing just to get it over with, a draw/win doesn't sound impossible with the way we are playing now.

Edit... Urgh my math sucks... lol...

[The Spaceman]

Utterly astonishing. A very proud Hibs support backing the team today. This really is a run beyond any of our wildest dreams and I’m so excited for next season with this team and a pre-season under our belt.

My dad was and still is around but he was 5 then so probably wasn't paying attention

Seen the 22 under mcleish and still a very fond memory for me despite a league below. I’m salivating at some of the play just now and all of the components of this club is moving in the right direction finally, good football men controlling the football operation a manager finely balanced a team that is exactly that a TEAM, and a support getting fully behind the club.
When you build a team ethos without the egos it’s always going to be a better productivity, we’ve some huge characters that have stepped in and stepped up and some new positions for players we could mostly all see had something to offer thriving, a manager who found a shape to fit the squad and the positivity about hibs just keeps going for miles at the moment.

Remarkable achievement 👍💚

Should we just consider keeping the squad we have for next season and not bother signing any new players unless we have to

If we kept everyone currently in the squad and didn't sign a single player I would be okay with that

If we go into next season with the squad the same as it is now with the exception of:

McGrath in
New GK to challenge for #1
New striker due to those leaving.

Gayle retirement
Myko end of loan
Kwon end of loan
Holliett (is he retiring)
Bursik end of loan
Vente out for €5 million

Then I would be pretty delighted to be honest. Rudi will be a year older, Manneh will be up to speed, and I have no doubt we would sign a couple of others, especially if we confirm group stage football. Retaining a much of this squad as possible is essential.

[GreenCastle]

Incredible run - let’s keep it going.

Winning is a habit and we definitely have that just now.

Love this team - love the way we play - love the club.

Long may it continue as it’s very special. Well done to the club and management for turning it around let’s finish the season stronger than ever and get 3rd.

Team deserves a sell out in final 5 games - home or away.

Not sure what gear you've got access to, but if you think we're getting 5 million euros for Vente, it must be strong stuff 😂

1947/48 was quite a season, it seems. We'd only lost 3 of our first 12 games, then went on to beat all the teams in the league. This includes some teams that no longer exist, such as Third Lanark, Airdrieonians, and Rangers.

From "The Hibees", J.R.Mackay:

"Hibs made no more slips in the League, and scored four goals at Paisley and Parkhead, and Queens Park did them a good turn by winning at Ibrox. So when Hibs beat Motherwell on April 19th by five goals, they needed just one point from their last game to take the title. The last game was at Dundee, but before it was played Rangers dropped another point, at Motherwell, and so they could no longer catch Hibs. It was just as well, because Hibs lost at Dens Park."

Team for the final games: Farm, Govan, Shaw, Finnigan, Howie, Buchanan, Smith, Combe, Linwood, Turnbull, Reilly.

Hearts split the old firm. They finished 9th but Celtic were 12th.

My Uncle Barney watched the 1948 team and he was there today. He’ll err on the 1948 team side but having spoken to him recently he’s enjoying the current team.

Thats brilliant.

[Northernhibee]

It’s an absolutely sensational achievement.

We looked dead and buried. We were last.

It doesn’t make sense and I’m so glad it’s SDG, Liam Craig, and the rest of the coaching team overseeing it. They seem like great people.

Ha! So, all we needed at Dens was a draw to win the league but lost, and it was all okay? That's how you do it, Jambos!

Tops to your list of former teams in the first paragraph, too.

Did we have a long unbeaten run with McLeish in the old 1st division? Sure I seen a post earlier mentioning it?

Lost a Cup match to Stirling in that run, and it all ended at Boghead against Clydebank. Have it in my head we won every match after that though.
