Fans backed the Easter Road side in their return to the top flight last season, with attendances at their highest since the late 1950s.

A fourth place finish and Celtic’s victory in the Scottish Cup final over Motherwell sealed European football for Hibs, and supporters have been snapping up season tickets in all three home stands for the forthcoming campaign.
