It’s a record that speaks to the durability of this Hibs team. A 17-game stretch that puts the class of season 2024-25 in some extremely exalted company.
Nobody is pretending that equalling a 77-year-old club record for unbeaten league games puts David Gray’s team on a par with the title winners of 1948, back when the Famous Five were building their reputations as all-time greats. Even to suggest as much would be akin to heresy in the eyes of most supporters.
But the fans who applauded their heroes at the end of Sunday’s 4-0 thrashing of Dundee, the biggest league win of the season for Gray’s side, know that they’re witnessing something special. A team who refuse to lose. A group of players who currently sit three points - and a whole hatful of goals - ahead of their nearest challenges for third place.
As the Scottish Premiership breaks before resuming post-split hostilities, we take a look back at every single game in this record series. Some have been more memorable than others. Each has been an important building block in the construction of something special.
17. Hibs 4 Dundee 0 - Sunday, April 13
History is made as goals from Rocky Bushiri, Kieron Bowie (2) and Dwight Gayle saw off a struggling Dundee side on a sunny afternoon at Easter Road. Gray's men played with a sense of swagger as they matched a club record set by the title-winning side of 1948. They're in rarefied company. | SNS Group
