Hibs fans gallery: 35 best fan pictures from this season
It’s also been an emotional season off the pitch, with club owner Ron Gordon passing away last month at the age of 68. He had been receiving treatment for cancer.
On the pitch, Lee Johnson’s first season in charge was always going to a transition and that is how it has turned out. A disappointing exit at the group stage of of the Premier Sports Cup after an administration error was followed by some patchy form in the league.
The return of talisman Martin Boyle gave the Hibs fans a big lift and, despite the departure of Ryan Porteous in January, Johnson’s team are now enjoying their best period of the campaign so far in terms of results and performances. The race for third place is now very much on. There is are four more games to go before the split and another five matches after that for Johnson’s men to chase down Aberdeen and Hearts.
Here is a selection of Hibs fans pictures from the season so far.
