Season 2004–05 was a relative success for Hibernian as the team performed well in the league finishing third and qualifying for the UEFA Cup in Tony Mowbray’s first season as manager. Hibs lost to league strugglers Dundee United in both cup competitions; 2–1 in a Scottish Cup semi-final and 2–1 after extra time in the League Cup quarter-final. The season also saw the development of a number of promising young players particularly strikers Derek Riordan and Garry O’Connor.
