At the end of WW1 the SFA were rather tardy in restarting Div2 so a number of clubs protested; one being Dundee Hibernian. The SFA were forced to relent and Div2 started up again in season 1921-22.

That season also saw the introduction of automatic promotion/relegation. Once again, Dundee Hibs were strong campaigners.

Ironically Dundee Hibs finished second bottom of Div2 in 1921-22 and became one of the first teams to be automatically relegated.

During their non-league 'sabatical' they changed their constitution, and their to Dundee United.
