Hibs executive director Ian Gordon has thanked the fans for their ‘incredible support’ over the past few months. 

Gordon, along with the rest of the board had been heavily criticised by a section of the support after Hibs poor start to the season. 

Some fans were also calling for the head of David Gray but the under-fire head coach managed to turn things around and Hibs went on an unbeaten run of 15-games, 13 in the league are the team are currently third. 

On Sunday the run came to an end at Celtic Park in the quarter-final of the Scottish Cup but more than 7,000 fans made the trip to Glasgow and showed their support throughout the game. 

In a statement published on the club’s website Gordon said:  

We want to thank you for your incredible support. 

“As a club we have been through highs and lows, but this run of form has united us all and created many memorable moments. 

“Standing at Celtic Park, seeing you, hearing you, all 7,000 of you, filled us with pride as it has supporters worldwide. You are a credit to this football club, and we can’t thank you enough for that. 

“We are now entering the latter stages of the campaign in a great position, unbeaten in the league in our last 13 games.  

“This success is due to the hard work of David Gray, the First Team staff, Malky Mackay, and our players. 

“Your continued support is so meaningful to our family, and everyone involved with the Football Club.  

“Thank you again, and let’s continue to push together as we make this a season to remember.” 

Ian Gordon, Executive Director
